Just a few thoughts on the current storyline.
These days I feel the character which had so much potential to develop & has been mercilessly destroyed after Shagun is Adi's.
As a kid, he was annoying but anyone could understand the reason behind it. But ever since the 1st leap had been introduced, this character seems to suffer from bipolar disorder. Either it's way too sweet or it's devilish.
The environment in which you grow up, plays the most crucial role in developing your personality. But it doesn't necessarily include the family only. There are many people who grow up in a very friendly environment but yet incident faced at school or outside leaves an impression that never goes away.
Aditya Bhalla's character should have been written keeping that in mind.
He had his aunt, his mom & grandparents' love growing up. He had Mihir to show him the right path. Naturally he is expected to become a gentleman. But he also had scars which none could understand. His doting father turned into a stone after his half-mother died. His younger sister was supposedly dead & his half-mother, who within mere 6 months taught him a lot of things & secured him, committed suicide. These scars were enough for him to hate Raman or to have certain amount of grudge against Pihu.
But we saw nothing of that sort. His sweeter than sugar attitude actually irritated the crap out of me because it seemed unnatural.
Then there was a 180 degree change in his behavior when he fall in love with Aliya. Then came competing with Ruhi, getting married to Aliya & in every case either he was extremely soft or was extremely harsh & pathetic with the way of handling the matter & with the people involved.
This recent falling out of love would actually made sense if it was brought out sensibly & gradually. He & Aliya got married way too early & then faced a lot of difficulties where both failed as partner. Aliya couldn't back him up & instead resorted to gambling. While he continued to chant about his responsibility towards his father & his family.
I wouldn't even talk about Roshni but let's suppose he was falling in love with someone else & maintained his decency. One would expect him to hand Aliya over the divorce paper & choose the person who can make him happy. But treating the wife as a doormat & keeping the lover as a mistress was another low.
Not to mention doing fraud in the name of his father.
Now when everyone is hating the character so much, suddenly there's a new spoiler that it's a doppleganger.
Ekta seems to be a firm believer of the seven dopplegangers of a person that in her shows it's really easy to find a duplicate when it's needed. It's the easiest fix for showing & justifying all sorts of crap done by a particular character.
But why??? When you have a huge fandom whom I suppose are descendants of Robert Bruce that they have literally coped up with every rubbish thrown at their faces, why indulging in more & more negativity & then coming up with such easy & idiotic fixes.
Take your time & develop the characters, develop the story. No one is pressurizing you to introduce newer & newer character without substance to eat up the SS. Use them in other shows where it's required. For God's sake let these fictional characters have a peaceful life & spare us from this torture.
