Awesome post Jai. 👏
The CVs have killed all the characters personalities. Archana, Manav, now Arjun and Purvi. But I am also hating their treatment of characters like Ovi and Vinay. The CVs haven't done anything to Tej's character, but that's just for now. Who knows, maybe they will assassinate her character as well because they don't spare anyone.
Vinay was a totally sweet and nice guy at the beginning. He was a good friend to Purvi and he genuinely liked her. But to get Arvi together, they made his character do a complete 360. What a pity. I liked Vinay as a confidante to Purvi, especially when she shared her problems with him and he took it in good stride. I wouldn't want anything romantic between them but I would have appreciated it if they were still good friends.
Now to Ovi. Ovi was a sweet, albeit a tiny bit superficial girl when they presented her. She was upbeat and nice. But then, to give a reason for Arjun to belong only to Purvi, they make her now seem possessive, blind in live, and childish. Ovi was nice to Archana after that Ma'am thing and she was nice to Sulo as well. She was okay with waiting for Purvi when they attended the lunch. She didn't come across as snooty or selfish there. I am a huge Arvi fan and I know that Arjun and Purvi belong together, but I don't like to see Ovi as the character she is now. She's Manav and Archana's daughter and she does have some of her parents' traits but she is not a negative person. I feel bad for Shruti because her character is not one most sympathize with and also because there are more twists to come in store for Arvi in which Ovi will most likely be a negative character because of Savita and thus earn the wrath of other Arvi fans.
But Jai you are absolutely right. All the actors are doing a brilliant job with the crap that they get from the CVs. I only hope that the CVs turn things around and make PR a little better like the golden days of PR.
P.S. When the Varsha-Soham track comes, I want to see a better change in Varsha. She was one of my faves in the old PR. I hope she mellowed out with age. I hated her as crazy Varsha but would love it if the old Varsha returned, the one who'd do anything to help her family.
