Agree with you Sunara. The love story about a simple village girl and an army officer disappeared some where. Now we are stuck with the same old family drama with new faces.
I don't blame Ashish completely for joining JDJ, I'm sure he would have discussed it with the CVs before taking up a parallel commitment. If they had felt it will hurt their story,they could have discouraged him. But we have seen from ST's past tweets he was on board with the decision.
My problem is not with the hero's absence alone, its with the way the story is progressing. When the Tejawat case ended they could have had Rudra transfered and move with Paro into an army quarters where she is facing situations like an army wife who is left behind when her husband goes off on dangerous missions. I wanted to see Paro explore relationships with women other than family members. I wanted her to develop as a person by getting back to her studies or setting up a small business. If I wanted to watch her be the ideal bahu stuck in the kitchen while her husband do paper work 9 to 5 there are so many more options. This growth will help the TRPs while keeping things interesting. There is another show set in Rajasthan where the female protagonist finishes high school, educates other girls and goes on to become the sarpanch. This show has a loyal fan following with great TRPs.
Even with the family angle they don't have to make Paro deliver long speeches and the others watch in the background. We have an estranged older couple who were potrayed as strong characters who now need Paro to fight for them. We have a childless couple where the husband is finally telling his mother to back off after she almost forced remarriage on him. Where is their voice? If you are making it their story and pulling them don't do it halfway. Let them speak out and not just nod their heads when the female lead faces their challenges. Her greatness is not in just fixing everyone else's problems while ignoring her own life. She is a young, talented woman and there is a world of opportunity even in the small town where she lives. Let her exploit them and let the other adults sort out their own lives. This way even if we have Rudra around occasionally, their story will still move forward with Paro's journey of self discovery.
