Haha! One time she said, “what is this hanging out, there is no need to hang out”. That cracks me up too.

same; I am also just watching on and off out of habit. I feel like I am watching some kitchidi of some firengi based Indian show and so I can't connect at all. some of the arcs treatment are just strange -- like they picked out scenes from some random english movie and plonked them here.
I have cribbed about the dress which is not typical office wear here. now, we have weird fella in delivery room and fatherhood lessons journey that don't sound true to me in Indian context.
look at the preview.
why do we have a babysitting track? does keith have no family at all? does amrita have no family at all? in the south, a newborn and mother do not step out of the house for 40 days unless needed; they even discourage visitors other than the super close relatives and friends. this is to avoid infection and give time for the newborn and mother to settle in.
so no random person will be babysitting because both mother and child are at home. even if there was an emergency or some need to step out, why would you call inexperienced person to babysit? what about your relative such as mom or mom-in-law or aunt or cosister or anyone else helping out? even if that option is not available for you because you live far away or estranged from your family, you can always hire a nanny or ayah. you are not going to call random friends who may not even know how to hold a baby.
ofcourse when you are abroad or living far from home, you may not have much help. but then most travel home for the delivery and stay couple of months. why is amrita not at her mom's house?
also, the way these guys freaking out makes me eye roll. 🙄
I was babysitting my mom's friend baby when I was 11/12 so she can step out for a few hours to do groceries or whatever. when I told my mom that I am too young, she eye rolled and told me that she was taking care of her baby sis when she was 8/9 and I am old by comparison. 🤣🤣🤣
so what instructions did I get from my mom?
-- just sit there with a book.
-- if baby wakes, engage/play. no need to pick up baby necessarily but can just play in bed itself.
-- if baby cries, give bottle. still crying, pick up baby and walk for a bit till baby settles and put back on bed.
-- if really needed, change diaper/nappy.
happy to say I never called my mom in panic. 😂 for the most part, it wasn't bad even if baby cried. eventually they settled in and liked me and just gave me a toothless grin.
and my mom is such a good friend that she happily volunteered me to her friends even though I kept saying 'no' -- my mom was like "you are just reading a book. you can read there also" 😂😂 but I was a great babysitter. sometimes, in addition to baby, there was another toddler or two.
so: babysitting is not rocket science that you need to call lecturer madam FL for guidance. all babies do is eat, sleep and poop. even a young teenager can do it!
@bold, Viaan is trying to be the ayah. Step 1 in experiencing fatherhood. It needs expert guidance as for some it is more challenging than rocket science.
Many many 🤗 to those for whom it comes naturally. Very, very blessed and thank goodness for that!
Lol so what instructions can we give Viaan? Please feel free to add…
1. Love the poop, it’s jadhoo.
Take diaper changing challenge like my pathidev, it only helps viaan appreciate the wee gap one gets while changing a diaper(pun intended)🤣
Health of baby is proportional to no.of wet diapers changed hence slways keep an eye on them.😉

2. be thankful for diaper company. watch the advert on youtube for instructions -- no need to call FL. she will also change the same as shown in video. 🤣
only in ITV drama will a crorepati do ayah work instead of just calling the servants in his house to come over and just help. apparently viaan has never heard of the word designate. 😆
Ab ye kaha se aagayi 🤣 looks like duniya bhar phukkad mein gyaan bhara pada hai, mein hi ek agnyaani hu.🤣
Mango, as much as Seema aunty irritates me with her blanket statements and profiling, she does speak some utter truths👍🏼 This is one of them👏
Mango ji diaper changing hi ek dhang ka kaam husband kar sakta hai woh bhi Auron ko delegate Karen tho aayah na milne jagah pe you know who does that right🤣🤣
Waise bhi viaan is 8 years behind his course, i think he needs to take up extra courseload or instead it's better he opens up a free 0-8 ka day care centre 😉 😄 😀 🤣

If I say new show my DH is going to kill me, already he's bonkers🤪 with my PTV ITV serial marathon.🤣

Good morning girls!!!! I am having tech trouble with a new computer😔Now what is that statement? Hint, hint…… does it mean anything😉
Shalzie, my friend, why do you want to watch the last 2 weeks worth? If you want to join the ranting, just watch yesterday and today. NOT WORTH YOUR TIME otherwise.
Keith in Lonavala for a song recording and mother on the flight?Too much of cinematic troubles. Why is the mom on the flight once her daughter went into labor?
Jeetu Bhai is like a runner in the office, he doesn’t have a space to sit down and work. He is always cross crossing the office, giving whereabout s of Viaan to Katha.
The car chase could have been avoided. Completely relate to the driver bhayya’s irritation with Katha to chase a white car in Mumbai traffic🤢
The doctor playing peekaboo underneath that drape is hilarious🤣, how she suddenly submerged under the drape with no light focusing on the field she has to work on🤣🤣😡. Talk about being realistic. And the doctor leaving a wailing lady in mid-labor to solve the hullabaloo in the corridor to let Viaan in
And Amrita is back to her witty and funny self after labor👍🏼Good job, doctor👍🏼OK, now I am intrigued, will Viaan withdraw from pursuing Katha, because you know……. He can’t create the magic😔 What are the writers hinting at?
Seems like he is going to plunge into “pregnancy blues” by being part of the birthing process of his friend🤡This is what happens in those birthing suites if you go unprepared🤣🤣Who cares about wailing newborns when you have dialogues to go through? 😳
Exactly Mango, Viaan had the fatherhood experience, what about Keith, according to these writers? 🐷 Dhoom tana nana coming in the form of Kavitha? She is going to take Viaan to the cleaners, now?🤢 Katha poori tarah se phas gayi, as Viaan will be in pregnancy blues and her in-laws will be ripping him off for bothering Katha🤣🤣What an idea, Sir ji
I still don’t understand what the writers wanted to convey to us. Do you have to be a biological father to be a “father” to a child? Or is experience good enough? What exactly counts as experience? They thought they are teaching us labor and parenting classes, but they didn’t know pests like me are left with more questions than a bottom line gist🐷
Fire away girls……… Here are the tags…….
Mili, I finally watched this ep! I have to go through these pains if want to continue discussing this show with you guys 🤣
I am late in the rant session. I went on the DT and saw that some of you are back to praising the show. Hence, I came here.
Things which upset me:
- A parent is connected to the child before birth. Agreed. But what about adoptive parents or people who get married to other people who already have children? What kind of nonsensical message are these writers conveying?
- Finally understood your concern with the jaadu comment. What was that? Why can only the biological parents experience magic? Unknown to Viaan, he is already sharing so many special moments with Katha's son. So what is this crap messaging about creating magic? Sorry Mili for the initial funny comment to the post. I can understand your concern now. I know that it's a show but I was uncomfortable with certain things which have been shown.
- Thank God that I had watched bits and pieces of Adnan in his previous show! The acting since baby blues took over is totally over the top, and cannot be traced back to original Viaan Raghuvanshi. Has there been a change in director or writers? I really don't feel like I am watching the same show and characters.
- The less said about Katha stalking Viaan is better for my own peace of mind!
You are right. They went bonkers!
