Thank you - I loved your structured view.Originally posted by: dsdsb.addict
Great post! 👏I like your idea of the two parallel leads because that way it would have shown that women respond to such experiences differently. It would have also satisfied both the camps you mentioned above & brought diverse viewership to the show. 👍🏼If they had to stick with one DV story, for me a middle ground would have been ideal. Yes I would have personally liked to see Jhanvi on her own feet first, before she finds love. However the CVs tried to combine stronger Jhanvi with trusting-a-man Jhanvi. I would have done stronger Jhanvi followed by trusting-a-man Jhanvi. As this is a work of fiction, I don't think there's anything wrong with a good dose of escapism even when dealing with such controversial subject matter. The knight in shining armor thing would have been fine, provided they showed Sia's character development ...but this has been compromised time & again which leaves people feeling nothing for the character. Its a shame because, had they given Sriti the opportunity she would have done justice to the character. I have no qualms in seeing a weak/scared Jhanvi, turn into an in-love & trusting a man Sia, to an independent, traditional wife - however I would expected there to be focus on how she got to those stages.Some have an issue with Sia suddenly being so comfortable with Raghav. Yes I think they could have executed this better, (like maybe not jumping a year where their relationship would be developing); but I also feel that since Raghav's character is also unreal, its not a problem for me if she trusts him/loves him all of a sudden. I mean who in reality is that mahaan & would give-up/risk all that Raghav has for a woman?? So its perfectly plausible that the damsel in distress falls for the knight. The knight is unrealistic therefore the damsels feelings for the knight can also be unrealistic.People watch this show for different reasons: some for their favorite male leads, others for some kind of social message. I watched the show because I was interested in Jhanvi's kahaani - which we all know was the last thing this show really ever focused on. Anyway whats done is done...
