Bloody Hell I watched RR as it was advertised as an intense love story between 2 protagonists with opposing ideology and their journey of love I signed on for the story of Rudra and Paro not Rudra Paro and Pam Right now RR looks like it is the journey of a widower with a child and his second chance of finding love again This was not the original premise of RR and I feel right royally cheated If this is what the PH had all along been planning on showing then they should have had the guts to state the plot right at the outset Then I as a viewer had a choice to see or not Now I feel so disgusted over spending time watching a serial that was never true to the foundation

Pray tell how will a new modern Avatar of SI reel in the numbers I am sure the core audience will not accept a new love even if is SI essaying the role as the soulmate bit has been carved into the viewers thinking in stone I for one cannot digest seeing him running after the new her convincing her she is his wife nor do I want to see the new gal feeling sorry for him and trying to convert him to human again been there done that and I am not in a mood for part deux If this is their idea of intensity once again then they really have no clue over the USP of their product

I will also not accept this new avatar of SI if they show it as reincarnate of Paro just to shut us up if it is a 5 year leap logic takes a huge beating even in a soap serial as skewered as RR

If they show dialogues of Paro asking him to move on and find happiness again I am done with this serial Even the prospect of SI and AS again does not entice me I was attracted to the story and characters and I feel RR is now terribly tainted and I am so angry that they have made a mockery of me their viewer No amount of pleas and restraint from the creatives will change my mind If they had left her death scene nebulous I would have stuck on but showing her dead means they have decided to change the entire plot of RR to Rudra finding love again and if it means Rudra falling in love again I am so done with RR as this was not what it was about and please I am not bashing the actors I have the wisdom to know the difference

I really wish they had not shoved the soul mate song down our throats all the time and knowing their callousness probably they will use this when Rudra meets Pam

and for those who are unfamiliar with the term bait and switch is a business term and loosely it means enticing customers by advertising one product and then getting them to buy another If they are gambling on the fan base of both actors to stick on despite any drivel shown by them then good luck and hope it pays them dividends for this sensible viewer is not that gullible and has other fish to fry

FLG and right royally pissed one at that 😡



Swathi Sweetie missed you 😭 Jaadoo ki jaappi le le abhi 🤗

As I wrote in Priya's thread, CVs may ape the story of K3G where we will be shown Rudra 's son reading each letter written by Paro telling her story.. the 5 year old prodigal will go looking for a bride for his father of sorrows and will stumble upon a London return 😆

CVs are off their rockers.. I knew that when they started with their Jaipur trip.. since then it has been a slippery slope... none of their plots are fully thought out.. they all seem contrived and half baked.. many of the tracks had great potential e.g. Maasa track, Shantanu, Laila track ... they could have done much more with it...

To me it seems that the writers have lost their rudder and are desperately trying to get their naiya paar by hook or by crook.. so we get to see the crook part of it.. 😃

Ah... this is the second time I have felt cheated... I am sure they would not spend much time showing a mourning Rudra... within a week he will be back on his feet and prancing around with the new Pam/Durga or Sati...

I wish they had stuck to their original script even if TRPs were lower at least they would have had continuing viewership and satisfied audience... I am not saying writers are all to blame here the channel and the TRP system are the culprits coupled with extra curricular activities of the cast. they were all telling on the quality of the output...

I actually give it only 1 day

CVs seem anxious to wrap this show up now

ST is casting for a new show - he is looking for 18-24 year olds. I think he has written off Rangrasiya in his mind.

I honestly prefer they end the show than make a mockery of it. With the Channel who long ago gave up on the show & now producer to moving on to other projects I would not want Sanaya to waste her time & energy in reviving a dead horse. That girl was so sick & yet on sets doing her job. These people dont need such commitment.

first let me thank you for this post...i agree with every word !!!
i have been hooked to this show from day one...i live in India and i am trp viewer... no matter what i switch on my tv sharp at 9.30 pm to watch RR...i have always wished good for this show because it has a stellar cast n an amazing technical team!!i understand this industry thrives on trp, so as a viewer i accepted when the show deviated from the original story... till mahashivratri RR was beyond brilliance ...screenplay,editing,bg music,direction,dialogues everything was awesome...RR was visual delight for first four months...but later they started coming up with ridiculous tracks ( eg laddoo track, laila track)!!side characters were given more screen space...the show was supposed to be parud centric!

