Our readers claim a time
leap will kill the show. We
agree
Our readers are a varied lot when it
comes to choosing their favourite
movies and favourite stars. But when
it comes to their favourite television
show Bade Acche Lagte Hain , they
are unanimous in what they want to
see in it. Or rather, what they don't
want to see in it. And that's a leap.
There had been unconfirmed
reports that Bade Acche Lagte Hain
was poised for a five year leap with
Ram (Ram Kapoor) and a possibly
pregnant Priya Kapoor (Sakshi
Tanwar) parting ways. The story has
reached a point where a leap is
plausible. Natasha will return home
and tell everyone she has been at a
meditation centre for the past three
days. This puts a strain on Ram and
Priya's tenuous relationship, and after
a huge fight, Priya will walk out of
Ram's house. All Ekta Kapoor shows
have had leaps so why should Bade
Acche… be any different? But that's
what our readers want it to be. We've
been inundated with comments and
e-mails about how a leap is not the
right path for the show to take. They
have waited for a year to see Ram and
Priya fall in love. The last thing Bade
Acche… fans now want is for the
couple to separate and be forced to
wait for another year to see them
together again. Our reader Samyukta
hopes the creative team will listen to
her "kind request" and not take the
leap, "as we have attached ourselves
to the serial's lead pair Ram and Priya
in such a way that we cannot see
them separated." Another reader
Purnima states that half their lives are
already over (Ram is supposed to be
in his early forties and Priya in her
early thirties) and a separation will
only mar the happiness of the few
years they have left. Isn't that inventive
reasoning? Ekta will also do well to
keep in mind that there is at least one
viewer out there who thinks
separation is against Indian culture!
Our take? Ekta had said during the
launch of Bade Acche… that it will be
a different, mature love story. Till now,
we haven't seen all that many
differences from her previous shows.
It's the same rich hero, same
scheming mother-in-law, same poor
heroine. The similarities are so
obvious that sometimes we wonder,
how come Priya doesn't see through
Niharika's machinations? Didn't she
learn anything while she spent seven
years warding off evil family members
in Kahaani Ghar Ghar Kii ? A leap will
just reinforce our opinion about the
lack of originality in Ekta's shows.
There are several other ways for the
soap queen to increase the show's
ratings. It's high time she came up
with something new and innovative,
don't you think? If she is too busy to
do so, she can just take the help of
our readers, who have made a few
suggestions that wethink are fresh.
Our fingers and toes are crossed!
