You made me remember those days in KTH forum... haha.. it was fun! We all boycotted Ekta soaps in those days.. or at least most members did say they wouldn't watch Ekta's soaps- I was a teenager with the first crush of my life (Rajeev) and I did it too... didn't watch any Ekta soap... finally broke my 'fast' with Pavitra Rishta...

Yep, for me too it's the same Rajeev leaving KTH thingy. Ekta seems to have learnt from the mistake she made in those days by replacing Rajeev, that is why thinking of bumping off Manav from the show.

Yes Devu I was there. I was not so active at first, but slowly started posting towards the end, and especially in Time Bomb forum. Then I went off IF cos I didn't watch any shows. When I returned, I didn't want to use the old ID cos it revealed my name (I had thoughtlessly made it) so created a new one and joined IF again.

I remember there were many people at that time who were directly in touch with Rajeev... I don't see them active on IF now...

I didn't even know Pavitra Rishta was an Ekta show! In fact I was sure it was NOT an Ekta show cos it started with a P and not a K, and cos concept credit was given to some other production house, so I started watching it! Later I came to know that Ekta has dropped K's and bought the rights from some other production house, but the show is still hers! But by that time, I had started liking the show and the story.

I knew this was Ekta show since I read all the news. i also knew how Ekta wanted 9pm slot on Zee since it KS had become famous on that same time-slot. And her Astrologer had told her that P will be favourable for her. And it was added advantage that it was on /marathi culture.😃Still remember the promo where they showed Ankita in rain(must confess didnt like her much in that promo, i thought Ekta's lead could be much better. She surprised me in the show.😃). They had used Latika's theme for that promo since Slumdog Millionaire had become so famous.

And and and...when Archana's dupatta was flew away to reveal Manav's face, I was hooked. I had loved him as Preet in KDHMD.☺️

Archana used to remind me of Kusum.. honestly speaking. 😆 Especially in that promo, she used to look like that only.

I loved loved loved that promo and the use of Dreams of Fire in it, it was such a fab promo... even the first shot showing Manav and Archana together at the temple in front of Bappa was so damn awesome... all their romantic scenes were so refreshingly different from those in other shows... Ekta had really started the show well...

Oh..even I had loved the promo a lot. it was so beautifully romantic, the way he returns her umbrella. The show was superb in the beginning. No wonder it hit No.1 so soon and stayed there for long. It was so unlike other Ekta shows. The subtle romance, shyness of the newly weds, everything captured so beautifully.

Do you know Diya aur Baati stole ArMan romance scene of looking at each other from under the bed.😡

OMG the leads are sleeping separately? Satyanarayan Pooja wala concept bhi chura liya kya?
