This is what someone was referring to when they coined the term "Dimag ki Dahi"...

They start a show swearing by a love story and the main characters between whom the eternal love story is planned...
They come up with a back ground score loaded with hints of how eternal their love story is...
Then they rush through the love story.. saying TRP comes only when they are in love!!
Then they wake up saying ab kya... we don't have anything more to show.. they are happy.. in love.. Now if we go the ever after way then the show has to end!!

So bring in the classic, over used and abused "kill a lead" plot!!
So the initially marketing money was a waste.. the money spent on the back ground score... lyrics...was a waste..
Cause the eternal love story wasnt eternal anymore...
The song will change to... "Duji duji baar baliye.. Dil gaya Haar Baliye'

Am ok with second chance... but why overdo the story of two characters in the beginning!!

Now the audience waits wondering... whether both Paro and Rudra will die? if Paro will die and Rudra will back to his barking self till he meets his second change? If its a love story of the second generation with creeping look alikes that will haunt the rest of the family members?

I am frustrated with myself for really wasting my time.. for a second time!! Why do stories have to take drastic twits and turns... and if they do.. why build them up as eternal.. hatke story-lines in the first place?
Dont the makers understand.. its a game of numbers and stories may have to be modified if the numbers are not got.. so just keep the room open for such instances!!

Sumer bana feels cheated that he didnt get to shine with his tractor wala dil...
Mohini sa feels cheated that she didnt get to win at at least one mind game
Mala feels cheated that she didnt get a reconciliation and remarriage with Dilshar
Aman sa feels cheated that he was always reduced to a phone conversation and never got to hae his own love story

Over and above all.. I feel cheated that I wasnt given what I was promised. Instead am expected to adapt to constant changes!!!
Makers... I want my money back!! And I promise to use the age old punishment dished by school teachers... "I will never watch another show on Indian Tv with such investment of time and emotion again" - a hundred times!!

I want to give them a few slaps, they can keep my money - they are money-obsessed anyway

Its all about TRPs and TRPs are all about money

This is what happens when u don't plan the story properly, don't give enough time for the tracks to play out naturally... all the tracks that have been introduced had immense potential in them but only god knows why they rushed through all of them? Nobody knows what happened to Tejawat? Laila and Tejawat could have teamed up, mohini coming up with ways to create trouble in paradise, basically anything and everything which could have these two against the world... how could we forget Mein, Tu Hamesha and then watch rudra someone else or the entirely gross and sickening concept of their son growing up into rudra and he romancing his mother look alike I mean W*F, the thought of this concept is so disturbing and cringing... at home u pay homage to your mother's pic and then at night just have erotic dreams abt exactly the same face but a different person eww, ST and all the creatives sboukd be admitted in to a mental asylum for coming up with such a crass track that it should have a new word in the dictionary to describe this creativity of theirs.

Amen to that!!! I started watching RR when big boss ended. Now I guess I will go back to watching BB. I won't have place in my life for 2 TV programs and will need to pick one.
Too bad that a wonderful union of fabulous story and fantastic actors has been wasted so callously by the channel and the PH.

My experience of a soap has not been good. So I guess I will stick to reality shows from here on out... If not arnab goswami is always there to entertain us with irrelevant discussions!!!!

From a disappointed viewer...

after the experience i had watching my first ever beloved daily soap and what they planned to do there i learnt to hold back and refused to get that attached again, just enjoyed the acting and the romance. but who am i kidding, of course there is always some emotional attachment to the characters and this total disregard for what they sold us upsets me too 😔 i casually watched st's other two shows and saw how he completely ruined those love stories so i did wonder what he would do to rr, but seriously did not expect the total dimag ki dahi it looks like we r getting - want my money back too!
