@smrth - any Danny in the original? Did Guman have any children with LN, and can you share anything more about them?

And I like your POV, that PMS has removed any moral grounds for Saras and Kumud to not be together finally.

Anyway in those times widow remarriage was not socially accepted, so the ending was it was, both in the book and in the movie!

But having made the show contemporary in setting, wouldn't Kumud's refusal to be with Saras in the end be anyway not needed, PMS or not?

Arshi, original 'alert'. Don't start me.😆

Ok. In the book; Dhan Nandan, only step brother's name mentioned two three times. He never comes on pages. Gumaan had slyly averted SC's marriage proposals. But when she got her son engaged first, SC's Dadi went on rampage. Taunted LN for neglecting 'orphaned' son and secured better bride from him- RN prime minister VC's Kumud...😃

Now a mild shock, Dhan Nandan dies ( not mentioned how). Gumaan turns genuinely motherly towards SC. She dotes on her step 'son' and his bride thereafter...😲

...but this is SLB tale.😆

smrth, have u read the original novel? how do u know the story?

I would think that even showing Kumud married to another man would be pretty disastrous. Could we hope for a separation without a Pramad? Wonder how they could make that work?

Every distancing between characters so far (VC-LN) and (Saras-Kumud, over the PMS) has been tempestuous, unconvincing and easily tided over in the next episode with the expert help of a)Dugba or b) Guniyal. If the CV's want to separate Saras-Kumud on a longer-term basis, after showing the width and depth of their connection, "it" would need to be in a completely different league.

Edited to say- re Sunny-Kusum, I feel the CV's are keeping these two hanging for lack of time-space. there're only so many strings they can play at a time.😆

u r rt! but do not know why i am feeling something negative about the show..like others i am not worried about the separation track..in fact i want the story to be close to the original novel..and not be drastically changed..but, i am bit concerned about the shortage of time the team has to write and execute, which is resulting in missing out details and half baked scenes..lack of connectivity..important characters being changed or disappearing abruptly..the only positive energy i am getting from is gautam, that actor never looks tired or lack of enthusiasm..jenny looks tired sometimes and not interested at times..the other character that is outshining everyone is that of kumari..for which i feel positive about danny kumari sequence..these two will rock! sunny is another good character, but being under utilized, kusum has same expressions all the time, again a beauty being under utilized..dugba and gunyal are consistent in their acting and portraying their characters well..VC's character has lost its charm after it got changed..now its more of a time pass, hence getting less screen space..i hope that the show gets back on track and i also hope that the new director brings some more romance and freshness in the show!

"Major part of the story happens there (and yes sadism in full force). So how would SLB avoid it? That wud be non ' Saraswatichandra' in total. In my opinion."

i completely agree with u, the actual story starts when kumud gets married to pramad, and that is when the real love of saras and kumud id put to test..now without this twist the story of the novel will be derailed and it will not be an adaptation..many people will not be able to digest the fact that the show is not following the actual story..i think if the separation track is well executed it will be a treat to watch..i in fact enjoyed saras kumud romance more when they had not seen each other..and now they will be separate physically but will live in each other's heart..muqammal mohabbat ki adhoori dastaan!

Would you prefer some contents in a post above edited out?

Edit done.😊will be more careful, putting 'original' alert...if at all. Thanks for pointing out.😊

@all

We do not post spoilers here. What smrth has been sharing on our requests are glimpses from

The ofiginal work from GMT. these do not count asspoilers as we do not know whether SLB will

Go down that route or not. These discussions are for a better appreciation of the show as is and

Not as spoliers for the future tracks . So I dont think any editing from smrth is required.

All those posting spoilers can post them with alert spolier, or better still resist the temptation to post them here

No offence but this what I feel

Sorry Arshiji and Smrthji,

I did not particularly mean crispy bytes or Samarthji's post, meant the whole forum in itself.

I do enjoy Samarthji's analysis and contribution alot, without which I wouldn't have been able to enjoy the show as much as I do now. Apologies for offending Samarthji.

Sorry if it sounded rude. Didnt mean to . Just wanted to clarify that we too avoid spoliers and feel that they

Interfere with the enjoyment oc the show. I am with you on that
