I ought to say that if the show goes off air i will miss janhvi mittal alone. Shrenu did the best she could and brought life to janhvi mittal. Her signature smirk was/is iconic.
Though I agree they went wrong with the pairing in the beginning , shrenu & zain should have been paired. Revenge drama with a pinch of romance would have worked. Both the couples were dull + poorly written. They improved with the writing of kabir kavya later on though but it was too late.
I still don't think kavya is responsible for the show not working , though bahu vs bahu promo was a turn off for me ,except that I don't see any reason of kavya bhagaoing audience , on the contrary i think the concept of a grey female lead repulsed the audience and the equation between the ongoing couples couldn't help the show sustain.
I was looking forward to the revamp. Especially to the clash between Pooja and Kabir but Pooja as a character disappointed me , so did Kabir. Their bickering and that eye to eye was cringeworthy and it was so evident that the writers do not have the faintest idea of what they are trying to do or what to do next. They were just experimenting , clearly uncertain of the results. So I stopped watching.
Tried some of the recent episodes , they still went nowhere. And now they are going to get pooja and kabir married which is the only thing I dreaded the most. But well experiments ! The final experiment !
Personally I believe the makers should have wrapped up the show when star plus insisted the revamp instead of trying this and that and ruining the lead characters for trp.
Although it is the channels fault primarily , Star Plus should have given the show atleast 100 episodes before intervening with the plot. And now they are considering to shut it down altogether. It seems the PH have no say in the matter unless it's ekta/gul , sad.
