I thought i was the only weird person to think that way but looks like you also thought the exact same issue..Means if it was a show where Anika was shown as some super filmstar like deepika potrayal in OSM or dream girl potrayal that every male fanatize then it would have been okay..This is serious serious illogical fantasy plothole. Veer havent even talked with anika yet he started to fanatize so much about her..similarly vikram..daksh case atleast one can understand that overtime spending time with anika and his own mental problem he became such a creep 😆..but seriously unless and unless anika spray some pheremone or have some mutant power of attraction, this attraction/creep game is getting very repititive. I know world is not without creeps and education and status have no part in deciding creep level but the extent of creepiness and fetishness the guys show for anika it seems like anika is next level cleoparta.


Exactly. Daksh actually met her and had a conversation or two with her and even saw how attracted Shivaay was to Anika before making her his mark. Here Svetlana showed Veer Anika's photo and he went from 0% not interested to 100% full obsessed "I need to make her mine" mode😆

It would have been better if say maybe his interested was 'piqued' by seeing her picture. And then having the obsession take hold after a few interactions with her. Here he got obsessed with her before he even saw her in person😆. All because they wanted to rush into the Raavan track

Yes a mix of interaction plus pic would still be more logical or like someone mentioned before shivaay business rival/partner slowly and slowly falling for anika was the best scenario without coming across as creep. well ages ago in EKTA 3rd most iconic daily soap- kasauti (after tulsi & parvaty saga), mr.bajaj (Ronit Roy) did fell for prerna slowly and slowly even after knowing she love/married to anurag Basu and didn't came across as creep. Infact it was one of the few rare serial where female protagonist end up spending whole life with villain turned grey shade to second lead Mr.bajaj than main male lead Anurag Basu (he was alive and kicking).more I see gul direction (qh/dbo/ib), more I feel EKTA was better at a similar early stages of career ..till 2005-06 atleast (even if she was producing daily soaps)..EKTA did deteriorate eventually but in gul case it has started relatively early

Ekta has been around a long time, but over the years has been forced to re-evaluate and adapt her shows and her storylines as a result of the changing preference of the viewership. In that sense, she is better because she keeps the audience in mind with her shows - hence she's still at the top of the charts after so many years. Gul is stubborn, she wants to take a more progressive approach with her shows initially which I really like, but she invariably sways from the original plotline of the story. Such as introducing the NB sisters during the early days of Shivika's marriage. Or that weird Mahi angle.

I feel like the poor business sense behind this PH is also partly to blame for the declining quality of IB

Yeah, that's why I was so hot and cold with this track. It reminded me of the QH days, which was not filled with fond memories for me😆

Darling Ruby ... for all the reasons you listed on your post and many more I did go off ,as you mentioned in your PM to me, on a self imposed 'Vanvas. The whole track was a major... major disappointment and it was only updates from Mav and Ruzzie that kept me, if at all, connected and informed.

Besides, I am sure many would agree, the whole environment has kinda gotten toxic and that has also been a huge disappointment.
I may peek occasionally and venture into safe posts like yours to comment so that I can be sure of being able to speak my mind without the fear of being bashed ...lol

You managed to lure me back for a peek out of sheer curiosity that YOU made a post ... 😆

Hello to all that have missed me and I promise all that are reading THG-WTHW that I intend to continue and finish the story.

And it only took 2 weeks for you to make that peek, nice😆


Yes, considering all the possibilities that were possible for this vanvaas, the fact that this direction was chosen is pretty much mind-boggling. As far as the thread goes, it's why I tried to make the thread as neutral as possible, I figured everyone could use a safe space to speak lol

That, and because I was reminded that I hadn't followed up on my promise to a good friend to create an IF thread. Finally did it, now I'm done😆
