the story.........kasam se to adboot se

THE JOURNEY FROM KASAM SE TO ADBHOOT SE

One day will surfing various television channels my fingers stopped at Zee. Yes, it was 9 pm and Kasam Se was on air. It was supposedly the 2^nd or 3^rd week that show had been on air and I found the show quite interesting. "The trials and tribulations of three sisters." A little aberration from the common saas bahu serials. I never real knew Zee esisted until Kasam Se became a habit.

The sweet and docile elder sister, Bani, clutching her sibling hands firmly and making way to the big bad metropolitan city. Mumbai, the unofficial industrial capital of India, there slow and steady momentum meeting pace with the city life. It was a wonderful track. For me star plus got shadowed. The story had a captivating track. And above all the introduction of the business tycoon Jai Walia. His presence in the small screen heated up the entire atmosphere beyond the capacity of amelioration. Ram Kapoor became the current heartthrob of Indian silver screen. His deep husky masculine voice was enchanting enough to keep you glued to the screen. His persona, his black ensemble, his scarf everything added sophistication and flavor. Characters like Jigyasa and Ranveer added masala to the soap. It was a perfect combination of elegance, story, cast, script….everything in perfect place.

Jai getting infatuated to the middle sister pia, and his proposing marriage when pia was in love with Pushkar added generous twists. Then pias elopement with Banis marriage to Jai leading to the golden era of Kasam Se got the TRPs soaring high, restoring Bani and Jai as "ghar ghar ka kirdar." The ruthless and heartbroken Walia tormenting Bani, with Banis firm stand on getting pia married of her love, the Walia hindering her steps, it was so perfect and envisaging. Zee was nearly the top channel.

The budding scenes of friendship camouflaged with hatred still in their heart made us glued to the 9 pm soap. Bani realizing her love for her husband and Jai steadily becoming polite to Bani. A wonderful mixture of emotions. Jais softening and Banis "ankhon ki baatein"….. steadily Jai realizing the place of Bani in his life. The Roshnis arrival. And blast!!!!! Jealousy envy….a wholesome ingredient of a hindi film. Wonderfully enacted.

With Anus marriage round the corner(which actually brought Jai and Bani closer) Jai and Bani solefully met and within the silent sobs of jealousy Jai made Banis his own giving us the historical 19^th June.

But the golden era gave way to a disastrous track " PR Raaz" utterly rubbish and no basic track. Still the actors made us glued to your seats. Bani's ammagiri surfacing and consequently Jai turning into Buddha. We should have understood then that munna nad munni wouldn't be restored to where they were a normal husband and wife and not a degreeless holmes and scotch owner Buddha. The divorce fiasco alimony, the entry of OCD looney. The grip was loosening. Still the creatives didn't understand. But they hadn't lost their brains completely. They gave us the brilliantly scripted scene where Jai talks to his still to be born baby. Bani lost her baby in the process of saving her husband. We still didn't lose hope. Must say we were optimistic.

Then Dubai with pia showing her true colours and forcing herself on Jai…..and all problems getting resolved between the husband and wife.

We saw a guilty Jai and a over jubilant and cheeky Bani. Pias "nautanki" driving Jai to the edge of insanity. Bani suspecting Jai then punishing herself of suspection such a wonderful husband. Arr I so hated those days.

pia putting up an act and eventually making the truth of the parentage of the child known to everybody soared the TRPs high and her moods to a permanent hibernation. Bani drifted to a temporary coma stage and Jai putting up an act of rudra avatar showing his desire to marry pia. His intention being to cure Bani. Things worked. But now it was OCD looneys turn. Skunky instiagating Bani against Jai. Sahil died in an accident when things had just turned to normal. The burkha man which later turned out to be Jigyasa Karuna and pia in their mission to prove Bani mad. They succeded. They blackmailed Jai. Sent Bani to the asylum, forcing Jai to marry pia. But they weren't successful this time. Jai didn't marry pia restoring our hope of no cross marriages.

