just the kumkum parts which is just repitiion..abhi drives pragya from the breakfast table...she selects a jacket for him and he refuses to take it...eventually does,,,pragya gets a phone call that shristi is in jail she goes to save her...she finds out from khan chacha that there is a bomb...preeta comes with her bag that she left behind and she tells her what happened...they all go to save abhi...no one answers the phone because the phones had to be left wit security,,?????,,,abhi dreams pragya coming to him the usual imagination..precap pragya holds a gun to abhi and tells him not to play the guitar he drops to the floor...

mahasangam episodes are really nothing to look forward too and this is not a kumkum bhagya maha episode but a kundali bhagya one.. fooled us as usual..

I have given myself pat on back.😃 grateful that I tuned Zee mainly during last 5 mins to watch Tisha's act shown as abhigya dream dance on stage. (as expected, nothing new)


After seeing last two KKB1000 promos centered around guitar blast attack of Simonica and Preeta hogging limelight as newly ascended sister, and then knowing about this weeks precaps and then having read and watched how much Abhi & Pragya's characters got ruined by able writers/cvs especially in the last 2 weeks off-sync, meaningless, annoying KKB episodes, glad I could see thru what's coming up in the name of 15th Jan celebrations..😵 was reasonable enough and avoided ruining my mood by NOT tuning to Zee, though at home.😊


Heard that first 3 hrs of so called 1000 celebration episode had NOTHING to do with KKB story or its theme or past moments or Abhigya journey as boasted. So in reality Abhigya as a couple barely got 5 mins screen time together in entire 4 hrs marathon. If this was dedicated MAINLY to 9.30pm show KDB, its current plot and its new characters with Pragya from KKB getting used in a guest role into their current happenings..👎🏼 then couldn't Zee & Balaji plan instead for a KDB100 maha episode of 3 hrs duration on some other day showing Pragya from KKB making a guest appearance to solve their issues? 😕


But what did Balaji team finally achieve? Now most 9.30pm KDB regular viewers wouldn't have dreamt that KKB 1000 celebrations special episode will have 3 out of 4 hrs allocated only for their show's plot and characters, in such case they probably missed major happenings..🤔 Now there are lots of KKB viewers who DON'T yet know who this Preeta, Shristi, Rishab, Karan, Sherlyn, Prithvi etc. characters are, what their story is, what's currently happening in 9.30pm Kundali show so they couldn't obviously grasp proceedings thus cursing the crew for forcing them to sit thru and watch another show..So which show's viewers and fans did Zee & Balaji teams manage to entertain, engage or satisfy in the end?? 😕 forget about saying shukriya to loyal KKB viewers for following 1000 episodes religiously.


I said this even earlier, over hype is risky. 4 hrs marathon of 1000 shukriya on a weekday promoted excessively with promos/clips/pics using well made dance anthem & Abhigya journey moments both online and on TV.. now it got so much overhyped by Zee only to be foiled by Balaji crew who FOOLED long time 9pm viewers who have been loyal to this 3.5 yrs old show big time? 😔 was that a let off or purposely done to make people disengage further with 9pm show and also to elevate them to 9.30pm show instead??

Thanks ann. Yes, agree with the opinions on forum, it is an eyewash and it was KDB mahasangam and not KKB's. How can the writers fool us even for the 1000 episode shukriya event, was not so much hype given for Abhigaya, but it looked like they came in for promoting KDB and not to thank the audience for their 1000 episodes. Even from Tisha's interview, I was under the impression that we will be seeing lots and lots of their scenes, but no not at all. As usual it is the viewers who get fooled, the writers must be used to it because they have reached the 1000 episodes mainly by fooling the audience with Tisha to do the patch up to carry them forward.
Has not KDB stolen enough of KKB's time and casts and maintaining the top position to be given so much space and time even now. The KDB story is actually not at all to the standard of maintaining within top 5 position at all, it is the Arora ladies, Preeta, Karan and Rishab who are carrying the story forward with good actors playing their roles. So, the writers have now used up this 1000 episode celebration to make sure KDB also goes in that direction.


It was really pathetic to see Pragya entering Arora household and sealing her position as the eldest sister after being neglected for so long. I think Sarla maa was not so emotional even on Bulbul's death as she was about Preeta's imprisonment.

The emotional bonding of the sisters and Pragya/Karan scene were the interesting bits of the episode.

So, as usual a great disappointment mahasangam. The KDB team must be really happy to have been in the limelight instead of KKB.

Good evening girls !!!! Hope all of you are having a blast with festivities.😊
Thanks Ann for the heads up👍🏼. I ended up watching, most of it in FF mode as I didn't understand the heads or tails of the other show.

What did they call it? Is this the KKB at 1000 episodes😡? That was a complete wash. We saw most of the other show, I didn't have a clue on what is going on. Is this supposed to be a celebration of Abhi, Pragya relationship?😡 What did we end up seeing, Abhi condemning Pragya away as she was about to eat, saying that the table is reserved for family only, not dhokebaaz😡 people while the actual dhokebaaz is sitting there gobbling away and enjoying the show he is putting up for them. I know Pragya didn't do good either, but the hypocrisy/double standards of these above words are beyond caustic😡🤢I don't know what the point is for this 4hr marathon😕 But I have to say, Pragya did a lot, I mean, A LOT today from start to finish🤔.

