Since we are coming close to the end of the week… now what are your takes on the serial so far… here's mine - a longggggggg post!!!

Plenty of money for initial sets + plenty of talent = should not lead to a poor serial but because the creative team are either not talented or overworked it is not seeming all right…

There was an adequate foundation provided for the story even before the character of PRC… we knew his father we knew BD we loved kamlavati and rupsundari we knew his dadima… we even knew about his Guruji but here we know no one not even the main protagonist Dharam… 😕

I know that RT fans are very happy about it RT'e entry and his shamik dresse 😛 But even if you do make a fan serial, i.e. just for RT fans; you need high TRPs to sustain viewer interest… as that brings in revenue – the only way that is possible is if you make sure the quality and story is good

I know plenty of us have many questions with regards to DV and these are reltively simpler things to explain – a few minutes of screen explanation = thousands of satisfied viewers👏….

Shamiks -

1) Imagine how much more beautiful the serial would have been if they started a scene showing a small village where the Shamiks lived in their huts😳. They wake up even before sunrise to get to work in fear of the Avs – some with pickaxes (fields), some dressed as cooks and some with their construction tools… that itself would explain many things i.e. reflect that they have something to do other than constructing the same structures for years together!!!

(The current DV sets do look slightly un-finished if you ask me )

2) If they had spent a few minutes showing Veer's father caring for his pregnant wife and daughter before he leaves for work😳… that very gesture would have immediately bonded us to his character.😭. a scene showing a soldier creating trouble for veer's father would mean that they knew he is the revolting type and he has always caused problems for them…

Ths history of the kings

1) They could have shown an opening scene in a sabha with the sabha complaining about some rumours they heard about jai. Here jai is disrespectful of the assembly. Consequently, the displeased assembly chose arya instead of jai.

2) If Jai was more secretive in what he was doing and bribing the soldiers then arya wouldn't know full truth na😉… and whenever he does learn something abou Jai time and again, they could show arya reprimanding jai for being way word too😛… but at the end of the day he just lets go… because jai is his brother (i.e. a bit of partiality)

Veer being the messiah

a few Shamiks whispering to each other that so and so month (mashi) of so and so year is arriving and so the messiah will be arriving soon😳... but that the messiah's father will die... or something like that... In the palace, even the fortune teller telling the kings "see remember i warned you about the date of the messiah's birth - that is today"

rather than randomly just naming a kid a messiah for no apparent reason.. 😕

Adopting Veer

1) If they showed nivritti secretly going all alone to the lake or just with one daasi that would have been better – she is not going to suicide in front of everyone!!! 😭And there she finds the basket!!

2) If atleast some sort of a celebration was present to welcome Veer😳.. or the kings and queen come seeking Nivritti to the lake worried (as she was in labour and then they received no news of her yet) these small small things explain stuff so much better –

Babies growing up

what about some sort of a sisterly relationship between the queens as they watch their babies fall and grow… 😳

1) What about a few cute scenes of baby veer snatching something from baby dharam and dharam crying while arya and the queens laugh..

2) I was hoping atleast for gurukul scenes.. what about their education? In the gurukul they could have always shown Dharam as being good at his lessons, concentrating and answers lessons, rajnithi etc.. while veer is good at combats and superceeds all other children in sports, Puzzles, games, treasure hunts etc..

Dharam and Veer

Again according to the storyline... dharam and veer are equal contemporaries - their paths separate in life thats all... dharam is quiet, suave, handsome, placid, not ready to mischief slightly more responsible type while veer as the bubbly, naughty, feisty, ready to fight for his rights cute warrior - I am also a big big fan of RT but I really felt Dharam's role should be moulded better… he seems too whiny! He has such a peaceful loveable face and a good actor with no strength in his character at all…. what fun is the serial if we cant watch thakkars between two equals? 😕

Personally I think RT and VM have better chemistry than PRC and his friends – (think of the PRC episodes when they started) but its not being tapped properly. They just including some catchy dialogues which will not work!!!

I so want this serial to do well.. as I am so attached to it because of my friends at IF… because I absolutely love and adore RT (and his jodi with Mug)… Now there is something about vikrant I find nice too (obviously his potential needs to be tapped well by making his character better)…. and I am a BIG TIME sucker for history + romance…

Please yaar don't bring Mugs now… please please don't – it sounds so silly… we dont even know dharam and veer properly.. please dont spoil the romance etc...

please show some more background, take one step at a time and explain happenings better before bringing her in..

Plenty of money for initial sets + plenty of talent = should not lead to a poor serial but because the creative team are either not talented or overworked it is not seeming all right…mm..Lashy di i knoww!!!Tey r givin too much xpectationshopefully Sagar's dont showw teir puraana rang

There was an adequate foundation provided for the story even before the character of PRC… we knew his father we knew BD we loved kamlavati and rupsundari we knew his dadima… we even knew about his Guruji but here we know no one not even the main protagonist Dharam… 😕true😕itss wierd!!!

Ths history of the kings – this is the biggest lacking factor!!! Why did they choose Aryva the stupid instead of Jai the cruel? Did they know about his wayward ways😕? If so then why doesn't arya vardhan know ?xaactlyy....a Raja good for nothing😕i think Jai cud hv been better😆

1) They could have shown an opening scene in a sabha with the sabha complaining about some rumours they heard about jai. Here jai is disrespectful of the assembly. Consequently, the displeased assembly chose arya instead of jai.Hats of to Lashy Queen!!!👏👏howw i wish tis happened!!...😳actuallyy tis shud happen sooner or late!!...cozz or else we will be thinkin Sagar's r lostt of brains😕😆

2) If Jai was more secretive in what he was doing and bribing the soldiers then arya wouldn't know full truth na… and whenever he does learn something abou Jai time and again, they could show arya reprimanding jai for being way word too… but at the end of the day he just lets go… because jai is his brother (i.e. a bit of partiality)yup...partialityy😕donno i juss cant see a dumbo king like him😡

*takes a deep breath*

that was one wholesome post di!! beautifully sorted out the lackings of the serial 👏 👏

I don't think the directors are mud-heads to leave this serial trail away w/o being noticed so some sort of action would be taken at the earliest if not soon(+ there are speculations about them visiting this forum and collecting the reviews.If that's the case then we sure might see a mindblowing change 😊 ).Perhaps they are keen about making sure that they get enough number of audience first.I remember PRC wasn't as exciting in the beginning as it was later.Somewhere,sometime at some point we are sure to come across a pleasing conversion 😳 and I'm very confident about them implementing that.

Secondly I think the serial is increasing its pace way beyond limit as you said.We could have waited for four days to see RT onscreen provided that the commencement of the serial was solid.I've said this many times and I repeat yet again the way they started the serial perfectly hit the wrong note. We were really not eager to see a melancholic drama after months of waiting.

But I still have that ray of hope left where the creative heads can deliver something better and fine,cheerful experience in the very nearby future. 😳

wow abhy agree....👏👏👏...all i can add is probably the low trps than wht prc had during rt times..might give them a hint that..something went seriously wrong, secondly...NDTV imagine shd be available like the leading channels like star or zee....watching Dv over updated videos may not help in adding trp count

where is Geetika...she cud help us out 😳

very well said lash.......
how about making this post sticky?........ I so want the sagars to read it. 😊
Plus other members can post their views without the topic getting lost in oblivion.
Even I felt the sagars were bombarding us with the "Fill in the blanks" type of questions(type I hated most in exams)
