I was looking forward to the starting of PV when the promos were being shown, but after watching the show for 2 weeks now, my feelings are ambivalent. Bear with me and my ranting for a little while plzzz...
Things that have not worked for me and feel the CV's should have built a stronger foundation: I will start with the most recent.

1. Aarthi's duppata gets stuck in a locked door (yash has special cars i suppose) , once stuck, the first reaction for any human being is to look back and pull it out, but here she stands staring ahead... waiting for her prince charming to first observe that something got stuck, then get off his seat and open the door and let the duppata go and during this whole time Arathi does not even look back... come on... bad scene!!!!

2. Arathi's relationship with Ansh is over done and Yash and his daughters relationship is downplayed so completely.

3. She has tied her duppata and she falls when running... its not like she broke a leg, she could have got up and still run, but she stayed stuck on the ground... looking helpless and that characterization was weakly done... i have frnds who are single mothers too and they fall, but get up and ensure that the child finishes!!!

4. She is a single mother, but she stutters when the TT asks her for a ticket... come on... speak up lady... u have not committed a crime...u just walked into a AC class... not anything else.

5. A lady who is a guest at a wedding screams at Arathi for not telling her she is a divorcee...come on .. the slinging match about thalak shudha and marriage and the crap lecture... badly done...

Arathi who has played a very strong character earlier as Jhansi Ki Rani is making an admirable effort to portray a weak and vulnerable character but so far not succeeding very well for me. Yes, she is still n love with that no gooder ex husband of hers... and I am sure there are insecurities and a certain amount of hesitation in moving forward, but her portrayal is not coming across...naturally. I hope as a stronger woman she will fall in very well...have to wait and watch!!!

GC - Oh yeah.. I love the man too... but in this serial so far.. other than the awesomely sad eyes, we have seen nothing to like so far!!! He looks Hot... so all his fans forgive me... but as the character Yash... he still has to grow on me...

The foundation that the CV's have laid - very weak... they could have spent a few weeks on each of their lives individually and without the public humiliation and challenge to get Arathi married, or the need to create unnecessary scenes of her failure more than his inability to handle the children without the other spouse would have been wonderful!!!

I would have liked a lot more depth built in before rushing into this marriage so when the marriage actually happens, we would have been part of the journey that made them say yes to the marriage!!! There has been no depth and I feel i have joined the party late... and missing too much that happened earlier and maybe there will be many flashbacks to help understand ...but there had to be more of a foundation than the current reasons for which Arathi said yes ... or Yash for that matter!!!😭

Coz if Arpita had passed away 2 or 3 years agao, are we saying during this time, bhabhi and ma didnt take of the cutie pie daughters, that suddenly today over a hair oiling incident a issue is made...dint work for me at all...

Sorry for such a long rant... but had to say it... I love both of them individually but i am not sure the sparks will fly... Wait and Watch

Your thots?

That is why the trp will keep on dropping with the show being cancelled very soon. As writer have written is the characters going to click with the audience. At this time no.
I started to watch it but stop.
While Arti is a single mother, she is not a struggling single mother because she has her very supportive in-laws. Totally agreed with the druputta scene it way so ridiculous. And the race was done purely for sympathy but I was boo hoo.
The scenes I remember is Yash with his 1st wife and daughters they made me go sigh...
The next best scene for me was when the little boy was praying to God and he said Bhawan thanks. I had tears in my eyes. The show is extremely slow and trying to gain sympathy for characters that does not work. The little boy wants a father but the little girls does not lack a mother.
The sympathic character for the female audience would have been Yash as struggling single father but the CV did not capitalize on that they took the normal root of a crying female lead and as every-one pointed out very unbalance story.
They are also overplaying the hot grumeet choudhary...
Alas waiting for the ax to fall on the show if the cv doesn't get their act in order.

I don't wanna say anything, except that YOU NEED TO GIVE SHOW a TIME! 😊


Have some patience, in just TWO week what more and how much can we judge any characters? 😕


And the show is mainly on Aarti and Yash, which AarYa story has not even started yet! The CRUX of the show is a STORY between these TWO! Social factors are there but they are not the CENTER of the attraction!


