The writers are doing a shoddy job but I don't think that's because of Ekta maata.

She didn't say to write a bad story. She had made it very clear that Prerna-anurag love each other, they get married to different people, pre falls in love with bajaj but still AnuPre will always have a soft corner for each other

This was the core plot which probably must have been conveyed to the writers.

But the writers are interested in retaining both the fandom and that's why they are doing this ping-pong.

The only person I am feeling bad for here is Parth the actor and Anurag the character. Parth is so talented and writers are trying to reduce him to a second lead.

Sneha all accepted but where is eternal love story here when Pre of AnuPre forgets all her love and her unborn child in a matter of few weeks serial time.... That's the biggest question

Establish the new couple but at least give them time not force it on us please.... if they want to show Bajaj as mahan do it but it's not necessary to bring AnuPre down for that. .... isn't it?

I just reacted to some member saying all this crap is happening coz EK is pushing S1 storyline down our throats and that AP in S1 didnt have a strong bond.

But I guess, I should also react less...mere kaunse chacha ne likha hai S1 for me to take personal offence 😆

I wish aapke Chacha ne likha hota hum kuchh suggestion hi de dete but yahan to...🤣

In my opinion, it is the first possibility more than others. I do not think it is the constraint of contract period. Sorry to bring in the reference of the previous season, but it is just for clarity of timeline. As they are rebooting the Show that ran for 5+ years, this season can be calibrated to run for at least three years (no multiple marriages as per actors and also a five-days-a-week run time instead of four days the previous season). The principal actors' contract would have been drawn accordingly.

I can see no reason either. So I will attribute the shoddy writing and inconsistent characterization to two factors:

1) Someone has already mentioned it. It is Ekta's s ego. However, she needs to introspect and understand that she cannot please both the set of audiences, especially not at this point when the story has already taken a 180 degrees turn, either for better or worse. Keep aside the male leads, neither fandom is happy with Prerana's loyalty versus soulmate jaap, nor will any female viewer relate with her character.

2) Secondly, they have grossly misinterpreted the TRP audience's demography. They surely are not what they used to be a decade and a half back. As women themselves are more independent and empowered today than then, the TRP aunties are likely to be similar. Which female will feel a connect to this FL's character? Hence, the disconnect.

3) Thirdly, with advancement of technology and advent of new media, television is not the only medium of everyday visual entertainment. There are cloud channels, web- series and subscribable entertainment portals like Netflix. Hence, television is not the only option for 8 p.m viewing. Besides, it is not only Ekta Kapoor and Star Plus ruling the roost anymore. There are other channels and other Shows running simultaneously at the prime time. It won't take viewers a second to change the channel if they are subjected to all the convoluted mess disguised as mahantaa and balidaan.

Point 2 and 3 can also be attributed to lack of research on Ekta and Balaji's part. As human demography has evolved, as technology has evolved, the Shows that air in television need to evolve too. Hence, every production house need to spend a considerable amount on research and development before launching a new Show or remaking the earlier one.

Good comment and most points you mentioned are worth thinking for the writers if ever they decide to do so

Actually these are the only reasons.. s1 was successful because sp didnt have competition and everyone agrees. The actors were better along with the story . Now they can't have so many leaps with great grand children . This concept ekta changed long ago..but why would anyone watch a dukh bhari dastan which they know will end up badly ? None of them will he happy in their life and face only kasauti? The overall mood of the serial is negative specially when audience knows the whole story from s1..those who dont can Google it .


The competition is severe now with web series catching everybodys attention..daily soap formats will also change to limited episode series. They will have to make the storyline crisper and better to keep the audience hooked. Drama sells but good and entertaining drama..not depressing drama...


For now i can only say what shivi said..prerna choose one man and stick to him and please for God sake dont look back.

Agree with you but still I wonder that when no-one seems to be happy with the show who are those who give even 1.5 + trp then 😆

They don't want to completely lose any Fandom, so they are dishing this where end of the day both Fandoms will be unhappy but will somehow still keep an interest in the show. And thus they will sandwich prerna in between them.

Everyone in the forum cares even though they may post do we really care? It's just one way to show the frustration and unhappiness.

I also believe no single actor or character or even a pair can make or break a show. Yes we do watcj the show for our favorite actors /characters. But end of the day a track is successful only when the writers have the idea what they want to show and then they can back that up with equally impressive dialogues.

The cast is always ready to give their best shot for the show. I have no doubt about it.

Here there is no track past two months which can keep interest of the audience. Since the time they started staying under one roof, the real mess started with that.

For God sake how many times they will show someone or the other in jail/hospital /critical condition dialogues from doctors and end mein they will have a party and last a puja to follow in the end.

Thankfully I'm not in any Fandom n seriously I'm watching this as a comedy show where there is no consistency of any of the characters.

Well said 👏👏👏

But whatever said no single actor can save the show when writing is so poor. They are out of ideas and don't know which way to go... So they end up round and round 😆

Sorry to say but I predicted this when she announced the reboot that show won't be able to keep the audience interest for one year also.

And I'm sorry that my prediction turned true.

You don't need to be sorry in fact the creatives should feel sorry for themselves 😆

Completely agree. They aren't even sure what to do with Bajaj character as of now.

They want to show him as someone good but at the same time ruthless.

The actor is doing a good job , but the writing is shoddy.

As I said, the writers are interested in retaining both the fandom hence they are moving fro and back. But in the bargain, nobody is happy.

Absolutely right Sneha.... I would have preferred the initial Bajaj who was introduced as a ruthless business shark over what we have now. The problem is the inconsistency which I hate....

I feel many negative roles played by superstars are still remembered.... best eg being SRK in Darr. So why can't they just be consistent and go slow with the character and couple growth.