The adbhoot guy came into prominence whose dialogues does throws people off guard. Serious, over dramatic, and funny a concotation of all these. Adbhoot sores high rescuing Bani from the asylum tehn taking her to UK and giving her a new name Durga. Instigating Bani against Jai, making him seem like her enemy who took her children from her and married her sister( she IS ignorant of the truth). The comeback to India after 5years

The best thing was we got see was the more of the RD mode and Atharv and Krishna.

But thus turned the glorious Kasam Se to adbhoot se…………..

u r so right about KS that now it is turning into bhoot se and reptile se and don't worry by the time it will be completely bhoot reptile story no one will be left watching this bhoot se and reptile se as destructives have ruined the beautiful love story of JB to highest extent and now also they don't seem to develop any brain cells what else can be expected from brainless destructives.

So true. By the time the Kreatives get their brains in gear and give RK some substantial screen time and dialogue and give us JB moments and less adbhoot and reptile the audience level will be 0 - at least for those loyal KSians who remember the glory that was KS.

The story could have still be made gripping even with ADbhoot in KS...All they need to do is get Bani into action and that is what ppl what to see...

Bani punishing Pia...They can even keep AD but Bani's revenge must be the main focus but alas creatives think that Bani and AD are the same, so what i can tell about their great brains??? 🤢 🤢 🤢

meena, dear i would just love to see bani taking revenge, but i don't think that is gonna happen as now instead of bani's revenge it is going to be revenge of AD against JW and not bani's revenge focused towards 3 witches and if story is gonna focus on love story of AD-DDG that will be more disgusting to watch and that will completely butcher bani/durga character.

Very true - this should have been about Bani not ADbhoot. I realize that Bani needs a mentor for her revenge plan - but AD is not the mentor he is the puppet master and we have seen both JW and BW played as puppets too many times in the past. The leap should have been something new and fresh where JW and BW after suffering for so long should have become empowered by their grief and pain. Instead JW continues to let Pia live in WM and make decisions, eat at the same table - this is the woman who indirectly caused the death of his wife. - I don't get it. But I guess the destructives needed to destroy his character so that they could create misunderstanding between Bani and Jai. As for Bani - in reality it is difficult to change who we are innately and for Bani that is a good decent person. However, her life was destroyed by these people and yet she is still waiting to make a move against them, waiting to catch a glimpse of her children - who supposedly mean so much to her. The destructives in their zeal to develop the character of ADbhooot and fill the screen with Pia have completely destroyed Bani and Jai to the point that they are utterly useless and not even recognizable anymore.

I completely agree wiht you Debolina...that's what it is nowdays Adbhoot Se.....few episodes ago it was Pia Se or Reptile Se and now....they killed JW completely, I don't think Ekta's therapy of bringing dead to life again won't work for JW the way he's been destroyed. And Bani is almost dead. We crossed our fingers to see what and they show us what.....we wanted a cool blooded Bani who will take full revenge on Pia....but instead we get a still confused Bani looking what Adbhoot does....it's getting sickening....

I remember, when the main havoc was going on, they show a promo of Bani attacking Jai and Pia with a Trishul and AD holding it...we expected that AD will be Bani's support.. but he turns out to be a negative phsyco who's ambition is to destroy JW and BW. He doesn't care a bit of Durga just wants to use her. And he's doing all the revenge work and Bani is holding his tail .....the promo should have been like this.

AD coming with guns in one hand to kill JW, he's got Dia on his other hand who'd protecting Pia under her pallo and a confused and emotionless Bani watching from a distance how AD shotss...

sorry if i've offended anyone's personal feelings and to the Ronit fans, I supposed to be a big fan of his, to me RR was just after RK, but I don't like Mr Undekha, Unjana, Adbhoot, Unokha, Aparajeet Dev a bit...sorry again for being tough
