The Norms of Indian Television - Page 3

Guess ur right. Humse galti jogai ki humne disclaimer ka asli meaning nahi samjha!

I fell in love with this show because of AvNeil and crappy or not I am still watching it for AvNeil.

NK started with a bang with Neil and Avni playing leads...no doubt leaving us all enamoured and craving for more of their Magnificance. But lately after Chuhi's entry the plot started becoming a lot repetitive and boring too..

That we all agree -Avneil and Adiza are the only reason to watch. Other good things were neela, Ali and DD. Neela is dead and Ali and DD get very less screen time!

Kyuki trp aunties are more important than well informed youth.

Kyuki, indian youth is supposed to go and study, get a job and work instead of watching television and frittering their time away.

Kyuki the duration of time a show runs is more important than content. And quite frankly, it is extremely misleading, not researched upon, Illogical and insensitive.

But haven't you guys read the disclaimer they put up before the show??

"Yeh dharawahik kalpaniya hai, iska vastawik jivan se koi sambandh nahi hai. Agar kuch sambandh ho jaye to humein khed hai"

Start taking the disclaimer for its value, word by word.

That everything that they will show is beyond tge relams of logic. Will NEVER happen in real world, and if at all by mistake,they show something logical, as would happen in real world, they are going to be extremely sorry for showing it in the first place.

Now, after this are you in a position to question. Obviously no! Because, you, as a young educated adult, are NEVER supposed to question. Maine kaha se pata kiya ye sab??? ITV dekh kar.

Like others have said, there are more norms to ITV. Another issue I have noticed is that all of them focus entirely on the leads, with no subplots added in the show that give screen time to supporting roles. Honestly, supporting characters are given so much more screen time and story in international shows, and their lives don't revolve around the lead(s).

Like everyone I'm a fan of avneil too, but the selling point for me was MB before leap and Avni character post leap. I loved the fact how different a FL they managed to create between all these stereotypes of heroines. Now I'm just so disappointed with all the missions, that I've come to wish for once they would show her being normal. By normal I don't mean cooking or kitchen politics, just be normal enough to discuss everything with her police husband and solve issues realistically, rather being the sacrificial soul...

You are right, ITV sucks at subplots. It's either leads romancing each other, hating each other or plotting against the antagonist.

As you said International shows do a good job of that. One of the shows I've seen in this regard is criminal minds that airs once a week. It's basically a show about FBI agents and solving crimes, but yet they have managed to show the personal stories of each and every character. I wonder when ITV is going to evolve like that...

Criminal minds is my fave show!!!!!!!!!!!! 😃 Love it, but stopped watching it reg from last season when they jailed Reid. Didn't like seeing my baby in jail, but I have to admit the story was really good though. 😆
