I watched because of the clause

I started watching BHPH from the introduction of the 1 lac* contract clause (Aug 10th epi). Prior to this turn of events, I was a sporadic viewer. To me, it seemed that Saachi was one of those stereotypical "victim" of her circumstance type leads - someone always taking advantage of her, she never being able to voice her concerns - she was crying in nearly every episode I happened to tune into, and I wasn't drawn to the serial because of it.

With this 1 lac* clause, she totally took me by surprise, in a good way. I suddenly saw her develop a back bone and stand up to Shravan. It was probably the first time that someone was not under his thumb (Pratap exluded) and I liked that it shocked him and in some sense, he no longer had the upper hand in the relationship. I became a regular viewer after that episode.

The contract snafu also reminded me, that no matter how mean, insensitive, childish or lazy Shravan was, he was never a cheater and never a liar. He, from the beginning, never stood for any of those things. If he said he would do something, he would do it and he expected the same of the people around him. His only problem was, he never promised to DO much of anything. 😆 😉

* 1 lac should be 25 lac (thanks Shalu!!!)

Every one took advantage of sanchi's innocence before marriage and she could do nothing.But sanchi after marrying shravan got lots of confidence,may be its the effect of jaiswal' s unconditional love and trust towards her.

when there was rhona-dhona before marriage, i was bored too and tolerated thinking it would be temporary as i believed shravan's character would not make this show a rhona-dhona fest.
by the way anu, isnt that Rs 25 lac contract clause ?
agree that shravan was never a cheater.

Yes Shalu - you are right! It was 25 lac when no one knew about contract, and Pratap's 1 lac after it was out in the open!! So many clauses to keep track of!

Yes Anu even when I had started watching this show rt from day 1, I was kind of not gr8tly impressed..But as the day progressed I became hooked..
Yes the 25lac, clause in the contract was very well planned and executed by Saachi..It showed her determination and resolve, which were never shown before marriage..In that way she earned my respect more..
It was always like a carrot dangling before or sld I say, like the mill wheel around the neck of Shravan, reminding him constantly of the contract..
Actually Saachi succeeded in turning the tables on Shravan by that clause..
