I am a little confused about how CV's want audience to think about the character of Ovi... With so much of bashing against her, I guess they want us to see Ovi as grey shaded character. But again, I am not convinced with that.

With the introduction of youths in PV, Ovi was shown as someone very pampered and self -centered. She forced Arjun to marry her. But is that reason sufficient enough to portray her character as someone who should not be at the centerstage of the show? Why can't the show be about Arjun Purvi and Ovi?

Let me assure you that my favoritism to the character of Ovi is all because she is the only one that can be found/related in real world.. In reality, people like Arjun and Purvi don't exist. In the early part, it was shown that Ovi forced Arjun to marry her, was insecure even when they got married and then when she got pregnant she behaved carelessly. But that's not the only part that should be noticed. One should also notice the scene where she was thankful to Arjun for making her a part of his life while distributing blankets on the death anniversary of Arjun's mother, the scenes when Ovi started thinking seriously about baby and her relationship with Arjun, the scene where even though she said she won't accept Pari but was concerned for her well being. And my god, even though Arjun-Ovi's baby is dead, still they made baby. Will it be easy for Arjun to leave her?

Either the CV's are developing a terrific plot for the audience or they are as confused as I am. My only concern is that whether its Arjun Purvi or Arjun Ovi at the end, a character like Ovi should not end up as loser because by my POV, she was not wrong all the time in this whole plot of Arjun-Purvi-Ovi.

But still its my POV. I might be wrong

CVS always portrayed her in a negative
light where in actuality she is not one bit negative or grey shaded. She might not donate her baby knowing her sister had a stillborn but she isn't bad. She loved Arjun so she got her by hook or crook.
See if she was all that negative , or grey shades as Cvs want us to believe by now she would kill Purvi.
She might not like all the attention Purvi gets but most of her reaction to situations are exactly what I would have (I would not get drunk and yell at a party) but this is a serial ..
Ovi is much better than Purvi
She is not perfect but she is good , she is flawed but she is nice:)

Prtzy Excellent Post👏

Very insightful and highly intelligent post👏

Ovi's reactions to her circumstances are not abnormal or evil. A lot of people would behave the same as Ovi in her circumstances.
I believe that is what the cvs are trying to portray but at the same time twist it that it is completely wrong behaviour.

We are all on a journey of realising the good inside us through our experiences and that is exactly what Ovi is doing. Ovi makes alternative decisions to what is considered right, yet at the end of the day she ends up showing the true light inside her. She is a good person. Whenever she is shown love she appreciates it and she does not hide the fact that she wants love just like any ordinary person.
Hence, Ovi should also be a main part of the show. She is relate-able.

Some people may be further in their journey where they make wiser decisions. The Cvs are trying to portray Purvi as one of those but she is not. Why? Purvi is self-righteous and lacks humility.. If Purvi did not have that type of attitude towards doing good, she would seem like a really good person in my eyes who makes mistakes like anyone else.

The CVs probably think that the way they're portraying the characters make purvi the good girl and ovi the negative one. The problem is they're going by terribly outdated ideas while doing so, and have only the vaguest outlines for the characters. For example, since purvi is supposed to be a lead she should automatically be sacrificing is the outline--it doesn't matter to them if the sacrifice is needed, wanted or warranted. And Ovi is supposed to be a spoilt brat, so she has attitude and knows waht she wants and sets out to get it. What they don't know is young women of our age have an inherent attitude to them, because of the knowledge that the world is theirs for the taking and they can achieve anything they want if they have the guts and the opportunity to go for it. When the world is changing, you can't have antiquated ideas of good and bad/right and wrong and then wonder why the audience is not getting the point.

For me personally, Ovi is the lead. She's not perfect and honestly, I dont want her or need her to be one. She makes mistakes, she realizes she made them, owns up to them and learns from them. She has an attitude and is selfish--kudos to her for not hurrying up to sacrifice for the sake of being sanskaari and mahaan. I would like my loved ones to be selfish for me and not give me up for the greater good. I would also never give up my loved ones for any reason. If that makes me selfish, so be it. She dresses in both western outfits and indian outfits and that has nothing to do with her being traditional or modern. It's our thinking that makes us one. She's obviously willing to learn traditions and adapt to them, and wears sarees for her baby's naamkaran function and party dresses for a party. Won't even get into discussing purvi because I don't understand her. She's someone's confused and ancient version of a supposedly sanskaari girl who can do no wrong just by the token of having those aforementioned sanskaars. Whatever ideas the CVs have, for me according to their characterization alone, Ovi is the lead.

i have only one thing to say i have seen people like purvi and arjun but not ovi so for me they are the most realistic so i can understand many of the things they do even if i know that its stupidity and will not support them
so for everyone according to there circumstances we see different characters of this soap as realistic we didn't see them doesn't mean they don't exist.

At first, Ovi was a selfish brat in my mind but now she is a normal person, someone who can stand up for herself and knows what she wants, unlike maha Purvi.

Really? Well I would like to meet someone who married someone , loved the other sister, made two sisters pregnant
I would also like to see a woman who gives her baby to someone who she claims to love more than life itself to her sister without her consent
Are you kidding ? You never saw a woman who fought the odds and got her love? She might be labelled as selfish but what Ovi is doing now is completely appropriate . Any person in her position would react like that
I would never accept someone replacing my dead child with my husband's illegitimate baby
I know Ovi isn't great because she isn't as manipulating as Purvi
But at least she knows what she wants
Unlike Purvi

Well you do have men impregnating two sisters, but normally they both don't know that either slept with the guy initially. and you don't have one sister telling the man to sleep with the other and have a baby. and there is No way one sister would give the couple secretly her baby when the other sister baby dies. It just does not happen in real life.
The only thing I know happens, is the man impregnating two sisters. This type of story ends up as a scandal on talks shows like Jerry Springer. It is not passed off as normal, the way Ekta is trying to portray it. Ekta has very unrealistic and twisted sense of story telling.
