If I am breaking any rules by making this thread, then I am really Sorry Veenzzz !!!
I apologise...actually, I didn't know where to post this !!

It irks me when people say that - " It is just another show..."

At least for me it isn't !! It has been something special !!!!
I have never watched any show with such dedication and devotion...

It has been a reason to smile
It has been a route to take when the escapist mind wanted to just shut off from the real world
It gave me a need to express myself about how deeply I felt about 'a show' ...hence my first forum experience
It gave me a group of virtual friends who felt exactly the same...I am still in awe of the way it binds us all !!!
It motivated me to make VMs and write FFs...I truly never knew that I could do that !!
It made me discover the kid in me - gushing for no reason, fighting for no reason, jumping with joy and being sad for something that was totally unrelated to my own life !!
I wonder how some things affect us so deeply...

I am proud of the fact that it never took the route, which 'run of the mill' shows take to stay in business...I am proud to have been an 'Odhani fan'...

Through RBO and forum, I am proud to have come in contact with some really intellectual people, some respectable opinions... some really funny people who just throw quotes and make you smile the whole day... some gushing kids who teach you to stay positive no matter how bad things are... some peaceful souls who just know how to spread positivity and serenity... some negative opinions strong enough to stimulate you to take up the other end but are equally important for the balance in life...loads of creativity in form of Siggy's, VMs, FFs...this forum has truly a talented bunch of people...

loads of fun and hours of discussions... unnecessary fights... hopeless hopes... acting impulsively...gushing relentllessly...all because of a show - RBO !!

Thanks to everyone who became a part of my life through Odhani !!🤗
Life has never been the same since the day I started watching Odhani...

I know it is a show ( though, not 'just another one'...) but still it is a show and was prepared for it's end someday...though I would have preferred it go on forever...but that is impractical !!
So, whenever, it would have ended, we would have felt the same !!!

I just feel that the timing of it's end is not proper...we deserved better !!!

Having said all that, at least I decided to behave better than Starone
and give Rang Badalti Odhani
a pleasant, smiling, hopeful and loving farewell
wishing the team best for the future !!!!


Hope they reach heights of success and we are able to connect to their work once again as we did with Rang Badalti Odhani !!!!

~~~~~~~ Love You RBO and the Team ~~~~~~~



PS - It doesn't mean that I am not hoping for an extension !!!

amazing message Manita, I feel the same way. Life won't be the same after RBO, that's for sure! I went through some tough times since I started watching the show. I got through my exams, my brother had surgery, and waiting endlessly for my nursing license, landed my first job as a nurse, battled it out for awhile and lost my job last week. RBO made me feel better after a stressful shift. Reading the fanfiction, watching older scenes from the "golden era:" along with watching and making vms. I wrote a couple of fics. I made some great virtual friends here. I apologize immensely if i annoyed anyone with my ranting about how work was tough. ( You all know who are . hope we all can keep in touch anyway)

Overall I adored this show because it was different than others and we got to see for once the lead pair sharing good screen time, great dialogues, great doorbell scene, awesome unique nok-jok, a feeling of peacefulness and being content with a full entertainment package.

I salute creatives, cast& crew for a job well done.

Hey mani di,

beautifully written about the feeling for the show, though it is just the other show but close to d heart of odhanians and many more who just wait for 10 pm every night and watch d show after fighting with other family member to watch it ,who started calling us crazy and if due to match or something we cant able to watch then waiting for night repeat telecast 😛 😛

Mani, yes u really have said it all! I don't know what more I could add! I have not followed any show quite this way ever, either! And I have not come across fans that have been such sweethearts, with age and place being no bar to our bonding! It has been wonderful! I came across RBO at a low point and it lifted my spirits and mood each day! I don't think it would be an exaggeration to say, it helped me get through...a lot of bad days! I'm grateful to the wonderfully interactive team, and fear I will never get such warmth ever again...but I want to hope I will! As for u sweetheart , I love you! And to each and every Odhanian on the forum and FB...I love you all for the warmth and fun...will remember each of you always!!! Don't forget me-or else! 😃

Swapna maam, Yashji, Karan, Yashu, Karan G, Madhu,Garima, Saransh, Aliji, Rushali, Rushad, Khusbhu, Dadi, Haribha, and teh family driver, gauri ben, Mangal bha, hetal ben, and every cameo ...I have thoroughly enjoyed every bit of the show!If I have missed anyone...I hope i haven't!

Yashu and Karan we love your pairing sooo much! Wish you both the very best always in all future endeavours...and to all the team too!

God bless! (Seems I've just gone on a bit...but it's RBO and I cud go on an on!)

Love to all of you!
