Any ArVi fan feels same? - Page 2

The involvemennt in the show is becoming less and less...

I used to like the show to see what will happen to Archana.. I also like the Archana and Purvi relationship but the way things are going right now , it seems that they will just drag this way till the divorce day comes near ...

There was another thing I could not understand, as I had mentioned in another post. That is Arjun's total lack of focus and his unpreparedness. He is a hard core and very successful businessman, and he knows that for any important business meeting you HAVE to prepare well in advance, and when you make a presentation you MUST to anticipate the likely questions and have the answers ready. This is the SOP for any professional meeting, and I have done this hundreds of times in my career.

How then does it come about that for this, perhaps the most important meeting of his life, he did not seem to have worked out what he wanted to say at all ? Nor was he prepared for tackling the accusations that Purvi would be bound to hurl at him, and it would hardly have been difficult to guess them. Instead, he kept on saying "Meri baat to suno' again and again, till Ms. Purvi rounded on him and told him not to be under the misapprehension that she had come there to listen to him; she had come to deliver her verdict!

Arjun was articulate enough in when he revealed his love to Purvi, and one wonders what happened to him in the interim. He resembles – I repeat myself but you will bear with me – nothing so much as a shorn Samson, bereft of both strength and focus. I hope this meltdown does not percolate into his business dealings, as it did for Purvi after her engagement was broken off. There will be no one to console him and boost his morale as he did then for Purvi.

Lovely Post Shyamala

To be honest, I am not depressed anymore. Just feel like something I so liked (ARVI) has been taken away from me. But it is ok. It is just a fictional series after all. I am also not as keenly looking forward to any of the episodes that they might air next.

I really like your take on what Arjun needs to be doing right now. I wish he would chalk out a "Plan of Action" and not go unprepared to any of these personal meetings he needs to have with Ovi and Manav in due course. He needs to bell the cat before airing his views to someone who is not willing to listen to him right now. I had once mentioned in the Romeo and Juliet post, that he is aware of how Purvi behaves when she feels wronged; in spite of it he did not stop that engagement from happening. So, I was not surprised to see Purvi react the way she did. It was similar in content to what she had meted out to him the day after he had realized he loved her, right at her doorstep.

Arjun truly understands how she is, so he continues to forgive her, and also telling her he understands that it is now over between them, which in a way, is his way of easing the pressure off of her, as he knows the familial pressure she might be experiencing as a result of his engagement to her sister. This is his love for her. Once a man of action, Arjun, has actually been demoted, to being only a man of words ("I am going to tell Ovi" reiterates this to me everytime I hear it), and it began right from the day of the engagement. This is something which really takes away from his character. Once a man-of-action, always a man-of-action -- The CVs keep forgetting this. Yet, Arjun is an adorable person and truly wishes to right this wrong, and I have a feeling he will.

I adore Arjun and Purvi and have forgiven them for all their bosh and foibles so far. There was a point where I simply disliked Arjun's behaviour, when he put that ring on Ovi, but the very next day, I had forgiven him and was finding excuses for why he might have done -- for what he did. The same goes for Purvi, I have forgiven her too, for her insipid remarks about Arjun's character, which we as viewers know are not true. My perspective is one of forgiveness right now, for both of them. But the CVs make me cringe (also because I know ARman track from earlier and ARman track from now, and the vast difference in treatment given to them both -- one was simply true love, and the other is total mayhem) --like someone mentioned in one of their posts ' they have a different set of writers for building love stories and another one for destroying them, for the sake of twists, dramas and TRPs. How can the same writers who might have penned ARVI's sublime love story so far have so mercilessly destroyed it? This set of separate group of writers' theory might just be true. I sense different hearts beating on the current track!

I also love your 4:1 analogy! ' Wish the CVs read this (4:1 analogy), and do something to extricate Archana and her loved ones out of this mess they have been put in. They need to gently and lovingly end both the tracks 'ARman and ARVI -- in the coming months, and give it the befitting sweet ending it so deserves.
