To The Ones Not So Dear ...

Writers !!! For time being ...
I would like to begin with the characters penned and executed in Ishqbaaz
So after Asad Ahmed Khan, Arnav Singh Raizada ... We have another obvious Gul Khan pick to drool over ... Shivaay Singh Oberoi ...
This time it was different because it was not just one but three men to lead the story... Brothers is what they said ...

Talking about the youngest Rudra ... He was the one school girls went gaga over ... Even the sketch of his character not new for Indian television ...

And finally I come to the point talking about Omkara ... The addict, the heart broken ... The artist .
I was bowled over by his intensity because to put up a character like him on Indian prime time TV is business quite risky!
The devastating truth about his parent's relationship and the fact that it affected him so much, his fear of holding on, his addiction to intoxication ... All of this was quite bold for TRP aunties but it felt good to see such foreign concept ...
I liked IshKara, as they were introduced and meant to be ... The girl cheating his heart into love ... Their possible love story seeming heart breakingly real ... But that never happened ...
Them came his long term friend Ridhima ... I personally did not like them that much and kind of knew that they were not going to be end game ... Adding was his phobia of commitment ...
It was Svetlana's turn now ... Bold move in the script ... Omkara was so not the ideal ... Raja Beta of Indian TV ... But that felt a different kind of good always ... When he decided to handle his father' s mistress ...

And after all the chaos ... We ultimately have Gauri ... His wife!
Frankly speaking ... I did not like how her character shaped up after all the Bareilly drama ...

On married her ... But then started acting so "Daily Soap Hero" types ... He had changed ... Even when out of pain ... It was not for good and about Gauri ... They will never let us forget their anytime love for ... The damsel in distress, do they ???
RiKara deteriorarated at a rate quite disgusting ... Gauri's character was and is very weak to handle the depth of Om's intensity ...

I know heroines being bhartiya in nationality will always have a Desi touch but Gauri with the Bareilly background was not something I was expecting for Omkara ... He deserved someone who is equivalent and right now Gauri is clearly not the one.

The producers made us dream so big with the first ever spin off on Indian television ... About Omkara's story ... Knowing how complex he was .. hopes were high! And they ended up failing trying hard to make another version of Shivaay out of him ...

That was not needed for sure...
I strongly feel it is denied justice to the character of Omkara ... Even Rudra for that matter in the name Dil Boley Oberoi. Something way better would have come out if they did not fail to forget the authentic Omkara ... His story was supposed to be different and now its quite ruined.

Better late than never they say ... The writers have one of their last chance on saving Dil Boley Oberoi after pushing it in lapse because of Ishqbaaz ... They have to bring back the emotional but at the same time drained Omkara Singh Oberoi to life ...
They have to make Gauri stronger so that its not
ending on her self respect - from corpse to ashes

I request to all the ones responsible for Dil Boley Oberoi to save their Show from being drowned within given time... This is not going good... We all know that Shivaay has brought you laurels, Arnav is one of your all time favorites ... But Omkara deserves a fair chance ... He is different please don't drag him insanely into something repetitive ...
Please give Gauri a makeover ... Inside out ... She has to come across stronger, deserves a change in accent and has to have a makeover ...

Drawing comparisons between Anika and Gauri will never be fair but Gauri deserves at least 10% of what Anika received ... There does not need to be dragged storyline. Gauri is meant to be different because she is meant for Omkara

This is one last chance writers, think about all the invested money, save your show and save yourselves ... Take the risk of being different ... Its so totally worth it...
Choice being yours

Ps- I have loved all the actors of IB and DBO team, its genuinely not about them ... Its about the script.

Thank u for the beautiful post.

Yes Omkaara as a character is new to Indian television. If it was an experiment, the makers definitely have hit the bull's-eye. Among all the characters of parent show his character is most loved.

I personally feel more than his love story, he as a character needs to be explored . He was a multi layered character and in the name of love story makers are hell bent on making him uni dimensional. The guy who has risen from a scratch is portrayed as weak now. How can a person be weak who has defeated his inner demons on his own to rise up? May be shivaay was the one who admitted him in rehab but at the end of the day it was his own strength that made him overcome the tough phase of his life.

My request to makers is please stop spoiling your own creation. Hire good script writers if u r running out of ideas and stop being biased.

Absolutely true @Haalim ... Kunal as an actor deserves better, Omkara the character deserves better ... He was cult, so new ... So fresh yet so raw ... It is a fact that before a love story ... His individuality had to be explored ...