Till date, I liked this show and if you have seen that AarYa scene where they both were sitting on stairs near river or something, it was THE MOST BEAUTIFUL Transition I have seen! The director proved its capability with that scene and by far, I liked everyone's performance too minus that servant! 😆


The main theme of the story has not even started yet, so I can't particularly judge it in Black and White coz other factors measures !


And personally, I like this show and just for PV I left another show with same time slot and I live in India so my TRP contribution is for PV only! 😆


In ANY DAMN show you will find this illogical things but then its on you, if you really don't wanna watch it then you really won't! Be it small illogical things or be it great story! Excuses are always there! And I personally believe that show comes out in existence with many things and loads and loads of Hard work! So I only like to appreciate the GOOD things rather pointing out the BAD points! But that is entirely my nature, my POV and my thinking! I don't like to point out anyone's or any SHOW's weaknesses! That is not me. 😳


I am giving this show a chance coz only two weeks has passed, there's lot more to come yet! And honestly, I am waiting for AarYa story only! 😳 Plus, I am fan of Mature, Subtle and Unconventional Romance, for me that is the USP and not family problems and main thing, I watch ANY DAMN show only and only coz of HOT and SEXY guy and GC is my guy, he is my man so I am gonna watch as far as GC is there or until Yash die one day .. ! 😆


That was completely my POV, I hope I have not offended anyone! 😊

I am one fan of Gurmeet Choudhary that hopes it succeed. I don't speak or understand Hindi but I watched the Ramyaan on You tube and I liked him as Ram. I also looked at him as Maan but I am not so crazy as every-one. I appreciated him as an actor and a human being..

The reason I mention closing is because in my country we get Zee Tv shows and in my house we watch all Zee Tv shows from Choti Bahu, jansi Ki Rani to the show that PV replaced. PV is too late in the night for us but on arrival from work the repeat occurs. While I watch it my mother doesn't and she is the one that watches all Zee Tv shows. I started to watch it and I so wanted it to succeed because of all the negativity the actor has been receiving. I also try to encourage her to watch it. In fact she pointed out in the Promo he had on too much makeup.
Having experience Zee shows I can tell you the number of shows that got the axe because of falling trps in India.
While it is easy to turn off the television Zee Tv will be looking at the numbers. My comments is simply to give this viewers feedback.

I appreciate your concern,but its way too early to worry about the show closing down. Come on its just been 2 weeks,or 10 episodes to be more precise. And the show has 2+ trps in both weeks. Yes some of us are a little disheartened with the fall in trps,but it doesnt take away from the fact,that the show has been able to make its mark among the viewers in such a short span. Many shows that are at top today,had to struggle for many weeks to touch the mark of 2 trps. And we have done it from start itself. Yes trps would fluctuate as any show takes at least few weeks time to establish itself, but that doesnt mean that we are not doing well. And the real story hasnt even started yet. So we should also have a little patience. That doesnt mean that we dont criticize the show,when it goes wrong, but we should have faith in the story and concept.

What Show closing down with 2+ trps ..when where 😲😲😆😆...Zee TV had run Bhagonwali with 0.8 trps for 2 yrs and here talks of show closing down happening ..OMG OMG 🤣🤣🤣...
Anyways jokes apart ...isn't it too early to draw judgements or conclusions based on just 10 episodes where leads dint even meet 😳
I hv seen Mittals ka work in their star plus show DABH as well where the starting month was similar ..very slow and dragging and we all know that show started with 1.4 trps ..correct me if I m wrong plss 😳...when did it pick up ?? After 2 months when Sandhya and the guy got married and today its rulling the charts with 5+ trps ...
So all I will say is slow and steady always wins the race 😳 ,,,,starting mein u do exceptional and then after few months if u fall down ,that becomes the death knell for a show but starting mein if u go slow but then pick up gradually ,then it survives for long 😳
Few of the points I agree in this post regarding Aarti and her kid getting over exposed while Yash and his kids r rarely shown ...Also Aarti should not b shown too much of a cry-baby as she has faced tough situations in life .. and lastly the pace needs to pick up a bit 😊..I hope the CVs work on these 3 departments 😊
Rest of the points ,I feel r needed in any and every daily soap 😊...A daily soap's success does not depend on a strong foundation but depends on a consistent growth 😳

completely disagree with you about aarti
she is awesome but there should be balance between yash and aarti scenes
