Actually I have been watching this show from day 1. The only episodes I missed were the Mangalagaur 150th episode and the recent RR Esha ones. I always felt Raghav Pallavi bond was pure and full of love and this situation sort of breaks me. Inspite of all his faults, Raghav had 1 good quality and that was his loyalty and faithfulness to Pallavi...right now this has been destroyed. It would have been ok if they had just shown the bond with the ex in the past tense...but somehow not able to connect this fickle RR with the RR who was shown before. So it makes it difficult to watch anymore.
I guess I am a little too emotionally invested in this show. I tried watching only because of Saishi...but it hurts. You are right, it is just a show. I should most probably take a step back for my sanity. I hope the show continues though....and my love to all the people out there who continue to support the show.
