If you love the show , or the track , leave NOW . This is a rant , not meant for you ,*shoo, go away*

Dear Creatives of Sadda Haq ,
I began watching this show , because it promised to be realistic, interesting , had potential , appeared different , and most importantly looked like a show with strong female leads .

And I have to tell you , initially you guys did deliver on that , you really did . I was hooked , in fact my family was hooked . But the track that you have had for the past few months has been pathetic , to say the least. Far from being a stress buster, this has become a source of my stress and angst , I am this close to giving up on the show.

I understand that Sanyukta is the lead , that this her story , her struggles in a man's world . What I don't understand is why none of the other girls in the mechanical team suffer as much as she does .

Randhir targets her , and only her . Why does he not target any of his MCP behavior at Vidushi, or kaustugi ?
They clearly are women too, in the same stream as Sanyukta . You guys suggested that they are just as intelligent as she is , because you know , they are part of the "dream team ". So where is their story ?

Why is it that we only see Sanyukta's internship story , why not show us what Vidushi's internship is like?

Why is Vardhan always only worried about Sanyukta , why is it that it feels like he motivates only her , and the rest of the girls simply don't exist.

You created the hero , an MCP, Randhir , and at first he was perfect in his role. He was aggravating, annoying , and made me want to kick him . But gradually , you built a story for him, gave me a reason to see the genuine , sweet guy he was . He evolved as a character , became somebody I could relate to .

Parth and Vidushi were perfect examples of people with grey shades , examples of people inspired from real life

Now though , you have just KILLED all your characters . The logic has vanished in a poof .
I have to tell you , I have friends who have studied , graduated from Mechanical Engineering courses , without meeting the magical number of MCP's that exist in Sanyukta's life .

Why can't you introduce a boy who challenges her , pushes her to do her best yes , but minus the MCP attitude . Right now , there is nothing realistic, or at all about her problems ; they aggravate.

COUNT OF MCP"S IN SANYU"S LIFE:
1. her dad
2. her brother
3. Randhir (on again, off again, like a bloody switch)
4. Random boys who come for culturals
5. Her ex fiance
6. Her boss at her work place
7. her co wokers , fellow interns
8. The entire factory ?

Actually , I forgot to include a few people .

9. Ex fiance's family

10. Rajveer - the creepy fellow she coaches

11. The coaching centre manager and management

12. The members of the society she temporarily lives in , and her obnoxious neigbour




Now it's just funny , you would have us believe that there is not one man in the entire set up , who will help , according to you , the world is full of MCP's , nice *slow clap*


Randhir was perfect , now though he reminds of either alternatively
a) a perpetually drunk lunatic
b) a third rate cheap creep .
There is nothing you can do to redeem him for me , NOTHING .
I understand suspending logic , but this takes it to another level all together .
No fourth year student is as jobless as all that
Now RD is like that thug /villain in c grade old bollywood movies
We will never forgive you for that curtain scene , NEVER. That, was the lowest point for me

Sanyukta was interesting , now all she is , is a whiny girl , incapable of handling life .I have interned in places , and her kind of whinning, constant drama , and general bull shit would have got her chucked out , a long time back . All I hear from her theses days is *whine , needy , needy .. , whine , whine whine ... look pathetic*
For the love of God, who is nice to someone like Ishika ?
She seems nothing like somebody who can handle life . A girl who is hung up , on getting her dad and bhai's approval. Why , then would you make her the bold girl who walked out, to chase her dreams ?
And now you want to make her seem like she can be everything - Engineer, Teacher , brilliant chef, someone who can sew beautifully, and now Sportswoman .Let me tell you , that idea , it just bombed .
She reminds me of the saas , bahu , bechari, abla naari types now . Thank you for killing her for me .Where is the gutsy , brilliant strong girl I knew ? . She's dead .


You just will not allow Vidushi to be redeemed will you ? She will always be a pitch black character , shallow, selfish and superficial .You dangle her past in front of us , like candy in front of a fat kid , and then snatch it back .Like, it was never there , like we imagined things .

a) What was the Varun track for?
b) Why did you take the fake boyfriend deal with Parth nowhere ?
c) Why did you have them locked in the library ?

