Great article, Gur, thanks for posting!
I think KB in general is trying to stand apart from other tv soaps: first by shooting on location in Delhi while almost all others shoot in Mumbai studios and locales, second by depicting a couple where the woman is 8 years older than the man. I admit the concept of the leading gal being older than the leading guy is what grabbed me to stay interested in this show. I wanted to see how things would turn out for Simbhi and what challenges they'd have to face, and also how the story would be handled in a society where this type of age disparity is not the norm.
My personal belief is that if there is love and trust between the couple than age should not be an issue at all.

I guess so; now that's really embarassing. What do they watch then? Chotti Bahu?