I just have a few comments on the other show. That woman playing Preeta ( don't know her name ) looked too mature, I don't know about her acting either, not impressed . I am wondering if we are sure what the birth order is. Is Pragya truly the eldest? Are we sure the stupid baba didn't abscond with alternating birth order kids? The tall one is much more tolerable, seemed to make a good younger sister. That Karan Luthra guy's equation with Pragya is warm, but with Abhi he had some kind of an attitude😕Why is he overtly contemptuous with Abhi? Is he insecure? He sounded very stupid cutting off Abhi with some impolite nonsense😡. I actually liked his interaction with Pragya. This guy could make a good and believable younger brother to Pragya❤️. A bindi wala Simonica is pretty👍🏼. Finally, isn't that inspector one of the goon guys from recent jungle kidnap as well as Sangram's adda?

Sarla maa, pathetic responses as a mother to Pragya and Bulbul. It is Pragya who was emotional thinking about Bulbul when the whole family is together. I am not saying there should be a specific order in who feels for Bulbul, but just saying, I would have expected a mother to be more sad or missing Bulbul than Pragya😭. Pragya almost resigned herself😭 to the background as she watched how the two new sisters and Sarla maa interacted.

OK, now onto KKB. We talked about Abhi not letting Pragya sit or eat at the table, he passed an order that nobody should talk to her, she won't partake in any of the celebrations of "his" family. I don't know guys, he says the table is reserved for family, which contains the 🤬.I am thoroughly disgusted by this. If you think objectively, from his end, what was the crime committed by " Munni"? She admitted she was Munni and walked away from KC, came back " acting" as Pragya, but he thought she was Munni and she stated she was Pragya, didn't force him to believe her. Then snake episode, Sangram happened, she was still Munni for him, and she didn't refute much. Suddenly, he decides she is his Pragya, she continues to deny she is Pragya, and said some stupid stuff, so he again decides she is Munni. I am dizzy writing this up🤢So in the end, it is him thinking of her either as Pragya or Munni that brought so much happiness or angst for him , nothing that she has done additionally. Oh my God !!! How do we stabilize this guy? What additional dhoka is he talking about other than what is happening since KC? Did I miss something in the last week when I didn't watch? Abhi's pendulum has swung so wildly, I am getting a "peeking over the cliff "kind of vertigo

Abhi's mood is so incongruous and so is Daadi's. He was mad, to despondent to deliriously happy in a span of few minutes talking to Rishab in the car. I was agitated as he had to be again told what a great human being his wife is by some outsider, at the cryptic pokes by Purab about what to expect from his Pragya di, a complete commitment from her side to her family and nothing less❤️ as Abhi looks on as confused as ever. It irritates me that somebody always has to hold Abhi's hand to help peel away the thick rind that forms on his gray matter in every single track, takes about a whole year for this rind to be peeled off, only to form a new and even thicker one😡😭💔 I am not happy with Pragya either, for how she considers herself disposable yet omnipotent to do everything on her own😡. These two are falling apart in front of our eyes😭.

I didn't watch any of the performances in the end as I didn't like how most of the actors looked or dressed. Is there really a Abhi, Pragya performance in that blue Cinderella looking gown? I saw the very last one with the pale yellow gown.Both of them looked amazing. RS wife gets to wear a plain saree while secretary wears a fabulous gown😡 Bravo directors for that😡

Finally, I don't know what the point is for this 4 hr show. It seems like most of it is the other show with very occasional snippets of KKB, touted as 1000 episode celebration. I have to agree with all of you, what I saw is the promotion of other show under the guise of celebration of this show. And I saw Pragya slogging away, saving her sister, Karan Luthra, and finally trying to save Abhi. She is one busy bee today❤️, but she is still crazy. I WANT HER TO STOP ACTING, she is only creating trouble for herself, sadness to Abhi and nothing else💔

I don't know if I made sense guys😕. If any of you haven't watched the marathon, it is a waste of time. Please let me know if there is that dance in pale blue gown, if any of you have watched. I may have completely missed it.

Guess other than Simonica & Purab remaining old KKB characters who have been continuing with the show last 3 to 3.5 yrs didn't even get proper screen time in this entire 4 hrs marathon named kkb1000 shukriya, 😳 what can be said when Tisha as Abhigya together got just about 5 mins screen time in whole event that supposedly is their celebration and original hero RS Abhi himself hardly got used in a meaningful manner though plot got planned around his Rock concert.

