I can’t believe what the writers have done to Shiva’s character. They have made others call him insecure, weak and has a complex. They have reduced him to a caricature to show others around him mahaan and perfect. This is so not done. This is all Raavi and others think about him. Nobody has even tried to understand or talked to him to even find out that there is something more to his story. Where is the Shiva who confidently said in the haveli that he will not change for anyone and people should accept him for who he is.
To fulfill her wish of being a Pandya parivar bahu for life, Raavi tried to go forward with the marriage through adjustments and compromise. She never trusted him after kidnapping track until Mukteshwar happened where he cleared her MU only because both were in NDE. Again the trust was for a brief period when the Sneha kaand, diary kaand, Mannat all happened, he pushed her away assuming she deserved better than him. After what Raavi said today, I am very clear that she has absolutely no feelings for him (not that she had before), the brief trust she had after Mukteshwar is gone forever, she never tried to understand him before or now and finally she doesn’t want to adjust and compromise anymore.
Shiva did decide to end this marriage first and now Raavi is form about it too which is okay if that’s what the writers want.What is making me angry the most is that they are showing that Shiva is starting to have feelings for her again, thinking about changing for her. Why are they doing this to him? How many times do they want to break him? Just because he changes his clothes Raavi is going to accept him? No, that will never happen. She has found bigger problems with him like his insecurity, inferiority complex, finds him weak. How much ever they try to patch them, these things will constantly run through her mind. He will never be the person who she wants him to be. How are the writers going to rectify these characteristics that Shiva has been portrayed to have now? What are the writers doing to show that Shiva is not insecure, doesn’t have a complex and is not weak?
When his own brothers are cheering for Raavi to win the dahi handi, what is the guarantee they will not laugh at him when he decides to change his appearance for Raavi. Je will make a fool out of himself if he ever does that.
But then again in all this saas-bahu drama, BhabiMa’s mood swings, Male characters hardly have any role.
All Gautam does is to pacify Dhara, Shiva is there in only one scene per day, Krish comes 3-4 times a week, is only there for comedy and laugh at others. Dev’s presence or absence doesn’t make a difference anymore. Even if he is present, doesn’t get a single dialogue to speak on majority of the days.What started as an ensemble has become one character story and all the other characters revolve around that one character.
In all this I am now scared what if BhabiMa will again have a bigger role in uniting ShiVi.
I hate what the makers have done to Shiva, Prema. I truly want him to get back his confidence and his sense of self worth on his own, without placing his love above his self respect, or without the girl he loves needing to tell him that he does not need to change.
But according to itv, male characters don't have any self respect anyway, so can't expect much 🤪
He is paying the price for loving people unconditionally and getting nothing but shallow judgements in return from them 💔
