1. For someone to "drop-off" if you know what I mean. Why? Because this show will always be a double-date show. Raj (the man, I'm being sarcastic) and Tanya (rape victim turned bride) as well as Rajdeep (I like Trish) and Trishna (dumped fiance / wife / a hard worker at convincing herself she truly loves Rajdeep as she has no choice now).
2. For all our various complaints, nothing will change. The show was promising, but got preposterous aka absurd with that stupid Tanya rape story / love story. Give me a freakin' break. Eye roll after eye roll. Who the fuc* marries the sister of their love because she was raped and would never be married ever, never, ever in life, and for the honor of their family? What the hell--move to another university Tanya and start you life, for god's sake vs. marrying your future jijaji. Wow! I don't know about you, but I've never heard of a thing anywhere in reality. Set me straight if you have witnessed this happening.
3. I'm waiting for Mother of the Year Kul to be gorged...don't care who does it. Nupur, Masa/Masiji, her own daughters. Mommy thinks she is God--balancer of everyone's destinies and needs.
4. I want to see the marriages crumble. Poof! I mean Trishna convinced herself she was in love with Rajdeep because he got beat up on account of her. And in one day! Rajdeep is so dreamy, no? Folks, forget the chocolates and holding hands--nothing says love like a split lip and black eye. Critical injuries are a plus+. I think High School Music is probably more mature that this. Sorry Taaj fans but Tanya's jump from rape victim to wife of her jijaji is kind of stupid, no? It's one of these things you and I probably will never see eye to eye on and that's okay, but where the hell is the romance in their story? Being brutalized and then "saved" by a good man/sister's fiance, was a romantic scenario? It even beats the generation gaps, happy hooker bahus, and man gets hit by car-rolls down hill-presumed dead-saved by an indigenous tribe in the outskirts of MUMBAI--discovered--paralyzed--recovers--returns home stories. A woman from the tribe should have married him so that they could "save" him and then fall in love, because both were such selfless people who put everyone ahead of their own needs. Another eye roll, eye roll. Oh, and my final problem--let's not forget, "GIVING" the woman you love to your brother to wed and bed next to your bedroom. Did you put cotton balls or ear plugs in your ears? Ah, I feel warm all over when I think of who loves who.
5. Ok--I know serials are not perfect though they damn well should be near perfect, but I still don't understand the significance of the fire torching Yuvraj/Tanya knot and the two couples getting intertwined while doing the pheras. And the pandit's prediction. I'm sure they forgot. Let this come to fruition, man. The story needs to be told and ended.
Let's see what happens now that the strike has ended.
Wishing you and yours a very Happy Thanksgiving and in light of what is happening in Mumbai, a thought of just how lucky we are where we are tonight.
