Madhu an excellent post. I cannot believe that this is the first time you have opened one here. You must do so more often.

I am hoping that if Anant's character does not get butchered all is fine with the serial. Anant is aware thru Nimi that the family is looney. There must be a reason for the CV's to show us incomplete Nimi seg during the Kanpur track. He has seen Mishra's family talk during dinner, laugh at each other during dinner and worse of all take phone calls during dinner. I am not sure why he wants to bring Navya into his house of doom when hers is full of laughter and sunshine.

UB and gang have no clue that Navya is as sansakri as them. They think that her being raised in Mumbai have modernized her but little do they know that her thinking is of old values with embracing modernization. I am surprised why they are talking about Navya that way when their younger gen have been raised in Mumbai too. Are they sansakari coz both Mohan and Nimi did not make the mistake of falling in love before marriage.

I think the CV's will surprise us with nice future tracks only coz they have to . They have no choice. They have to worry about dropping TRP's be it 1.94 or 2.33 as shown by another website.

I am hoping for a nice long engagement till the end of college. This way with engagement it will please the older audience and just engagement and no marriage yet will please us, phangirls.

Great Post! More the Musketeers, I would rather call them the 3 Nincompoops. Bua Dadi and Om are most definately the players of this game and CSB is their biggest player. Every desicion by CSB controls the whole Bajpayee family. Although I have full faith in Anant to support Navya throughout everything because I know he is mature and sensible enough to understand that just with both him and navya living together wont be enough for their relationship but also their privacy and their way of living will be a big challenge in that house. I want him to stand up for Navya in every way and understand her situation and more importantly make Bajpayees understand the "nayi soch". I have so many expectations from this delicate track and I hope I am not let down!


thanx for replying Jen😊...@ bold:nincompoop, you bet....if not now, they will turn out to be the biggest idiots in due course of time, when their little games get exposed in front of anant...alas, thats a long time to wait i guess...
@ blue: second that...from now on its anant-the man, not boy...the days of coochie-cooing will be bid adieu soon...he must shoulder the responsibility of introducing navya to the real face of his family and help her adjust to the hostile environment prevailing in that house...
@green: now now, can he do that?? maybe yes, maybe no...but it'll take a lot of time...nimisha's track will come in handy, while trying to instill the nayi soch...maybe they'll realise that nikhil ( the family's choice) isn't good for nimisha...or rama's true nature might be revealed...its possible at that point of time for the bajpais to realise, they had ruined their own children's life...

Madhu, Congrats on your very 1st thread! It was well written and analysed... Hope it'll be the 1st of many...😊...Enjoyed reading everyone else's viewpoints too...


The condescending " I'm older (but not automatically wiser) attitude" adopted by CSB&co is frighteningly real, all too common and I suspect the older generation (if they watch Navya) will find absolutely NOTHING wrong with CSB's decision !!! 😲 ...This attitude disturbs me...IMO, trying to break and re-mould people, be it bahus, children or even a pet against their will/nature/inclination is wrong and very sad... They are planning to systematically break down Navya, a living, breathing human being with feelings, likes and dislikes as part of (for lack of a better term) a social experiment...This is no different from what cults do, isn't it? Sorry if I've offended anyone for using a very strong term...I think it's shocking that CSB and many viewers too think that brainwashing/grooming is somehow OK ...Maintaining relationships need adjustments all around and yes, people need to bend but planning to coldly break people is cruel...We all know that no one is more 'bendy" than Navya...But looks like she's already been set up to fail...

I remember the scene weeks ago when Renu asks Navya if she's sure she wants to get into this constricted atmosphere (where she probably needs to check with 3 people if she can eat butter or jam with her bread)...Poor Navya is all ready to walk into the lion's den blindly believing in Anant and their love to carry her...Being young and optimistic is all very well but I don't know if this 19 yr old fully understands the price she'll need to pay...Is it worth it???🤔

did i tell you?? two statements in your post hit the target...bang on!!!...
@ green: the 'social experiment' thing...dude, you really had me there...second that, hands down..trying to manipulate people according to ones' whims and fancies is to be condemned strongly...and even more disgusting is the fact that, the bajpais want the society to replicate their experiment and poor navya's transformation will be the ultimate result that they have been fancying to achieve...and true, its not different from cults...bajpais sometimes come across as extremists to me...
@bold: older generation will in fact be nodding their head in approval...they are not tuned to seeing the purity of a relationship...you cannot convince them by saying that your relationship with someone is well within the limits...'if u have to do something, do it legally' is their motto...
@ brown and blue: navya will give in to the pressure from the loonies...no doubts there..it is also true that anant will also have to bend down to that very same pressure...he might support her...but they will pretty much travel in the same boat, assuming that anant does not change and also he does not go against his family...
thank you so much for replying Nisha😊...made for a delightful read...

Hey Madhu..congrats on your 1st post dear..it is very well written and very well analysed. Keep posting dear..

LOved reading all the replies, everybody has covered most of it..
I completely agree with Nisha..The attitude of the loonies isreally disppointing..like you want to get your grandson maried not because it will make him happy but because you will be able to gain some more name and fame and set and example in the society..and what example..how you can make a living being a puppet in your house..wow...that is just disgusting...
As Asha..said..even i M not sure how to react..I am losing my excitement, and dont know what to expect anymore..yes Navya will be a winner at the end, as she is the lead..but what kind ofnew message is the CV's going to give by this negative and petty scamming gng all round..is what i fail to understand..the freshness and the charm is disapperaing...
Still I will hold on to see , if CV's surprise me with some good twist and positive thoughts..
Lets see what happens..


