The bashing of actors/characters is going overboard in the forum.
It is very important to distinguish between characters and actors. You may not like a particular character, but that does not imply that the actor be bashed.
As far as characters are concerned, all three - Raj, Divya, Sarita are grey complex character. It is another thing that the execution of the show has been so bad and creatives were so obsessed with their theme that they only bothered to focus on emotions of one character (Sarita) from the very beginning and neglected other two main characters (Raj and Divya).
The creatives are so great that they have managed to alienate a big group of fans. On one hand, they managed to anger a lot of fans of PV1 too the way they sloppily ended PV1 and introduced PV2. Then they also managed to repel fans of PV2 actors the way these actors were sidelined in the promotion of PV2 too.
Now that ratings have fallen (not surprised), they are sidelining one important character (Divya) and have transformed a complex character (Sarita) into a one-dimensional boring character. The third character (Raj) is shown so topsy turvy that his actions most of the time do not even make sense.
But none of actors are to be blamed for execution and all three are doing a good job. Even they have fabulous couple of side characters (Sangeeta and Sanjay) who unfortunately were introduced in a very over-the-top manner.
In any case, many viewers have deserted the show not for actors but for the storyline, execution, screen play and characterization.
