@Viji and @Maya beautiful and very detailed reviews as usual. It makes it so real as if I'm watching thE show.

Thanks for the detailed updates. Love reading them as they are so detailed but as you said, feel a disconnect with the show even with the lollipops. I watch the online episodes if there is Shagun bashing by Raman. In a way, I am indirectly contributing to the online trp (if there is one) for Shagun😊. As Raji said, this story or its porgress is driven by Shagun and Ishita is the eternal sufferer. How can they even romance..when she is subjected to so many insults by all and sundry. He just says sorry and then the one liners. Also how can they not think about where Pihu is and mention to someone in the house to keep an eye on her if he is going out. Why can't they be one step ahead of Shagun and try to defeat her in her own game, instead of trying to react all the time..very frustrating..a CEO/dentist are not able to outwit Shagun. The leads being so dumb is also not attractive to watch. Any normal woman in Ishita's place (except the soap serial bahus) would be in depression. It looks like she has got the taste of suffering and that's when she is happy. Also parents lives being controlled by the kids is a huge failure for parenting. Kids insulting, abusing elders is also a failure on Shagun/Raman's/grandparents part. these are not the values or the language a 8 yr normal kid has. Pihu was a happy, normal kid till the marriage. Now her whole behaviour has changed..Cannot connect to her at all. As Maya said, she does not come across as depressed/insecure/disturbed kid. She is very sure about her position in Bhalla house and is very manipulative. That is not at all palatable..have trouble connecting to her as she is the surrogate kid.

@Madhavi, aptly written. Yes, Pihu seems to have no bonding with Bhallas that includes Raman too. I think Pihu is practically raised by Shagun and Sajan Ka Sasural when Shagun is not around .

@raji & l@ Madhavi
You girls are nailing it... The story revolves around Shagun and Shagun only.. Post Leap.. As far as I can remember they have concentrated on how Shagun turns black .. That's it.. No progress in ishra, pihu/ ishu.. Pihu/ Raman
Zilch zippo... It's stagnant and going in circles . Even the romance is not gradual.. It's out of the blue.. Ok trp duwn.. Quick fix...Let's show ishra romance.. Trp stabilized .. Ok Shagun Shagun Shagun.. Trp down ishra again.. Cvs have no story they are deciding based on trp's.. That's it.. I better stop now..

So Shagun successfully ruined one more personal time of Ishita and Raman. Looks like CVS are interested in giving these cozy time to Ishita and Raman are just to get ruined by Shagun only.

Again Shagun was able to get hold of pihu despite the efforts of Raman. I wonder what is Bhallas priority at this point. They can clearly see the amount of manipulation Shagun is executing on their little girl but they have no control over her whereabouts or safeguarding her from any harm. Once again it's proved that this story can only progress or written for Shagun and Shagun only.

Only wish they tone down Pihu dialogs to suit an 8 year old would be great.

Maya, we will not have any emotional conversation between Ishita and Raman nor the pain and hurt Ishita suffered 7 years ago is ever going to be addressed as they have no scope as far as the story of Shagun is concerned. So if we see the upcoming pictures or spoilers it's clear who is driving the story.. Romantic scenes will be given as TRP grabbers only to be interrupted by Shagun..so the story continues.

Thank you for giving the review that too very detailed taking time from your busy schedules.. appreciate it greatly.

If I remember correctly Adi started out as insecure/disturbed and after the bed wetting when Shagun realized the extent of insecurity and that it was backfiring on her, she reinforced to Adi that everyone loves him and he can do anything and they will still love him. From then on, his actions changed to knowingly doing kaands...emotionally manipulating the bhallas to do his bidding. The kaands changed when Ishita asked him to stay away from the adults wars after she foung the headphones outside the storeroom..

Looks like there was no bonding between Pihu and the Bhallas despite living in the same house..and seems as if Shagun totally controlled her and Raman let her. Well they all are suffering now. The story is going no where..depends on Shagun's next step...
