Today I sigh as I think what this show was, and what it has become. Suman's words ring sharp in my ears. But it is not just about Shravan. It is about everyone.
Look at Shravan first. His downfall the obvious, and evident. From this caring, wont hurt anyone guy (with a slight streak of misogyny of course but harmless) he has become a fully blown anti-hero. He wants revenge. What for? For helping the woman he loved? Or for the fact that she didn't reciprocate his feelings. Or that she used him... I mean, even if she did... so much hatred? So much?Sumo. Today's episode seriously gave me the vibes that she has genuinely moved on, and dropped Shravan like a hot potato.The way she spouts words of disgust to Shravan - without an ounce of thinking why he said some of the things and the way she has also 'judged' that he hates Adi (why, would you care to ask)... was so characteristic of the younger Sumo... And hate to agree with Ramnath but selfish to some extent.Nanu. I guess Sumo gets some of her nature from nanu's genes... I mean, the way he simply snubbd Shravan off - forgetting all that Ramnath has done for him, all that Shravan has done for him, just because he doesn't want tanav in the marriage... What is he going to do next? When there is a function in the house he is going to say, Malhotras stay out, or Ahujas stay put in Mumbai? You have zero regard for how the Malhotras will feel in this matter? Heck they are also your daughter's sasural wale... And today you tell Shravan, that we can manage, because I am not in the weak moment anymore?What a beautiful show this was. With all their flaws, we empathized with every character. We fought, sided with, understood and felt all of them at some point in the show. But today, these characters are competing for the "Sabse disgusting" kaun khitaab. At least for me, I relate to no one anymore. They have taken this whole MU and hatred to an nonreturnable extreme, just for TRPs and drama.Hate marriage karni hi thi to kuchh achha premise banate. Or they could have never shown them as becoming friends again... I hate to compare but the thought came to my mind of Asher-Khirad wedding in Humsafar... It was not a hate marriage but one based on a fundamental MU. How about having showed that Shravan does break up with Suman (albeit nicely without the drama) and then Nanu asked Shravan to get married to Suman (because he thought they have a thing going, and Shravan happy about it) and Suman in her whole self respect stuff thinking that she is a burden in Shravan's life... So both were compelled into this to fulfill his dying wish (and Adi perhaps due to his closeness to Sumo was a sore point in Shravan's eyes)...Why show so much hatred and negativity that we are actually convinced that ShraMan are not compatible and have huge ego problems, and feeling sorry for Aditya... who just came into their lives like a week ago...In fifteen days, this show has gone from best to worst for me. I know TRPs will pick up once the marriage is on, but why use a cliche when you claimed to be different?
