For me it ended when the jodi of Sushant Ankita broke up and the character of Archana changed from a good hearted simple girl to a self righteous feminist . I love Hiten but i like to see the same jodis till the end . Hiten did a fab job to resuurect the show but the script writers messed up the character of Archana and the way they wrote Purvi was beyond feminism .

Dear Strega,

I would be happy to oblige, except that by now, I suspect that there are NO 'writers', of whatever calibre or lack thereof, for this benighted mess that passes for a serial. It is my belief that they ask for suggestions from everyone from Ekta Kapoor to the doorman, put the chits in a box, and get someone to close his/her eyes and pick one out every morning.

Anyhow, if it is going to end at least by Dec, good riddance. And as for all those so desperately hoping for an ArVi reunion, I am very happy for them. They deserve that for having kept the faith for so long, despite both these characters having had every attractive quality - and there were many at one time - leached out of them, till they seem like empty husks of their original selves.

Onir can of course go back to Kolkatta, but thanks to his Mishti, the locals would very likely have laid by a stock of stones to greet him with, plus he has lost his career, a minor point that seems, by now, to have slipped the mind of not only his Mishti, but the CVs as well. So I presume he will be reduced to sellling vada pav.

I am butting in but for me the show ended with the four year leap. Archana in her chiffon sarees, mechanic Manav as suited-booted businessman and Savita with her doggy Damu were all too alien in the chawl set up. I too was elated when the idea was first proposed with that promo of Manav looking at the Mumbai skyline but gradually realised that PR's charm was in its simplicity and the lower middle class set up. The final nail in the coffin was the Soham track. I for one craved to see ArMan with their son but was bereft of that as an audience. I would have tolerated it all only if PR cvs would have kept ArMan's family intact. That adorable kid with those pretty little feet was just used as a prop in the show. The show now is just a shadow of its past.

Balika Vadhu started much earlier than Pavitra Rishta but still continues to be interesting due to better handling of tracks by its CVs.

i personally think running a show continuously for 3 to5 years is tuff .as both actors writters directors producer get exhausted and tired its better to work on seasonal format.if ekta adopt seasonal format for pavitra rishta then she get time to think on story more sensibly.concept wise pavitra rishta is excellent as it is more mass appealing one of the best shos of balaji.

I am an active member of the forum but that is more because of the social interation with friends ..

The show pretty much ended for me when both Manav and Archana became rich and when Soham was about to be given for adoption , I just hated the show so much , that was just too much ...

That was the last I was really connected to the show ...

But I love to see Ankita so I keep watching more for her than anything else ...
