Fine, I admit it. I have a problem. I am addicted to a show that goes against every fiber of my being. I absolutely despise RK and I think Madhu is selling her personhood in the race to sound righteous. Radha's decision making power is exclusively in the hands of her limbic system whilst the more "evolved" brain structures are lacking. How you ask? Well, unless you have been living under a rock, you should be familiar with her outrageous demand of grandkids and hurling of baseless accusations against Madhu.

Deepali reminds of the typical one dimensional villain who ulitmately fails in her Doofensmirch-esque plans. I like Geoffery (Game of Thrones) better than I do Deepali and that says something. Sikki tries to be funny but I have never laughed at any of his jokes. Painting your wife's nails only makes you hen pecked if you are in the 19th century (seriously, the comedic team in MB needs a smack on the head). Bittuji swings like a Frisbee. Trishna has shown two extreme of a character but still sounds relatively sane in the zoo like environment. Padmini is by far my favourite on screen. She has the right amount love, guilt, anger, understanding, etc. that makes a character worth watching.

Sultan is unnecessary in my opinion. He is boring and unreasonable. I don't find his arguments/dialogues/ character particularly appealing and I simply skip the scenes when he is on. The same goes for his employee and son. Though I think one should be more careful when criticizing a child. If a little kid happens to read your comment, they are not likely to take it as constructive criticism and I sincerely hope the kid does not come on to this forum.

RK, that is whom you came here to read about anyways. Am I right or am I right? I think he is easy on the eyes: the number one factor that pulls me in right after a decent storyline. I watched from the wedding plot onwards and I didn't expect RK to "change" but atleast mellow down. I am rather disappointed with the level of psychosis shown. There comes a point when arrogance is no longer acceptable; RK has crossed that limit a long time ago. He is beyond the point of redemption. Here I would like to bring up Don Draper (Mad Men) a sexist, racist, stuck up, obnoxious, insert all bad adjectives in the dictionary pig. But, I still appreciate him and watch the show because the story has made it clear that he is NOT going to change and his actions are not GOOD. I feel as though that distinction is lacking in RK. When he dances to these soft romantic numbers, such an atmosphere is created that we ought to see his "pain, love" and other non-existent emotions (I cannot read eyes so don't give me that ridiculous argument). Essentially, what I am saying is, I will accept RK with open arms if his image is not glorified. If the writers stop making his character look redeemable, I might fall in love with him again.

As far as the jodi goes, I think Rishabh and Madhu belong together and if I were writing the story, I would end the show on a note where you can clearly see Rishabh is flawed and that Madhu is in the wrong for staying. It is very easy to say the girl should run but that is often not what happens in real life and such an ending would be a perfect descriptor. One of the people I follow/ stalk on the internet is a crazy academic but watches "Real Housewives" so, WTH I will continue watching MB without shame. Totally degrading show that I somehow enjoy FTW!

Awesome post. You have described dilemma of MB-EIEJ fans very well.

I dont like the current track & can't decipher where this story is headed to!! Every epi adds to my confusion and I cant seem to decide who should I be frustrated 'more' upon?? Is it RK or madhu .. Or radha or padmini or dipali! Sultan & co donot count for me as I could never relate or understand the presence of these characters!

I want to be relieved from this show as the show instead of providing me any entertainment is adding stress to already tension-filled life! As if real life issues were not enough, I have to deal with stress of RK & Madhu marital (or not??) life!

Problem that you have mentioned is widespread!! I hate the show like I love it!!!

So many parts! I'm going to go by paragraph.

Paragraph One

Did you just say what I think you said in my presence? You despise RK?


Bahaha I'm kidding. As a normal human being who isn't madly in love with RK, I would probably despise him too.
Oh you go neuro-girl! Good job! You got it! That's right! Take that Radha! Jassu be hatin' on you.


Paragraph Two

Oh my god. Can I just say I love you for comparing Dipali to Doofenshmirtz. That just made my day ahaha! No idea who Geoffery is but okay!

What! You've never laughed at Sikki? I remember laughing once. It was in the hospital where Sikky and Kuku were like being interviewed or something and he said something funny.

LOL. Bittuji! 😆

Trishna, I agree.

Padmini, sometimes I feel she overreacts but it's a mother's instinct I guess which I have no experience with. I like her character too though, sometimes.


Paragraph Three

HOW can you hate on the gorgeous rainbow coloured eye man?! I mean, I don't know what colour his eyes are...so yeah...

Look at this guy!

About the little boy, I completely agree. I've seen some posts and I feel so bad for him. I think he's adorable as a child.


Paragraph Four

I'm scared to read this paragraph just because it says "RK" in bold.

OH phewf! "Easy on the eyes!" I'm glad you agree. Eye CANDY!

Can I have him? Is he mine yet? I want him. Sigh...

Anyways, where was I? Oh right! I watched from the wedding onwards as well!

I agree that at a point, I thought they were showing RK as completely insane. I couldn't even watch the show anymore and that hurt! I needed to see my RK but I didn't like seeing him like that! I just wish RK would at least try to fix things instead of ruining things more. :(

I'm still confused with RK's character and what the CVs plan to do with him but I love him and that'll never change. 😆


Paragraph I forget what number, but the last paragraph

AW thank you for saying they belong together. 😳

Bahaha glad you're going to keep watching it! Way to go Jassu!


I loved this post! I agree with almost every point. The show is an addiction. The show is odd/unique in it's own way ish but it's hard to stop watching it. I mean I like it and I don't at the same time. I don't know. But I feel ya.

looks like the length of my essay is killing you. the gifs are getting sadder as we go😆

my next mission is to get you to watch GOF but that can wait for some time so dont be trippin

me Paddo is the best. End of discussion.

Paragraph Three

HOW can you hate on the gorgeous rainbow coloured eye man?! I mean, I don't know what colour his eyes are...so yeah...

Look at this guy!

blue eyes are scary looking. I have a friend who I have never looked in the eye because they are like a snake. plus, I dont like KSG so sultan is a far cry.

About the little boy, I completely agree. I've seen some posts and I feel so bad for him. I think he's adorable as a child.

Excellent post God finally i have one more person caught in the web, as ME. I try hard to see what madhu is trying to, a lesson or a revenge...her ways are beyond my level. When i try to sympathize with sultan more than his painful childhood, his ruthlessness for his own kid, irritating involvement in madhu's life and he not trying to inject somesense into aryan's mind abt madhu irks. And RK, the sole reason i am still on show is no longer interesting. I fail to make out what he is? An OCD case, true lover who lost his ways for ego, pure MCP, a man who puts a facade of superiority complex and ego for painting his deep insecurities, psycho...my head is spinning. He is flawed yet appeals you in a way or two being true to his character...but what is his character Psycho or Negative or Grey?? Sorry if this sounds senseless

JASSU! Don't be hating on my gifs! 😆


See, my gifs aren't so bad...
Oh who am I kidding. My gifs are terrible.


Sorry, I'm done spamming your serious post with gifs now!

(Unless you literally meant they're getting sadder and sadder, like emotion wise. In that case, ignore above^.)
