Please relax everyone :)

Everyone, please chill out. This is an ITV show, and in all these shows there is always a fake marriage. You can argue it makes a mockery of marriage, but this tactic has been used in English and Indian tv/movies for a long time. Also, it's been clear that this is just a trap for Rakshit - not even a marriage so why all the fretting? So what if he put sindoor and mangalsutra? Everything is negated when you have a fake priest who probably brought paprika powder for the vermilion LOL. In addition, this is a supernatural show - of course idiotic things happen - it's supernatural. :D

I have to bring up the double standard - Drishti switched brides (which is a major mockery of marriage too, since Divya and Rakshit DID NOT consent) to save her sister, yet everyone is bashing Rakshit for getting into a bogus marriage to save his father. The only difference is that we all love Drikshit and not Ravan. How is what Drishti did more noble than Rakshit? Drishti has done everything for her sister while disregarding everyone else around her (including Rakshit and the family she married into) - why should we applaud that, but then bash Rakshit? If the presence of Lavanya with Rakshit is the real reason for what's bothering everyone, then that's a totally different issue.

Yes, they messed up on the actor who played the priest (LOL), but I guess he's playing the character of two different priests - a real one during Drikshit & Shivya wedding and now a fake one for the Ravan wedding. We have to take these mistakes with ease LOL.

Of course it's not the best track, but how else will they continue the show? If things like this don't happen, then how can the show continue for the next months/years? There has to be major conflict that brings the couples apart and back together. Also, with Lavanya still as a barrier, there will be tension and yearning between Drikshit which makes for the best scenes. If they get together now without any conflict, what's left? Then we will all say that Drikshit has become boring.

To sum up: Ravan is fake marriage, and Drikshit will continue to thrive. So let's all take a deep breath and wait for this storm to pass.

Yep the fact is no one will mind a goof up leading to Driskhit. And everyone finds logic in things separating them.

Nothing to fret about. Keep calm and watch DD 😆

I understand all the feelings - it shows how passionate everyone is for the show and Drikshit. I love both dearly as well.

From my experience with many ITV shows over the years, the best thing to do is to take a step back and understand that everything will be fine in the end. All these shows are designed to be frustrating, and the sooner we accept that and go with the flow, the better it is for our sanity. :)

We just have to remember to support the cast, writers and the show to watch the show so that it doesn't get cancelled. One storyline that people don't like isn't worth losing the show. Just IMO.

@bold: 👏 I've been chanting exactly the same from the start of their marriage.

Dri's actions can be justified and R's can't?

Minus the forced engagement of RaVan I still find Mahimaji coldness towards Dri justified too.

I've said this soo many times that Dri getting premonition that her sister will be stabbed is valid for her to take such a huge step to stop RaDi marriage - but wasn't what the priest said about R life in danger if he doesn't get married on that day before that time just as valid?

Dri said herself that she's in this marriage for show till they can eliminate P.

She herself has knowingly, deliberately made 0 attempt to take one step towards R despite him carrying the entire relationship. Just carrying out a few customs and rituals doesn't mean she's fulfilled her duties as Shergill bahu and now deserves full acceptance. Of course she'll have to work extra hard as she married through deception. And R knows he is being played by her and lied to by her.

In this current situation is don't want to read stuff on Either his Father Or Drishti - bcz that is not even plausible. He'll choose his father but conduct it in a way that she is safe too.

Jealousy track is my favourite. Sana and Adhvik would be rock the emotional, intense scenes and we're overdue them. We need some holi weekend again😛

I think everyone is just frustrated becoz their week-long speculation about the 10001 ways of stopping ravan marraiage tht has just gone down the drain🤣......it was so simple & stupid tht ppl r not being able to digest it properly😆....over-enthusiastic panditji was not something tht we could easily digest I agree....but it is an itv show afterall...... logic k naam pe jo de de wohi kafi hain 😆..so I think it should let go now....

Exactly my thoughts as well. Of course Drishti wanted to save her sister, but she had no regard for Rakshit's life to marry him, and more importantly, after marrying him when their feelings were developing! Rakshit has been the one to put himself out there for the relationship - he made the first step in showing her how he really feels with their kiss. What is he supposed to think when she pushes him away and says he forced himself on her? Any person would feel rejected and heartbroken after the person they love says that to them, especially when Drishti never told him that Divyachini saw them together, and she pushed him away to protect him. Also, always being seen close with Shikhar doesn't help either, which she never tried to clear up. She'd always just try to save Divya (which is totally justified), but wouldn't even try with Rakshit. From Rakshit's POV - it looked like Drishti gave up on them/didn't want to be together.

