Sage, beautiful post! Agree with every word you said! Yes 4 Lions peddles romance, but they do not value it!
Let me illustrate! In the movie "Hitch" Will Smith plays the character of a guy who helps "love challenged" guys to make a connection with the women of his dreams! One such man comes to Will. He is an accountant, and in love with an heiress his company deals with! Allegra! Long story short, he does get her attention and she actually ends up falling for this slightly chubby but totally adorable guy! But then she finds out about the "help" he had! She breaks up with him!Then the guy Albert comes to Hitch and asks him to "fix" things! He tells him something lame like he can't fix everything, you have to accept sometimes things don't work, blah blah blah! NOT what a man madly in love and wants his women back wants to hear! He accuses him of making him "beleive" he could have a life with Allegra and now when he DOES beleive, refusing to support him in it! He tells him that he "Sells" love but he dosent beleive in it himself!Hitch of course gets all self righteous and indignant and tells him "Love is my life!". Albert's answer always resonated with me! He says; "NO! Love is your JOB!"That one line is the illustration of how Gul Khan and 4 Lions treats ALL love stories that they create! Though they act like Love is their life... Love is their JOB! That is why they have so little regard for their own creations! They make the audience fall in love! Then once they ARE in love, they count the dollars and laugh! Then they decide "we can do whatever we want now! We already hooked them in!" It is such a despicably cynical excercise! I have come to despise these makers for the way they treat the people that "LOVE" their work!As for the people who think Sanam is now "Jannat" coz a man she met two days ago CALLED her that? Delusion is the only word I can use to describe their state! Sanam is not in a romantic situation at all! She is in another country, away from her family, her husband, and in danger. She has witnessed a crime and now will unwittingly court enemity with the daughter of the very women who ruined her life once! This is irony at it's worst! I don't even know if I can handle watching this show anymore!Your right! Same jazz, different frequency! Just coz you rehash a story and call it "Season 3" it dosent become anything new! They are re-hashing the story of Asad, Zoya and Tanveer with Shaad, Sanam and Misbah! But this time with a slightly different premise! Even in the original story, Tanveer knew Asad before Zoya did! Here too Misbah had a claim on Shaad and now will lose it to Sanam/Jannat!Either ways, the thing I take from this is "Never trust love stories created by people who's JOB is love!" They don't feel about it the way we do!
