I would also love to hear about this from the horse's mouth! I remember a few years back I read an interview with a producer, I think. He had said that ITV has two kinds of stories -- pre-marital love story leading up to marriage and forced/arranged marriage story leading up to confession and (that favourite word of ITV patrons) consummation. For both, you try to put off the culmination points for as long as possible while constantly teasing that they will happen. That helped me understand ITV so much better at the time.
With this show, I am certain that they know exactly what they are doing. They could have chosen to write this show the way we choose to see it -- without moral absolutes -- but it has a very clear voice when it comes to who is "right" and who is "wrong." The TRP junta are looking for stories that sort of hit you over the head with things, where it doesn't really matter what happened 50 episodes ago, and I feel like that is what this aspect of the writing caters to. BUT it is layered over a much more interesting story which is never totally abandoned either. That's what I find fascinating.
@ bold: I also feel the same, that the writing & execution of this show is completely intentional from makers side
my understanding is that
a). they will never redeem & justify any character completely, so that as per the plot & requirement apart from leads they can turn them grey & play with their insecurities to take the leads story forward, whenever they want
b). they will keep the loose ends untied for the same reasons, thus not giving complete culmination & closure to the important tracks, like in baba's case, nannu's case(he might even make a comeback with revenge agenda if cvs run out of other ideas😈)
and I even understand it for this type of show which is not a finite series show & might run for years & thousands of episodes
infact I think the makers must be on clound nine, its like they have hit a jackpot, they are catering to varied audience, trp audience who love the family-drama, others who love the mishbir couple dynamics, their struggles, love, and then others who love kuku's, the modern, in-love young couple story, and then there are others like (all of us on this forum) who invest time to anlayse the dialogues, intentions, actions & thus try to grasp the underneath story & struggles of each character
no wonder the show is number 1 in online ratings & always in top10 or top5 in offline ratings too