I know nothing about either of them , any more than I did when the show started . Where is the character development ? Sanyukta and Randhir are not the only people in the story .
Our DT's have far better idea .

What is Vardhan doing in college , why is he even there ? You showed us glimpses of some potential Maya ,Vardhan track , and boom that's also randomly disappeared


Most importantly , your treatment of the following issues was abysmal.

1. Jiggy's death, and suicide . What? one song defines the depth of their feelings?
2. Maya's abusive husband deal ,
3. The domestic abuse angle of Vidushi's marriage
4. The fact that Randhir and Parth smoke when things get stressful . Drinking , I can get behind , but smoking sends a wrong message .
5. Kindly stop trying to do a desi version of Breaking Bad, by suggesting they're brewing their own drugs on campus now .

I'm not even going to talk about the non existent logic in your show , because then this would not be a post, it would be a book.

*lets out breath*

Girl!! Wat a brilliant post!
BEing a mechanical engineer myself I cant tell you how frustrated I get when I watch Sanyukta in the factory making a fool of herself!! The way she whines like u mentioned!!
The one who claims to kick every guy's arse cant even lift a hammer!!!
Now, I have had friends in college who were so weak yet could manage doing all the heavy duty stuff that mech engg demands,
but this one here , when she can bungee jump , walk on burning coal,walk the tightrope each day juggling between MCP's of different order, this should be a piece of cake!! But no, apparently she is just strong Mentally (or so it seems) !!!

N do not get me started on Vidushi n Randhir...My fav characters in SH ..or should i say ex-fav. Somehow now that they have ruined Randhir royally,,,turned him into a sleazeball (after he rips open the curtain , he died instantly for me)
SO yeah ! I quit this show now coz i cant see engg and common sense being torn asunder!!

first , an Engineer , wow :)
I know , whiny Sanyukta is 😡, also why is her hair not tucked into the damn cap ? why is it hanging out in fancy braid ? Also , she keeps expecting help , like a pre schooler . What was the cricket match about ?

Sayukta the engineering wonder , the brilliant cook , the fantastic teacher ,the girl who can stitch , and now sportswoman also , wow 👏😆

That curtain scene was what caused this post . WTH was that ? I cannot see why Sanyukta would want anything with him 🥱

Thanks!! Is the wow for me being an engineer or me being a mechanical engg who watches this show!!! 😆

Heeheheh..good observation...didnt realise she did that..well i get so annoyed by the engg bloopers that i missed this one!! 😆
the cricket match was to show that girls can play too!! well, this coming from a person who refused to skip alongwith Randhir citing reasons like"Main ek ladki hun , main kaise skipping kar sakti hun?

Sayukta the engineering wonder , the brilliant cook , the fantastic teacher ,the girl who can stitch , and now sportswoman also , wow 👏😆

Oh i know girls in real life who can do all of that and much more ,and much better than SAnyukta!! but they are a bit realistic not like her !! like they dontt learn eveything in a day!

Thats the most disgusting thing i have seen!! WEll , honestly i have seen worse but they were expected from Ekta's serials not in a youth show (well, pretending to be atleast)

You penned down what I've been thinking for a LONG while. *slow claps*

Reserved. Cause I wanna write a lot more.

*****************************


I am honestly so SICK of the show. Like really. When I was introduced to SHQ like last May/June, I was introduced to a show with almost realistic engineering tasks, a fabulous characterisation for EVERY CHARACTER in the show, and a very strong back story for practically every character.

