I love love love Mauli and only watch this show for her. I recently realized how much the writers also like her and purposely make her a character you want to root for. They could easily turn this into a Mauli bad, KuNan good at anytime. But they keep on making Mauli positive. They keep her loving and kind. They keep her dignified.
I haven't seen today's episode but as I was watching the behind the scenes videos of Kunal yelling at Mauli I was wondering why would they purposely make Kunal so mean and disgusting. This is not even a matter of pov where some might say Kunal is right for yelling at her and some might say he is not. Kunal is objectively wrong here because he is yelling at her for making Nandini leave which Mauli has not done. Kunal is blaming her when she is innocent and viewers know that with a certainty. I think except for few blind fanatics almost everyone will root for Mauli over Kunal in this situation and it is not because Mauli was just born great. The writers are purposely writing her as a great character, as a likable character at the expense of Kunal and sometimes Nandini.

Good post. I started by being a Mauli fan but now I am on the verge of quitting the show because of how blatantly biased the writers are towards Mauli.
This show revolved around three characters- Mauli, Nandini and Kunal but K&N have always got the shorter end of the stick in order to glorify Mauli. I read so many posts that makers are trying to white wash Nandini which is the exact opposite of what is actually being shown. Are the writers not capable enough to write K&N well? Definitely not. Look at Mauli and how well she is written. It's just that they are NOT interested to write K&N well. Their sole focus is Mauli and how much more they can glorify her and sadly it's coming at the expense of K&N.And you cannot continue watching the show if the makers are obsessed with one character and continue to write exclusively for her and not give a damn about the rest of the core cast. All of them make the show, and not just one person.I am no fan of Drashti or Shakti but I am really surprised that they continue to stick with this show despite suffering from poor characterization episode after episode.
That is becoz writer is capable of writing one dimensional characters more beautifully.I hv followed her female leads from decade be it Simran from Astitav, Jyoti from jyoti ,Anadi from BV and now Mauli from Silsila i found these characters quiet similar and I don't think she is anymore capable of writing complex and flawed characters Kunal and Nandini.Although there were grey characters in BV i don't hw Gajra wrote them but they were fab .Watching Silsila i think Gajra is only focused one character that is Mauli other two characters hv just become means to carry the story foward.When the show started i thought we get to watch the perspective of all three characters but no here only mauli self talk and thoughts are shown.Monologues 4 nandini and kunal are missing.If she wanted to tell the story of mauli why such big names were casted for other two characters some other actors would hv done the fine job but in reality Drashti and Shaktiwere only there to lure the audience.I think these actors should give up the show as they are surely capable of acting more than show piece in the show.Vaise bhi they are only increase the budget of show.Originally posted by: handlessthakur

Her character is not complex or does not have many shades. Its a total white character. I liked her charater prior to this whole get kunal back mission.
Now i can't anymore relate to her. 2 reasons.1. Her character also did a 360 degree turn2. She is ending up like cliche. Running behind kunal.I still like her the most n she is the only reason y most of the ppl r still bearing this show. I wish they do justice to mauli's character. Right now where itsi headed i am not so sure about it.I totally agree with u on the yelling thing u said. Kunal is the pathetic lead i have seen in ages.
