Hey guys how's it going? Well my question is that does anyone else think that Shobaji is a little too much? I was very disappointed to see that 8ish minutes of today's episode consisted of Shobaji being all "told-you-so" with her daughter. We get that Shoba wants the best for Aarti but I think CVs are showing a bit too much of her. For the past few episodes, I for one have been forwarding all the Shoba-Aarti convos because I know they're going to be the same old stuff. And I haven't been missing anything. I don't mind them talking, but 2 minutes max. I just don't like how much screen time CVs waste on Shoba. I know many of you will disagree with me, but is there anyone out there that feels the same?

But the actress playing Shobaji acts very well especially in crying scenes.

I actually think that Shobha's character is one of the strongest, wisest. She is easily my favourite character..and I dont think her whole conversation with Arti was 'I told you so', she gave her very good advice about the way forward. I think Arti is very lucky to have her as a Mother/ MIL?
She is a strong woman and very level headed

i think you are not following the show .
shobha is one of the strongest and progressive character of the show .
her acting is excellent
her logic are superb be it with her own son or with arati .
yesterday she showed her intelligence to calm down agitated yash from wandering out .
the forum loves her a lot .

^ Oh my gosh guys! give her a break! That's her opinion and sorry to disappoint but not everyone on this forum has similar opinions. YES I think she is getting a bit annoying, I understand her character is one of the most level-headed and a voice of reason but I have problem with the screen time. I also think that she delivers every dialogue in every crying scene the same way. The first 3 or 4 times she did that was fine but seriosuly you need to work on voice modulation, style of delivery, etc etc and shobha hasnt done that so it feels like we have seen her say the same thing before. Maybe she is not saying the same things but it's said in the same way. For example, Aarti cries, gets depressed at different occasions and you see a different kind of sadness (expressions) in KS every single time. I like the character but I kind of am not liking the lines Shobha says and the way she is delivering them currently. Plus I would rather see Gayatri right now because I want to see development from her side too. Punar vivah should focus on the new family, Cant Gayatri give hr son at least one good genuine advice and him actually listen to it. Why cant she go to Aarti and say something? you know characters getting new roles means progression for the show, just saying. more than welcome, to agree to disagree. :)

@mistyblue- Yes, I also think she is a good actress. I'm just saying that we see way too much of her. If that's the case, the Gayatri is also a wonderful actress. But she's not getting the same screentime as Shoba.

@celina- Shoba is a really wise character, I agree. But that doesn't mean that we have to dedicate half of each episode to her. And as for her conversation with Aarti, I'm sorry if I got the told you so part wrong. I honestly fast forwarded it and from the little bit I didn't skip she said "maine kaha ta na beta" or something like that.

@gcluv- I have been following the show since day 1, and I do know that everyone loves Shoba. She is a wonderful actress, but like I said, I feel that we need to see other characters, as well.

@call4angela- First off, thank you. 😊 I agree completely with all of what you said. Shoba is a much-needed, brilliant character, but she's given way too much time onscreen. I think you're right about giving Gayatri some more screentime. I would definately love to see what she has to say to Aarti and/or Yash. It was really let us viewers know what's going on in her head. We already know what Shoba's thinking, yet we are constantly reminded of it through her crying scenes.

Well to be totally honest, I love the character of Shobha but some mannerisms of the actress don't work so well for me, like the incessant lip-quivering when she cries. And I have had a natural distance from her character ever since she encouraged Aarti to lie to Yash about the divorce but for that I actually commend the CVs because I am sure that was intentional. I also found her repetitive in the episodes before the marriage but not since then.

As for yesterday, I think she was very much needed as a voice of reason and a guide for Yash and Aarti. They are really confused and lost and they needed someone to steer them in the right direction. Now that they have got her guidance, they will pick up the pieces on their own. So in short, yes, some mannerisms of Shobha do annoy me, but I believe that her presence and screen time were essential to the story in terms of yesterday's episode.
