After hearing my friend drool over a fictional character for hours every day like a 13 yr old with a manic crush, I started noticing how she would frequently mix up 3 names:

Dr Armaan
Jahanpana 6-pax Akdru Asad Ahmed Khan (and I would think these were multiple people!)
& THE (all hail) Karan Singh The Grover

I also started noticing how much the relatively normal girl started obsessing over 'Ideal Love' - She changed her FB Display picture to this Hair less Tattoo overdose guys pic with what seemed like wife number nth with a strange caption: Arman Ridzz lives in KaJen FOREVER -followed by an obscene stream of hearts * sparkles! Her cover photo changed from that of her mom to some dog she like to call 'Grover baby Breezer!' (and seriously he is anything BUT a baby!)

BUT THIS IS NOT A BASH NOTE! This is a cry for help!

My dear friend the other day told me 'If a guy slaps a girl its like he feels he owns her and that's 'kinda' attractive'

An Eyes-out-of-socket-WTH-expression-mouth-so-wide-I-could-beat-a-Venus-Fly-Trap was the only reaction I could give her!

I then watched many an episode of Qubool Hai and actually enjoyed the show until I got to how Mr-Perfect whack's the crap out of the rather bubbly Zoya chick (who I became quite fond of actually) Outraged I set out to find a place where I could discuss this issue and as I rage-searched the net... BANG!!! I found the motherboard of KSGians, I-Gush-OVER-Jennyians & QH Fever board- To be honest I liked this place, so I followed it for a few days until I realized people here were cool to forget that our 'Very Hot Eye Candy Asad' did something outrageous and I'm not the only one who noticed.

This is what Big Bachan Posted recently on a very related topic:

& This is ZEE TV's official statement:

https://twitter.com/zeecorporate/status/302662861874925568

My dear fanbotwas! it's frickin AWESOME to find love in places that you can escape into! It's even better that unrealistic romance gives us thrills & joy we never got from most BF's (unless obsessed or borderline psychotic) BUT its not cool to say we will INTENTIONALLY not discuss something that the PH keeps bringing up, industry legends tweet about & the very airing channel openly opposes!

You are the voice of India- don't shut down this voice & justify others in calling this place Grover Dudes Shrine! I really hope my post is accepted because after studying this forum & its rules thoroughly I wrote this topic to create awareness of something serious that the industry is taking seriously.

Say No to violence! Say yes to Qubool hai! & Enjoy Mr Six-packs dimples make up for this action & kindle a ridiculously intense romance we'll all love!

Say Qubool Hai to Freedom of expression!

Personally it's outrageous, but then again there are certain rules that are to be adhered to, in this forum, as the slap cannot be dissected any further. Talk about non violence and free speech my friend.

Honestly I have been miffed about the portrayal of women on Indian TV, specially the PH in discussion here.
There have been past and present portrayals of women that have totally taken me aback. It's very contrary to the fact that the women who are making these shows are not overtly suppressed and exercise the right to freedom and equality. Then why show a woman being subjected to violence and misery?

Hey welcome aboard...thanks ever so much for this post!The romaticicsm of violence on TV shows doees need to be adressed by the PH and such issues of violence shown should be addressed in the appropriate manner
Your friends example is exactly the point a minority of us here have been trying to get across,that romanticising violence in the name of love can leave an impact in all the wrong ways for all the wrong reasons on the young and impressionable.There has to be so line drawn of what can,, and should be shown,, in order to give out the right message...this is where legislation/censorship really needs to come into play.
Yes!we all are for the show and a memorable love story which hoepfully can go on to become an epic as they do have all the right ingredients,they just need to induce it all in the right way to bring about social change and awareness, if they are to leave any sort of mark with the romantic angle, and have us all glued to the screen for the right reasons and not just to drool at the good looks and mucular physique of the male lead, the issues at hand at the present moment, do need to be dealt with by the PH, only then will this show and it's contents be upto suiting the palate.of the vast and dieverse audience.

My very dear VenusFlyTrap, from one Newbie to another, a very warm welcome to you.

You make very salient points my friend, and you possess a mighty gift of the wit - thanks for making me laugh all the way through. Taking the Zee tweet, it just sounds really hypocritical of them does it not? It amazes and saddens me the avenues people resort to for the sake of TRP's. I know demand should equal supply and all that jazz but don't some people have a conscience? The problem is desensitization here... Indian telly has made this "un-real love" cool and desirable. And the majority of audiences passively accept it. And not only that, they mightily resist against change. They are like stubborn babies who need to be dragged screaming and kicking out of their heart-shaped fantasy worlds. This is a positive step by Zee BUT the portrayal in QH totally undermines their credibility. They are merely jumping on the bandwagon for the sake of hype. And that is a BITTER FACT.

Also, unfortunately, I regret to tell you, that since your post falls in the minority pov group, it will be very shortly closed. The afore-mentioned "fanbotwas" I bet have descended upon the report button like locusts. Also, since you are a Newbie, you will very soon be accused of being an "MID" - google it if you are not familiar with the term - people in this forum like putting new members in a box and the MID box with red warning signs labelled "basher" is their absolute favourite, especially if you do not come out guns blazing praising the male leads what and what nots. Those of us who cannot be put into boxes, we scare the livin' daylights outta them since they have to tolerate us on what they consider their exclusive drooling turf. Like we commit sacrilage just by being here. Yes my friend, you are behind enemy lines now and best of luck with that. I speak from personal experience. I hope you're outfitted for battle.

Edit: I do hope to see you around my friend. Take care and let's meet again in these strange lands 😳