@ bold: Something thats scaring me big time...anant just can't be subjected to such ill treatment...he's our best hope...make him a puppet and navya's main support system is cut off...though mohan and sanju chachu might understand navya's plight, all they can provide, is some advice...
@ blue: you know what is the most frustrating part of this whole marriage track ?? the confusion of what the CVs are upto...though we can predict a few stuff, everything comes back to anant...given that his character has never been steady, u really dunno what to expect...i, for one, felt very bad when they suddenly gave this sugar-candy flavor to his character, in the beginning of the show...if they change it again, without any basis, i'll have to hit the CVs...we have CSB, BD and Om bringing up the rear as the negative characters...but i wouldn't put it past the creatives to introduce some grey shades in anant's character, for that dramatic effect...
thanx for replying Urmi😊

Thanks Madhu, that was a nice post... loved reading it.

@All, Nams, TV_princess. Chatis_04 and everyone else... nice take... I sincerely hope that Anant's character doesnt turn spine-less and Navya doesnt turn into a dukhi bahu... that will be the end of nayi soch. But how to handle the 3 biggies ?? hope there are interesting twists and turns and LOTs of romantic AnYa moments...
heres the latest promo link

thanx for ur reply😊
@ bold: navya as a dukhi bahu is exactly what the older generation audience want...and as someone put it very nicely ( i'm extremely sorry, i forgot the name), star plus caters only to the wishes of these audience...
@ blue: why not handle the 3 biggies with a nayi soch?? the marriage is well going to happen...so the 'nayi soch' lost its meaning there...but if there is a chance to revive that tagline, handling the biggies in a new style is a good bet...but i'm not sure if the creatives are capable of such ideas..as for the new promo...there is a lot of hugging and khushi moments in the bajpai household...lets see how long it lasts...

Hey madhu..as it is appy-ritz n ranbir r missing in action last week with just the family talks going on...now if they get Anya married, do u think Udi-baba wud allow her to continue with college? i see a dead end there... maybe deepaks questions that the new promo is showing cud bring out the big answers...for one thing, the three wud never be able to be the same again if navya gets into the looney quila as the bahurani...imagine those beautiful triangular n beary impromptu hugs that these three share both when happy n sad? wud we ever see that again once navya enters central jail?

yes, Anya are the core of the show, but this friendship of appy-ritz n navya was one golden one...the show wud lose half its charm if navya doesnt turn up at college n we dont have the three in action!! imagine appy-ritz coming to meet navya after her marriage at the quila n unable to even talk freely, leave alone hug n their small chatterings??? lets see how much more twisting the cvs do in order to clean up the kanpur mess...lets see if ananth cud change csbs thinking n get navya to college after marriage...

agree...its really been quite a while since we saw the golden trio...and i'm so gonna miss their friendship moments...i already do...just think of this scenario...ritz, appy and ranbir visiting navya after marriage...all these three still enjoying their youth and very much in college, while navya covering her head with pallu and already into the pangs of marriage along with anant...what about anant and ranbir's bromance...no more gyan talks from ranbir either...oh, this is so unfair😒

I still dont gather whether CSB's plan wld work. As far as we know Navya is not modern in anyway... She puts other happiness before her. She would just tolerate what happens at her Sasural, without a word, coz that's Navya. On the otherhand though Anant loves respects the elders, he would standby for what he believes in...

So a lot of surprise is in for Navya viewers...😕


welcome to the forum sifarah😊...and thanx for ur reply😊
@ bold: that option cannot be ruled out...it is possible that CSB's plan might backfire...if navya is well prepared to become a bajpai bahu, CSB will come across as a misjudging idiot...but therein lies his triumph as well, coz navya will not open her mouth...the beauty of the entire plan is, baba has nothing to lose or gain...navya and anant are purely the victims...
@blue: he does...and he fights for what he wants...but he can also act like a dumb head at times...

thanx for replying Esha😊...
@ bold: he might at one point of time...where is the drama without anant losing his confidence?? he will not become darra hua.. that is for sure...even i keep praying that he should not change for the bad...its something i really can't tolerate...but,CVs hardly listen to the prayers of fans, do they??

@Madhu - very nicely written post, thanks Madhu. I am late joining in, hardly spent time here last couple of days...

Madhu, the concerns you and others have raised here are the precise reasons why Navya is slowly becoming unpalatable to me as a show. If all roads lead to the ideal bahu world, then I can't see the point of the nayi soch tagline and promises of a refreshingly different show! If we look at the channel's line-up of shows from 7 pm to 11 pm there's not one non-saas-bahu show! If anyone wants to mention ipkknd then there's news that the leads might be getting hitched in the show soon, so there! OK, I've digressed but my fears for Navya (the show and the character) stem from this background...

My guess is that Anya will get married and she will suffer in silence - will Anant support her - he might if he knows what's going on but don't we all know that (a) Navya will never tell him what's going on behind his back (b) apart from dukhi aatmas no one else will want anant to know the truth and these two can be silenced/are usually silent anyway and (c) unless anant has an independent financial standing he can never truly protect Navya...

Sorry for the pessimistic
outlook but that's the way I see the future and I will be the happiest person if proved wrong here...

@supria - nice to see your post after a long time :-)


@ bold: not quite what it used to be ,right...i was watching " navya's hair getting stuck in anant's shirt button" scene today...memorable scenes and a great start...i was like, " man, they looked so innocent, back then"...why this hurry for marriage?? ...you know what Usha?? i was just wondering...this channel has umpteen saas-bahu shows, all in the rat race for trps...why not have just one show that caters to the niche audience, to people who really appreciate good storytelling and look out for a classy appeal in the show...
@blue: he doesn't have have a degree in his hands...there is the family business, of course...but if he joins his family in office, then he will be kept in dark about happenings in the house...if he has to search for a job outside, then degree problems come to the fore...phew...poor fellow...
a wonderful reply Usha😊...thanx...
