Ekta and the CV's have succeeded in their plan!
They have made Archana's character so terrible that many of her supporters are now hating her. They wanted this in order to have support for a separation, as well as to have fans and viewers love and support Hiten, and accept him as Manav quickly! Archana is shown as irresponsible and careless, whilst Manav is now being shown as sensible and caring. He is now the hero.
Many have said how much they hate how Ekta deals with children and serious issues, but you have fallen in her trap and will help her to succeed in the continued ruination of PR, her horrible treatment of children and serious issues.
I will say again, I don't blame any of the characters any more for many of their actions. It is all the work of Ekta and her CV's, due to their lack of creativity!
The current Archana is so far from the Archana I knew. She has made mistakes, but there is no way she would have gone against Manav the way she has done in the chawl issue. The old, original, normal Archana would never do that!
Remember she initially supported Manav in the Soham issue with Varsha, though she still wanted Varsha involved. Remember the rooftop scene? She said she would always support Manav.
The CV's constantly do this, especially to the characters Manav, Archana, and Savita. One minute they say one thing, then the first chance they are tested, they break their vow. This latest incarnation of Archana is just one more such occasion. I've reached the stage where I don't care anymore. I don't believe and accept anything about any of the characters.
If Manav and Archana are divorced, how can there be a pavitra rishta between them? If, after the leap, the pavitra rishta is/are to be between the children, then Ekta has taken us all for a ride. She has continued to use and abuse us, and I don't appreciatae being used and abused.
The essence of the original PR, the simplicity of the show, the purity of Arman's relationship (Sushant and Ankita), is dead, so there is no more PR for me. I just check to see how Ekta deals with things and I will check to see how the show ends.
