Hope, Long time... 🤗
Like Aeryn said, I won't say I'm loving the current track. 😆 But I'm still not disheartened by the show. First off, MKAP started with a wrong message. When P gave up on a thug she hated, who was harassing her day in day out and ended up marrying him 😲 in spite the eve teasing fiasco; it silenced the semi-feudal social mindset that we had against it. MKAP started with a wrong note (for the society) but nonetheless left us giddy with delight. Reason: K ( the antagonist for that matter) was very engaging. To combat the blahs, he beat all the odds. Turned out, some of us (like me) watched the show only for K. The show succeeded. At least my problem started when K's novelty was completely drained out to a point where he seemed nobody but a supporting actor in the show. Then when I started perceiving the show without much expectation.
Without solid base, Aman(Mathurs) were introduced. The dull series started. TRP went down. Prolly Creatives wanted to try something different. Tried to raise our anxiety level-Aman as a double faced. Unfortunately, it was simply dragged kicking and screaming into a high melodrama that couldn't be maintained. Recent tracks seem to be inspired by bigamy which, despite being unlawful is still practiced in many parts of India. But it went haywire. It became one off-beam message in a painful and riotous symphony of husband/wife searching.
Messy love triangles are the quintessential soap storyline. It's the stuff of soaps. Cvs seem chickening out following the trend! so much that they had to cross all lines and bring in Shakti in the triangle. 😆 What can we do! Revel in the joy of soapdom and their triangles, though I preferred Aman-Arushi just for Arushi to regret and recede. But like you said, how boring it would have been to watch Arushi-Aman dull romance if everything had went out well.😛
Thakurs messed up misery should tickle us in the days to come. Its been quite sometime now since Prats, the protagonist seemed sidelined with her painfully unsuccessful missions, K's knack royally ignored. With that, current Man ka awaaz -Arushi was not a big shock to me. 😆 Its going to be sister Vs. sister under the same roof. Lets see if these new niches can turn around things to make us say - Its getting interesting. 😉 I'm glad I keep my logical switch off and take it for pure giggle.
Every episode I watch, I still want to know what will happen next...and next...and next..., even if the plot is crappy, its been kind of fun to pick fun at the story and the characters/actors. The slow, wacked story lines meant that if I've some work, I could do so and know that I could easily catch up with the story or not worry about missing an important plot point. 😃