Honestly, ever since the stupid coaching center track, I've not been able to understand what the heck's been happening. Allow me to list out the bajillion fallacies in the track (some of which you've already pointed out)

1. She joins the coaching center as a teacher, and in a time span of like a month (more like a week, cause that's how long it takes for her to coach Priyali), she makes like almost 2 lakhs worth of rupees. Firstly, tell me, which college charges like 2 lakhs for its tuition fee, AND 2 lakhs for its accommodation fee? I'm an engineering student myself, and there's a stark difference between my semester's tuition fee and hostel fee. Really. Leaving that aside, cause you know, creative liberties and all that jazz, the owner of the coaching center gets SO pleased with her, that he gives her the exact amount that she needs? How? Okay, lets attribute this to creative liberty as well. Last I checked, both, RD and Sanyukta were pretty broke. How did RD manage to pay for his hostel fees? Also, after they managed to pay for their hostel fees, how did they survive? I mean, basic necessities like food and toiletries and stationery? How did they pay for that? Or did they agree to take parental help for that?

2. Vidushi's back story. The story of her previous marriage was dropped like a bombshell, with her going on about how her parents are "dead" for her, and how she wanted nothing to do with Varun. Finally, what do we see? NOTHING. Zilch. The track had SO much potential, and the entire domestic abuse track was handled so lightly, and was not even explored! What was the point of this track? Was it just to make Parth realise that he loved Vidushi, cause she wasn't running behind him like a lost puppy anymore?

3. Is Sanyukta some sort of a magnet for MCPs? I mean, its like all the MCPs in the world are drawn to her! You've drawn a list of the bajillion MCPs she keeps meeting on an hourly basis, and honestly, its not funny anymore. To glorify Sanyukta and female empowerment, you cannot show the rest of the male species being certified jerks, cause its just not justified one bit. So please. Stop it.

4. Anju's bipolarity. Sometimes, the woman will call up Sanyukta and encourage her and shit. Next thing you know, she's marching down to FITE/hostel/office and going all "why did you do this, do you know how your dad is mad at you?". Like REALLY? I mean, at least Kishore and Ankit are better, they KNOW that they hate her engineering with a passion, Anju, on the other hand, can't seem to decide if she hates her daughter's antics, or is in awe of them.

5. Reduce, reuse, recycle; is a very, very good saying. We should do it, and try and save the environment. However, it doesn't work in daily soaps. After a year of establishing a character like RD, and making these people move ahead in their lives, you make EVERYONE go back to square 1? RD's back to ruining Sanyukta's life, Sanyukta's surrounded by MCPs, the two are out to make each other's lives miserable; with a slight change - the two still love another, so we'll get the random RD losing his temper over someone touching Sanyukta or talking to Sanyukta or helping Sanyukta. RD's character graph has been ruined so badly, I don't see any scope of redemption.

6. I've said this in many places, why has SHQ turned into a guide of "What Not To Do When In College"? Smoking, alcoholism (did we figure out why did RD treat whiskey like perfume and pretend to act drunk everywhere?), drugs, meth lab, bullying, implied pregnancy, murder; is there anything else left?

7. The dream team is as good as non existent, isn't it? Jiggy's dead, SanDhir are off acting cuckoo in Aggarwal enterprises, Parth's joined the CID, and all Vids can think about is sushi. Vardhaan keeps dropping cryptic hints about some top secret nonsense, and the new dean is out to find out that cryptic rubbish. Really, you think ANYONE cares?

8. Jiggy's death was handled SO pathetically, I cannot even fathom how could they do this. He was an important character, so much more than the very much alive Saahil. No one grieved for him for more than a bloody night! RD went off to acting loony in his mom's office, Sanyukta acted like a kid left in a toy store (with a smartphone, given the random selfie craze), and VidArth just went about like nothing had changed. Erm, hello?! He was close to ALL of you? Could you at least be a bit somber? Like what nonsense is this?!

9. RD's family. Did they conveniently disappear after RD tried to single handedly murder everyone in their company?

10. The show is about women empowerment, yes. But no firm treats their interns in such a manner. Also, if all of their interns are SO incompetent, I'm surprised that none of them are fired yet. I'd wanna work in such a place; if nothing else, it'd look good on my resume. No really.



There's so much more I have to say, but unfortunately, stochastic modelling is behaving like a needy bf who needs my attention. But yeah, SHQ's officially gone down the drain, really. They need to pull up their socks and redeem the show, cause there's nothing great about being the top youth show on a channel that airs 3 shows, out of which one doesn't even do well.
