I would have done exactly the same she is doing wrt to sivaay and anika and Ishkara screen space, because if both the parallel leads love stories are build on same pace it has major disadvantages w.r.t to serial telecast and TRP.
1. By building the story at different paces the story can be stretched making the episodes number more and content distributed evenly.
2. There is no scope of comparison of direction/ scenes etc between the parallel lead couples thus giving importance to each story one at a time in a unique way.
Personally I liked all three male and female leads they are unique in their own way and we can enjoy three different stories at the same time.
What do you guys feel ...
