To be honest I first thought of posting on the awards thread,

Phir Maine socha, itne innovative awards and nominations hain sabke

So let everyone get all the awards, ki faraq painda hai!

We have to tackle the extremely serious problem of all the things which are Mahagum from the story

Things which we thought will be significant to the story, but have turned out to be as important as the policemen of Mahakumbh

Here's my list of 5 things which are Mahagum

1. shruti Ulfat as Ganga ma - her role was mahatragedy because she became aaye Gaye Ganga - with hardly any value add to the story

2. The mentioned in passing nagmani, due to which Leela and pops are in the grip of Dansh, well leela aunty walked away very easily, and the mani has been forgotten

3. Katherine and her being a plant of the dushman - we never got the full kahani there - a little back story was certainly needed

4. Thapadiya Mai's unique talent of listening of sounds no one else can - has been forgotten, and is lupt

5. The biggest mahagum is of course shivas amazing brain and all his research, the two sister books and their connection - the beautiful writers who lost the plot, decided to negate the books by bringing in the teesri kitab and then negated that too, by making Bhairavi eat it - not literally, but kind of

There are so many more - unclosed threads, unfinished or unexplained points that the show epitomizes the cliched Bollywood formula of lost in the kumbh k mela - only this time it's the story and plot that is gum in the kumbh mela

So, apne apna Mahagum point batao, let's have some serious masti here!

Very good Mahagum Arshi!! I agree with all of them

For me the way Dadi was killed and the show deteriorated after that is Mahagum😡(why i kept watching it is another Mahagum)

They never clarified how the old lady survived over 24 yrs in that place. 😲

Ek Kahani Anek Rahasya OR Ek kahani aur Ek Hasya(laugh)😉

I dont know about others but i am going to watch the show with less enthusiasm. The show is losing respect. I am not expecting any miracle in remaining 16 episodes.

Yes, you are right, the biggest Mahagum is our own budhdhi and josh for the show.

The remaining 16 episodes are more out of a sense of loyalty and to get a closure, than out of a real excitement to end the story!

And The secret of dadi rip van vinkle was a Mahagum!

Hello Arshi!

The story lost its appeal after BNP's massacre. The seven nagas training hard became one Dansh.
Shiva lost his faculties, Rudra lost in being humane( one can be rational and humane too by being practical). Maya was an utter waste and Leela has no taste. Story - is there any left? I think it has got amnesia," Said the writer to the story, 'Kaun ho tum ? Kaise kho gaye?'." The only good thing as you and Seedhibaat have said it will come to an end soon we can get a closure!!!

Closure? Pfft. It's a mere word when it comes to Mahakumbh. A story that promised so much with young Rudra was lost when we suddenly see an angry and violent Rudra as he gets older. Then out of nowhere he meets this Maya devi who leads on everything to a point where all I'm left thinking is say what? Then come the terrorist Nagas of which only one is really seen properly with the rest being sidekicks without any names or faces. APG ne maari entry aur writer ne maari story ko laat. And just when you think that finally the secrets, the questions, the theory, the rationale, everything is finally going to be explained, the all to amazing Ganga maiyya story comes into play. Not that I mind a story on Ganga, but when the story was about Amrit and Vish, it should have stayed that way.

With 15 episodes left to go, what can be said except shame on me for ever thinking that the writers of Ek Hasina Thi and Main Naa Bhoolungi had gone cuckoo. The real cuckoo is here. Not there.

Mahagum ...

Why Garudas' not using their daivya shakti . Where are their super natural powers ?

Changing the story track from rahasya to spreading social message .

Where is Shiva's library with all technical devices ?

I feel like pulling my hair, the more I try to recall a story.

Still trying to guess what on earth happened to **that** show that we all used to watch???? There is some "System Error; 404 sort of problem here..."

Maybe they ran out of cash to pay the writers, so they are getting rubbish from the writers...😳

Maybe they paid upfront advance to the VFX guys and are now desperately trying to use it all up even if it makes no sense.😛

Maybe there is some copyright issue with the original story (a la Phir Se) and they cannot shoot that any more...😊

Maybe Mr Babbal has some other business problems or short-term memory loss or both!!😉

Maybe they are actually hoping to use the story for a second season????!!!!!!!!😲

Maybe this is a "Hindutva tax" that all TV serials have to pay???!!🤢

Maybe sets/props they need to shoot the real story are not ready, so they are just treading water.🥱

Maybe that young girl who appeared last night is Mr. Babbal's best friend's daughter, and desperately wanted to be on the show, come what may??!!😆

Maybe...

I'll be back later, guys. Feel free to add to the list of Maybe's...😃

@happy I cant even add a " Maybe" for the son slapping his wife scene. What to do . All other scenes there was " Maybe" but that scene I simply couldn't take it.

Problem was 2 fold. First was the son slapping. Second was neither Shiva nor Mai corrected it. It was the bigger sin.

Where is the Shiva who refused to barter between Maya and Saraswati Kund and where is the Mai who gave advice to rudra that " Reason for which Maya went away she will come back for the same"

What is happening and why is happening or Maybe this was what they meant by the line " Aayega Amrit jeetaga vish"

Because yesterday Shiva's and Mai's behavior only pointed to one thing. They are still in the clutches of Vish.
