Its true that many of the times in fact all the times our thinking or way of seeing things towards the episode changes after reading posts but its not the case with the normal viewers,Not everyone go in depth to analyse every word & move of a character & hope the CV's work it out to make the character more clear...I know they cant be 100 straight & clear with a character but this much complication is not good for a show ..

Yes...and thank you!! Its high time the cvs make their characters more defined. Hey they are the foundations of a show...they cant be seen confused and vacillating and oscillating all the time. Then, how are the viewers supposed to identify with them, if they change drastically with every scene.

Yes, I saw that interview too and what stayed with me was the question...What is Paro thinking?? And her answer...no one knows what Paro is thinking. And that actually does point a finger on overall confusion, whether it is deliberate or accidental is a different story.
All I know is confusion never helps a show, especially in a main lead's characterization. Be it Paro or Rudra, if they are not understood clearly, then they are not sympathized or empathized with...and that is a big loss to the show. Hope they rectify this soon. And yes we all love this show, but lately the abuse is getting too much and I have been questioning myself...might as well quit this forum😊

Hello!
Sanaya's interview made me think that the confusion about Paro's thoughts was a deliberate ploy by the CVs - again I am not sure why and how it fits into the bigger picture apart from maybe Paro is just too confused herself at the moment and is trying to find her footing - I hope that the writers of the show take onboard comments about both Rudra and Paro - so that more people can connect to them as I think the story is wonderful and has lots of potential and the low TRPs are disheartening.
I definitely don't think you should quit the forum! - we need lots of different viewpoints to make us think about the characters and story in a different way and ultimately whether we agree or not it should lead to a deeper and better understanding of the characters and the story which is what makes the experience of watching the show a much richer one
At least no one can accuse our forum of not being passionate - as we await the passion on screen!

Yes, the low TRPS are disheartening for us, just imagine how bad team RR feels when all their hard work is not appreciated as much as it deserves.
Whatever the reason behind the confusion, deliberate or accidental, its not good and it needs to stop. They cannot mess around with the leads, cause their lies their main connect and USP of the show.
In the last one day, all my posts have been targeted, and I have been hit at personally...phew..no show is worth your dignity and self respect. But thanks for making me think again...😊

And why should u have to go to such lengths just so they can understand some characters and their actions...after all its not rocket sciene!! Obviously...the cvs somewhere need to be more n sync with the normal viewers mind.



Thanks Eveline. I do all this because I don't want them to get fed up & quit watching RR.

Eveline I hope I don't get bashed up for saying this but Paro's character has been inconsistent from the start. In an attempt to show her pure, simple and naive they have just ended up showing her as a little dumb.
For a girl who has gone through so much, she is very very naive which is hard to digest for a normal educated person watching the show. Infact these village girls are more street smart inspite of being less educated than any city girls. If Maithili is smart, why can't Paro be as well. She is the lead for god's sake.

And like you have mentioned not everyone has the time of the day to analyze any fictional character. People back home switch from one serial to another. So I am totally not surprised by the low TRPs. I wish had that kind of free time to sit and analyze these characters to make sense of their behavior.

Lol at this post since I was influenced by a couple of these posts myself! I am not anti Paro at all but she really confused me with her seeming need to have Rudra voice his love for her when she wholly plans to leave him. One of the very good writers on the forum explained it in a way that resonated with me. Thank goodness for that. It gave me perspective on Paros character and decision making.

first I don't see where I have said that paro defenders don't genuinely feel what they write?? Nowhere...wrong interpretation again. On the contrary, good writing is a passion that comes only when the heart is involved. And where have I said that they do it just for the sake of it??? Kindly explain how did my post give you that impression. Neither am I generalizing here...anywhere. Not everything is an argument, and can be taken as such or forced as such.

</div>

Why in the world do you tend to give personal tones to every post. Why the finger pointing at me?? Is this post about my liking..my preferences, is this about Rudra defending or Paro bashing?? No...then why is this about me defending Rudra in various posts. Why in the world do u turn up to question me in every post?? Is this a personal vendetta!! Whatever the topic of the post, it is clearly ignored and you turn up to simply say...you are saying all this coz you love Rudra and Hate Paro...excuse me??
<div>

Now that you are making this personal...go back and check out all my posts from day one..and if you find posts defending and explaining Paro..supporting her...praising her...what the hell will u say then?? Its a challenge that was issued two days back. And as your response is all about degradation...that's all I can say.


Honestly I am not in the mood to get into hostile responses and veiled insulting tones. If you want to talk about the show...well and good...otherwise thanks for your comments.


