Ahh, I get you. Many people quit after Ravish angle was brought in. Post ViTharv's separation, hardly anything was tolerable, but somehow ShiVik kept churning out brilliant performances; and when an actor rises above the script, they have a fan in mešŸ˜† The script got unbelievably shitty, but ViTharv still manged to make me feel the butterflies, so I was very much invested. Plus, the fandom was too amazing to miss out onšŸ˜›

Pre separation was really a treat with sublime writing & ViTharv's "off the charts" sort of chemistry. And I have a track record of falling in love with the trope of soulmates, from SaMud to ViTharv. The depth of their bond and how they embodied the oft-abused/cliched soulmate trope like no other couple sealed the deal for me. I couldn't ever give up on the show because I wanted to see if writers do justice to ViTharv, whether they go beyond what Radha-Krishn could be - soulmates AND life partners.

The end was definitely worth the ride for me, because the writing team never let compromised on their USP- Vitharv, even if the side characters were thrown in the gutteršŸ˜†

Absolutely, the contrast between the mother-son bond is so wild, just shows how change in attitude towards life can transform everything around you.


Be it this show or JNDSD, these makers seem to have a penchant for third angles, otherwise who dedicates a whole song for a third wheel?? Unbelievable…

You know this is what I don’t get about ITV shows, they build a beautiful relationship between the leads and show a character graph/growth which the audience end up connecting with. Then one fine day they forcefully introduce a new unwanted/unrelated character to the lead characters and story and toss all the progress out the window. Ravish character was insufferable with him moping around all the time. At the cost of making him the penultimate symbol of sacrifice, they butchered vividha’s character, made her character questionable. Then to rectify that mistake they brought that stupid atharv being jealous and questioning her character track. Just watching random episodes were unbearable for me. A cliched, yet beautiful love story butchered beyond belief. Though I agree that the leads had an amazing chemistry and the portrayal of the characters was exactly like a real couple in love, both emotionally and physically.


For me personally if there’s no meaningful story, then no matter how good the actors are the show becomes redundant. I actually watched this show a few years after it was over. Honestly kuch rang is the only show I have watched while still on air. Otherwise I never watch an on-air ITV show, saves me a lot of time and positive energy. In my opinion and experience, only the first 100 episodes of ITV shows are worth even giving a shot at watching, even then I read the plot story before and decide if it’s worth my time or not. After that it’s all trp game.

Also just so you don’t misunderstand me, when I said I like all 3 characters, I meant A, V and SšŸ˜€

Every show brings a third angle at some stage, this is the template of ITV I'm totally used to by now xD

I know, it's absolutely astonishing to see how makers destroy their own creation at some point of time. God knows what purpose that serves except catering to TRP gods (even that's not a guarantee). I know only one show which remained 100% true to the original plot, rest all I've watched completey either because I was attached with the character or the actoršŸ˜†

The thing about KRPKAB S1 is that they never completely went of track & core Devakshi traits were well maintained. S1 has an unmatched repeat value, for me atleast. It didn't depend upon the actors because the script remained intact for the whole journey. But most other shows depend on the actors' ability to keep the loyal audience engaged. They start off well but soon know that the online audience is hooked due to the actor & TRP audience is served with dramašŸ˜† I've been a victim of loving actors myself🤪

About JNDSD, I won't say that ViTharv's story as soulmates were ever butchered at any point. Vividha, yes, but makers definitely loved Atharv & ViTharv enough to not touch their lovable traits (thankfully lol). Oh, excluding the charcter questioning by Atharv, which I've conveniently wiped out off my head lol

Ravish & anything related to him was a torture, coupled with shashank's fans Let's not go there, otherwise I'll keep ranting my whole life🤣

I agree, binging a show definitely better...but I have a thing for watching shows during runtime because I've interacted with amazing people, & it used a be a daily routine of rambling about the show with themšŸ˜†

@bold- initially I did feel you were talking about Ravish lmao, but I realised you watched only 133 eps :)
