Arre, I understand much of the frustration, I FEEL it!

I know in 2 weeks this questionable track direction will be over, D & N will be married, have their SR and we will live happily ever after. And, what will make us live happily ever after? A NEW STORYLINE, NEW TRACKS, NEW BLOOD.

But, I have to say one thing I am very disappointed with. But, as Shreya pointed out very correctly yesterday, LTL is a show that has to earn TRPs. That is its business. And I do recognize it has to compete with the other shows in its slot, and in some ways cater to the whims of viewers, who have been trained to expect certain things.

HOWEVER, there is one thing I have still not been able to accept. For some weird reason, according to tellywood, THREE TYPES OF WOMEN EVOLVED. Yes, all homo sapiens. These are the:

STUPID
SCHEMING
SELF-SACRIFICING/SUFFERING


And, unfortunately, LTL has fallen into this trap as well. Look, I fully recognize these 3 types are what viewers are used to in all shows. The more drama, the more TRPs. But, et tu, LTL? **GP loves the Latin language, reminisces of learning it**

Think of this as like the ACADEMY AWARDS....

IN the STUPID category, my God this year we have so many nominations: Babi, Naku, Leela, Roops, Supriya, AS. And the winner? You decide.

Under the SCHEMING category, the nominees, all well deserved, are K-K-Kala, Leela, Roops, and to a certain degree AS. Winner? The hands-down favorite, K-K-Kala herself.

Under the SELF-SACRIFICING/SUFFERING category, you have the great MAHAAN herself, Nakusha. Oops, no other nominations? Arre, we have our winner! Raises Naku's arm into the air, as if she won by a TKO (knock-out), a boxing match against herself. Well done, dear, well done! That would certainly explain her lack of decisiveness and thinking...too many punches to her head.

Come on, LTL, give us ONE additional woman type. Evolution tells us there must be more types that what has been shown! LTL CVs have the skill and depth to weave wonderful characters, so apply it to a woman. Show women to be strong, even normal, without self-hating, self-sacrificing, suffering...they can have bad judgment, do all the things the men do. But give us a break from the Tedious and THOSE ANNOYING 3S's!

I will put AS and babi in SATHIYA gayin category- even if they r not 60 yet- or they are!!!
And yes- I hate the suffering/self sacrificing category the most..... why do they have to show this all the time.... that's what they think ' EK Achi sanskari' woman should be.... grrrrrrr- I don't even want to start on that!!

Okay...I need to say this...

Why are women not shown as balanced human beings??? Why should she be only stupid, or only sacrificing or only scheming...why cant she be an INTELLIGENT human being? I thought Naku was...but off lately she has proven me wrong.....Belief is okay...but then you need to use your brains...and let me tell you the best part! today we will see the flower falling on the side which signifies no (well according to the promo) ..so that is what bappa wants...but then you will still have this woman lamenting about Bappa's decision and spending numerous episodes in crying! So does that mean that she wants bappa to give her the decision what she thinks is right? Then whats the whole point of asking?
And Babi...less said the better...I HATE her crying...and she is crying all the time... Babi if you cant bear it why dont you tell Dutta? probably he will understand it better if he hears it from your mouth...but no she has to tell baji and naku but not dutta...AS ki to baat mat karo...she is so rondhu...and that too its so artificial...!! Leela seems to have decided to take Kala's rajgadi while roops is roops...cute na...bah!!!!

And Dutta...he has nothing to do except stare at his lady love who stares back! All we have are stares and the good scenes are mercilessly edited all the time by our dear channel colors!
I need some one good to come and give them a good solid whack....Jagtap gave a whack to dutta he improved...now i think its Naku's turn...Come on someone...anyone?


Please take all these people away on a trip to anywhere and i will ensure it is all expense paid....please give us some tasha and baji!!!!!!

ok, this is what I'm praying for:

The fourth type of woman: The brave one. The one ready to stand by her love in all times, fight for him, with him if need be. The one who understands her love enough to be his strength when life leaves him defeated.

You know what I'm talking about! We've seen many faces of Nakusha. SHe's been the selfless lover, the long suffering wife, restorer of Dutta's faith. But now I want her to show what she's really made of. And I know that it's there in her somewhere.

CVs, you know how you can make this track even more beautiful. Now that Naku's regaining her bearings, I know she's never gonna leave his side. i want that kind of a woman for Dutta. He's gonna break down when he discovers the truth about his father/lineage. He's gonna question himself. And I know he's gonna hate Naku too, for her truth might come out at the same time. Now, i don't want her to run away crying when he rejects her. I want her to be there for him, fight for him...and thus teach him to love himself once again. The way she did in the car episode before the jungle track. I want her to show him what she's made of, and what her love can do.

But I think Naku is exactly that...its unfair to call her self sacrificing/suffering woman. Lets not forget how she fought him when he wanted her to get off from the car while it was tipping over the edge of a cliff. That part of her was missing lately esp during the proposal. But yesterday that Naku returned when she was ready to take her place beside Dutta as eagerly as he wanted her to.

My dear, that Jhansi ki Rani and that's on ZEE! 😆 😆 😆 Just kidding. I totally agree with you. A brave woman, an independent one, one who has strong sense of self, one who actually cares about herself too! OMG!

And of course, Naku is going to cry, Babi is going to cry, and I AM GOING TO CRY because I will probably be watching this and cursing at myself!

I feel like I'm becoming so negative...I see it in the words I choose. You'll have to forgive me. Lack of sense and absurdity are two things I never did stomach well! 😃

Shreya, the key word is Naku WAS. That's just my opinion. It's perhaps my shortcoming--I said it some time ago, I am disconnected from her, I just don't understand her. She's laughable nowadays. I'm really sorry to say that. But I'm being honest.

Nakusha in the category of stupid and mahan women ??

😔

I disagree!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YEs she is selfless.. and has been mahan only when it comes to her loved ones!( her family and her love) WE have seen her in Sherni mode as well .. she cries LESS and ACTS more! she is DAring!

Nakusha do not deserved to be placed in such categories..

She is a very inconsistent Sherni. She can talk up honesty and faith and evil in front of Anna (in video), but she apparently can't do it when it comes to herself.

Nakusha absolutely belongs in the stupid category...she has earned it. Mahaan, that too is well earned. She certainly is not an intelligent girl, so we can just put that aside. She has some bravery in her, but I think she may have misplaced it somewhere. Hopefully, we will see that again in the new track, when she again has to judge others' actions, and not her own.
