Guys do you think there's a way in which our voices can be heard by the producers?

Two or three marriages in different shows were forced. Like guy literally threatens them, kidnaps them and afterwards they become a happy couple. Wtf even. This is aukaat of ITV. Ugh.

I'm just done man. Please duck this shit and write a few good stories. I wanna say goodbye with good taste.

No no Bluekohl you didn't mention the entire slogan "Rishta wahi, soch nayi"

Translation: Shaadiyan hum karaate rahenge bas methods change kardenge. Kidnapping, threatening, drugging the bride all sorts of new sh*t 😆

At this point I'm just staying on this forum for the fanfics. Especially 'Tainted' and Tejrik. I got my eyes on you Niki. 👀👀👀👀

You know how I got into this ducking effed up show. Somehow a clip of fatejo ended up on my insta. And I was hooked. They're adorable. And now I wasted so much of my time😭🤡

Honestly I started this show on rebound. One of the shows I was following for like 2 years ended and I wanted to get over the shitty and disappointing end plus I had not watch any itv or desi show for over 6 months (I had stuck mostly to netflix shows).

It was the most popular show on colors tv so I didn't need to subscribe to watch the show (I wouldn't have been able to anyway for the all the channel apps). I liked it especially the characters of Tejo and Jasmine. I thought both had lots of potential even though I thought the whole Canada obsession of Jasmine was a bit too much.

Still both sisters could grow as characters. I never warmed up to Fateh. I mean the guy thought stalking someone was the "ibbadat" love. 🤪 He was a bad stalker also who learnt about his obsession's sister after years. This was just a tamer and cleaner version of the guy from You. 😆

In the end, Tejo's character transitioning to a wise psychologist who is actually believing that Fateh can move on in like 3 weeks when he was obsessed for years is unbelievable.

Plus the lack of screenspace given to most characters and lack of character arc is also disappointing. Too much of cringey Jasmine obsession and her sniffing clothes, the star crossed lovers sad and tragic end and dreams 🤪 are a turn off.

Some characters are useless and annoying. They do not contribute to anything. The Sandhus are dumb and irritating. There is this lack of charm in the show which I used to find it in Tejo.

I'm also on the verge of giving up completely unless we get a Tejo centric track with her moving on.

I agree with all the points you have jotted down. This show have messed up characters!! :/ plus the words like 'ibadat' , 'ghulam' irritates me!! like why the hell will anyone with self respect want be a ghulam of his love interest ?? 😕

Now, I'm one of the few on the forum who isn't in love with Tejo.😆Don't attack me please, I don't hate her, neither am I a JasFa fan.

I joined the show mainly because of the forum and am staying for the same reason. I really liked the Fatejo scenes people described and that one scene where they said that after the marriage kaand Jasmine called out to Tejo.

Coming to the characters I believe Tejo is no different from a regular ITV FL. Yes, she was strict with Fateh and had a strong personality but most ITV FLs nowadays are smart outside the house and then become blind cows at home. I understand we are nicer to people at home, but these FLs let their abusive families walk over them. I also get that nice people aren't any less interesting than awful ones but ITV has too many of these nice women.(Note:Women only, men come in shades and usually have issues)Then her Punjab dream was interesting but I didn't have much faith on it because the real test about showing a FL following her dreams is post marriage or 100 episodes.(70% will only solve family issues after that, at least Tejo goes to college here) This was also why I knew Fatejo would be endgame.She does have more common sense the regular FL though. I really liked Fatejo and the friendship they shared before the marriage and was waiting for their love story. She does have more common sense the regular FL though. .But then they made Tejo fall in love and lose the sensible trait that I really liked about her.

The character that could have been interesting was Jasmine, in my opinion. But that was on another thread.

For me Fatejo and Tejo-Jasmine bond was the USP of the show, I'd be more biased towards Tejo-Jasmine because ITV has enough love stories and sibling bonds aren't given as much focus. But now nothing remains, neither these relationships nor individual characters. The only characters which are smart and make sense are Mami and Mahi and we don't see them enough. Abhiraaj, Senior Virks, Khushveer are also decent but I guess they get even less screen space.