Mahima has taken her whole hatred of Drishti quite high, but you're right -- she was cheated by Drishti because she took Divya's spot, hence putting Rakshit's life in danger, and moreover, Drishti NEVER made any attempt to even try to speak with Mahima or pacify. So all Mahima sees is this girl who doesn't reciprocate Rakshit's very obvious feelings, who doesn't mix in the family, who doesn't take responsibilities as the eldest Bahu, and who disappears from family occasions. Any mother would feel the way she would.

Basically all of this could be eliminated if they ALL JUST COMMUNICATED LOL!

True - everyone's expectations, including mine, were not met in today's episode. I certainly admit that LOL.

Let's hope tomorrow's is better, like last weekend - the Sunday's episode was better than Saturday's last week as well.

I try to understand characters instead of judging them.

Yaa dristhi has a bit of double standard in her which i hv mentioned many a times.till now i didnt get y she raised her hand when fake pandit aka bichoo asked if anyone was pieces rasi girl if she didnt wanted to get married to rakshit.thn d bride swap plan was most disgusting thing she did.i know her intension was gud bt d way c did was really not done.how could c get married divya to shikhar widout her concern.marriage is not a joke. Wht it takes to accept a person as husband does c even understand,wht is husband wife relation c knows.she had many option to stop it.still c didnt opt for it.thnk god its jus a serial .even d nyt when thy killed pisachini c asked divya if c ready to come along wid her becoz rakshit didnt want her nd their mission kill pisachini was over,c forgot tht divya was married to shikhar.

Dristi's decisions r one sided decision.she jus imposes her decisions on others and thy hv to adjus to it.drishti has d power of vision others r jus normal humans.how ll thy understand her action.drishti's intention's r not wrong bt d way she handles problms and relations is wrong .thts d reason i say divya handles her relations better.

Regarding lava,mahima and drikshit i fisaco hv already given my views tht its drikshit who is responsible,drishti herself sat on d mandap,thn c should face d outcome of it thn....she wanted time in her married lyf tht i understand becoz its not tht easy to accept someone as husband give him all his rights,bt c could hv put afforts mend her relation wid mahima.dude c is not ur mother c is ur MIL,if MIL and DIL relation would be tht easy thn saas bahu sagas might hv not existed.if rakshit didnt stop mahima from encouraging lava marriage wid him ,c should hv talked to mahima abt it.c had the right.she should hv talked directly to mahima tht c doesnt her husband to get married to any other women,c needs tym,nd it ll better if thy dont interfere in their lyf.instead c kept quite ,crying,blaming herself.she is busy to end pisachini's game even is busy even divya is busy along wid her bt c is not in a mess becoz c keeps both d things separate.drishti jus mix up everything.she needs handle both thing separately instead of mixing it up.Drikshit relation is love - hate story so no comment who is more at fault,drikshit fans ll be hurt.

Mahima,regarding her also i hv already given views.mine and urs r same views regarding her.she has her own reason 4 her behaviour,c is not god tht c ll come to know abt drishti's gud deeds or her gud intension.As single mother i understand her concern for rakshit,bt only thing dislike is she once again forced rakshit to marry lava.how many times ll she get him married.wht if lava also fails to keep rakshit happy and maintain d family values.ll she get him married 3rd thn 4th to be continued until she is satisfied,thts such a silly and immatured decidion.And now her bossy behaviour towards ojas,lava was her DIL how could c get her married to rakshit when ojas was not happy.mahima wont forgive drishti until she come knows d reality of drishti's deeds.

No one is perfect.so r our DD.thy both hv their positive and negative.thy r suffering for their faults in their character,divya went out of d way to get rakshit,destiny gave her a tight slap what now she has MILs who were involved wid her parents murderer and her biggest enemy,a husband who can turn fatal to her at moment.drishti's her married lyf nd dignity is at stake.now c is in love wid rakshit so c trying to save her relation and trying to put efforts to mend her equation wid rakshit.
