Imlie Is a Certified Gadhi

Disclaimer: This isn't character bashing, this is me pointing out inconsistencies and track tendencies that's worrying me. Also Atif Sir - you know this is coming from a lot of love and admiration of your technical prowess.

This is in lieu of the episode where Imlie decides to dress up as a Naukrani, embarrass Aryan, make an idiot out of herself and Aparna confronting Imlie for her stupidity.

I really need to have a conversation with Imlie. Aparna, for once, asked really valid questions. And I am PISSED that they really are breaking Imlie’s character down into something I can’t recognize or root for.

And to give a very critical point, my anger with Imlie isn’t coming from her being headstrong or disrespecting Aryan. Nope, it’s just that her character has lost motivation.

Any character can be justifiable if their motivations are strong - it’s what made Malini a really capable villain for the longest time.

Yes, I did NOT appreciate her negativity came to give Aditya a positive role, and I hated that she raped Aditya - barring those two things aside - I could understand why Malini would hate Imlie and what drove her to ruin Imlie as much as she could.

But suddenly it feels like the writers have written Aryan as the protagonist and completely forgotten how to write Imlie as a character.

She just has one goal - demean Aryan and make his life a living hell and really ruin her own respect in everything. Like literally Aparna - out of all people - had to remind Imlie that it was Aditya who lied that she’s a servant to his family because he didn’t have a spine? Yeh sabka white washing aur Imlie ko idiotifying kyun kar rahe hai?

Like I’m getting frustrated that every scene, every moment that could’ve contributed to Imlie’s growth and a reconnection between Imlie and Aryan is literally becoming a moment of Imlie being stupid and Aryan being amazing.

I… I really don’t have words.



TL, DR: I love Aryan and he is amazing - he doesn't need more tracks to be glorified. The T's are always better off as grey shaded characters, please stop the fair and lovely white washing. Also, Imlie is the protagonist so I do think tracks should be dedicated to her character growth.

The End

You Said it behna!

Meanwhile let's give shoulder to eachother to cry on 🤷

The writer of the show is clearly a fangirl of Aryan! It has happened in a prev Gul show where the writer did confess that she was inclined towards the hero. But at least there, the title of the show was based on lovers and not a character. Aryan didn't have to say that to her before the party..and she didn't have to do that in front of strangers. I would have preferred of she had come down in that Blue gown..heard others speaking behind her back..and then changed into her normal clothes minus the broom,bucket..Wouldn't have minded if she then gave a long speech. She could have also reminded others that she was a maid at one point of time to which Aparna who would be embarrassed can say her dialogues..

Like @Wanderbug said..we know who is the hero..waise bhi with all his harkatein, we are still going gaga over him. Every now and then, you don't have to place arrows so that audience focuses on him..like what SK did. You don't have to put down a character just to prop up another (be it Imlie/ Adi) X can be better than Y not just cuz Y is bad, X can be just better in his thoughts & actions.

Seems like Atif only knows this way 🤷

Spend 300 episodes justifying the flawed first ML.

And now they've a better ML, no need to slap the audience in the face everytime how good he is. We know dude, we can see he's better even with slips here and there.

Now just Shtaaappp!
