Hope and me decided we want to be heard as viewers.If we can not stop the divorce we should let them know how disappointed we are with what they show.
Here's what Hope has to say:
"
This post intended for all PRians, All ArMan lovers, All Sushant-Ankita Fans, every person who has every created an ArMan VM, siggie, appreciation thread, FF.........................

Guys, you all read the DishTV news yesterday about the fact that the DIVORCE WILL HAPPEN. Yesterday I was outraged and shocked. TODAY, I am incensed and enraged. Enough is Enough.

This is just PLAIN WRONG for so many reasons:

It is happening for the WRONG REASONS ' they are not shown to be divorcing because of irreconcilable differences. They are shown to be divorcing to fix the problems of an irresponsible immature third party. At someone's whim and fancy. Wrong, Wrong, Wrong!!!

It is the WORST KIND OF MESSAGING ' to our children, to us, to non-Indian viewers.

o What does this say about Indian society, that we are lame-brained or that we are regressive, I am still not sure if which one is the bigger insult to us as a people , as a community, as a society.

o What does this say about God/ Bappa/ Allah, whatever we may call him, that the divine can be impotent in the face of the actions of a mere mortal and that trust in "Him" and intercession to "Him" is futile and so we should not bother. This goes against any religious doctrine and is demoralizing when depicted through characters like Archana and Manav who are supposedly ardent devotees .

o What does this say about the holy sacrament/institution of matrimony ' You can break a SACRED VOW (a commitment by man to God to honour, cherish, protect his wife - taken in front of God's Agni) in order to keep a promise made by one man to another man to accept a responsibility (marked only by the exchange of peda and naryal and not blessed by the sacred AGNI). Is there even a comparison? There is no balance.

o What does this say about a child's irresponsible actions- GO AHEAD. Be irresponsible, be immature you will have to PAY NO PRICE.

It is the biggest disrespect to the WISHES of a LOYAL FAN BASE ' we did not sign up for a ghissa pita formula, we signed up for something unique, something special, to see a lead-pair chemistry that was unparalleled and unrivalled in Indian TV. If we wanted to see a story about friends we would have seen "Do Saaheliyan". If we wanted to see a two wives scenario, we would have caught re-runs of Kasam Se or seen other TV soaps like "Saajan Ghar Jana Hai". NO, we wanted to see ArMan's Pavitra Rishta. Every poll, every post, every forum thread shows this. So going against this would only mean disrespect.

We cannot leave this to:

Manav , Archana, Sav, Dam Baba ' they are fictional characters

PR Creatives ' they are paid employees and will listen to their bosses

We have to FOLLOW THE MONEY... GO to the DECISION MAKERS.... LET BT AND ZEE know our thoughts and dissatisfaction.

We want everyone out there who agrees with us to join us in letting BT and ZEE know our views and TRYING to stop this divorce. You may want to join because you are offended as a fan or you may want to join to make a point about the warped PR social messaging or you may want to join because your a hopeless romantic. I know that I will do it for all 3 reasons.

If the divorce happens then the 'ghat bandhan', the title, the VM's, the Fan Fictions, our threads will all be a reminder of this mockery of a show.

If you want to join us, it is really simple:

1) Click the "LIKE" button below so we know you will be joining us

2) Email (balaji@balajitelefilms.com )

OR
OR
post on Sushant's ,Ankita's IF profiles (Thanks to Nisha)
AND post one of the standard messages below OR your own personal comments
Indian viewers can call as well, # 91-22-4069-8000 for balaji and # 022-24955555 / 24943416 for zeetv (Thanks to Fifi)

3) When you are done, post here to let us know you have made your views known to BT and Zee ' we want every post on this thread to be one that confirms that a view has been communicated to BT or ZEE.

Guys, India is a democracy, this forum is democratic, then let us follow its lead. Let us not remain mute spectators but engaged viewers.

Let our views be known, our outrage be felt and our comments register in a manner that they cannot be fixed or altered by PR Media Folk (unlike TRP's). Remember guys, numbers may be fixed but comments are a different matter.

Let BT and Zee see a VIEWERBASE in ACTION.

For Your Use:

Standard Comments ' Guys, Take Your Pick and Keep Posting for the Next Week so that they GET THE PICTURE

If you are commenting as a fan

1) BT/ZEE 'STOP THIS DIVORCE - We want to see Arman as a couple NOT a COUPLE OF FRIENDS

2) BT/ZEE 'STOP THIS DIVORCE - Do not kill the most epic TV lead pair ever seen and waste this unparalleled chemistry

If you are commenting about the wrongful messaging

1) BT/ZEE 'STOP THIS DIVORCE - You cannot mock Bappa this way. This divorce is an insult to every Bappa devotee who has every hoped for his blessings and his assistance in their struggles

2) BT/ZEE 'STOP THIS DIVORCE - Do not teach our children and our youth that it is acceptable to be irresponsible and immature and suffer no consequence for your actions but expect mature people around you to pay the price

3) BT/ZEE 'STOP THIS DIVORCE ' Do not teach people to disrespect their marriage vows for the sake of a whim. A commitment to one's spouse made before God should only be broken for reasons beyond the couple's control. Shravani's situation can be fixed through other solutions and is not significant enough to destroy working marriages. Do NOT over magnify the situation of these unwed mothers. Other support systems are available to support unwed mothers focus on those.

4) BT/ZEE 'STOP THIS DIVORCE ' Do not misrepresent traditional families as regressive backward imbeciles. Show Mumbai families as what they really are -hardworking, sensible and worldly. Do not misrepresent us. Middle class Indian society is not this regressive. Your track might represent rural remote areas across Indian but not the behaviour of middle class families in a metropolitan city like Mumbai.

Thanks everyone. We hope you will join us................................."

Ok.nisha editing.
Send it to all u like,Taz
A small clarification in the above post:
"o What does this say about God/ Bappa/ Allah, whatever we may call him, that the divine can be impotent in the face of the actions of a mere mortal and that trust in "Him" and intercession to "Him" is futile and so we should not bother. "
The better word is 'powerless' .

Gauri, i am more concerned from a religious point of view that if divorce happens then we should not go to God in prayers...after all, everyone is praying to God to stop it....Why take God's name in vain? Why invoke all those Bappa scenes when divorce will take place?
Also, it is sending a wrong message to viewers that bad behavior is recognized and rewarded whilst good behavior is totally disregarded and trampled on.
Very sad.
Gauri and I hate the word divorce...the day I take that vow, I pray to God i will never ever get divorce...It is not some frivolous thing. It should be taken very seriously.

No doubt...invoking Bappa and then doing opposite is hurting me the most.
