Its sad how divided our fandom really is

Lets start with all the issues that I can think of (I tried to think of all that I could):

- Annika helping out the Obros to sort their issues - some thought she was overstepping her bounds, some called her kebab main haddi - some said this was foretold in the beginning of the series and applauded her, some thought that Obros are the best and no one should some between them and that they can solve their own issues

- Ishana - where to start - some found her boring and too over the top - hated her dancing and some loved her soo much that they harassed the makers for more screen space which led to her eventual exit from the show - some even hated the whole Ishkara plotline but just loved Vrushika and Kunals chemistry, and wanted the CVs to change the complete story

- Annikas stand on the marriage - why isn't she against it and why is she not speaking out against dadi and how can she live with her abuser and let her brother stay there as well - and some advocating for annka that she is in shock and loves shivaay and will grow a back bone soon and will fight

- Shivaay - where to start - everyone loves to hate him, but most don't want to see him cry and when he does cry, we want him to cry more - his changed attitude - where some are saying that it has always been this way and some calling it character assassination and some trying to explain why he did it

- Daksh - some want him back to resolve the ONS misunderstanding - whereas some want shivaay to solve it on his own, some want him to kidnap anika and some feel its just too sad if that happens to annika

- Strong villain - we hated Roop, gayatri, bua and Svetlana and wanted a stronger villain, now that Tia is evil personified - we hate that as well and we want her to be her sweet self and now we are questioning why cant exes be good and why do they always tur evil

Mallika - some thought she wasn't needed at all in the story and hated every part of it and some are wishing that she comes back

- RuMya - some wanting more screen space - some wanting rehaan to come back - some wanting Romi, some hating her , some hating that Rudra was aggressive with Saumya

- Om's love story - some wanting Oms story to start - but when it does start they hating the whole drug overdose bit - and when we hear that a lead has been finalized - we hate her as well

- Priyanka - some just hate her character - some think that she will be the reason that all the brothers will break, as she will have to bear the mistakes of all her brothers - some people hate the ACP, some want more scenes of him and Om and shivaay

- past being explored - a while back everyone was hating on Gul for not solving past issues - now that they are being solved we are hating the Chutki bit - we don't want Annikas sister to be Om's love interest

-Character assassination - how the whole family flipped after SSO and Annikas wedding - some believing that this was bound to happen

- Dadi forcing Annika and Shivaay to stay together - some believing that it was the correct thing to do - and agreeing with all her sindoor and mangalsutra gyaan

- Screen space - now here comes the tricky part - yes its a story of three brothers and not just Shivaay but Shivaay has been the protagonist from the beginning - no denying that and I feel that wont change - no matter how much we harass the makers - it will just lead to them taking rash decisions like axing plotlines and characters - and since shivaay is given more screen space naturally so would his heroine Annika, but our fandom doesn't understand that - we love to hate Annika calling her Gul ki favourite and what not - where as it looks like Shivaay is the favourite rather than vice versa.

I love watching Ishqbaaz - I don't watch it believing that it will change the world and that it will bring female equality and reduce male chauvinism, I watch it for the fun and all the twists and turns, and I hate that we as a fandom are so divided in our views, I have watched a lot of programs but never have I seen a fandom so divided and so against each other - we just wait to pick on others.

Not everyone is going to agree with your opinion - but that does not mean that we forget our manners and call each other names and fight. This is a program to be enjoyed, to made fun off and taken lightly, there is so much to come - we need to give the makers a chance and if not then we should just stop watching if we don't like it - but creating negativity and ill feelings amongst each other just for the heck of it is just not done. If we do not agree with someone's opinion that is fine, but we do need to respect it!!

Different people have different mindset and different liking so division of fandom is as natural as different zones having different temperatures at the same time

Anika is CVS favorite punching bag rather than there favorite who want to see there favorite being insulted like this? If anything I agree Shivaay is there favorite many of already accept the fact he wouldn't get a strong redemption track like Gul said "Bad is the new good" and she has only defended SSO bashing and anything bad said about him so she already made it clear he's her favorite boy.

they are just opinions buddy.
Our forum don't have any divisions.
There is thing with ishkara but not exactly are they divided.


you should have been in YHM forums you know comparison not allowed,where tgerecalways existed femaleblead vs maleblead.that division never ended even.now ibguess.
each supporter goes extreme length of verbal fights with others taunting other.


