When did the fairy tale end for you?

It happens with a lot of relationships, not necessarily a romantic one.
I am not talking about betrayal per se, but at one point in time you realise that is all there is to it...that no one would come to save you...least of all the person who was most important to you.
To Shravan, that happened when his mother left. He had not believed his dad at first...he had fought him...but then came the time when he realised she was gone for good. There was no point expecting anything from her anymore. He let go.

Every time Shravan betrays her trust in the goodness in him, I feel this is it for Suman- the last straw. But she keeps hoping again and again. Yesterday, I wondered again if this was the last lap- the point where Suman would say, my fairy tale is over...It had got drenched, dirty, torn..still I had hoped I could salvage it. But today..I know it is BEYOND ME...It is not in my hands anymore...I have to let go, knowing it'd never come back..The fairy tale was never ever meant to be...

When did your fairy tale end wrt this show?😳 I can imagine some stern responses to this, criticising the writers...😆...I mean, within the framework of this show when you lost hope in one of the leads...

After yesterday's episode I could only sigh to myself...When did I stop believing in Shravan? He was so impossible..I knew he'd get down to just this...He needs clinical help (A fact oft repeated by many in the forum)..

But when did I know this guy wouldn't be a knight in shining armour for Suman?

It was nothing that happened between Shraman actually. Or the misogyny or the stubbornness or the attitude.

It had been way back in the Ramnath death scare when I saw how he responded...

I had been shocked and actually felt betrayed that he could be so weak. He was a cripple without Ramnath...That was an instance where they actually got a doctor for him.

It had been a significant insight into his character.

From there on, I stopped looking for a hero in Shravan and saw him as an emotionally unstable kid who'd need a rock beside him.

Sumo would be that rock.

You know what I love most about this show now?

The fact that he has pushed that ROCK AWAY...I am happy for him - genuinely happy.

Because this is where Shravan's growth begins. He i snot a cripple. He will learn to walk on his own and be a rock to Suman when she needs him. She wouldn't have to be a crutch anymore!

👏

For that, I thank the writers! 😳

Sumo has her own fears and insecurities but she handles thme under the self respect jaap

I dont know why no one gives her the benefit of doubt ever but
Here is my take

Sumo wants a small wedding ebcause she thinks she is an orphan and not worthy of it. I hope some day MR SM will give her a dream wedding.

She was under ehsaan of all but SHravan WAS hers hence she let him go but now she is under his EHSAAN as well

So when Adityas truth is out she will realise he just hates her and that will be her breaking point. She still has some hope now.

Then it will be a track of a marriage for families and how these two actually learn to love.

I still think she would need to be the rock for sometime before she moves away.
I see her being the rock again with Nirmala truth and post that I see Sumo moving away.

I do want a day in the show where this little girl on the swing actually has all her dreamms fulfilled. Dreams she has kept hidden deep down .Dreams old Shra knew but the adult Shra doesnt

I hope you are right. I hope this is what CVs are trying to show and I really hope this is where CVs are trying to go.

It doesn't feel as bad to read criticism here for Sumon or shravan as it does when someone writes CVs have ruined a beautiful story. I just want somehow to get that story back that I started watching.

Please CVs read this and take note.

Shravan's character has been portrayed as "seeing is believing". This has happened multiple times in the show. He was crippled ever since since his mom left. Irony is that he had 2 solid rocks (Nirmala & Suman) and he has moved himself away from both from of them. He will learn to walk but every body needs a steady rock at some point of their life.
Sumo's breaking point is very close as soon as she comes to know about shravan thru aditya. As far as i have understood sumo character, she is a lot mature in handling situations. How bravely she handles it is the question.

Shravan is not able to appreciate Suman's ambitions, her aspirations. He thinks since in school she never liked to study...she is still the same dumb girl. He has never praised her for the fact that at such a young age, she has started her own business. When PCT was demolished, he was extremely insensitive...his love is outdated...
As Suman said...Baba Adam ke zamane mein he is living and loving...
one reason can be he himself is not career driven. When he wrote the love letter, he was ready to go to the college where Suman would go...:O...when he got angry with her, he followed what his father wanted him to do. No career aspirations of his own. When he decided to stay back...he said he will start his own firm..but he is still working with his father...

chick 🤗
Missed your post yesterday, glad you are here now.
This is such a different take and thats what I love about your posts, you offer a unique perspective and it is so refreshing 😊
I don't know if Sumo was actually his rock, his rock is actually his father.
This has been on my mind for a very long time, but I think Sumo is more than his rock, she is his raison d'tre , the Shravan we see or should I say the Shravan we don't see 😛 is because he isn't there anymore, he has disintegrated. I don't even know if I am making sense. His personal growth can only happen when he lets go of his rock, but he is not there yet, he will not be there till Ramnath's truth comes out. Sorry Shravan wrong rock 😉

Whatever this marriage brings, Shravan is going to get better, simply because he knows that she cannot be anyone else's . He will taunt her day in and day out and I see that Sumo is going to put up with it, its not new to her, after all she puts up with that in Tiwari killa as well. But I think what will get him thinking is that Sumo no longer opens up to him. If she no longer responds to his taunts he is going to panic big time. did you see the expression on his face when she said nothing ? Her silence is going to the death of the Shravan Malhotra 2.0 or whatever the latest version is.

I personally feel that the CVs have stretched this too far already and it is actually frustrating to watch these days. But hopeless romantics that we are, we are still around.

Could CV take jet speed and clean the misunderstanding. Still a beautiful story left if Shravan comes out of Ramnath cluthes, becoming as own, Winning back his love.
Misogynying has gotten to extreme shaded of grey.

I feel Shravan beyond redemption, know high time for gradual process to transit into their relationship. His mental crime are actually huge, can't decipher what will lead into. The spectrum is major and CV are entangling themselves further with misunderstanding.

For me, Shrav changed at the boxing scene, when he spoke abt Sumo getting married by herself & bacha paidae karegi apni apse. Seemed very unlike the sweet boy.

From then on that butterfly had been devolving into a caterpillar. Sumo lost some sheen when she agreed to Adhi's marriage. The "Sumo" wrestler died and an abla nari was born🤢
