New to the forum - Here's my thoughts :)

Hi everyone! I'm Suha and I LOOOVE Beyhadh (obviously!) My past favourite shows include Manmarzian, Ek Hasina Thi, Dehleez, etc etc... So I've always loved unique and sensible shows like these. Plus, I loved Jennifer Winget in DMG (She felt like the closest replacement of Shilpa/Ohanna!) and Aneri in NAUC (I shipped Nisha and Viraj more than I have ever shipped myself with my crush 😆 Not a single soul in this world was as heartbroken as me and my mother when they made Viraj act all evil and childish like he never was :( But anywayayay!) So here's my two (maybe more 😛) cents about how I feel about the show!
It's gonna be a looong read so please, bear with me! 😛


Maya Mehrotra
has been intriguingly pulling me towards her character - There's something about her that feels oddly familiar to me, maybe it's her no-nonsense attitude, or her display of power in the way she talks and walks. I've always wanted to be so powerful that everyone has to stand up whenever I walk into a room, that's my aim 😆 But not only that, it feels really weird saying this out loud but I suffer from seasonal depression so some of her words and tendencies really do reach out to me. I may not be as extreme as Maya, but I can put myself in her place and understand why she'd do things, especially given her story. I hate it when people call her evil because she's not - Maya isn't evil, she is disturbed. The difference between that is huge but to make it simple, whatever Maya does, she does it because it's the only way she has ever known. With parents like Jhanvi and Ashwin; both of who are nowhere near sane, she has never really seen normalcy closely. And this way she uses - her establishment of power, has always worked. Therefore, she never looked for any other way. I'd really, really hate (and will definitely stop watching) if they make Maya negative because along with being the most cliched thing ever, it would also be very unfair to the story line - just like making Viraj negative and inconsiderate then completely destroying Niraj in NAUC was. There was so much potential in that, like there is here in Maya, and I'd kill me to watch it being ruined! I believe Maya can be cured if she is led to that aid, and I really hope she is, too.

Now, coming to ArYa - I do ship ArYa. I've always been very "I SHIP THEM!!!" about shows because I'm a cheesy little person who loves those lovey-dovey moments between people, it's what makes the show even more enjoyable for me. 😆
When people say Maya will ruin Arjun's life and stuff, it kinda irks me because I think Arjun's love will be one of the most important factors that bring her back to normal, if she doesn't turn negative and the story goes that way. I don't think you guys have watched it, but there's a Bengali movie called "Hemlock Society." It's a movie I hold really close to my heart and it's about a girl who attempts suicide but is saved by a guy who takes her with him then slowly shows her how important life actually is - and part of that process was making her fall in love with him, even though he has a fatal disease. And honestly, love is a beautiful feeling and Maya has never had anything like that, so she is using that only way she knows to keep this going. Maya falling for Arjun wasn't her fault at all because that's a girl who had her walls so high up, she never needed anyone; and even if unknowingly, Arjun kept becoming a part of her life and tbh if I was Maya, I'd fall for Arjun too. She didn't just look at Arjun and fall for him because he had a pretty face, no - she fell for him because he gave her the strength she couldn't muster up even after all those years of facing the same fears. Maya needs help that could bring her out of this darkness and no one around her has ever been sane enough to take that step towards the help - I really hope Arjun becomes that person and leads her to the counseling and medication she needs, to get out of this mess.

About Saanjh
- I really liked Saanjh in the beginning, she seemed very sensible and smart and it was nice to see. But slowly, she turned a bit annoying - It was her and her family (and Arjun's Mum too) seeing Maya as some third person who snatched away Arjun. I don't think it was Maya's fault Saanjh didn't confess her feelings earlier, and so Maya was the first to get through to Arjun. I don't hate Saanjh, but her reluctance about certain things feels untrue to her character to me. Moreover, I can't picture Saanjh and Arjun as a couple. I don't know what it is, but something never feels settled when it comes to them.
Saanjh and Arjun are soulmates, platonic love at its purest, just the perfect friendship. But that's all I see there. And I really hope Saanjh gets over Arjun because I know the love runs deep and far, but he takes her for granted and she's generally a great girl who deserves a guy that loves her from the first glance, taking in her kindness and chirpiness. And honestly, Saanjh has that backing - If she makes up her mind to get over Arjun (which she almost did!) her family will be right there, supporting her and doing everything in their might to help her through it. So I hope she takes advantage of that and ends up with someone a lot better, who loves her for who she is, not because she has been there throughout his whole life or helped him (Ayaan/New entry maybe)! It's just not fair to her to be suffering like this, neither is it logical. Instead, I hope she'll help Arjun if he tries getting Maya back to normal, because she seems like that level-headed person; even though it seems like Arjun takes better decisions sometimes but then again, character development is a good thing. 😛

Basically, my ideal story line/ending would be this:
We get to see Maya's "Beyhadh-ness" (that's what gives us all the thrills! 😉) and at a point, Arjun and Saanjh help Maya get out of this state of mind she's stuck in, while Saanjh ends up with someone who actually deserves her - with the moral of the story being that problems like these aren't always indestructible and the people suffering don't necessarily have to be disdained or isolated from the whole community or called pagals. 😊


And lastly, SORRYYY for such a long post! I've thought about penning down my thoughts but never got around to it... But today, after seeing Maya's scene when she's rocking back and forth and trying her best to stay in control, I really couldn't hold back because that scene really touched my heart. I hope you all enjoyed my post and if you did, please do leave a comment! I'd love to get acquainted with you all 😃
Hope you all have a lovely day ahead, thank you for reading it all if you have 😛 xx

