Ru, I know what you're trying to say.
Sometimes I watch a neighbouring show on SP and trust me you will cringe at what is shown.
I think the ITV formula is to thrive on insults, drama and mockery of social issues. In fact, our show is less on these aspects but I'm on board with everything you've said in your post. All of these were problematic but our show also simultaneously highlights some good aspects too - Amruta ka abortion and the consequences she faced and her growth, inter religion relationships etc, there are more but none come to mind here.
I know they do think sensitively about such subjects and that's why I hate it when they casually put something out there that can hurt sentiments. Specially when it doesn't add to the plot and there are numerous other ways this can be handled.
Makers need to be sensitive to such issues and not just run the trp race.
Will they stop spoiling Raghvi to accommodate crass storylines.
A million dollar question, am I holding them too much on a pedestal coz they are miserably failing.
