I guess even the non-internet viewers watched the show for its light-hearted rom-com view. And kinda lost interest when it started showing signs of going the typical Indian show way. Can't blame them for even I lost interest for a brief period of time and the show is still on probation with me, so I can't really point finger at them.
Basically, I watch this show for it's simple fun factor. The love story is cute and very real life. The leads have a great chemistry, the other characters are not OTT vampish or evil. There are many ways the writers can bring forth some angst in ArMi's life without introducing 2 marriages/engagements. This does not happen in real life..unless you are a con or a bigamist. Even Vishal-Saraswati's track can be used to create some problems in ArMi's relationship. Vishal has started feeling inferior to Arjun..so he can start working for Sr Agnihotri just for money so that Saraswati won't feel like her life is lacking anything. There are many ways to go with this and I feel the Purva track is just not necessary. It actually is a put off. đŸ¤¢
Maybe other viewers feel the same way? I dunno about them but I do know that its not too late for the writers to chuck the stupid foreshadow wala track and remain true to its theme. The rest is ofcourse in their hands.
