Take the story of domestic violence, do mockery of it by turning it to a love story and the selfless love of the abused towards abuser and then the abused falling in "true love" of the abuser...is in itself mockery of the ones who got or are getting abused ...
your show relates to them, their wounds pop up again , i was not physically abused, but i know psychological and emotional abuse is no less painful, and NO , I SAY NO, NOTHING in the world can get the abuser to LOVE AND FORGET the abuse. forgiveness can be earned, can be given, relation can be made...but love ...HELL NO...

so i will again say...no we are not over-reacting, if cvs wanted redemption, they should not have shown abuse or they should not have shown physical disrespect earlier...yes since it was revenge all along..it was not not physical intimacy,,,it was physical disrespect, a kind of abuse if you are a woman, you would know what i am saying...

as for the abuse that they are going to show, in that case the realistic end would be shlok's redemption and forgiveness from aastha but not love...that is how it should be...

but since someone on the forum said that its "reel life" not "real" ...they cannot show realistic approach so good luck but i am not in for this ride...it mocks my hurt...to think one can take abuse so lightly to show one falling for her abuser...

i will hang on for a while...with the forum ... because i loved the show...i felt not only for all the characters misery, past, present and future, but also all the girls and boys who face this hell everyday in real life...
i won't leave this show based on a few episodes or a few segments...but i am not very optimistic now...
i knew we were expecting revenge to come in the picture...we were ready for it and it was justified on shlok's part but i for one was not ready for the ripping of shlok's character as has been shown...
i don't know i feel more bad for aastha's doom or for murder of what could have been a very interesting character of shlok with his bitterness and strong "good" principles always bumping into eachother

People going thru abuse can never think i will change him with love HELL NO NO NO. Even for them to get that taught is very scary. I dont know how can CV's Revive the shlok's Character after the physical abuse. In real life people going thru the abuse will sure feel it as mockery of the situation. Hope they show sholk's hate/revenge in different way than the segment we saw.

Nice post 👍🏼

I am happy that CVs are providing awareness but its a fact that its difficult to get people to take bitter medicine but just sugar coat it and suddenly a lot more people take it. CVs are trying to show reality in a sugar coated version. Honestly, if i have known that the drama story is about an egoistical male lead with bitter past, i wouldn't have started on this drama but now i am emotionally invested. I am a simple girl who want anjali to be helped but i want my ashlok too.
i want him to realize his mistakes and beg aastha for mercy and somewhere i expect her to forgive him because this is my nature, my culture, i want my first love to be my last love. Yes, i used word ''me'' because when we watch aastha at some point we relate, be it talking with my fiance secretly or crying at the thought of leaving my house forever.

I know in real life aastha's don't survive, they are crushed down and lost. No shlok will ever repent or say sorry but this is my chance to see shlok bend down and i want it. i want redemption track.
Guys let CVs handle it, if they want to show what real shlok's do, let them do it, may be someone will learn from it.

so i will again say...no we are not over-reacting, if cvs wanted redemption, they should not have shown abuse or they should not have shown physical disrespect earlier...yes since it was revenge all along..it was not not physical intimacy,,,it was physical disrespect, a kind of abuse if you are a woman, you would know what i am saying...

as for the abuse that they are going to show, in that case the realistic end would be shlok's redemption and forgiveness from aastha but not love...that is how it should be...

shlok doesn't love her but aastha does and some part of her heart will always belong to him. she might never forgive him but she will also never forget him.

but since someone on the forum said that its "reel life" not "real" ...they cannot show realistic approach so good luck but i am not in for this ride...it mocks my hurt...to think one can take abuse so lightly to show one falling for her abuser...
Everything in this life is serious, learn to take things lightly because otherwise it becomes difficult to live happily and this is personal experience. I respect your views, you should respect other persons view and so on, the biggest problem in this world is lack of acceptance, we try to put each thing in its proper corner and label it.

i will hang on for a while...with the forum ... because i loved the show...i felt not only for all the characters misery, past, present and future, but also all the girls and boys who face this hell everyday in real life...
i won't leave this show based on a few episodes or a few segments...but i am not very optimistic now...
I left a show on same principles and later i realized that it still rules trps which means people accept those things, so when something is wrong say it but don't leave your community. you are a friend, a member of this forum, stay and let us know your opinion, our opinions might clash but it doesn't mean ur views are wrong, its just our thoughts are different. 😆

i knew we were expecting revenge to come in the picture...we were ready for it and it was justified on shlok's part but i for one was not ready for the ripping of shlok's character as has been shown...
Shlok's character is what is to be expected from a son of Anjali and NA. He will always be like this, he might mellow down but never completely change. If aastha really loves him then she will have to accept him and his family, only those trees bear fruit which know how to bend. She will bend yet never break and one day he will bend too after all he is human too

i don't know i feel more bad for aastha's doom or for murder of what could have been a very interesting character of shlok with his bitterness and strong "good" principles always bumping into eachother.

Feel appropriate emotions😉 when aastha is treated badly we should voice it but we should say to make her stronger because honestly shlok type people never grow weaker,aastha's only option is to grow and to become equal to him, only then everything will work.


At end once again sorry if anything i said hurt anyone. now i hope someone read my essay, i understand your comment now misti😆😆

@bold i hope that too...but i think we are hoping against hope...because cvs have chosen their path...and it is a very big step they have taken.

i think they wanted us to relate this situation to NA/anjali to SHLOK/AASTHA track...kind of comparison...but this has made this issue tooo sensitive and it is a high point from where there are 99% chances for the show to be stretched away from reality...
and it is my immense love for the show that now i am feeling totally betrayed.

how will they revive shlok...its beyond me...lets wait and watch...

for me shlok has lost his charm at the moment for me...his decietful ways were more interesting...

for me its just curiosity now that what in the heaven's name would CVS do to make aastha LOVE shlok now...i am not talking of forgiveness...one can forgive but not love

aastha and shlok may do or die from here...i give a damn...she may cry to death or fight the clan...but loving shlok??????

I agree that physical or verbal abuse is not as glamorous as portrayed on television. ( have close family and friends that have undergone the same), but you will not believe how many women still continue loving their abusers and it is very difficult to break all ties , due to financial,emotional or family issues. So Astha might stay around if she has been threatened or is emotionally invested in shlok. Coming to shlok's character, we know from the kolhapur episode that he is attracted to her, but he also has a very dark side. So it is upto the CVs to maintain a fine balance between the two . If shlok turned good overnight, I as an audience would feel cheated and give up on the show, I want him to maintain his dark persona. At the same time, I do not want him so evil , like NA, that there is no hope for redemption. I want a dark hero not a villain. So yes, it is tricky for the cvs to maintain that fine balance by not showing too much physical abuse etc. I hope they do a good job, and for heavens sake, don't change his personality even when he starts accepting his feelings for her. But I do want it to take some time before he reaches that point.
