Perfectly put nidoo... my reaction to the episode is similar to yours ... The act doesn't surprise me .. But the question lingers was it necessary... The cvs achieved what they were trying to do : shock... But like they say there are always repercussions to such extreme twist... Most of us were disgusted by the scene and either skipped the episode or regretting watching something like it. My question is was what the channel and Cvs aspiring when they chose this path?

What it has done is evoked much more negative reaction to Shagun ... And has kinda unified the Ishra fans in their universal hatred for that character and irritation at the constant detours taken to fit her by hook and crook in their story...

How is it working? Because apart from a handful few.. Most are irritated with her presence as a pesky fly refusing to stop buzzing .

What KP and DT share is a unique chemistry ... They light up the scene by just sharing a frame... That cannot be manufactured .. No matter how much lighting or camera angle or how much body parts are shown . So I can imagine your reaction 😉

<font face="Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Answer to the question in bold: We have seen a jealous Raman, but we have never seen a jealous Ishita (beyond 2 episodes during the Sanjana track, and I won't count the accident track much because they weren't in love then). From the CVs / channel's perspective, this seems like bringing more drama, so as to increase the TRPs. And no matter how much most of us disliked it, I've seen enough shows to predict that this sequence and its repercussions are indeed going to fetch them TRPs. This will lead to MU, mini-separation, finding out the actual truth, punishing the culprit, uniting ShaNoj, and so on and so forth.</font>

<font face="Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">And as far as reaction to Shagun is concerned, I don't think it has hampered her image that much. She was already being considered omnipresent (and not in a good way) before today.

And looking at things, her involvement in everything is only going to increase.</font>

<font face="Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">This is such a cliched sequence for any desi show. Why I am grossed out is because YHM was not a cliched show, and why I never expected to see such a scenario playing out between Raman and Shagun here.

<font face="Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">The answer to everything is that all of this means only one thing - SP & BT are trying very hard to bring YHM up the charts, which they could have done using meaningful, non telly-soapish tracks too, but then, what can I say.</font>
