Probably like you were judging people as insensitive using your OWN moral compass 😉

So you admit now that you were indeed judgemental?😃I nowhere claimed to be non judgemental while doing so but you kept repeating you are not at all judging people again and again. Big difference there! You might as well admit you are judgemental and we can be done with this debate😉

Is
infidelity progressive?

The
answer to that question would be NO, but hasn't the concept of infidelity lived
with us for centuries. My ex-neighbour has been with his wife and his partner for
donkey years. In Egypt I bhabi found a couple holidaying, he who's a married
man and a father of 3 and she a single girl, so bhabi comes home and
generalises the whole town as being flip-mongers lol. But that's the reality,
sad and frustrating. I doubt they were influenced by a show to be exact.

However TV's
have shown it for years, haven't the male leads always wavered to some other
female before realising their mistake and coming to their wife. So why can't a
female represent the same case even if she's the main lead?

My
questions above does not in any way mean I ship KuNan, that is probably the
only ship I ain't sailing (lol), I like Nan-Mau even DD-Abhi. Maybe in the future,
but right now I don't see how I would accept them as a couple. Because makers
have already made Mau-Kun a perfect couple for me and YES I AM A DD Fan since
GEET days

I am one
of the countless Angelina and Brad fan (more Ange tbh and now that they are
over, I've tossed Brad like a leaf out my interest zone), but weren't they
accepted as a whole. Just because you watch, like or ship a couple that comes
out of infidelity does make you any less or more of a person? It's a modern era,
things (though unfortunate and morally wrong) does happen? Partners do separate
due to this reason.

At first
I too was hunting for excuses, shows and books I've watched/read always suggest
something must have happened, usually it's the woman neglecting her husband which
I feel is rather shallow and feeble of an excuse and yet they showed it here
with that other guy who ends up cursing Mauli, so hence now I am watching the
show as it is.

If you
haven't watched the show, and made the basis of your views on the promos and
y'day epi alone then I advise you to give it a shot because as of yet they
haven't shown anything to harm the morals or ethics, rather to showcase two
beautiful women (Mauli and Nandini), one very loving and caring (at times for
me too caring) and Nandini (a victim of domestic violence which hasn't been
shown on telly much, well not that I've watched, though that's another thing
that I don't watch too much Indian shows, solely DD unless something else
catches my eyes).

Anyway
neither do I object to KuNan shipping and nor do I belong to that list, at least
not until I know why and how they fall for each other?

I think
the main problem is people are watching the show with the EMA baggage, let it loose
and maybe they would be able to enjoy the show for what it actually is, it is
an incredibly well put-out and has the most amazing cast. I haven't watched Mauli
or Kunal before so they are new findings.

I see
this story more about 2 friends, and the becoming of a strong individual in
terms of Nandini.

Anyway
thank you for the topic, and I hope I have answered your question.

I initially watched the show for the following reasons:

1. What makes people fall out of love.

2. What makes a man or woman walk out of a marriage. Is it extreme reasons like abuse or as simple as growing apart, incompatibility (in an arranged marriage setup).

3. With the right director the subject can be handled in a very sensitive manner. Silsila, Arth, Astitiva, Aakir Kyon etc etc. Movies on EMA can be beautifully told without being crass. I wanted 2 c if this show deals with it in a sensitive & realistic manner.

4. Different from the saas bahu, naagin, chudail crap on Indian TV

5. Initial 2 promos were intriguing.

However sadly aft the 1st 1 week this show has been a terrible disappointment to me. Heroine is the typical Indian TV shivering, shrinking, violet, abla naari, OTT antics by her so called husband & her equally OTT response to it. All the 1970s style so called symbolism.

The CVs made a huge mistake by showing Mauli-Kunal so lovey-dovey & Mauli-Nandini being BFFs. Now anything that they show will only alienate the viewers further. Wat I was hoping for are 2 couples where there r already rifts/undercurrents/issues in their marriage. Then BHAM suddenly a person with whom they can connect, who feels like their ideal soulmates. In such a situation how do they handle it. How does it impact their family & friends. This is wat I was looking for but none of this happened.

So I no longer watch the show. I tune in just once in a while, sometimes come 2 the forum. That's it.

Reg ur quest bt shipping, those are the respective fans of the actors. Dont think any of the neutral viewers like me are shipping Kunal & Nandini. In fact neutral fans want Nandini to b an independent woman & Mauli to shine in her profession.
