Agreed, we've all grown up watching it.. at some places I find it nice too.. but come to think of it we are in 2021, girls these days are much more stronger and capable of taking care of themselves, they don't always need a hero to come and protect them or pick them up.. I know tv hai aise hi characters dikhate and all.. but har time hona zaroori nahi...
I crave for an honest realistic portrayal of a strong, independent woman, who's capable of being on herself and at the same time is emotional and sensitive enough.. I know maybe Raavi is a different character altogether and I love her too.. but pata nahi I personally don't like girls being all that clumsy and always looking for support.. maybe it's not a part of my own characterization that's why I find it a little weird..
pata nahi.. I think I'm thinking too much into it.. I do like it sometimes. But I still feel its not necessary for people to keep falling on each other to make them fall in love🤣
@shadow_kira not able to tag you.
I think ITV, and mainstream bollywood too, prides itself on its unrealistic and dramatic portrayal. Though realistic content is becoming more widespread, imo, it's still restricted to web platforms. So the cynical me only watches till its palatable, then it's on to the next show 😆
On a side note, I remember that some show fd on twitter had used this term LLHH- look look hawa hawa - to describe the falling trope. Their argument was that thank god our show is different because it's a unique "concept" driven and they have strong, mature leads. I really laughed at that because in all the shows that I've watched in the past year, EVERYTHING deteriorates after 150-200 episodes 😆
This is not to say that they don't start off nice and I have actually watched a few on repeat, yrhpk and s9mk specially. But ITV ki fitrat hai to make it the same eventually. So watch till its enjoyable. Then move on
