Absolutely darling I totally agree with you. The CV's could have chosen a better way out, they are after all the writers and could have invented a million and one story lines but this story line is not to be played or experimented with.

It is a serious issue and not to be taken lightly.

Annie!

i had a feeling that this topic will b brought up on the forum n i was rite:)
many people i have seen so far r not pleased with the manner sucide was treated n it is understandable... Who minutes b4 killing themselves r thinking about how hot the sun is?
However i felt it was done in a perfect way for two main reasons!

Firstly not sure if u have heard of the recent film vicki donor? It takes the taboo n serious issue of sperm donors n turns it into a 2 hour long comedy that has recieved rave reviews n admired 4 the approach adapted. Of course sucide is much more serious issue but ipkknd has dealt with the concept in a modern n balanced way as it wasnt lyk khushi was giggling, her pain n sadness was pretty evident.

Secondly we claim 2 b a modern n educated audience who can write pages n pages on the butchering ov characters of ipkknd but wasnt 2dai sketched in the childish n short minded way we have claimed 2 b khushis character over the past 3 months? We cudnt exactly expect her 2 formulate sum masterplan 2 get the truth out now cud we?

Obviously this is just my opinion n not me being insensitive as i have personally been with people who have attempted sucide.

The show lost it's "Artistic" tag a while back, I've lost faith in the writing and direction style since Holi, I'll be frank. Post-Holi we've been provided with mediocre, sometimes below average episodes with a few moments of rare IPK genius originality coming through whilst the rest I said is so..so.

This whole suicide track is out context on so many levels.
- a) It is essentially out of character for Khushi
-b) The girl was close to ending her life and they did not even try to properly demonstrate the depth of of her emotions ...

.. As I said nothing about it is "artistic" it was done as a filler AND perhaps poor brainstorming ideas that they thought the best way the MU can come out is if Khushi almost killed herself thinking ASR loves someone else therefore pushing ASR to his limit.

Honestly, I think ALL they cared about was the outcome and the consequence hence, they played little attention on introducing this track (poorly set-up by Kamelesh Khabri) and it seems like wrote anything for the sake of laughs and screen space leading to the ultimate terrace moment we got today.

Sadly, they really didn't look at suicide as a sensitive issue and their purpose was not send out social message it was simply a means for them to reveal the MU to Khushi and nothing more hence it's comic treatment. Harsh to some viewers and portraying the CVS as insensitive.

i agree with your post.

Suicide is indeed never a joke.

Khushi is mental!

But i love that about her.

Thanks for sharing your views on it to!

Working with suicide attempters, I saw how hopeless they are when they make the decision to end their lives. I have seen a range where some of them are in denial till the last moment and I have seen individuals where basic necessities are frivilous when contemplating suicide. Such a range of emotions CANNOT BE portrayed in a comedic view. I agree that the last few moments before Khushi decided to end it all, you saw the devastation on her face and the reason reflecting in her eyes, BEGGING Arnav to stop her one last time before she does what she hopelessly doesnt want to do.
