My Indian soap education is a total blank from 2008 - till IPK happened, even after that it was restricted to SNS, EHM, Buddy Project, CC n now RR.. lol so no wonder i thought it to be absurd.. In Ekta era of course bigamy was the in thing n lol every hero n heroin had 2-3-4 marriages at the same time n so many tangles that u forgot who was married to whom n whose kid was whose! 😆 i really thought we have moved out of them now lol.. cz fidelity and trust, monogamy r vital in the last set of soaps i watched n anything else was considered taboo...

anyway its a really cool idea to keep him for Nandini!! wow! that would be awesome character growth for the Nalayak too cz the girl is gonna be found pregnant and abandoned from what i know of the audition videos..

yup of course the revenge is from her side.. at least for now..,at a latter date when Rudra is completely in love with Paro and Laila becomes the reason Paro is harmed in some way or is the reason he loses her then we might see revenge from his side. but that is a long way off...

PS: last line i am assuming is based on the SBS last one? haven't watched it yet.. as i don't watch spoiler scenes till episode airs. but i totally get what u r telling! She pretending n him not really doing is fine by me of course! cz after all fidelity to Paro should come from his mind not Laila's! 😆
I know the TM n some have an issue, i personally don't! I just want him to lay off her once he marries Paro 😳


This one was originally supposed to be Sanjay Leela bhansalis show...not any longer!
My SIL watches and she said it's too absurd for words that the one true vamp is the DIL in the FLs house and whenever anything bad happens she cries buckets and no one suspects her!
Ekta soaps were inspired by The bold and the beautiful meets kumbh mele me bichde Bhai...anything could happen...most prevalent was babies getting exchanged and parents finding out years later usually after one of the numerous leaps after which everyone looks a lot younger than before😆.

Oh auditions are on for nandini..? So she will come in the show...sometimes they just mention names and forget! But of course here they have shown her as a child also!

No..last line was my prediction based on her reaction after the trip fall and hold scene! SBS Video I did see but no idea if she is faking!

CVs folly is to expect us to find Rudra's sexual advances towards Paro as "hot". They want us to forget all the events leading up to the point and take the hot scenes in a vacuum and find it extremely titillating.

I find it titillating alright and get inspired to fire another hot Fanfiction. The truth however, is that Rudra is taking advantage of both girls. Laila, because she has made herself too easily available for him. She probably suffers from low self-esteem or insecurity because of the way society has cast her aside as a fallen woman. Paro, because he is taking liberties with her without her permission.

I'd be happy watch this love triangle, and see how each participant seethes with self-righteous fury. It will be such a treat to see Rudra conflicted over his physical need for Laila and his guilt every time he sees the wholesomeness of Paro.
It will be a treat to see Laila burn with jealousy, yet, give in to Rudra because she is too afraid to lose him.
It will be a treat to watch Paro feel attracted to Rudra, despite herself, fully knowing his affair with Laila.

There can be so many layers of build up and emotions. But, we will be given some black n white fare, Laila bad, Paro good, Rudra soon to become hero...and good.


i want to add to this what smriti mentioned may not gather trps , i agree the regular tried and tested formula will lead to people tuning the show at that time on TV , because the competition for a 8'0 show is mostly the other 8'oclock shows that are aired

But here is why i feel a new story line or an out of the regular show is important


Okay first of all the revenue model of these shows are not entirely trp based , trp is just an indicator of the total viewership on TV , if they go by the regular tested formula yes they can get the regular audience to watch the show , but every other form of revenue whether advertisement , or rights for companies like netflixs to sell the series (may not be common with Indian shows but we are going there -cos of the amount of internet viewership)

Now this is dependant on viewers like us , who would want to watch the show on internet , or later as a series .Here is why i feel it is important to experiment , cos this show anyway cannot gather the regular saas bahu audience (trps are not good) but it has the potential to increase popularity ,IPK even when the trps were not that good was one of the highest paid AD slots cos of its popularirty more outside india popularity.

in short they have two options

1. try to gather trps by going the regular way 1 vamp 1 sati savitri 1 dashing hero-cant work because regular audience has better saas bahu options

2.otherwise concentrate on the story , write a catchy story make the show popular , increase the bargaining power by the popularity oversees or india

i go with the latter

If you all write such long, interesting posts and then quote each other infinite times, how am I to read all the posts?

I'm unhappy with the way character of Laila has been written so far. I'd like to see a more human side to her, show her betrayal, her disappointment and all of that culminating into anger and jealousy.

In an ideal world Rudra owes Laila an explanation. But Rudra is neither ideal nor is this a real world. In fact it would look out of character for him to suddenly explain himself to Laila.

I think the scenes where Rudra was just talking to her and where he ate at her place were geared towards showing her as not just someone he slept with over the years! Because earlier it was depicted as totally physical!

He doesn't owe her an explanation from his POV as he has never made any promises but from her POV she will feel that he does..because he claimed that no woman can make him commit and he hates all beautiful women and here he js marrying one all of a sudden!

If she tries to create problems during the marriage rituals Mohini might come to know about her is be may tell her to prevent that!

Otherwise it would be as you say and she will then be totally negative!

It's too harsh to say Rudra abusive Paro I know in the first week when he killed her husband Rudra went too overboard with his manhandling behavior with all the dragging, pushing and pulling but then his behavior justified because sees her as a criminal only then but other than that Rudra has always been very caring and protective towards Paro.
