Idk why I'm watching PS , but somehow expected it to subvert the toxic joint family narrative.
I.mean I knew what I was getting into and yet I kinda hoped it'd be different.
Kind of take the basic idea of the original and put twists in place that brings its appeal to a younger generation.
Right now it just plays into the tropes of middle india /middle age India watches. What a waste of potential.
I used to love the dhara- shiva bond. But really lady. If you're all mere.shiva this , mere shiva that, why the hell don't you first.
1. Get him outta the house, sit down with Chai for a one on one , hey shiva I know you're not an asshole , what's going on in that intense overthinking brain of yours , conversations. But noo
2. I wanted Krish to take raavi out on a platonic fun date, and ask her what was up , and what's got her so confused and lost . But nooooo.
Hell we haven't even had a full scale shivi and devta confrontation on what devta's actions meant for the family. I mean this is just close your eyes and let's pretend we one big happy family.
3. At least show us shiva as being street smart and savy and good with negotiating wholesalers . A knack for knowing what's on the market . Idk
Something where his smarts don't come from a college degree. That's sexy. And fun
Also I KNOWN PS was based on small town grocery store concept in tiny town. But somnath is not tiny. Adapt. Even tiny towns these days have fancy plastic things and dust catchers and fun snacks more than just groceries . And gpay , and home delivery.
With rishita, dev and raavi and (krish too ? Or am I wrong?) being college educated ,you'd think they'd have bright ideas for the store
Expand it online. Offer monthly specials . Set up a small section where home made ,locally sourced goods are sold. Offer a tiny make up counter. Idk stationery section, with arts and craft classes for kids or something. (The classes for kids wouldve been a great lead in to to dhara.not yet mom track ngl).
Does nobody else find it weird as hell that none of these people have identities beyond being pandya? You don't have a bros hanging out with their friends or dhara chilling . And when rishita and raavi do have a life outside their family ,it becomes a source for drama ya khand.
With it being called pandya store ,there's shockingly little on the business/store angle ,unless it's a family relates khaand. Almost like the store is a prop of some type, just to hide that this just a joint family drama .
Also if y'all want to make Anita a obsessive ,crazed villain. Think again. This is PS not beyhadh, I mean STAP WITH THE oil. Please I beg , give Krish something to do. Some track. Some point in existing beyond bro#3.
Suman gets gold in toxic mom in law. She's not quirky or funny. She toxic rn. Wtf is calling dhara baghodi ke beeti , belittling rishita 24/7 ???
I know rishita is NOT easy to love . But if I'm honest I like her a whole lot. She's honest , and volatile and hot headed and so confused. Not sure where she belongs or what to do. The marriage must have been something of a culture shock , and nobody gives her room to adjust. Or even a hug, without lecturing her.ugh. she's ballsey calling the pandyas out on their bs. She reminds me a little of shiva sometimes.
Hot-headed. Volatile.honest. misunderstood with a big heart at the core .
A RiShi? /ShivRis?? Honest conversation would be so amazing. But nooo.
Honestly, I watch it because they mostly act well , it looks pretty but mostly I watch cause I love how smort and interesting the discussion and takes on the DT are . And that's about it.
Krantover.
Thank God my work day is DONE.AND IM FREEEE š
