Hi KHZAM fans,

I'm new to this forum, but I do keep up with the episodes and follow some of the posts here. I wanted to share my thoughts on the concept of this show in light of the current track. Similar to a lot of you here I started watching this show for 3 reasons - Gautami Gadgil, Manav and the storyline of a teenage girl struggling with life after the death of her father.

In light of the recent track I am a little concerned, depending on how this plays out it could either be a typical saas-bahu saga or it could be a progressive show exploring the concept of the effects of remarriage on children and the relationship step-children can share with a step parent. Personally I don't want Shruti - Sanjay and the kids to live with Sanjay's family but that's a different soap box I have all together.

What I really hope not to see is the typical saas-bahu drama where the evil mother in law and in laws all gang up and make life hell for the new members of the family. It'll be really sad, regressive and redundant to see how all the evil members gang up - create misunderstandings and ultimately succeed in separating Shruti and Sanjay - that'll be really really pathetic.

What I would like to see is now that Shruti and Sanjay realize that their deep friendship turned into deep love somewhere down the road - how they portray a mature love story - where it's more about the love, understanding, friendship and companionship rather than the usual run of the mill romance.

More importantly what I'm more curious to see is the plight of the children in light of their mother's new relationship. I hope CVs focus more on Ami and Khusboo and how they deal with the new man in their mom's life, how they understand he isn't there to replace their father but be a friend and father figure to them. I want to see how they cope with peer pressure and how society looks at them and how they handle and stand up for themselves.

Shows like this are much needed to bring to light the progression in society and how these things happen and how everyone has the right to take decisions that make them happy. There should be nothing wrong with wanting to move on in life if you find someone who can accept you and your existing responsibilities.

Sorry for the long post guys - do share your thoughts!

I agree completely. They have an opportunity here either make history by showing a progressive topic properly or make a complete hash of it by focusing on the saas-bahu saga. We can only wait and watch. Hopefully the episodes in the last few weeks are an exception and not an indicator of future episodes.

And totally in line with you regarding focusing on the kids. The biggest change would be for them for sure and it'll be good to see that captured with sensitivity. Since this is a soap there was no choice for Shruti and kids except to move into Sanjay's huge joint family home since that opens up opportunity for more drama. In a real life scenario, it would probably play out differently

Also, I hope they close the loop with regards to the other sub plots like the cause for Harsh's suicide, insurance stuff etc. Its a little frustrating when viewers are taken for granted by introducing them to plots and then left hanging as if the plots never existed. Shows a lack of respect for the intelligence of the people watching the show, I feel.