I am sorry I am not really inclined to go through all your posts again...so challenge not accepted.And what is to talk about characters in this topic...isnt this post about members here, the posts written by them and the trp audience? All real people.You wrote that you asked yourself how would the trp junta feel and that you came to the conclusion that they would have the same reaction as the posters of the instinctive posts here.If that is not assuming and generalizing I dont know what is..look I really dont want to become the member who always
gets personal here.I am not saying that as a PERSON you are always presumptuous or that you always generalize...I am saying that a particular COMMENT of yours generalizes.
I read your post again and I understand it better now I think.Sometimes things that are wrong naturally are justified and that does harm to the show and not good...agreed!At the same time I go round the forum and believe some bit of nitpicking and unnecessary bashing happens too.
So here is hoping that people give their natural views without feeling the need to unnecessarily support a character just because its their fav actor/actress and here is also hoping that people dont nitpick in the name of honesty

First where have I written that writers who explain Paro are all doing so without conviction or understanding. You understand her and you share...that's not a problem and shouldn't be. Similary when someone defends Rudra..the same rules apply.

But when posts crop up repeatedly, complaining about disconnect...don't u think its time for the writers to give it some thought and attention. Or are you going to say that its just an overall lack of understanding for only one character??
And I too am expressing a different opinion, and yes understand other opinions and povs too. As your circle understands Paro, my circle fails to do so consistently.
And in answer to your last statement...my cousins were...when did he accept her as a wife, when was their marriage normal...how can she question him or force him...and why saying good things and then demanding something else. Again...different folks...different strokes. Just presenting another pov here. When the general audience comes out with two such varied and diverse reactions it only points in one direction...the cvs are not able to make a connect with all sections of the audience which explains the TRPS.

I totally agree with your point that if there is a disconnect, the writers need to address that. That's their job and not my problem. If you do not connect to the character, you have every right to voice that.
My only reason for replying to you is when I got the impression that you were calling out my post for being a defensive post for Paro and I was doing something that the writers are supposed to. I got the impression that you thought my post would convey a wrong message to the writers that the audience is loving her characterization. That's not true. My post was my genuine take on Paro. I made a post just voicing my feelings for Paro, not justifying her behavior.
And I appreciate you have understood that as per your reply post😊

I am a Paro fan and I relate to her pain and so automatically gravitate towards Paro related posts, but I am not for or against any circle. I don't want to get in to that mess.
I do not want to bring up what Paro is doing wrong or what Rudra is doing wrong.
That was not the intention of my post.
Anyway, we share different POVs so its ok.
I share mine and you share yours.
And I do respect yours😊
And we are all a big RR family. So yeah😊

My pov, I enjoy the forum because I get to see different views. This serial irrespective of the length of each episode or length in months the serial is aired, it has some good story line, beautiful characterization. I am not interested in many other serials where they discuss what needs to be cooked for lunch or breakfast and some one adds salt or water or spil milk to create domestic tamasha. Now these types of serial have long life , so what? The length r time they are available does it increase my emotional or intellectual need. NO. A big NO. So I do not see them and I notice there is no disscussion of such serilsi in this forum.
Point is enjoy different interpretation as it is available.no body is asking anyone to change their preception it's sharing what they feel and it must be good work on part of CV to create such characters whoes action/inaction calls out different opinions for same action.
This is beauty of literature enjoy as much as you can.
There are writer I mean. Actual literary writers who have reworded the characterization Of Ram to make him villian and Ravan as righteous, same is true for mahabharata's character. So are these writers stupid or have malicious intention to ' gumrah' bholi janta against Ram or Krishna.

No, simple answer no. Then what?

To have their version means they knew and had internalized the character in their way and they share their thoughts they are out there in open for anyone to read - agree disagree with them. They do not write or internalize for readers. Readers do not read them to vote for or againt any version. Same is true for writers here!

Thanks...as you can see respect is at a premium in the forum. And to get respect from members who have different povs than mine...feels good. Once again, I have written in the post and will say it again...I enjoy reading this very same writer's works although they hold a diametrically opposite view than mine. And I have no grouse against them or you, the really intelligent, sensible and sensitive authors who actually feel Paro, but blind devotion, utter obsession riles me to no end. I would never insult a person just cause he/she says something against my favorite...what utter sheer crap!! And the attitude is...some actors are simply worshipped and so certain characters are divine. And this is the attitude that leads to conflict cause its mass mentality, and zero logic. And such posts are dangerous, as they mislead. As I have been repeatedly called pro Rudra, let me put this in writing, no character has my blind faith, I have written against Rudra in the past with pleasure and wont hesitate to share my view if I don't empathize with him. The reason I understand him is cause he is more logical and practical and I am like him..so he is easier to fathom. Again, these are fictional characters, not my personal friends or family, that they should hold my unconditional loyalty. 😆
