Shiva is acting worse than a toddler. What is his problem? Mental health, memory loss, brain damage, lost cognitive development. Even toddlers these days don’t compare and contrast and throw tantrums.

To see a 30+ grown up man doing all this is just sickening. It is not comedy but crass. When Shiva has so many problems including suicidal tendencies and eloping with tje girl, why is treatment and therapy not an option, instead Bhabima and the writers agreed to get him married in this state. What is this BACKWARD ASS thinking that marriage will solve his desires🙄

I know this is acting, KD is all for it but can’t he say something about toning down Shiva because the core characteristics of the character is completely gone. Even if Shiva’s memory is back, not many are going to relate to him including the TRP audience. For once I cannot relate to him and secondly how is Shiva not being married is a greater pain than what Raavi is going through. They have never shown proper redemption for him every time he makes a huge mistake , they make him say a mere sorry as a matter fact because according to the writers Raavi doesn’t deserve it,

At the end of the day everyone will relate to Raavi’s pain more than any other character. The girl is going through humiliation, abuse, rudeness, on a daily basis from Suman, Shuva, Dhara, Gautam, Rishita, now Prerna too. How much ever writers try to demean and devalue Raavi, most of them are sympathetic towards her than anyone else in the show.

I think it’s partly Shinys poor acting but yes, Dhara has always treated Raavi poorly. She has always taken her for granted, made her feel small, invalidated her feelings and knowing the influence she has on Ravi, always abused it. There is a stark difference in how Dhara treats Rishita, Swetha and Raavi.

I mean Rishita has physically abused her, Swetha has been the reason her whole family ripped apart, yet Gaumbi only finds it rude when Raavi disrespects shara.

The difference in treatment is certainly obvious. The whole family is quite openly dismissive towards Raavi's feelings and suffering. Everyone including Krish, who is younger than her, (maybe with the exception of Dev?) has been rude to her and insulted her. None of the other daughters-in-law are or would be treated that way.

Had Dhara been in Raavi's situation things would have played out very differently. The scenes would have been emotional not comedic. Everyone would be busy feeling sorry for her and doing their upmost to stop Gautam from even thinking about another woman.

It's sad they don't realise how much of a mess they have made of things. The family's bias is completely out in the open but still supposed to be ignored by the audience.

Why should Raavi remarry? What if he turns out to be a douchebag like Shiva? Why is marriage the ultimate solution for women? Why can’t they show a single mom raising her child successfully. Even better, they can show Raavi walking away with Mitthu with her head held high and the writers don’t even have to show her.
Kandyas can happily live under Bhabima’s cult with brothers marrying all of Bhabima’s enemies - Shweta, Arushi and not sure which vamp is next in line.

Even I don't want any douchebag for raavi. She deserves khusiyaan. Whatever she is happy .she can do . She can be independent maybe open her own company. I m ok.

Krish got divorced from Shweta in Tatkal but they have not shown Prerna’s divorce, not even mentioned anywhere.

Shiva has been promised that his marriage with Arushi will happen and the girl is not backing down eithee , knowing fully well his divorce with Raavi has not happened that she could be breaking the law along with Shiva.. If their marriage happens, Raavi can file a case against both Shiva, Arushi and enabler Dhara Bhabima. There is a likely chance all 3 can go to jail,

Why are they showing only 1 divorce happening and not the other 2? What sasta nasha is this? Are they justifying yet again that breaking the law is fine? 😕

Is it bad that at this point I almost want Shiva and Arushi's marriage to happen just so Raavi can file a police case against them and move on with her life.

She needs to start thinking about her child and prioritising him over others who don't even care about her. Her life has been on hold for so many years but she can finally start living for herself (and her son).

Why be bound to people who don't and won't respect you or treat you right. That's the only way she can regain her self-worth and subsequently get her self-confidence and self-respect back. It isn't possible with the kind of environment or people in that house.

To me it looked like he was happier thinking ravi was married to dev and thr was no chance of her to be with him..🤪..

I honestly don't know what Shiva is thinking (if he even is). It isn't a case of not agreeing with him but I genuinely don't understand what is going on in his head.

The writing is so bad I have no clue about his point of view and can't even think up of what it could possibly be. His behaviour is just too bizarre for me.

It us the writers and directors fault combined with leadben being a mediocre actor.

It has been the narrative since the beginning that Raavi is never taken seriously, always humiliated and abused by every family member (not going to let go off Dev for what he did at the altar). The writers themselves don’t respect Raavi as a character then how will their otger characters respect her,

If you see everytime, Raavi is the one putting effort to save their marriage and love.
Disha -3rd angle track- Raavi stopped the engagement

IVF/divorce kaand- agreed to Jabariya shaadi proposed by Bhabima but kater told the truth to Shiva

Shuva’s death kaand- Raavi’s faith and belief brought Shuva back when others including Bhabima and Suman fave up but what did the writers they showed Bhabi- Shiva reunion first

Long SM kaand which started in August until Dec when Raavi’s fake abortion happened- Again after the truth was out, Raavi walked out on Shiva, the guy tried once to pacify her but later went and cried on Bhabima’s lap. She went the next day to sort things out in the boxing ring. But what did he do, ended up blaming her for the entire fiasco because she lied.

Now this mental health and memory loss track since January - its been 5 months of utter garbage. Again Raavi is putting the effort to save their marriage

Why is it always Raavi? Why is it always one-sided? 🙄

How will someone feel for Shiva throughout most of these tracks? Many by now have come to the conclusion that Raavi deserves better and she is completely wasting her time and effort in this guy

Funny part is if shiva and ravi were not husband and wife..and shiva didnt have any feelings for ravi ,him feeling bad for ravis divorce was decent..thr is nothing to be disturbed abt it...but if he did have feelings for ravi...then him wondering why he feels bad for her divorce will question those feelings..

These writers r fools..and they destroyed shivi so perfectly that even their bits and pieces are torture to watch..

If i am honest..i would want ravi to take revenge on shiva if this show continues..he is an ashole..make him see hell..let him rot in that hellhole with that witch in law and her sister witch..see him dealing with hell..thassallli

The only way she can take a revenge in a dignified manner is by divorcing him and moving on in her life because he remarried committing bigamy and get full custody of her child and doesn’t allow even visitation rights for him. Anyway Shiva has no bond with Mitthu, so he is not going to lose anything.

Yes I would like to see Gobarwaali taking Bhabima- Devar jodi to task 😆

Even if at the last minute he gets his memory back and gets back with Raavi, its going to look so fake to me.

Ideally I would want Raavi to walk out on him at that point but Choubays Raavi lacks self respect and self love. She will immediately hug him and thank him for coming back in her life and allowing her to breathe🙄🙄

That’s the validation Shiva needs and he will be on to his next kaand and the next girl 😆
