Flawed Characterization and Storyline Is Why We Can't Connect

I was baffled as to how can one even think that Kam..la and Paa...khi are positive characters; a very twisted concept of good they have. I actually fear for the people who think this way. Not only is the portrayal of these two ladies unrealistic, they are extremely unhealthy. They have even taken altruism to the extent of it seeming pathological. In their desire to maintain her so called "goodypants" portrayal and the future plot as it seems, they have made Paa..khi spit meaningless dialogues and produce scenes to support the planned story without letting it grow out of her as a character. Actually, they have been handling every other character similarly.

What I see is that the writers, creatives, and directors just did not FEEL the characters. They just WANT their characters to say and do things that lead to these turning points or twist as you may call it. I doubt that they even have a vision of the storyline in mind. They seem to just be squeezing the storyline in between these so called twists. They don't seem to be thinking from the p.o.v of the characters. "What Raghav would do in this situation?", for instance. They have opted for clich's, dramatization, and standardized and repetitive dialogues and scenes. It is sad that some characters are built and shaped well at the beginning but then lacerated ruthlessly to satisfy ridiculous twist created solely to gain trps. They lost whatever vision they had. Everything; the characterization, story, editing, and acting (certain actors and in certain scenes) are choppy. The plot is supposed to be expressed through solid and dimensional characters, but with looks of the mess of the end product we're getting this past weeks, one can only imagine the process of creation to be the same. Not only Raghav is lost but the team too.

I feel that maybe the creatives didn't have a strong concept of the characters to begin with. Perhaps they bit off more than they can chew. What they show doesn't match the message they expect to get across. Why so obsessed to make Kam..la God when she can't even be a human being much less a good one. First love yourself, and then your family and friends, after that you can love the whole world for all I care. Show circumstances pushing her away from Kalpi (not forced) instead of her so obviously being partial to her to the extent of being angry that she is snatching Paa...khi's happiness. Not only she FORGETS that her daughter is drowning, her explanation for letting Kalpi drown is sick! In many countries, the mother can be charged under criminal negligence. It is funny how they wanted to portray a Godlike character through Kam..la but ended up demonizing her. Paa...khi on the other hand just does and says things that don't even project her character. I don't even know what her personality is. Only we are saying that Paa...khi is innocent or she is not innocent, she is smart, they are showing neither and are just playing it safe. Only thing I see is that she's histrionic just like Kam..la. Someone please explain her personality if it is even existent.

I think they might have wanted to portray the complexity of the relationships and situation but failed miserably? If the writers are unable draw out a solid and convincing characterization of the characters, the directors wouldn't be able to bring it out on screen and the same goes to the actors who will only be portraying caricatures.

It is quite obvious that they are just trying to highlight certain aspects of the characters with exaggerated and out of place dialogues. The team thinks that they can just get their point across with loads and loads of ornate dialogues without the appropriate scenes to support it. Take Kam..la for instance; her behavior is clearly biased to Kalpi, and then she just has to shed some tears and say "How can I choose between my both daughters Deva" and we're supposed to feel sympathy for her? And, what can I say about Paa...khi's character? It's a cheat, simple as that. How convenient that she's unaware of what happens around her, so that makes her innocent. First she didn't know about Ragna, and now even after revenge revelation, she still doesn't know. And, I'm irritated of hearing that Shirin doesn't want to do negative roles. All this should have been taken into consideration earlier itself. Alas, yet another proof of the team not having a clear vision of the storyline. At least show her inner conflict between doing what she wants and what is right. Just let her be a grey character, why portray her as an angel. With Raghav, they have chosen to just highlight all his weakness in this new track. People slip, they don't get lost! You want to show him impulsive and hot headed? Fine, at least let him be smart about his revenge.

Even the actors are just buying into the crap they are asked to portray. Either they are so sucked into the characters or are afraid to accept or let sink in that they are portraying these horrifying characters and sending negative message to the viewers. The alternative is scary to entertain.

Instead of blaming and ridiculing audience and fans, they should look at their work and analyze why they are unable to elicit the responses they sought. They are just deluding themselves into thinking that fans are angry because they are so blinded by RAGNA when it is they who are blinded. It is astonishing that they haven't realized that it is them that have failed, not the audience.
