When Abhi commented to Simi that he realized she had responsibilities towards her family, I asked myself what responsibilities? It is good to see that the writers recognize that we should never expect that a girl forget about her own family once she is married, but Simi has never stopped forgetting about her family. Even after she married Abhi, all she does is think about them. What the heck did she marry Abhi for if all she was going to do was worry about them😕?

Her loyalty to her family is unconditional to the point that she is self-destructive. She's lucky she has someone like Abhi who is kind enough to allow her to remain so fixated about them. I'd like to have seen her try to do all of this if she was married to RB or Nakul. I don't think she would have dared.

Prior to marriage, she had no major responsibilities other to get married. YES writers that is all Simi had to do. Did Simi's income go towards the upkeep of the house? Was she taking care of a sick family member? Did Simi run the household? No, no and no. Simi had no major responsibilities otherwise the family would never have wanted her to get married. Even Simi, time and time again, commented that if she did not get married, how would her siblings get married?.

Today the writers are looking for excuses for Simi's behavior; they want this woman to be the heroine and justify her self-sacrificial behaviors even after Abhi has entered her life. It seems it's this is only storyline they have and plan to milk to its fullest.

No-one is telling Simi to forget about her family; all audience members want to see is Simi acknowledging Abhi. Are the writers not able to do both? I can 😛 😳 It does not require much talent . A line here or there.
If they can't write it, we will volunteer. Email us the scripts and we'll fix it for you😛. Free of charge.
Of course some here (not me just to clarify) might ask for a hug and kiss 😳 from Neil Bhatt, but that's OK, right? 😉
😆
English 101. SValCalGal, you are welcome to set the grammar correct on this post. I have met three people in my life with awesome grammar and I have to say you are the third one. The other two were my former bosses. I think we can all learn something here including myself 😉

It totally makes no sense that she is being shown the heroine of the house when she just been shown the elder daughter of the family
'And as u said before the story was Simi needs ti get married before since she has her younger siblings in line
and if it was RB or nakul they way he behaves like hitler she wud'nt have had a thought abt her folks house
And since Abhi is soo down to earth and cooperative she is taking it for granted that what ever she is doing is just right'
I mean see that guy yaar no social life no romance in life'he is suppose to be in his peak of liberation and he is caught into this kinda situation where he just follows his older aged wife

Will h=they give some hppiness to this couple
Will they ever romance
Will they ever sing in love or dance to their happiness!!

Please give some value to their lives and some proper mold to their relationship

You know, it is quite interesting to see how Manju lauded (praised or glorified) over Rajeev Bhala, the resident slime ball, but treats Abhi with such disrespect. She didn't hesitate to marry her daughter to him either. It's rather horrifying that Simi doesn't feel the slightest bit bothered when her husband is repeatedly berated by her mother.

Hehe Laila my grammar is bloody good too.
I am a teacher, a language teacher. Well I guess on this forum that doesn't mean much going by the precedents set but I am stating it nevertheless for whatever it may be worth. The truth however is that my grammar is very strong lol lol.
Now coming back to the post, one really does feel sorry for poor Abhi and how overburdened with responsibilities his life has become. No time for romance. he has a heroine in his hands thanks to the cvs, a lamb who has transformed into a tigress no less hahahaha.
And when he spoke about having brought samosas with chole my mouth was watering furiously but Simi mam was fasting for navratras so no takers for the sams and even abhi had to forgo his breakfast feast to join in the prayers where he was least welcome what with manju anita the chachiji and anuj looking daggers at him!!!!
Hopefully the Cvs will wake up, realize that these guys have just recently got married against all kinds of melodramatic odds and decide to give them a life and a few smiles and why not a few hugs?? What says guys???

Hey coming back to grammar I forgot to say that my Hindi is pathetic just kaam chalao but I have an excuse, I am Tamil, from the South and Hindi is not my mother tongue. But I am INDIAN guys all the same lol lol lol lol.
So one more myth on this forum busted. One does not have to master Hindi in order to stake claims to be Indian and profess to be a proud Indian.
One does not have to condone rape and then stake claims to being Indian and being proud of it.
I would not feel so proud had I been in those shoes!!!
And I wonder why Dipa even had to take up the challenge and answer in chaste Hindi. Had it been me, I would have been unable to. But I continue to be a full fledged Indian who chose moreover to remain rooted in India in saddi dilli whereas she had ample opportunities to settle in France!!!
Sorry am veering off the topic but couldn't resist because some of the crazy things and claims one reads in this forum are enough to raise one's hackles ever so often!!

