After Break Up The makers hardly bothered to show what could be the reaction of Dev's sisters( other than one or two instances.) Only once they showed Neha confronting her mother.
Definitely Ria and Nicky would have felt bad for their brother.
Equation between them and their brother changed after Sona entered their house. So now they very well have the closeness to approach Dev and lend him their shoulder for support. Besides that why did the makers stopped showing Neha and Ranbir's personal life? Does that mean they lived happily ever after? I don't think so. In movies such things happen not in reality.Surely Neha must be facing problems but the makers choose not to address them anymore.

Nikki always is vocal about everything. She may be afraid of her mother to speak her heart out.But I don't feel she can restrain herself from confronting Dev.Of the three she is closer to Sona.
Apart from Sona issue the makers should have shown how the sisters lives effected because of the tense atmosphere in the house.
They could have shown Nikki venturing into something risky and falling in danger Ofcourse not necessarily as shown before. They could have shown something related to studies.

Ria is clever works in Dev's office. They could have shown her following her brother,helping him out in business matters and finding out how desparate he has become and stooped to lower levels like stalking,interfering in Ritwik's matters.


The makers also stopped showing Radha Rani regularly. Even if her behaviour towards Sona is unwelcome the actress is too good that she in a way provides relief from the usual tensed up scenario.
Moreover Radharani's words sometimes show mirror to Iswari who refuses to see the real facts.

When we cook a dish all the ingredients should be added in right proportion. Then only it tastes good.
If they show the same scenes with a little bit of changes it becomes boring to watch.

Before Break up their routine scenes included one interaction between Sona and Dev at home then the predictable car drive moments and the dialogues that most of the fans found great but few like me got irritated.

After Break up the Routine scenes include Ritwik Sona at Restaurent,Dev the Stalker and one Iswari scene or Bijoy Asha scene.I found it quite boring.
But I always liked Saurabh from Sona's family and enjoyed his scene with Dev yesterday.
I find Elena Sona scenes boring and repetitive.
Well coming to the title of my post I feel bad that they are not moving the story forward including all the main charecters.Even Tina is not seen enough nowadays.

Mahabharat always keeps the interest of the readers and viewers even today because Vyasa developed all the charecters almost with equal dedication though mainly it tells the story of Pandavas.
It gave us so many different charecters,Karna,Duryothan,Abhi,Ghatotkacha.Sakuni,Kunti,Gandhari..

So a good book or show will keep us on our Toes when there is all round Development in story Telling.

I regret to admit that the makers bother only about Sonakshi's Charecter and never bothered to explore others. My hero Shaheer also is suffering due to their step motherly treatment. They ruined Dev Dikshit I really feel bad for him.

Still when he enacts a scene he puts his heart and soul into that and perform making his fans like me glued to the Television. Yes I watch it for Shaheer.But if the makers show the same old third angle,same old scenes how long can we retain the enthusiasm to watch?

So when I pondered over the recent attitude of the makers I found my answer. Probably they want to cut costs. They want to move the story with limited charecters.But the final product is effecting.
The quality factor is diminishing. It hurts a lot.

Partially agree with u..
Dev's family is not alla bout Ishwari
Ok show her if she atleast show some signs of improvement..

Dev sis do play a role too.. Atleast a moment they shud b shown
Not necessarily supportive but their attitude is necessary - indifferent
Ranveers feeling towards the breakup.. He can make sense to his MIL ..that it was wrong that Dev ditched Sona.. Am sure she is a nice gal so on what grounds things went bad all of a sudden..

CVs pls don't lose ur show by missing on other characters proportionally..
Dev n Bose family phase off is also necessary.. Sona always faced harsh words from the duo mad ladies of Dixit home... Why then not Bose to Dev? Is that not important..

Dev shud get thrashed for ruining her life by not standing by her in love n also not allowing her to move on.. Am hoping they don't miss this out... I hear the spoilers that Dev Sona news leaks - atleast then the pending pitaai shud happen 😆

It is unfair to ignore Dev's sister's side, it was to an extend that i got a feeling that they are portraying sister's character's also with grey shades...

Me too thought that makers are going in for cost cutting and showing only the few main character's interaction.

But, i am confused here. Because,

If cost cutting is their actual motive,

1. Post break they showed Riya and Niki having a talk with Ishwari(after Sona - Ishwari face off last week). so they are in to picture. Atleast makers could have shown these two girls interacting among themselves for Dev's current state. But, they didn't show that.

2. In yesterday's episdoe, they showed Dev and Saurabh conversation. If the purpose of that scene is to show that Dev understood Sona's engagement not yet happened, makers could have shown that via his personal detective itself and by that Dev concluding that since Sona's was still in live with him was not able to get engaged. But again, they didn't show that way.

3. Those sisters who was free to discuss about Natasha with Dev and his changed behavior and more to that even Dev he himself realized his love for Sona when he was with them. But, now they are shown as they are overlooking Dev's problem and back to their normal routine. Remember the scene where Niki comes to Dev's room when Ishwari was cleaning his table and find that bracelet and followed by their convo on Niki's project money and that bracelet part.

I am not seeing this as normal sibling's bond coz we tend to share few things to our sibling first even before we say to our parents, like Sona- Elena - Saurabh bonding.
Even though Ishwari asked Niki and Riya not to talk about Dev's break-up to him, but still they could have shown them spending some time with their brother.

So, i am getting doubt here whether makers want to show that Dev's sister too have some grey shades. 😕

And about Shaheer's as Dev, y'day saw some segment where he himself told that he is happy in playing Dev character and he likes the Dev character's graph. So for actors, everything is an experimenting and exploring about their skills in performing different shades.So, happy for him.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Actors always are obligated to respond only positively when their show is running.
So Shaheer has to say such words only.
And I seriously feel he deserves much more than just stalking and upsetting Sona's Mangetar's plans to settle down. He already proved how cute he looks and acts even in things like stalking.
So I want the writers to utilise Shaheer's prowess and make his Charecter shine.

@OP. Very well said and all very valid points.
There has been a drop in quality from the storyline perspective, of that there is no doubt. Just about everyone agrees. Even those that currently support Devs behavior are mostly doing it out of sheer frustration/desperation and not really because this is what they hoped he would become.

This has been one area the show has been weak from the get go. The surrounding characters have not been fleshed out properly. They come and go as per the situations/CVs demand and not as per what the story demands. I don't even know why Dev even has that one single friend when he has served no real purpose in the entire show till date.

And that supposed villian suddenly went missing as if he was a bad mistake.

Money could be the reason and if that's the case, may be they are doing their best with what they have.

Else they should pay attention to other characters and involve then in the main storyline to make it more interesting.