IB for our luck don't have that differences.
When shivaay is wrong we hate him all together and when he does something good we all adore him .
There is no division in this forums

Just as it is your right to say how much you enjoy the show, it is our right to express disappointment and saying that somehow our expression of dissatisfaction is an attempt at "creating negativity and ill feelings amongst each other just for the heck " is extremely condescending. i agree that we should all be respectful but assuming that others come here to create negativity is farfetched and contrary to respecting all opinions. people express negative feelings because what is being shown is negative. period. i agree ishqbaaz is not showing social change such as female equality but that doesnt give it free reign to show negative things such as romanticizing male chauvinism, showing a spirited modern girl becoming a docile doll in the face of a criminal marriage committed at proverbial gun point- with an abusive ego maniac using an utterly false dogma of family love to ruin people- for some archaic sindoor mangalsutra gyaan and then showing that abusive behavior can b forgiven with a slap on the wrist! this show is hardly young, its been 4-5 months. we have given the writers many chances only to receive subpar storylines that are inconsistent with our belief systems. thus the outcry. this forum has always had a bad habit to ask for patience. why? patience is not owed to the writers. it has to b earned. as for shivaaye being the "main" protagonist, the story has turned that way but wasnt promised as that- ek kahani k teen kisse remember? the fans who were interested in the other two hissas of the kahani feel naturally cheated- that sentiment should be equally respected in the forum .

Can I say 👏 WELL DONE! I made a similar post,
But regarding this constant bashing of characters, Kasam se, anything happens, we see IB 'fans' gather below GK's Insta page and hate on how the track is taking place!I honestly do not understand why individuals won't relax and enjoy the show, YES I UNDERSTAND-We are all incredibly invested in the show- me included- I find myself rolling in fits of laughter when illogical sequences occur OR vamps make snide remarks 😆BUT some people have taken it upon themselves to be the vamps jesse Tia and Daksh kam the😆 They send Navina and Karan hate messages- YAAR they are actors who are getting paid for their role. WHY are people getting so worked up!! Now they want Daksh back 🤣 GOSH make up your mind!

AND if it affects them to such an extent, if its a life and death situation-TV MEIN OFF BUTTON HOTA HAI- Close the Tv or change the channel-TRP will drop and the track shall shift😉 BUT as the audience, the creators come up with such DHAMAKEDAAR shows for OUR entertainment, however in the end, it is their show and they present their vision to us (however regressive and I do not condone these tracks at all)- They cannot be changing every little thing because certain people have negative things to say! RELAX DUDES!! Enjoy karo, laugh, cry, be angry, BUT calm down when it comes to bashing because it is a show!

I LOVE THIS SHOW- after so long I have found something that has drew me in (The Originals finished and this came on) it has its ups and downs- Though I wouldn't change anything-as that makes it an authentic GK show and I want the extra melodramatic nonsensical crap- the extra cringeworthy moments- The ablanaari (Anika is no ablanaari) and the egoistic anti-hero, ALL the twists and the turns and I WANT VAMPS- BECAUSE they spice up the show- FULL ON MASALA chahiye🤪 It would become bland and dull otherwise, the show would become stagnant aur phir our unpaid critics shall collate and complain that GK YOU MADE THE SHOW BORING!

If its getting the watchers this worked up, then the creators have done an excellent job!

The cast is phenomenal-the acting is fantastic- they give us a variation of scenes ranging from cute to love to hate to revenge- WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT?😆 Kidney bhi de de? Hamare Naks kitne cute lagte hai when he cries- WHAT MORE DO YOU WANT? 😳

Whatever GK does, ANYTHING, log shikayaton ka pahaar khara kar dete hai CHILL OUT! Keep watching and spread the love guys- Honestly, spread the love because there are many other serious aspects of life and to get away from that and to laugh a little we watch these shows🤗 ❤️

But the show is is nowhere near nay soch and is regressive despite targeting a more educated and better informed audience. so in this case, I think it is unfair to expect strong women to like this kind of content.
As of the forum, lets even say there are 500 people here, statistically speaking, it is unlikely that all 500 people will share the same opinion on every single plot or character. I assume all sides have a right to their differing opinion and in fact should post it just to encourage being open minded.

Completely agree with you! This fandom is the most hypocrite fandom ever 🥱 Truth be told this fandom only cares abt certain pair and if we express our disappointment or complain abt storyline or ss, they treat us like we are some villains They simply say they are Ishqbaaaz fans but no one give a damn abt what happens to other two mainleads... Even the audience can see the favoritism and biasness of the producer but sadly these blind so called Ishqbaaaz fans can't One small thing goes wrong with their favs they are ready to bash the writer's even producer but if we just complain we are being stupid ? most hypocrite fandom ever

I don't understand why viewers keep on bashing one thing or the other? can't they just watch the show and enjoy it as a show only...I love ishqbaaaz and each and every character in the show...from sahil to daadi all are awesome...people should enjoy and not waste their time in these bashing an all after all it's just a show...even I get engrose in all tracks that are shown and I love ShivIka a lot...but I even enjoy watching RumYa and ObBros and and the remaining of the show

Opinions differ on everything in this world so its natural for fandoms to have different views
Its just that we (Me included ) become too harsh sometimes and get personal and that not right

Its only a show
