Must say AWESOME post👏Plus some of the replies are valid aand to the point😊

Arjun is a crime thriller and the difference being that apart from solving crimes it also touches the lifes of the officers,which is novel and unique.Also it's a way touching the viewers more emotionally.

I don't know but I feel with Riya it was fine with watching a romantic angle ,I'm not saying this as an Ariya fan as reasons I feel that back then her personality and story was created such that it touched upon Arjun's life and she also influenced other ETF members life.

Now with Ayesha,she's a great officer but then I'm not expecting a forced love story here.To see the loving side of Arjun we obviously have Roshni-Arjun angle.

All said and done all these obviously comes hand in hand with the amazing crime stories writers churn out every week.😊

I appreciate your comment.
Having said that however, I feel like some of the points that you have brought up have nothing to do with what I have said.
I never said anything about not liking Ayesha. I applaud her for taking up a challenging show like Arjun. It's a tough role to step into, however whatever she has show thus far is impressive. Your comments in relation to not accepting her, or not recognizing that she's hard working are invalid. No one has said anything about that in this discussion topic.

Also, I believe that Arjun is different from the other crime based shows, because it deals with different issues at hand. The way the episodes are brought to life is different from a CID or Crime Patrol. You think they don't show romance then the show will become boring. I think that if they focus on the romance- the show will become an average daily soup with crime fighting as the backdrop. I think there's enough daily soaps out there to fill my appetite. Consider this- everyday we eat the same kinds of food (i.e sabzi, roti, chawal etc) but when we get to eat something different, we relish that and wish we didn't have to eat the same boring food everyday. Well Arjun is like that. It is the Chicken Tikka of Indian television.

Also, I think it's absolutely doable to showcase characters and investigation at the same time. The simplest way is to relate a case to a characters past/current situation. Does that not give us an inside into a character and an investigation?

I signed up to watch an intelligent crime show- not some sort of mushy romantic comedy where the love of the two characters overshadows the real purpose of the show. By saying so, I'm not saying Ayesha (or Riya) shouldn't have been part of the show. I think more women should be brought in.

I do agree that more women do need to be brought in.

And yes Arjun is different. That no point it can be a mushy lovestory daily serial. Its on beacuse its different.

It closely reflects to the lives of person in police force.

No one is saying it to be a mushy lovestory. Even even if out of the blue moon someone does say that then Gorky will not change the theme of this show. Will he?

I want Gorky to fulfill his. He said "Arjun will be different from the rest". And so it has to be.

It cannot be a simple investigation show like CID or it cannot be a simple lovestory show (that's impossible).

I want to be a complete show. Where we see Arjun and other police officers not only showing us their investigation skills but also how they are OUTSIDE their 'police officer' role.

And dont worry. The purpose of the show will never will switched. At no cost. Or else it will not be Arjun.

So as long as u r watching Arjun, keep in mind u will see 95% investigation but 5% personal lives and relationships also. Be it Love, Friendship or something else.

lovely post dear👏

and i loved reading each POVs😊

and like many i agree that Arjun doesnt really need any romantic angle, but😆, yes there is a big but, any personal lives of the team shouldnt be overlooked at all...

I'm sure many who watch detective serials not in India, do agree that the case should make about 99% of a show, but even there they sometimes put a romantic angle, but they dont stress too much on that however.

What i mean to say is that, if i wanted to watch a simple crime thriller, there are hundreds of such serials outside, but what made Arjun special was that it also touched about the personal lives of the ETF, and i personally feel it is very important for us to really like and understand a particular character...

And i'm also from Indian origin, though not Indian, not really fans of Saas-bahu serials at all, and Arjun should never be a mushy-romantic serial🤢, even i will stop watching it if it turns out to be like this...

as for your question, the lead doesnt have to be involved with each other, but they can be involved with other people😉

And well in Arjun for the time being, i'm only awaiting Arjun's past and Sikander the most than a possible love story😊

and from the other posts here, i agree that many think that we either want Arisha or Ariya, but most of the posts, at least mine, are only meant for fun... whether we'll ever get them or not, that even i dont know😊

But guys! Aren't the personal lives of characters already being showcased to a certain extent. Arjun's past with Sikander and Roshni. His quest for revenge is something I would classify as personal life related.

Recently they showed a scene involving Rathod and Arjun. There's something there and I'm sure more light will be shed on this situation.

Shree has been sidelined a bit in this situation, but hopefully something will be showcased about him.

Arjun is one of the Indian shows that I want to watch every weekend- unlike other shows that have peaks and valleys (interesting, then boring) Arjun is high octane, and fun to watch!

Its Gorky, the creator's unique style to drop these personal nuggets of each character spread at length in a carefully measured way.😆 Shree's turn too will surely come in its own sweet time.Its his way to try to keep the audience hooked to the show but there's a bit of slippery terrain there.Coz if he tries to keep his cards close to his chest too long I'm afraid it might remain there itself & the show would be ordered to wind up. Lets hope he keeps his latest promise to delve into Arjun-Rathore history.And soon.

The phrase "romantic crime thriller" in itself is an oxymoron for me. Crime and thrill have nothing to do with romance...the setting and the mood don't make me think of romance. They make me think of beating up idiots...but then again that's just me. I don't like idiots LOL
