@ 1st bold:
Gonna disagree Ren. With R being so insecure, and P being so caught up in dealing with M, they could've had them worry about their marriage but not necessarily confess yet. The reason the story played out the way it did was because they had the ILU at the start of the track.
P only got the idea to confess bc nail kaand and Krishna giving her the nudge. Otherwise she was confused, not sure what she was feeling. They could've kept that momentum with her figuring it out for herself instead of having someone tell her.
If they had waited then they could've had both R wondering how to keep P as his wife because he knows he loves her, but he doesn't know she loves him. They could have had P wondering what she felt. That REAL internal fight she had of pyaar v. kartavya would've played out a lot better and made a lot more sense.
CAN YOU IMAGINE THE REAL ANGST.
These feelings of trying to hold on to their marriage still would've been there. It was there even before M came back. But we could have seen them fall in love at a slower pace. We could've had more moments, more feelings, etc. I think the lack of seeing them fall in love more etc, stems from having an early ILU.
@2nd bold: PM that show name LOL. I don't know if I'm remembering the right one. But yes - lack of focus on the lead couple will surely tank a show. There's been a severe lack of focus on leads since M track started. I have theories as to why, but I'm not going to voice them here.
Tbh I'm not sure at which point CVs pivoted from what they wanted to show vs what the audience wanted. Could you tell? Was it the "raghvi" promo episode?
bold : Can you PM me this theory ?Like why I am curious to know why sikku and his team don't realise the importance of lead couple and their scenes. This is the same team which has given the pre marriage scene way above itv standards or I could say it was even good from the now bollywood standards without any vulgarity and cringe factor. So what's change all of sudden
