I'm a fairly new viewer of JR. I saw a recent episode which I really liked. After watching some epis online I got so addicted that I finished the whole series in 3-4 days. đ
JR had started on a very light note. It was a brilliant show and concept.
The first few months were mainly all fun and frollick. But honestly that had to fall apart as the happiness was built on a lie. It was evident that Sid's identity revelation would lead to heartbreak and tears. The circumstances were more dramatised by the RV-Kri-Simran angle. But I'll say that it gave way to a beautiful story. The entire separation track has brought a lot to SidNi's relationship.
This track has seen a lot of tears and evil I agree but I don't think that even for once have the writers actually lost the plot. They have maintained SidNi's journey extremely well. All the hurdles they are shown facing will only make them stronger and truly emerge as one.
The first SidNi confession and marraige were shown in a bit of a hurry. They had jumped into the relation very fast without really knowing each other. Yes they had a beautiful relation as husband wife but it was based on a lie. And relations based on lies are meant to be torn down. Roshni literally had no idea who her husband was and all the sacrifices he had made. This entire seperation and divorce track has not only made their love stronger and more intense but also has provided an opportunity for Roshni to truly understand and appreciate Sid and what all he has done for her.
RV was an irritating element but whatever he did was ultimately good for SidNi. Though I agree with the fact that his exit was a little anti-climatic. His true face should have been revealed in front of everyone. But well they needed to show that in order to make Kri all out evil.
DD's journey from a money-obssessed lady to a loving mother has been done beautifully too. Simran is a piece of work though. Her char is shown to be too weak and easily influenced. Somehow that is not going to change until something drastic happens.
As for leads being puppets, I don't think that ever happened. They were victims of situations which happens to everyone. You can't always be in control of everything that happens to you. The truth revelation had shattered their lives. It will take time to completely sort everything out.
I have faith in the writers. I'm sure they will not let SidNi go in the background.
Watching the episode is far more effective than reading the WU. Watching the actors bring the story to life has a different charm and JR's cast is brilliant. Plus it's a daily show. Some episodes have to be a little boring. JR has completed almost 200 episodes, you can't expect every episode to be power-packed. It's not possible.