from day one the makers showed the divine hotlink, shiv parvati ideology,main mati ka putla hoon tune pukki jaann, adha -adhura!!!so this 360 degree turn is crap...rudra falling for look alike again...the look alike of paro becomes rudra's rangrasiya...how can the makers do this after showing divine connection between them in every bit of their journey!!!if this was some ordinary love story i would have accepted it n never freaked out so much!!!

after love confession they have not even shown one track which was parudcentric! Atleast they could have given a one week good pregnancy track for the viewers to cherish the last moments of parud! but no...why this rush?i feel cheated...if this leap is essential bring it on...but why kill paro??...well i am not teaching them how to do their job...but i can think of 10 ways of how this story can grow... amnesia,paro kidnapping,desert, rudra captivated by terrorist,special missions,kids...even paro coming back in a new avataar independent n strong is a welcome...!!!if they are so keen on killing paro why don't they kill rudra as well????!!!!!!!


i believed the makers because they had penned a beautiful story...i never wanted RR to get axed because i have seen the caliber of the cast n team...well i love AS n SI...only to have a daily dose of SI n As i cannot watch what the makers have decided to show!!!there are dozens of videos of As n SI on youtube..i can manage with that!!!!

m very sad!!!m very upset!!!

Awww love you too Mozart 🤗 and thanks for liking my posts as well Sadly we never got to interact much as I was not that regular on IF unlike another time another forum Hopefully we will come across a soap that piques both our interest enough to want to come on IF and share real soon of course there can always be a miracle and Pam could turn out to be Paro but the basic essence of RR has been terribly tampered with and I doubt no matter how an amazing twist it be it can never replace the Paro Rudra story I wish I had known this at the beginning that ST was capable of heinous acts such as the literal butchering of leads I might not have been that interested in RR but then again I would not have met fantastic folks like Sabs and you who I never knew before so taking heart from that

My desi soap viewing has always been very minimal basically just 1 and I can count on my fingers the number of soaps I watched till the end hell no need of fingers just a finger would do but this year I surprised myself when I found the 11pm show also quite interesting and now if the current RR track is new love then back to just 1
When I think of RR the words what could have been only come to mind
Till our next meeting take care and god bless you 🤗

And that would be the second time I've given so much to a show, only to have its makers rip my heart into pieces. HOW is this even a plausible storyline? Who comes up with this nonsense!? It could have still had an impact if this was left as a tragic ending to a beautiful love story with one or both of the protagonists dying and the show ending with a small glimpse of a future, but THIS. Nuh-uh.

Why do I do this to myself. Must never invest emotionally again. Bewakoof ladki me.


Gosh any consolation I think most of us are sailing in the same boat Fool me once shame on them fool me twice shame on me I think the writers are lacking creativity and talent and are coming up with all kinds of rubbish that are aimed at pissing of viewers rather than attracting So many tracks and stories left unexplored and no wonder many left the show in frustration 😡

When have they ever been logical FLS, I have given up on these brainless writers, producers and the all elusive TRP.

I wish they hadn't worry about the ratings and gone with the original story. I am totally pissed off.

They have butchered my heroine all for the sake of 0.00001 rise in TRP. 😭😆


Erika sweetheart truthfully in another forum although I wanted them together forever I did root for a change for a couple of reasons one the ML himself wanted to leave on personal grounds and the fanbase was starting to get on my nerves with their madness and mayhem that they unleashed on the forum For the sake of peace of mind and wanting the fanatics out I welcomed change but here it is different no one is leaving the serial is barely half a year old and now with this move they have also managed to anger the loyal core who watched the serial not for SI or AS but for Rudra and Paro and the story and I agree grave injustice has been done to Paro for that tiny fraction which I doubt will rise Paro is one half of the essence and soul of RR in the Rudra Paro love story and now it is just a superficial story of a widower finding another woman to love albeit she looks the same which makes it even more shallow This is not RR but a very pale imitation of what I once saw as RR

I am also harboring a tiny bit but given the callous treatment meted out I doubt
