Perhaps unintentional, but it's certainly there 😃

Now wondering what Ranbir will do for his mission "Prachi will herself come and tell me it was a lie"!

Also Rhea - got such a bad deja vu of Aliya - Purab - Bulbul triangle. That shouting and desperation was so damn cringe worthy that i just couldn't.

I really like Ranbir's character. Far more sensible than Abhi's at any point in the history of this show. If only they'd give a percent of the kid's sensibility to his uncle.

Anything sensible that comes out of this show is likely accidental or something that came accros on default. They certainly don't put the effort in or lack the brain cells to do it.

Just caught bit of the episode and now i have to rant a bit.

I love Sriti and Shabbir, both individually and together. They are the reason i still watch this show but their characters and this story arc is insane. Like beyond any logic.

There are literally a hundred different ways the writers could have taken this story while maintaining the drama quotient. Why recycle the completely unnecessary wedding drama where they're acting like lovestruck teenagers.

I got attacked somewhere else for saying Abhi's character is toxic but i maintain that. His character is like trump - completely inconsistent. He says one thing one moment and does a uturn the next. He still has the gall to blame her. The writers literally never showed a redemption arc for him where he acknowledges or even understands that Pragya was never at fault for what went wrong between them, if anyone was responsible for them losing their daughter it was him and his family because Pragya wasn't the one who brought the likes of Tanu and Nikhil into their lives. Even King became a part of their lives because Abhi kicked Pragya out and later because his niece married into the man's family. Pragya just takes flak for everything that goes wrong in the forsaken Mehra family.

Her character is almost masochist under the blindfold of love because she keeps going back to the man who uses her as a verbal punching bag and a target for his own misgivings and faults. Everytime i see him accusing her of something, i feel like punching something. And everytime Pragya just takes his crap or acts like a giddy girl in love, it makes me feel furious at her character.

Instead of the wedding track, they could have shown them being mature parent, which is what they are now, trying to put their family back together and save their kids from destroying their lives. In this process they could have also dealt with their own issues, resentments, etc and given the fans whatever romantic quotient they need to give to them. I mean showing them living as a married couple dealing with issues that old married couples do would be far more interesting than seeing a weird rehash of them enacting their past. THAT"s called story progression. There is so much to explore within that arc, romance included because love changes with time as people do. It can grow stronger and remain constant while changing at the same time. What matters is how a couple adapts to it. There was still a certain type of progression and maturity within their romantic relationship during the whole Kiara track but it's stagnant at this point. If he can still misunderstand her, if they can still misunderstand each other's love - the damn premise of this show - then where is the growth? It's nada, zlich.

The theme of the show is 'Kumkum Bhagya' as in one's fate being tied to their marriage. We already know these two are tied by it, no one needs a rehash of the same thing. Wouldn't it be better to see this concept being passed on to their kids. How their fates are entwined with that of their kids because what their kids are living is a by product of the things Abhi and Pragya faced through their fate.

It would definitely give the second generation a bit more scope. I mean they have the potential to learn so much from their parents mistakes and experience. Why not show taht being passed on? It still keeps Abhi and Pragya on screen while doing something sensible with this story.

At this point, i feel like i can't watch this story even for the actors.

you have made a lot of good points but alas the writers are too dumb to even consider it. They just don't want to grow. Its the same old rinse repeat formula with permutations and combinations. Given the show is still in top 5 /10 I don't see them changing anytime soon

likely nothing as far as we know about prachi she will be adamant and he will follow. Going by the insta stories she is going to Hoshiarpur and he will follow who knows may get married there😎

Dunno much about her Hoshiarpur history, but if she's going there alone (or even with Shahana, as it seems), dumb to go a place which is effectively's Sanju's den. A man who was literally willing to burn her alive the last time they met.

But this is Zee, and so it's more likely that she will go there 🤪

@misfit I completely agree with you

Honestly I didn’t watch the show completely ...Just few old episodes here and there... i agree they did have chemistry (sorry I don’t see it anymore.. just my opinion.. maybe because of Pranbir’s existence now) but it is because of their individual characteristics that I couldn’t hold on to the show..

Sarita aunty had a dialogue about how she didn’t see such a love story ever.. I’m thinking did she see how their love story was from the beginning?

They separated a lot of times( honestly don’t know how many.. please don’t judge me) but it’s always been because the character of Abhi mistrusting Pragya.. Trust is more important than love... My question is for the writers.. why are they just showing romance between them.. why not trust, understanding, maturity .. ?? I mean it’s not like they can’t show it.. Pranbir’s love story has it.. Touchwood.. ( hope they don’t change it) ..

Now my only concern is Pranbir.. I don’t want the other couple’s immaturity to affect my favourite couple.. That’s it..👍🏼

That legit bewilders me. HOW? How the heck does this show still get the TRPs? I'm not that familier with how ITV works. Do actors really have such a strong base? Does ITV in comparision have even shitter content making people choose this show? Do people not have access to a lot of channels? Is it the time slot?

Like i said, i love seeing the actors on screen. I'd like to continue seeing them on screen and together too because it's really hard to find TV leads with such great chemistry and ease that comes across in their scenes but i'd like to see them with a better storyline. They actually deserve better too because i think they have a potential for great range.

I hope at some point i get to see them in a webseries. Even the Altbalaji ones tend to have a more compact storyline. I guess that's because they are meant to be for limited number of episodes and they don't have to diverge off the premise for TRPs. Honestly web series are a gift for people who want good content in Hindi.

I think she has some extended family there and we don't know why she is going here. The good think about Pranbir is their tracks are usually unpredictable, people speculate based on promo, caps but reality is always something else

As far as rakhi sawant reject is concerned he is not there, usually that fellow is the first one to post whenever he have any tracks

Any other family of hers that been mentioned in the past in Hoshiarpur- apart from the obvious ones (Sarita, Shahana and Pragya) and Rishi (?)

Papaji's side is in Delhi, and Mumma's side have all migrated to the sister show, I think? 😃
