Finally, got time to sit down and write about season 4.
I like Abhira, she reminds me a lot about Naira. I like that she says it as it is, even though she goes on and can be irritating a bit. Also, every time Akshara chides Abhira for speaking the truth is a tad bit annoying.
Ruhi is cute and sweet I felt but too naive. I like how adorable she is when it comes to her great-grandparents. But it is quite sad that all she wants in life is to be Ruhi Armaan Poddar. She seems to be very impulsive too. Falling in love, breaking it apart without trying to figure out what went wrong and also jumping into another alliance just like that. Also, the hatred she harbours for Akshara, I hope it is because of the misunderstandings and will be cleared soon enough without being dragged far too long by making her a horrible character.
Armaan, oh god, what is with all these YRRKH male leads? Naitik was a mumma's but thank god he evolved. Karthik was a breath of fresh air, he wasn't bogged down by momma's or grandma's stubbornness and irrationality until later on, when Bhavna and Garima wanted to ruin him. Abhimanyu's beginning itself was problematic, an unhealthy attachment to his mom which ended up ruining his life. Now, there is Armaan who wants love from a horrible dadi. A dadi who never spares a chance to spew derogatory words about his mom and him. Armaan seems to be a nice guy but bring in his dadi, it is extremely sad to see him do things to get her approval.
Rohit again is a cute younger brother. I just hope they won't make a villain out of him.
Now, Goenkas, horrible horrible people. I didn't watch the last few episodes of season 3. But they threw a pregnant Akshara out of the house? How are they any different from Manjari? They are actually worse. And they didn't even bother to find out about her. Leave Akshara, what about Abhir? Don't they want to know about Abhir? Just horrible horrible people. No words!
Let's talk about Poddar family now. Three horrible people in the family are dadi sa, phoopa sa and maa sa in that order. Dadi sa is horrible no matter what. She has really regressive thoughts and to be fair a horrible human being. Now phoopha sa is your regular cunning guy in the family. Now maa sa (Vidya) is the ideal bahu who is always trying to make other people's lives miserable by agreeing to the whims of dadi sa. And the drama, oh, armaan is my son, my first son and all that bullshit. Same as Manjari, Vidya couldn't stand up for Armaan when dadi was insulting his existence. if he felt like a real son to her, she wouldn't have agreed to Rohit's rishta first. She would have insisted on Armaan's wedding. And the whole gopi thing? Rich people and their privilege! I feel bad for chahcu and his wife as well. Just because Vidya is sucking up to dadi sa, chachi is always considered good for nothing. As if her worth lies in being a good wife and bahu (of course for Poddar's it is). Felt bad for Madhav though, the father. The one nice guy who probably lost his love because of his venomous mother and was forced into a loveless marriage. Whose worth is questioned on a daily basis for the profession he chose.
it just feels like Armaan, Madhav, his brother and sister, and his brother's wife are the victims of horrible dadi sa and Vidya.