Hey girl! Welcome to the forum!!!
What's your name?
I'm Isha...
i also hate it when people say she will ruin Arjun's life! Like come on, she has given everything of hers to him. And if she does what I feel is that Maya will probably hurt Arjun but unintentionally... cuz for her loving someone is like owning them. She wants to keep them protected and keep them to herself. In the process of being crazily in love, she won't realize that Arjun may feel suffocated in the relationship cuz she is always up his a** lol
But other than that I want Arjun's love to be a transformation phase for Maya. Something that will teach her to trust and love. She doesnt trust anyone which is the reason why she wants to control everyone and make sure they don't betray her. I mean the girls own mother betrayed her so I'm pretty sure she won't trust anyone that easily
Other than that in the episode today she was literally begging for love.
the poor girl is literally begging for love. She is like a person standing midway through a dark tunnel, one side is light and the other side is darkness. She is extending her hand towards light but the darkness keeps sucking her back. It's sad to see that such parents exist :(
I just want a happy ending for our Maya baby, don't care who ends up with who at this point. She seriously deserves love after all these years of torture and betrayal. And if arya do stay together then I hope that they are able to find happiness in each other :)

A warm welcome from Beyhadh wasis 🤗
I am ash (short name which everybody calls me), Extremely amazing post with the very first time. I say this a lot and you will too read in my comments that both girls (Maya and Saanjh) have stark contrast from growing up to loving a guy immensely. Only problem is Saanjh is still very lucky her family is mature enough to support, give her courage to move on unlike Maya who has see nothing other than darkness. But that does not mean Saanjh should not get love, of course she needs love from a life partner. All I say is that both girls need a guy who are very mature and sensible not just in giving in love but value and respect them. Arjun is shown as grown up man in front of Maya but for Saanjh he is just a best friend with whom he can share his happiness, tears but sharing life is kind of odd I guess. There is not equal competent between Saanjun to be life partners. Arjun too needs a girl who can teach him discipline rather than pampering him all the time.

Sorry for this post but enjoyed reading your post. Be active with us 😊 because real beyhadh is starting now and will make us beyhadh crazy

Welcome to the forum! I am Mandy. Agree with almost everything you said. I am at work so can't write a long reply. But Beyhadh is such these days I am tempted to check the forum when I have a minute.

Glad you posted and glad to see a lot of people with good balanced views coming through. I like ARYA too, but I am realistic about how this may end. Your right an ideal ending would be Arjun and Saanjh both helping Maya over come her Beyhadhness! Saanjh should end up with someone else. That makes it even more perfect! Arjun can find a totally different person, end with Maya or even alone!

Hi Suha..
I am Sonali..
So nice to see you here.
Loved your post dear.
Infact it feels you have written exactly what i feel and hope about the show. Word by word i can agree with you. I myself feel so dissapointed when ppl call her evil. Bcoz what i see in her manipulations is a lonely and insecure girl who dont want to loose her closed ones. She doesnot knw anyothr way to secure her love so she uses what she knows best. Without maya i feel show is nothing.
And about sanjh, i am heavily dissapointed with her nowdays. Inspite of having all thats needed to emerge strong from a heartbreak, she choses to stay in pain. I understand her reluctance to leave Arjun, but not once she thinks about her family pain. Her family mainly her father is broken inside to see their daughter sad and in pain.
I would really like to see her move on, become strong and thn do exactly what a best frnd does. That is to support their frnd till the end. If maya turns out in depression or whatever, she instead of jumpimg with guns, must calmly handle Arjun abd find ways how to understand maya problems and hlp to give her desired cure. Maya is her bestfrnd love. Evn if she is not ok, separating arjun from her will give pain to arjun also. So why not to help her best frnd handle his love lifr calmly.

Anyways, if i start writing i wont stop. So i m leaving it here.
Looking forward to see more of ur posts here.
Have a good day..

Hiii Isha, my name is Suha 😃 And yes yes I thought of that point but forgot to add it! She would hurt herself before hurting Arjun, and if/when she does hurt him, it won't be on purpose!! And exactly, she said she doesn't trust anyone but herself because let's face it, she's been surrounded by idiots all her life 😡 So I hope Arjun shows her that there's ways to be content with what she has now :') You said it very well 👏

Thaaank you sosososo much Ash ❤️ Exactly my point! Saanjh has the support Maya never got and she can really move on and get someone who really does love her and doesn't treat her like crap 😕 You've written it perfectly - To Saanjh, Arjun is childish but to Maya, he's so mature and affectionate and just so sensible! And please don't say sorry! I surely will be active from now on, can't wait to see what ups and downs we get to enjoy on this thrilling Beyhadh ride! 😃😆

Thaaank you for the welcome and the kind words! 😃 Me too, I love seeing people's different opinions on things and especially what everyone thinks about the symbolism in certain scenes! And yesss, if it's not ArYa in the end then I'd like Maya to find someone else who understands where she comes from. And if it ends like a cliffhanger like in EHT (which I, by the way, LOOOVED because it was so unique from all the other daily soaps!) then I'll actually be happier 😆 Beyhadh is all about mystery and that'd be so apt 😛

Hi Sonali 😊 Thank you 😳 Exactly, she has never seen any other way because apparently her Mother lured Ashwin in in the same way, and she has gotten everything she has being the way she was. So being all selfless and kind was never an option for her! And same here, I feel bad for Saanjh's family because more than her, it hurts them to see her hurting. And who is she hurting for? Someone who doesn't understand her value and is in love with someone else? If she wants to stand by Arjun then she has to be there and not just choose to be away. She already tried taking that option once and ran back the moment Arjun said he can't go on without her... What about her family who were letting her go abroad when it'd be so hard for them to live without her? I just found it very unfair to them. 😕
Same here, if I start writing, it'll never end 😛 I shall be more active and post a lot more, surely! You have a good day too 🥱
