First generation stories had GLARING loopholes and horrible twists.. Manav-Archana the eternal insaaniyat ke devtas got divorced for someone else's bhalaai, then they decided to give away their own baby to someone else, Varsha-Savita had psychiatrist issues, handled very badly. Worst was Vandita's rape track- she was shown to marry the guy who tried to rape her and was abused later,her story was later left uncomplete when the first 20 year leap took place, Satish, Vaishali's story was left incomplete, so many other things happened bcos of which the viewers were so pissed off that we were PRAYING for Sushant-Ankita to leave the show.. Sushant is one of the rare celebrities who had such a smooth walk out from PR bcos his fans were RELIEVED that he was quitting PR.. there were no petitions to Ekta, no one sent mails anywhere, no one asked him to stay back..THIS much his fans were fed up of the show.
I am not saying PR was a bad show or the first generation story was worse than second generation.. if that had been so then I wud have not watched the show at all... what I am trying to say is that every generation story has had a lot of points when the story was good and interesting and many points where the show has SUCKED.. it's not like Ekta deliberately made a good story for first and third generation and a bad one for the second generation... this assumption itself is RIDICULOUS to say the least.. she is a BUSINESSWOMAN, she would want her serial to do well, she is putting her own MONEY in the show, why would she want to hurt the show by deliberately giving a bad story to one generation? I have read posts saying she had vendettas and agendas against some actors and hence a bad story was deliberately made for them.. wah.. what a style to take badla.. wouldn't it just be easier to throw the actors out of the show rather than ruin your own show and ALSO pay such high amounts per day basis to these same actors? Who takes revenge this way? Gah!
The simple fact is Ekta has twisted writers who can write good stuff and have proved it time and again, but at many times they resort to the most pathetic and illogical twists cos at the end of the day this is what helps the show sell! There is nothing like one generation is favoured more and one generation's story was bad! You say third generation has been favoured more- simple question- WHY HAS THE SERIAL BEEN SHIFTED TO 6.30 PM SLOT THEN?
The simple reason for this question- Ekta is a businesswoman. She needs a prime time slot to help her new show do well hence opted to get Pavitra Rishta shifted to an evening slot. Ekta is the last person who resorts to silly favouritism and politics of 'make the story bad for this generation and good for this generation'. She is a businesswoman, her MONEY goes in this show. When a show runs out of steam or TRP's drop, she takes a leap- she has done it in EVERY of her past shows. When her females lead want to quit, she will do ANYTHING to make them stay, male leads walking out doesn't affect her that much.
All fans feel that their favourites are always the worst treated but come on, just analyse it a little and think practically- no one likes to ruin a perfectly running profit giving show, certainly NOT the producer of the show.
PS: Also I find it weird how much Ekta is cursed all the time by fans of the actors that too when she hasn't done something so horrendous to deserve this.. rather she is the one who gave these actors such a good break and bcos of her all of them have secure futures now with loaded bank accounts, fame and fan following.. I am NOT a fan of Ekta at all, but no matter how much crappy her shows get from time to time, I can't refuse it that she is the one who gave these actors a break.. now I can understand if fans of someone like Pulkit Samrat cursed her cos she actually tried to ruin his career, but regarding others I am just 😕
