Last night, Kajjal lost her way in the jungles, and was about to be kidnapped by some hoodlums. But I think the gal has a bigger problem: she's lost her way in the world of soaps. When Sony's Kajjal went on air a few months ago, we saas-bahu ODing potatoes heaved a sigh of relief. The serial started out with great promise, much as Jassi had done on the same channel. With an FM radio station set as a backdrop, at last here was a daily soap that would revolve around office workings, gossips and tensions. But even before we could wear our full suits and pinstripes with joy, Kajjal lost her way, and has turned into the same old drama of duplicate characters, kidnaps, murders and household scraps. And these days, one sees everything in the soap except the corporate world. What a pity, here was Kajjal's chance to re-create the Jassi magic, and she blew it. Now only her fav god, Ganu bappa, can save her from being kidnapped. And from extinction.

Thanks, of course were not the only ones that noticed that Kajal lost its chance to re-create the Jassi magic by not focusing on relationships in a corporate setting. Gannu Bhaiya can save the show if the writers take heed to this constructive criticism and gear the show in a different direction.

Maybe MAYBE this article will reach to the brains of shreya productions and they will realize what they are doing, annnnnnnd return it into the original track! Even everyone is saying it, we want the old type of track back. with the office, radio city, the cutetsy kaajjal and dev affair. so what they fell in love, but they can still continue the office stuff along with the DK affairs in the office. but instead they have turneed it into mystery sort of time! hopefully shreya will see this, and it'll knock some sense into them!!!!! 😡

i noe that these script writers keep getting all these unnecessary twists and turns to keep the viewers engaged in the serial and show more phases and chemistry between the leads.. dev and kaju in this case..... but frankly ...dragging this only makes me more adverse to the serial... i mean i noe this is supposed to be a serial abt dev-kaajjal love story sooo if they unite then it means the end of the serial for the script writers... sooo to keep the serial going they keep adding more and more hitches to prevent these two to unite... but these bloody script writers JUST STRETCH THINGS TOOO FARR... I MEAN DOES THE LOVE STORY END WHEN THE TWO PPL GET MARRIED AND BECOME ONE OR SMTHN???!!! TRUE LOVE is when these two ppl go hand in hand meeting all the problems of life TOGETHER!!! IF U FREAKING WANT TO EXTEND THE STORY U CAN DO THAT BY HAVING DEV AND KAJJAL SIDE BY SIDE TOGETHER ON THE JOURNEY OF LIFE!!... like i dont noe...financial hardhsips...kids... business stuff etc etc... which will only help the viewers see a deeper love... AND THAT WILL KEEP THE VIEWERS EVEN MORE ENGAGED IN THE DRAMA... coz it relates to their own- day to day lives!!!!!!!!
IF THEY JUST WANTED TO SEE 2 UNKNOWN PPL MEET EACH BY DESTINY AND FALL IN LOVE AND MARRY...THEY WUD GO AND SEE A MOVIE..SHORT AND SWEET.... THIS IS A FREAKING TV SHOW...AIRED NEARLY EVERYNITE IN BITS AND PIECES.... PLEASE KEEP IT MORE RELEVANT ...STOP DRAGGING AND DRAGGING AND DRAGIING...making it a "ghissi piti" story line.. and MAKING THE VIEWERS RUN AWAY..... now this whole ADI- SIS track is gonna drag on for god noes how looongg!!! (hey..but a good point in this is im gonna get to see the jealous DEV!!)

basically i have taken out soo much "bhadas" written soo much to make a point that A LOVE STORY DOES NOT END AFTER MARRIAGES OR AFTER UNITING.... how the 2 lovers UNITED and TOGETHER face LIFE and OBSTACLES and STAND THE TESTS OF TIME MAKES FOR AN EQUALLY INTERESTING THING TO WATCH .......SO SCRIPT WRITERS... please be more creative and JUST LET DEV-KAAJJAL UNITE ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!!

Sharmi, Apu is saving this serial from going off air. sony's creative heads have nothing Creative to show so they are just hanging there. I think its time for Sony to do a Sequel of JJKN with Mona and Apu. 😆