SValCalGal might have some competition here in the grammar department 😉😛
After Simi and Abhi were kicked out of the house I thought the cvs would try to do something different but as each episode progressed we saw less and less of any chances of a life after marriage for Abhi and Simi. Abhi and Simi have a major kabab mein hadi and that is Simi's fixation with her entire family and not her family per se.
So much could have been done with the storyline at that point but all we have seen is Simi worried about her family. Didn't we have enough of this for the past three months?
Now I am three episodes behind so when I finally catch up after working another 12 hour day tomrorow I will let you know how I truly truly feel - which won't have changed much I am sure.

Wake up 😆😆😆
I feel they will never
Even small opportunities they seem to leave
just like the nite of the sandwich where they had a good way of capturing beautiful moments
Even when she was dressed up so beautifully in the red chudidaar There was a chance to allow him to appreciate her dressing and make her blush a little

There marriage drama was horrible to end these up in a state where they have no time for themselves and Simi always thinking Meray papaji, Meri Ma, mera Bhai Aab Kya kareyga

Just because she is the eldest she is loosing the value of being a married women responsibilities towards her married life

Abhi I have lost hope he will tell her anything being educated and realizing her priorities by giving a smile on Abhi's face or acknowledging him for somthing he has done for her

hehe Padma my hindi is more urdu than hindi and i wud just like to hear someone question my identity on the basis of language and/or religion. I speak, read and write perfect urdu though.

When I dont write seriously, I do make a whole bunch of grammatical errors, mash up several words to make up a new one and my punctuation is virtually non-existent but the one thing that I do have is the ability to not be intimidated by someone with superior language skills. Feel free to correct my mistakes (Dipa already does with her bunker busters :D) but lemme warn you that im that really annoying student u have in every class........... u know the one with a smart mouth and the irritating habit of thinking she knows more than the teacher. (which i do) 😆

Now coming back to the post, one really does feel sorry for poor Abhi and how overburdened with responsibilities his life has become. No time for romance. he has a heroine in his hands thanks to the cvs, a lamb who has transformed into a tigress no less hahahaha.

Coming to the show.......... i recently caught up with the shows for the past few days and kya dikha rahe hain yaar......... sade hue se sade hue serial mein bhi thoda sa romance hota hai is bechare ko to woh bhi nai milta hai sirf responsibilities and that too itni thankless family ke.
And when he spoke about having brought samosas with chole my mouth was watering furiously but Simi mam was fasting for navratras so no takers for the sams and even abhi had to forgo his breakfast feast to join in the prayers where he was least welcome what with manju anita the chachiji and anuj looking daggers at him!!!!

aaargh!! abhi how could you have fallen for someone who can resist samosas and chole........ mujhe choose karte to milti someone who cant resist samosas, chole, bhatura, gol gappa, paav bhaaji, sev puri, bhel poori................... and can fight off the other bhains 😉
Hopefully the Cvs will wake up, realize that these guys have just recently got married against all kinds of melodramatic odds and decide to give them a life and a few smiles and why not a few hugs?? What says guys???

usually itni melodramatic shaadi hoti hai to its the result of a 'grand passion' these two dont even smile at each other......... heres hoping this changes.

hehehehe sweetie just loved reading your post. Well even though my Hindi is just of the sadak chhaap and utilitarian variety, I do take great pride in mentioning that I speak, read and write Tamil, perfect tamil while speaking, pretty good in reading, not bad at all in writing. So high time we got out of the well where one would say I speak Hindi threrefore I am a bona fide Indian!!!!

Ohhhhh I simply adore ADORRREEEE this bunch of students and I do have one right now. Just love it. This is how I used to be too hahahaha.

I tell you!! Thankless IS the right word!!!
I hardly watch the serial anymore snif snif boo hoo, so boring it has become and so difficult to swallow!!
And when he spoke about having brought samosas with chole my mouth was watering furiously but Simi mam was fasting for navratras so no takers for the sams and even abhi had to forgo his breakfast feast to join in the prayers where he was least welcome what with manju anita the chachiji and anuj looking daggers at him!!!!

Helloooooo me too the same, same to same. Can't resist all the above wow wow wow and LOVE eating and LOVE chatpata food and ADORE delhi bombay madras bangalore etc etc etc calcutta etc etc etc street food and food in general!!
Therefore at I wanted to say was, ahem ahem, Abhi mujhe bhi choose kar sakta tha!! itna idiot hai ki hum dono ko chodke simi ko choose kiya who is as cold as an iceberg!!
