I have a different take on this serial, which is not the same as those expressed by others in this forum.
I find this serial the best shown on Star Plus, and wondered why they put it on afternoon slot at 2 pm. I now know, the majority of viewers prefer those shown on prime slots. I beg to defer with the observation of Star Plus.
I watched all the old episodes on this link
I found the various aspects of movie making are done with exceptional professionalism. Acting, Cinematography, Background Music, Story line. The story moves from a rejected girl child, who has guts, to reach the top. She may use untruths, to gain her ends, but the situation is not of her own making. It tries to show millions of young girls facing similar situations, and is meant to give them a hope. By contrast Akriti has been destroyed by her over possessive father, and this is meant for the modern day fathers, to take note of the consequences of their actions.
The kids among the viewers and all over India fall in the category of Vendant, the brother of Akriti, but they should aspire to be like Daksh, who has succeeded to become a lawyer, though he has a one track view of truthful behavior by not being flexible, he is in a danger of losing on the good aspects of people that surround him.
I hope we will gradually grow to appreciate good stuff. The mindset of the young will mature, and we will live in a scam free India.
