The best thing about PKDH villains was that they weren't outrightly EVIL (didn't want to murder anyone, for example)
Rubel was unabashedly aggressive and Sheela Mami was meethi choori. But almost everyone knew that about her and Preeti was always ready to give her a good verbal thrashing 😆
And villains frequently faced consequences of their actions! Like I said, it was a balanced show with a lot less negativity.
And everyone had a healthy share of screen space, be it Nanu or Govardhan Mama or Shanky Kaka 😃
Yep.. thats what made the show so good.. very well written, multi-layered characters.. like you said the villains were note really villains.. they were like those annoying/scheming relatives we all have in our lives, lol.
I so loved the side characters... Govardhan mama and his DM saab ka jaap, adorable Shanky kaka, Nanu, even pankhu's dadaji.. such great casting also ❤️
Aah.. such shows are rare on ITV..
