out that I am comprehensively disappointed at whatever they are showing and no,
this time around it has got nothing to do with the story but with a raging
mindset that appears not to go away no matter how hard you try to fight it.</font>

<font face="Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif" color="#666666">I agree hate-love stories have their own charm,
but they are over doing their own age-old formula. The way Shivaay is behaving
and acting out in front of Anika is plain abuse. This comes under mental
cruelty and no incase you had been thinking this is confined to marital status
then you are wrong. Shivaay is repeatedly abusing her and I can't now turn into
a blind bat to actually ignore all of that. Until yesterday I wanted to find a
loophole to defend Shivaay today I am not ready for the same. This guy
repeatedly asks Anika her price. What does he take her to be? A woman who'd
readily sell her flesh? Or does he think that just because she is poor she is
readily available at her beck and call? It is disgusting to speak modestly.
Before I began with the episodic rendition I had been reading an article that
was written in first person narrative by an anonymous user in a local magazine.
She clearly stated how it had all begun with seemingly harmless tiffs and ended
up being blown-out-of-proportions abuse. She still wears those physical scars
as a reminder of all that she went through.</font>

<font face="Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif" color="#666666">Come on Gul, we as girls have been battling this
mentality for long we don't need your heroes to glorify the same. If Shivaay
indeed has to settle it out with Anika let that be on professional fronts there
is no need to plaster a price tag on her and demean her so. It's been enough
and high time that you stop showing your heroines as victim of one form of
abuse or the other. If you can't do your bit to change the scenario please
don't add to it. She is not out there to sell her flesh. Until yesterday I
could have defended you and your heroes thinking it might stop somewhere but
the spoilers, the episode, the dialogue and the precap have really spoiled it
all for me. This is showing out your filthy side to the world. And please don't
play advocates saying this happens or is just fiction. Because this really adds
to real life scenarios; it might be impossible to believe in but you have
misguided folks who take inspiration from such tele-series and movies and
stalk, harass and abuse girls thinking they'd like it somehow.</font>

<font face="Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif" color="#666666">I am sorry I am in a despondent mood to actually
fish for details form this series. What I have read today clearly has saddened
my heart to look for anything else. Just please Gul at least being a women,
don't support this. </font>

^^They are indeed over-doing this revenge business. Anika is not a commodity that Shivaay keeps asking her, her price!

Hmmm i can understand your frustration at Shivaay's character, however i would like to point out that such people exist in real life, only in real life there's no way a girl will ever fall for such a guy.

still i agree that even if on reel, girls shouldnt be shown so powerless and such thing as you said isnt good especially in India, where already girls are treated as less equal as a man.

once i would be very angry when a show went away from what it promised or even showed things i couldnt digest, i had once serious issues of addiction to a few shows in the past, but there's one thing i've learnt is that no matter what CVs will do what they want, the show is only on reel and i shouldnt let this affect me at all😊

lol i also once used to say i feel cheated as a viewer and want my money and time back, but this hardly works nah😊

so calm down, take a break if needed.

This is nothing but a show.

in real life asking someone's price means like buying her for sex, at least such thing has not been shown here( take this as a little bit of positive in all the negativeness being shown)
