To begin with this is not a bashing post. This is the true outpourings of a loyal fan who still roots for the show irrespective of its outcome. It is time we were awake to the reality check steering clear of favouritism and bias. As an avid and faithful follower once, reduced to a habitual viewer of the show now I would like to to set my priorities right. Gone are the days when we were delivered of a delightful package and we lapped it up with love and adoration. The magic created by the classic approach,unique treatment, excellent ensemble cast, wonderful aesthetics, technical finesse, good creative team made the show one of its kind and got us addicted to it. We showered our adulation and support abundantly and made it immensely popular. There was a solid story and characters and events were woven around it and thereby flowing together seamlessly. The classic tale of the eternal love left us craving for more and the heartache, trials and tribulations the lovers went through touched our hearts and provided the right emotional quotient. With the shift in PH the story too shifted gears fully deviating from novel, started to travel along the beaten track thus making way for the conventional 'no story-only tracks and episodes approach'. We too accepted, made a shift and got along as best one can. We never shifted our loyalties, still continue to support despite the crap we are served with. What we are given in return are clichd approach, lack of creative imagination, illogical tracks, character butchery, fabricated drama etc. Show suffers at the hands of unskilled technical crew(below par writing, direction, camera work,editing, art etc). The two core aspects of the show - intense epic love saga and impeccable jodi of samud are lost , hence the show losing its core audience as well. The leading characters once proclaimed to be soulmates are even lifeless now. Both the current scheme of things and the loyal fans are getting desperate now. Where do we, the true,loyal viewers of the show who remain glued to the show from its inception till date and give our unconditional love and support stand in this mess? Our interest and emotional attachment are rapidly waning. Our insistent demands for the betterment of the show are never met. For long the faithful fans have been waiting in vain for the unconvincing, insipid tracks and storyline to end and they slowly tend to dissociate themselves. The news of the show ending once crushed us to read is creating only minor impact now. The hope for revival of the lost charm, originality and excellence of the show is out of sight. It is trp-driven rather than content-driven. There is nothing in store for hardcore fans to be inspired and to give constant support and appreciation. Being loyalists we have already exhausted ourselves by investing a fair amount of mental and physical energy, valuable time and are deprived of mental reasoning at times. It's about time we set our priorities and loyalty right and regained our footing. This show may never leave us or vice versa. The best way to deal with it would be to manage it on a superficial level (with no hope, expectations, emotional connect and no in-depth analysis, reviews, discussion) and to be immune against the absurdities of the show. Instead of prolonging the show with such mindless and unrealistic tracks in place of a good story they can give a good adieu to this epic show! The only factor still binding the loyal audience and the show together is its hero with his sincerity and dedication. Let's convey our heartfelt wishes to him for his future endeavours. How many of you, along with me want to see him on big screen?
