Ekta interview

Ekta Kapoor on Ishita being repeatedly called barren on Yeh Hai Mohabbatein: In a journey called life, people do hit you where it hurts the most | Wireler

Yeh Hai Mohabbatein noticed another dramatic tracks just lately where Ishita (Divyanka Tripathi) was the goal of a lot of hate from followers. It occurred after Raman (Karan Patel) humiliated Ishita after Adi's (Abhishek Verma) dying. In one among the scenes he reminded how she was an infertile girl who would by no means perceive the worth of motherhood. This enraged followers as the present has at all times proven Ishita as the good mother. BollywoodLife caught up with Ekta Kapoor for an unique chat and he or she stated, "It has been 1,600 episodes. I don't know whether to be happy or sad that people are still talking about Yeh Hai Mohabbatein. The love they have for it is overwhelming. But that does not mean that you will call my creative head takla (bald). People are body-shaming, face-shaming, cursing family members and that is not cool. I can take on 100 PewDiePie's and people who say that I make shit shows but when people get personal, I cannot take it. Fan groups, at times, do not know where to draw the line. Yeh Hai Mohabbatein was made to promote the fact that if a woman is physically incapable of having child, it does not mean that she cannot become a mother. But in a journey called life, at times, people will hit her where it hurts the most. On such occasions, the strength comes from within to fight back. To sell a Utopian world where no will tell anything to Ishita would be a lie. In our lives, we have all overcome our demons to reach somewhere but there will be times when people will throw our past at us. It is wrong to say that a character cannot be told this. If you do everything for your child and he does not bond with you, people will pinpoint that out. Ishita and Ruhi's relationship has been the perfect example of a mom and daughter bond. People have loved Ishita and now it is not cool to say anything to her. It is not going to be that easy because that is life.

When we requested her if she felt that people had been upset as Ishita supported Roshni (Vidisha) who was truly having an extra-marital affair with Adi. "I don't think Ishita supports infidelity. Her point is if the marriage is not working, then end it. She feels it is as much Adi's fault as Roshni's. It is not cool to target women. She also told her son it is wrong. We did not have her abusing Roshni, she opines. We hope this solutions a lot of questions of the YHM fan teams. Stay tuned to BL for extra scoop and updates!

She never did say that if husband and wife has fallen out of love they should end it or has given this advice to Adi or Aaliyah. In fact when Adi sent divorce papers, she still maintained that until Adi doesn't come and apologize Aaliyah they wouldn't accept him.

So indirectly asking her DIL to forgive her son for all the abuse which he did on her - emotional, physical and mental.

She is stating that she holds Rossini responsible but after leap not even once has she voiced it , in fact when Roshini herself blamed herself she gave her a clean chit and said she was just a victim.

Thirdly her statement that if a lady is barren her life doesn't end but here also once again she makes her FL contradict as they have shown how one after the other has broken ties with Aaliyah after Adi's death simply because she failed to give them Adi's blood in her short marriage period.

So she has contradicted her own statements as she doesn't know what CV's are showing the show actually.

Funniest article I've come across in recent times.

It's like she is blindly quoting Shonda Rhimes here without even knowing what is the difference between Grey's Anatomy & a piece of shit called Yeh Hai Mohabbatein.

Yes, years ago & till now every now & then I have seen characters screwing up big time in GA. Because that's how life goes on. No one is perfect & everybody has his/her share of bad deeds/decisions.

No viewer is upset because Ishita is called a BANJ. It's a fact - she is biologically incapable of conceiving a child. People are angry because she lets everyone get away with calling her names & pretend to be the victim.

There is a very popular dialogue of GA when the ML questioned on the FL's character, she bravely replied that he wasn't the saint there & she was not gonna listen to his bullshit.

If anybody is interested - search writing GA - you don't get to call me a wh**e - & you'll see the power in the FL's dialogue & in her body language.

Plus, even if I assume Ishita is only a human & is entitled to do some mistakes like choosing Roshni over Aliya - you my dear Ekta, don't have the guts to develop other characters who can question her & let her know what the hell she has done.

And don't make me laugh saying Ruhi & Ishita's bond is the purest. It has become the most superficial bond I have ever seen.

You want to see mother loving her kid without giving birth - watch Naamkaran or Krishnadasi or Bhootu. Where a woman is least bothered about giving birth. Where the girl doesn't snap at the mother for not supporting her infatuation.

What you are showing is in no way progressive or showcases reality. It's an insult to women in every single way & in 2018 audiences are conscious enough to understand what shit is being portrayed in name of mother's love.

It's an insult to infertile women all over the world. It showcases the cheap mentality where women's contribution is limited to producing a GKC.

If you were courageous enough, you would develop the side characters to question this - not turn them into mere puppet to dignify your so called JAGATMATA.

PS: I don't intend to hurt any die hard fan's emotion here. Even I used to be a fan of this show. But now it is pure garbage & as a girl myself I will never support a woman who will support adultery when she gets her precious GKC.
