Hello all,

The reason why I made this post is because I saw many hate threads for the current ongoing track.

The marriage is yet to happen and everyone here is already predicting it will take saas bahu route. Isn't it too early to make this prediction? Or are we coming to this conclusion based on the countless shows that had a promising start but took the cliched route? I maybe wrong and maybe all of them claiming This-Show-Has-Gone-The-Drain correct. But what is the harm in giving the benefit of doubt?

Revenge, the american show which is the original show too had its ups n downs. Even there Emily married Daniel. But I didn't see many complaining.

Durga wants to take revenge on all those who had wronged Payal. Not just Shaurya and that is possible if she gets into the family. It is easier to destroy your enemy once you get into their inner circle and that is what is happening in the show too. She never wanted to marry Shaurya to redeem him. They never showed Shaurya redeeming either. If they really wanted to go the saas bahu route they could have shown Shaurya having a change of heart for Durga when he saw how she pretended to care for him even when he lay in bed paralysed. But that did not happen. He is still the same kameena he was before.

Durga is not a woman who is out there for revenge alone. She is woman who is capable of harboring emotions beyond vengeance. She has feelings for Dev but not for once did she let that sway from her mission and I have a feeling even if she gives importance to her marriage she will never overlook her mission which is of utmost priority to her now, Dev or no Dev. Or I hope so

As for Dev many are calling him by God knows what names 😆 Initially he was pursuing Payal to get to Nithya. I agree his I-Love-Nithya chants get annoying at times. But if u look at it from his POV how can he immediately react? He is unsure about what happened. Its not easy to doubt your own family or blame them unless you have solid proof. He knows Payal and Nithya can never do something as cheap as what they were accused of but at the same time he does not have any hard proof to convict Shaurya. Shaurya is an arrogant brat and he knows that but is that proof enough to call him a rapist? How can he accuse Shaurya before getting proof? And before that he needs to hear Payal's side of the story. And Payal is in no fit state to speak up. And Nithya who could have answered him is not there. So obviously he is looking out for them. But I do admit at times he gets annoying 😆

Besides none of us wanted her to get married to Shaurya. At the end of it all, DevGa were meant to be together. Also how long will Durga and Sakshi play cat and mouse game? They had to come together in a face off and now they have. It depends on CVs on how they will take it forward from this point.

I may be foolish enough to hope that show will retain its flavor but I want to give it one last try before I decide this is good for nothing. When we are reading a book there will be moments when we feel what route is the story taking but at the end some of them do turn out to be nice and EHT is still mid way through. We have many things to unfold yet. Raima's betrayal, Sakshi's reaction to it, Akash's mystery and biggest of all, they have not yet revealed what happened with the real Durga. It is mentioned she is dead but if that was the case then how come none of her friends knew?

So waiting for this to unfold and the CVs have an opportunity to make EHT one of the most remembered shows or turn it into cliched one.

Chillax.
Marriage is happening.

That is the only way to take revenge. 😆

Why any argument?

What is left to say now?

Of course Dev's ignorance is justified in every way.

Those who want to watch, will watch. Those who will not, will not.

Star Flush shows are known to all. Those who like their style will carry on, those who do not will taper off.

Well I am not saying I wanted this marriage 😆 And if I happen to make one post stating my views when a 100 others are bashing it saying they will quit, am I arguing by putting my point? 😳 And I didn say that was the only way to revenge. But that was one way of getting into the family. Bas. Marriage doesn mean she wont take revenge will she? I guess time will tell and if it does take the route you said it will I wont watch this either but just giving it one more chance.

Relax.
I did not call out on you so you do not need to clarify.

I just responded in general. Sorry. Maybe effect of another discussion.
Of course feel free to give it a chance.

And those who do not, they be free to leave.

All are free to take their decision.

honestly speaking i am not too happy with the wedding track mandy and yeah i would pick dev anyday over shaurya.

one of the reason that ppl are too riled up is this that dev has disappointed everyone and instead of coming across as a simple innocent person he came out more as a slow and dumb person.
If his character would have shown some smartness which he had when he entered as he was trying to find out all the things that has happened in his absence may be ppl would have liked it.

Moreover i really felt this show didn't needed all the usual elements but i guess trp's have forced the cv's to take this route and for this they too share some blame as they literally dragged at many places.

anyway i am ready to give this show one chance coz of 2 reasons--1) i don't have anything else to watch other then yhm and eht on telly-vision these days and lastly i really want to see durga beating sakshi in the game and hopefully it wouldn't be the normal saas bahu drama.

The only problem I have is that the PH lured the audience with promising a particular kind of show and after a few months going back on that promise and making it a usual
cliche show .

it started with showing a strong determined woman with an agenda and a plan to show that she had the guts to bring down the mighty Goenka's and now has made her a weak and sorry image of a woman that cannot seem to do anything without the help of a man.

This misleading of the audience is my reason to be upset.

Still it is everyones right to stay with it or not.

Nice post.
Agreed. I want sakshi-durga face off. They showed lil in marraige track.
But i want to see an open challenge.
How long sakshi alone will win?
What happened to durga's mastermind? Why is she losing?

I fail to understand why people compare the show with the English version ? We are not English. Why are we to take everything western as the best thing to follow ?Besides, Revenge had a complete different subject. It wasn't about rape and the lady wasn't marrying the rapist for sure.

Secondly, the marriage track was too predictable. We are talking about a thriller here. Every second and every minute detail should excite the audience. Where is the excitement ? Rather we were given a cliched track. Marriage is yet to happen ? What else is left btw?

Thirdly, benefit of doubt. To whom ? To our makers ? Name me one show where the benefit of doubt has shown its effect.

No, its not really early to say EHT is no more a thriller. Call it a Saas- Bahu show, Call it comedy, Call it a family drama but no its not a thriller for sure.

With due respect to the TM and other members, every show that deals with social issues must have some social responsibility also. The way Durga made a plan to marry a rapist not an ideal way to get justice. What does it portray ? Our legal system is so weak that an influential family like Goenkas can be nailed only by marrying any of these members ? Instead they should have shown Durga collecting proofs against all the members and finally nailing them in the court of law.

EHT is adapted from Revenge as far as I know till this point. They have made the story suited to Indian space. So they have followed Revenge way where the leading lady marries the son of the family she is gonna destroy.
Dev's character is that of Jack who marries Emily thinking she is Amanda. In Revenge the character switch happens between 2 girls and since Jack has seen Amanda only as a child he marries Emily thinking she is Amanda.
Here they have made Durga/Nithya same and they have made Dev marry Durga without knowing she is Nithya.
So in that way show is acceptable to me as I had guessed it from beginning it is Revenge way and had kept the expectation also like that.
So when you adapt from something you cant simply change the storyline.