Coming to KDB, I never follow that show. But few days back while surfing thru channels one scene going on Zeetv caught my attention, having seen Sarla ma with two girls in police station getting all hyper, my eyes got drawn to a police inspector in that scene. This is the same actor who played Sangram's right hand Haryana bhaisa in KKB. He is the same guy who was part of goons team who created havoc and tied up Mehra's & Sarla during Dishrab wedding in MM. Same guy who very recently tied up Abhigya & Dishrab again in Haryana and the one who got fooled by Abhi.😆 There was also a lady police who played Mehra family doctor in KKB whom Sarla met earlier outside Abhigya bedroom. Understandable its same Balaji production house so they may rotate some junior actors here and there on their shows, but claiming to be a spinoff using some common characters like Sarla & Rodadi in both shows and when working on creating maha sangams these kind of goof-ups indicate how much crew lacks in attention and co-ordination rather than an oversight.


Another thing that was highlight in same scene was Sarla introduces meri badi beti Preeta and meri choti beti Shristi to that inspector.Then who are Pragya and Bulbul to her?? what's their importance in her life? 😒 Did this lady even care to check on how Pragya was and what she has been going thru in MM after returning alive, where was she when Pragya was fighting for life alone on hospital bed after sucking snake poison? Did she ever enquire about dangers Abhi & Purab repeatedly encountered in the past few months?😕 But she suddenly remembers and needs Pragya's help to fix a new daughter's life issues as her motherly instincts are strong??

Zee hosted a fresh party in a Mumbai star hotel for kkb1000 while mahasangam was on air yesterday night. This celebration started in Dec first with Ekta's bash in pub and is still on exactly a month later.😃

Wish the fun, enjoyment, parties, dances, celebrations that KKB cast & crew have been subject in the past one month in addition to their work,could have been more relatable if it translated in few real episodes of KKB that got telecast right from 1000 till now. This could have made loyal viewers following this show religiously during last 3.5 yrs gets similar pangs of enjoyment also gratified and excited while looking at content, plots and characters..😳

mili,

Seeing that mahasangam promo scene in temple with Preeta hogging limelight most of us have also opined the same. Sriti and Shradda don't look like sisters on screen..😳 Sriti & Mrunal had a natural flair and their camaraderie as onscreen sisters Pragya & Bulbul came out so naturally that globally majority viewers could instantly have an emotional connect with them that has sustained till now..👍🏼


Shraddha who plays role of Preeta in KDB is a fair, good looking, talented actress and is pretty experienced (has been acting from say 2005?)


But importantly in no angle Sriti looks like Shradda's elder sister even if her styling is poor or she gets shown as a bespectacled plain jane girl, its clear case of mis-casting. Balaji team was supposed to cast an actress who looks like young unmarried, fresher, physiotherapist Preeta from a small town who lands newly in Mumbai first time with little sister in order to make a living and search for her mother and also to fit convincingly as an younger sister of a simple matured ex-professor Pragya from Mumbai who is married to a rich RS Abhi.😛 Currently Shradda looks bit pale and matured when compared to her earlier show Tumhari Pakhi, where she fitted her role well and also had good onscreen chemistry with Iqbal Khan. She may now look more appropriate for onscreen bahu, housewife, single mother or divorcee kind of roles rather than young early 20's girl, so when she is shown hugging or calling Pragya as didi as her younger unmarried sister, it definitely looks superficial onscreen.


Similarly while Mehra family onscreen always got shown possessing tall genes, Arora family has always got shown with average or short height genes. So bringing one 6 ft tallest girl as third daughter Shristi of Sarla also looks ill-matched. 😳 Dheeraj who plays cricketer Karan in KDB also seems like some short slim cute young boy, fresh from college and looks quite younger than Shradda. May be Ekta wanted to build a pair of younger brother loves older sister with an age difference, hence this kind of casting.😕 Otherwise Balaji team and Ekta have mostly been good in casting suitable leads for their TV shows all these years and also picking up perfect onscreen lead pairs.😛

Mili, you have nailed in all your emotions perfectly. This was all the bottled up emotions we felt while watching the maha episode patiently. Abhi and Pragya are exactly as you had pointed out. We loyal audience want to see some pleasant change in Abhigaya relationship, not the same type of behavior they had been showing till now. Abhi has been made to oscillate between bright and dull mode as when required by the writers. It is high time, Abhigaya develop their husband and wife relationship. They seem to be still lacking in trust with Pragya hiding the truth half the time and Abhi unable to figure her out half the time, when will they behave like husband and wife and move freely with each other both emotionally and physically.
And mili and LA2725, agree wholeheartedly with you both about the new Arora sisters and Sarla's new bonding with them. Pragya and Bulbul had such good chemistry as sisters both in their nature and dressing fitting into the middle class setup beautifully. And with Pragya, Preeta's mismatch as younger sister was even more obvious and Shristi also, though her childish behavior makes her more suitable as an younger sister even if taller than Pragya. But Pragya looked so small in between these two. Actually, as stated, Karan looks more suitable as an younger brother for Pragya.

It is still a mystery to me how KDB is maintaining the top position, maybe because if no interesting shows in other channels during that time slot. There may be some good actors in it but no strong story base. Sherlyn and Prithvi from what I saw in between, look similar to Tanu, unwanted pain.

All in all, we have been very badly cheated.
