Some very valid points made! I liked your suggestions made to improve Astha's feelings towards Simran.
They definitely have to make a big time effort to show that Astha is special and the most important right now.
Unfortunately,they will have to leave Sia(who is mature in a grandmotherly way,as you say šI don't agree with that )out of their plans.
Their actions do not match their intentions...(though they mean well) Absolutely right on that!
In the scene that II mentioned where Simarn is telling her friend Shekar,about finding Astha(Sia),one does feel bad for Astha(Gudiya).
Wahwa,did you see it?I tell you...It's a very well done scene by one and all.Simran's excitement of giving the good news,Shekars's confusion,Simran's emphasis on"my Astha",Abhi's discomfort and awkwardness on meeting Shekar,and finally Astha's reaction.
This Ajai Sinha is so good, then why is he testing our sensibilities???
Maybe he should read your suggestions and incorporate them in his story to end the serial on a happy note š
Cheers
