Dear [???] CV's, POP's,Channel Honchos,
I have always been taught to start communication by addressing and complimenting on the positive points and gradually veer towards Negative points ...doing so I have been told will put the receptor in an accommodating frame of mind and he may even heed our suggestion and requests ...But You , My dear CV's have successfully disabused me of this notion ...so, without trying to search out for the positives , which I am hardbound to find..Let me pour out my angst against the steady degeneration of this show.
We have been watching the downward spiral of this unique show with increasing alarm and as is our wont, we have even given our opinion and views [unsolicited by u , I admit it ] for the betterment of this show .since we felt that this was our show, and the CV's would listen to our likes and dislikes ...and also pick out the views and ideas to make this unique Show an unparalleled one in the Annals of TV History ,but All our innocent assumption have been ground to dust and we awaken from our dream a bitter and depressed viewer...
U say There was a last minute "CREATIVE CHANGE" ...and the Track was changed into Uniting Shakthi and Aarushi ...And I say It is total BS ...we are not wet behind the ears , CV's that we will swallow the bait that u have laid out to us ...This track was on course right from the Diwali episode and was not due to last min CREATIVE CHANGE but to an unforeseen CREATIVE DIFFERENCE between a ABC and XYZ ..so stop hiding ur creative difference under the dressing of AUDIENCE FEEDBACK.Had you been so sensitive to AUDIENCE FEEDBACK , My dear CV's ..Then U would have realized that :
1. we wanted Krishna to earn,
2. We wanted Pratigya to defend Krishna against her father,
3. we wanted The Father-Son moments,
4.we wanted to know the reason for Ghanti Dadi's silence,
5. we wanted Aman to be unmasked and the sax's learn a important lesson from it,
6. we wanted Sax to understand the character of Krishna and realize what a gem he is,
7. we wanted Adarsh to get out of his Tum-Tum,
8. we wanted Progression in Komarsh relationship,
9. we wanted Komal to grow as a person and not do a yoyo..
None of this wish has been granted ...but what u do CV's is thrust an uninteresting Aarushi into our midst ..
what were u hoping for by putting Aarushi in the center stage..I would have understood had she been under the spotlight for a month, learns her lesson and retired sadder,wiser and above all quieter...But i t is with chagrin we are noticing that Aarushi is growing at the cost of other character's ..The supposed leads are reduced to walk on parts ..They come stand wring their hands, while Arushi shouts her dialogues, and forces us to change the channel ...In which Ivory tower do u live Cv's ..That U have been unable to sense that viewer's have no empathy,sympathy or liking for this character ..do u think ur continued and forced feeding of Aarushi may force us to reconsider her and her attributes and we may eventually take a liking for her ....For ur information CV's a bitter pill is a bitter pill ..No amount of sweetener will make a bitter pill attractive ...and a pill can be taken only in small dosage ...As of now we are awash with this pill and are ready to puke ..
If u clarify and say ..that this is for Kesar's redemption, Then I am dumbstruck, cos how will she be empowered..if she fights with Aarushi..it will be two woman fighting for a man, if she is silent ..then where is the emancipation?? ..Had u shown her opposing her Husband when he visits the kote's , or lodging an FIR when talks of second marriage was going on. or beginning to speak out against her in laws cruelty,her husband's abuse ..I would have said ..Girl..u are on ur way to light .But this is stupid beyond belief...At a single stroke, U have made a laughing stock of an sacred institution called marriage and an ass of Law, which terms Second marriage illegal.Going further u have decimated the core character of Pratigya , who was always stubborn and never gave up until it was her way or high way.Yesterday was a blot in the MKAP viewing, for u showed that law can be broken, that when Law is being broken, mann ki awaz shuts down and stands by helpless.
Wow !! hats off to u CV's for teaching us that.
If u think , showing two sisters fight each other will be interesting ..Then u got another think coming..the SIS WAR is as old as TV inception and we have had our fill of the Sis fight in every form and have no stomach for it ...moreover this is a hackneyed plot which has been done to death ...Dont tell me ur creatives have run out of ideas..if so ..kindly inform ur CV's to go thru the threads posted in IF and u will find tons of ideas ranging from bizarre to genius..Utilize them and Bring this laughable and pathetic track to closure..I am sure U can do it,As I have seen the swiftness with which u cut off that Doctor when we took a wholesale dislike of his character ...
Technical dept seems to be on AWOL ...I am saying this going by the shoddy and sloppy direction, and the blooper a day that seems to be popping up due to irresponsible editing ...There is no straight line movement of track..it is going through fits and starts ..
Alls is not well in ur sets ..CV's and it comes shining thru from ur star cast's Body language ...There is a weariness, a gloom ..and even the effervescent Thakur's are going thru their motion's ..Morale seem to be at an all time low and this is getting translated in the acting ...
ur feeble attempts to show everything hunky dory by way of getting Monika, Ankit and the reticent Arhan to talk to us only reinforces this feeling..It is also obvious that the Actors themselves are not sure of the feasibility of this track ...hence their over enthusiastic request to watch for the upcoming Masala ...My sincere request to u is ..U have got a bunch of talented Actors, capable of setting the screen on fire..Use them instead of certain actors whose very presence induces a yawn ...if u are obstinate about focusing on this track , disregarding the views of the audience..Then be prepared for Migration from ur serial ..for at the end of the day , I am investing my time and energy to watch a good serial with average acting to above average acting, which at the moment ur serial is unable to deliver..Rather than watching ur serial out of any loyalty, I would prefer to change the channel or switch off ...In other words..We are not willing to put up with Cr@p...
Hoping that u will listen to our Mann ki Awaz and alter the course and bring in the Kriya and Komarsh to the forefront and also pick up the many open ended plots and follow them till the end instead of focusing on irrelevant and pathetic story line.
