post where u do not have like minded people and u get a chance to discuss, here I find only divya di very patiently replying and seems like your attitude drove her off to. there would be no use to keep posting your essays when there is no one to read them.

I do not get it. I am just expressing my opinion. Why did this offend u so much?
What upset me was the girls' demand for more romantic scenes from a victim of sexual harassment with her stalker and the idea that he would change for her "love"?
Realistically speaking, this doesn't happen.

bec you talk as if the couple of members responding to you here, want that 'love', huh!
there are many people on the Pratigya forums who support Krishna like mad and want Pratigya to behave like a normal wife! I wonder why the 3-4 of you here, don't post there!!!

Hardy, people here wanted Mahnoor to be romantic with Pasha, her kidnapper. I was talking to them. They said they wanted the similar "love" that was between Krishna and Pratigya.
I said it would have been repugnant. I was talking about Mahnoor and Pasha. Krishna and Pratigya were used as examples. I said that Mahnoor was right not love Pasha or care about changing him -her stalker (unlike Pratigya).
Ok, I apologize if u or DKMystery are upset about sth. I AM SORRY.
I was just saying that I prefer TEL where the heroine stood up for herself and did not care about changing or loving her stalker.
I am sorry again if u are upset about sth. But I stand by my views about the two shows.

men like pasha deserve to die, pak censor board is still living in the 17th century so the show couldn't afford to show the reality.
men like krishna are bad, but they fall in love and are either willing to improve or can be improved.

there is nothing good in TEL where Pasha got what he wanted(the girl and her body) and died, atleast in the show Pratigya, Krishna hasn't been able to violate pratigya and this is exactly where 'Pratigya' scores far above than TEL.
TEL shows tht a guy can kidnap a girl, rape her, enjoy and nothing happens.
Pratigya shows that even if the girl has to marry him, she can still be firm and not allow him to touch her and then fight for her causes and make the man realize his mistakes.

there is nothing wrong in a show being entertaining and not just preachy and boring!

Wrong mate! Pasha NEVER got anything from the girl. He touched her because she was trapped in his house. But her strength lay in not accepting and loving him till the end.
In Pratigya, Krishna DID ATTEMPT TO RAPE HER. But still Pratigya is falling for him.
HUGE DIFFERENCE!

Hi,
i just started watching TEL and am liking it a lot. it is very natural and realistic compared to Pratigya and that's what i m liking about it.
m amazed at how much the Pratigya people have copied!😆😆 did not have to do much work!
there is a lot of debate about romantic scenes and the girl changing the goon. but why would she want to change him and why should there be romantic scenes? the guy did many bad things with her.
its true that TRPs run the way shows r presented in India n maybe Krishna's good side is a result of that.
i guess i agree with some people that improving the guy and accepting him wasn't the issue . Standing up for her rights in front of him was the real issue.
plz do not mind. m just expressing my opinion.

I would also like to add that (as someone mentioned b4), TEL was shot n scripted beforehand (story was based on a novel). but Pratigya has to be modified and changed as per audience taste.
Trying to downplay this mini-venture which gave birth to Pratigya by bringing up things about the male lead not mending his ways is not a good idea, i believe.
the show deals with the problems of women quite well.

Friends,
I am at a friend's place and cannot comment much. But this behaviour in TOTALLY unacceptable.
I started this thread to introduce our Indian friends with the original PAK version of Pratigya. Not to incite debate about which show is better.
Roody & Uzma, both shows are good in their own ways as both are presented differently for different audiences.
Pakistanis are used to realistic shows. But Indian market requires romance. Nothing wrong with that. We cannot hold that against them.
Hardy, please do not say such things about TEL. It seems u have not seen it as u have made wrong statements about it.
I know u are upset with these people's behaviour. But u are presenting wrong things about the show. Pasha did not get everything and just die, He got punished for his sins.
TEL is similar to ur Hindu story of "Ramayan" where Raavan kidnaps Seeta and meets a bad end. Jaise Ravan ke Sarvanash hua, Pasha ka bhi Sarwanash hua. He was no hero. He was a villain.
It is a really thought provoking story.
Div yar, TEL was based on a novel about women's issues. An abducted woman needn't change or accept her kidnapper. So I do not think u should have waited for Mahnoor to improve a man like Pasha.
Krishna is different. He is nice. So u can wait for Prats to improve and accept him. But Mahnoor was forced by him into it and so she did not have to do that.
And it was based on a novel. So things had to be kept that way.
As for censorship, each country has different rules for maintaining good quality programming. The success of a show or film lies in how well it presents itself within those restrictions. And I think TEL did quite well within those restrictions.
BOTH SHOWS ARE EQUALLY GOOD. THE DIFFERENCE LIES IN HOW THEY HAVE BEEN PRESENTED FOR DIFFERENT AUDIENCES.
Bye, guys. Please end this now!

Very nice show!👏👍🏼
Good to see a realistic portrayal of such a situation (i.e. when a girl is forced to marry a goon).
No women in heavy make-up, jewellery or glamorous clothes. No dramatic or exaggerated scenes. No saas-bahu sazish. (It was nice to see the mother-in-law accepting her son's mistakes and standing with her abused daughter-in-law for a change!)
No eye-locks and cheesy romance between the victim and her abuser.
I agree that the girl did not have to change or accept the male lead.
No girl in such a situation could forgive and live happily-ever-after with such a guy (even if he is a changed man + the possibility of such a person changing is too far-fetched).
It is also true that a criminal would not wait for a girl's consent to touch her after he has kidnapped and forcibly married her. That would be a fantasy
A happy ending with the kidnapper changing and the girl accepting him would surely be a fantasy.
I am glad that the guy never got the love from her he so desperately wanted.
Loved it for its plainness, simplicity, originality and, especially, realistic approach! 👏👍🏼
