To keep Shagun character in the story not only the butchered the leads Raman and Ishita but they butchered the villain Ashok too
Ashok was business rival for Raman he always planned things to put Raman down and to insult him but for Shagun to become a surrogate mother they turned him into a killer as he was instrumental in killing IshRa baby via Adi so that Shagun can become surrogate mother
Raman character got butchered during surrogacy track to glorify Shagun to the extent that many of stopped watching the show because many of us could not take ShaRam scene and the insult they were throwing at the person who are suffering from infertility even though it is was done in the name of Ishita ke liye but the main purpose of CV was to glorify Shagun
Ishita character got butchered in this bhoot track to glorify Shagun to the extent that Ishita scares the kids,tortures the family in front of the entire world by acting mad, tries to kill amma, causes Raman to lose his self-respect in front of Ashok, makes Raman die thousand death to see her in this condition in the name of Raman ke liey but the main purpose of the CV was to stop the protest against surrogacy, stabilizes trp and glorify Shagun and continue with the surrogacy track
Ashok character got butchered to glorify Shagun out of all the people he could hire to kill Raman he comes to Shagun and threatens her to kill Raman from a class villain they have made him into a standard soap villain who wants to just kill the lead just so that all the Bhalla & Iyers accept Shagun as a changed soul and be a slave to her
YHM was a matured love story with all the characters getting equal footage even the grey Shagun and all the characters were loved by the audience including the grey Shagun which was relatable and IshRa magic rocked but everything changed from Shagun wedding instead of the story getting the importance everything started revolving around Shagun character be it grey, black or white effectively killing the lovable YHM but IshRa magic did keep the loyal audience coming back hoping they would see their original YHM but with both these consecutive surrogacy and booth tracks CV have effectively shooed away their loyal YHM fans from the show
They have named the show aptly Yeh hai mohabbatein I thought it was for the love of IshRa but after two years I figured out it is for their love of Shagun.