But as we know about the constitutionalization of romance in Hindi serials ... It was quite obvious that he will have a heroine ... I so desperately want them to change the perspective of Gauri

She needs to be edgy, bold and so not forgiving ... Omkara as a man is way ahead from the milestone of having the ideal Desi bahu ... He has come to deserve some one so mean that his world gets ripped apart ... So that he is able to recognize himself as the disastrous monster ...

DBO so deserves a fair chance ... It has managed to create a fandom ... People are eager to invest their time into watching it... Then why are the producers up to wasting their money !

I feel that for them the mills and boons kind of "arrogant guy poor girl" scripting is safe way through ... As they are concerned about TRP providing couch potatoes ... For the fandom it is injustice !

I would disagree on 2 lines
Omkaara hasnt brought laurels?
bec if it is anything the character Omkara and Rudra forced a spin off that is proof of popularity
PS: I know ur Shivika fan , but to just say Shivaay brought the makers laurels and not Om is putting character down
Infact the obvious makers nevr thought Om could be popular and thus neglected him and even now they never thought with such pathetic storyline 2 good acotrs could lift mediocre scnes and make jodi popular and hence sautela pan

Random does it happen in Indian tv that ppl like character and sit through bullshit for that character
Look at rival show Kasam starting with trp of 2 it has gone down to 0.9 but look here with such pathetic storyline Om still manages trp

IMO it is wrong to say he didnt bring laurels to production house bec if it wasnt for Om spin off would not have happeneed

@ChannaMeraya ... I feel I owe you apologies because you kind of his understood me ... First of all I am not a ShivIka Fan ... Had that been ... I would have not made this post!
Its not actually about me trying to put Omkara down ... I just said it that way because I feel ... The other projects I.e IB and IPKKND3 are getting care, attention and promotion ... DBO truly deserves it on the same lines ... I admit it is just because of the consistent actors ... Only two of them trying to put up a show worth watching... It was so absolute them that the PH was able to bid their stakes on the spin off ... And now see what has the condition of especially the scripting of the baby show come to be ... I am sorry again ... But please don't misunderstand my point of view

Agree kunal and Omkara both deserve better.

Gauri definitely needs grooming. Look at initial episodes of DBO she was complimenting omkaara as the character. Looks wise and acting wise they are still perfect, but gauri's character needs changes.

Omkara from the beginning is seen as a very dominating character, so gauri with current character portrayal is not standing anywhere. Cvs need to work on both characters now. Let the love story wait.

Oh may be I misunderstood my apologies
The problem is very clear makers are not interested I am amazed that DBO even get trp of 1.4 which IMO is major achievement with such crap storyline , had it not been such good actors this show would shit shop and gul would have blamed actors just like how she blamed Ishkara for low trps with just 10 scenes😆
I dunno what it takes for others to understand but guls favouritism is obvious she never wanted om or rudra to be as popular as thy became even rikara , It is only bec of may be director and actor that show is running
Gul was and is always biased towards Shivika
And Omru are sautela so watever we get is just a bonus
Even writer Harneet havent u seen her tweet always and always about Shivika this and that never about Rikara
I really wish SP takes matter in own hands bec even thy must realise this show with such bad story is getting them such good trps so better thy buck up and do something as they actually like Om -gauri much more than producers

@Haalim let's wait and watch what does the time lapse hold for us ... It is quite not okay for me that they don't come up with a promo of DBO time lapse solely promoting the parent show ... I am okay even when they don't want to groom Gauri but the least she deserves is a change in attitude ... RiKara as an officially in love couple or proper husband and wife ... Have a long way to go ... But I am still waiting for the promo ... After all they are brothers whose decisions affect each other ... And time changes for the whole world

They had shot the promo. Why isn't it coming up?

And yeah let's hope for some miracle in storyline after lapse.

@ChannaMereya
First of all I am relieved ... Thank you 😊
And about favoritism, if it was so ... I wonder what made her put so much money in the first ever spin off ... If it was for ShivIka and their IB screen space ... She could have just sidelined OmRu like she has previously done with the characters of her other show ... The concrete point is Omkara, Rudra, Gauri, Bhavya have managed to keep the show going even in such circumstance ... Fans have a big role to play ... I have always liked Omkara the character ... Even before DBO ... Even before Gauri and now it is heart breaking for me to see him lose his essence 😒
