Hi

hope you guys dont mind 😳 i found this old article and considering the mood towards kasamh se i took some relevent quotes to make this post.

Why are most of your serials in keeping with "the country's cultural values"?
Most of the rich people do not need values, most of the poor do not have time for them. Hence, middle class values are what my serials are about. These middle-class values are incidentally in keeping with the cultural ethos of the country.

Do you think kasamh se repersents these values? i dont think i need to say what i think i think it does through characters like pushkar and bani who are these middle class people working to live or values they abide by...want to see what others say...

Its characters have become like family members to everybody.

Well thats true 😉 considering thats probably why most of us here discussing them right ?

There is a school of thought that your serials tend to focus on transgressing women...
(interrupts) It is not necessary that those who care for their family are the backward type of women.

Yep well said people were saying that these characters especially banis not something from 21st centurys 😛 but it is true what is about bani that some people do not like ..she does jasoosi only because she cares about her family.

every family has certain characters who are good and bad, or rather, have particular habits.

some more annoying than others 😆 ! i.e raashi adament on getting ranveer married.....jygassa for being a vamp she cares in a way but why she have to be soo horrible 😕or is it a bad habbit.

Women like to see 'saas-bahu', 'bhai-bhabhi', 'ma-beti', 'nanand-devrani' relationships, the gossip, the misunderstandings, the jealousy, and above all, the unity in times of adversity.

Keeping with times, only the look has changed, a few new permutations and combinations have come in but the gist remains the same. It will be foolish if I switch over to some other track and allow my competitors to perform a dance of victory on an empty field!

See thats the reason she sticks to these storylines because its the viewers responsible maybe if we were more accepting of other storylines they might change there ways .....TV is for women but do they really want to do the saas bahu storylines?

Do you make sure with your writers that the scripts have not been plagiarised? .
It's happening everywhere and you can't do anything about it. At times, you may not have plagiarised, but since it exists in some book, someone springs up and you find yourself in a soup.

so basically people who say its copied storylines means that it might not always be intentional us has viewers tend to look to much into things right

Ok basically this is not in defence of anyone or for any specific reason i was just reading them and found them to be useful insight into kasamh se most will not agree but thought people might like to see it.

Nice find sis! 👍🏼 👍🏼 👍🏼

Some of the points Ektaji has touched on are very valid indeed. However, the things like cultural values... a few arguements can be made that show that KS doesn't preserve cultural values as much as one would expect...

I agree that Bani and Pushkar are well mannered and cultured characters. In fact, the good Ranvir, massi, Aditya and a few others also come across as cultured... however, the stories sometimes act as the culprit. The ONS story was as anti-cultural as one can imagine... also, no culture supports the lunatic intension of a wife trying to marry her husband off again! I personally think that culture has been sacrificed for attempted shock value in the stories 😒

I hope Ektaji is able to work some magic and recreate the feel good nature of serials like Koshish, Koi Apna Sa and other of her past works.

Everything else though, I pretty much agree with! 😊

Therefore...

GHANTEES Bajaao! 😃

God bless.

Dont be disappointed bro i am sure she knows what shes doing yaar even i said myself ks is gonna be boring till krishna comes along so god knows what ektas thinking...think about it the more she bores us now imagine how happy will be when krishna comes along..yeh but do ons not happen? just because jais soo loved does not mean she should not show it i am soo behind her every step of the way 😛 because at the end of the day shes not shown the dna report that will 99% sure prove that to be fake as well just need to have faith

I hope Ektaji is able to work some magic and recreate the feel good nature of serials like Koshish, Koi Apna Sa and other of her past works.

I dont expect you to agree with anything so glad that you do...you know i do what i feel...her works always great ks is slightly different to other shows and look where thats got her

Therefore...

GHANTEES Bajaao! 😃

God bless.
