Indian tv was good in past when they made shows like Hasrateein it was also based on EMA but they handled it with maturity.There story was also from pov of EMA couple pov and wife of involved person was also not negetive but but treatment show was given was quiet different.Infact in that show the husband of sabi main protagonist was also positive character.They showed in that show sabi never got respect after she got into EMA and in the last also her partner lost his memory and her wife took him back and sabi was left alone to deal with life mess alone.The way they showed EMA was quiet different and never romanticized it.Still that show got lot of blacklash at that time too but it was popular also.They handled it very maturely.Shows do effect real ppl very badly.Ppl here don't realise that it do hv deep impact on ppl .They relate themselves to characters and here they are trying to show that it's ok to hv ema because it is destined the concerned couple will come together and lead happy life.In reality no one can lead happy life by destroying someone .The worst character of this show is kunal .Nandini till now hv not done anything wrong but i can't watch kunal and nandini scenes becoz i feel very uncomfortable while watching them so i hv decided not to continue with show.


@bold, that is usually how women in EMA end up losing everything that they have, receiving all the backlash, even though the man is equally guilty.. It happens in real life as well as reel.. The woman is always pointed fingers at unfortunately. In a way Silsila still has a chance to show something different if they show Kunal in such situation at the end 😈 Jokes apart I don't want Mouli to go back to Kunal at the end because once a relationship is ruined, it can never be the same again. Nandini, frankly I don't know what I want for her because we haven't seen her feelings yet.. But she better make an independent life for herself, free from all baggage of the past!!

By romanticization I meant the BGM they are playing when they show kunal and nandini in one frame .And also they are trying to potray them as destiny couple .Every third person mistaking them couple from pandit to lift vali aunty .They don't know how cringy it is to watch 4 neutral audience. I don't hv problem if they play bgm which fits their situation like they used in hasratein title track they used for EMA couple .Here that deewana deewana plays it looks so cringeworthy.You will not understand as you think I m one basher so let it go dear .Trps are proof of what home audience is liking and what not .I hv stopped watching the show so after this post i will not comment on the show or its story or characters.


@bold
I think that it's a common mistake people make when they see a man and a woman of similar age. My mother and maternal uncle usually have to go together for various works & they are mistaken to be married but they of course aren't uncomfortable with that & laugh it out after clarifying that they are siblings.

But here makers make them uncomfortable. BGM & symbolism is an attempt to justify it in my opinion. Deewana Deewna makes it look like Kunal's obsession with Nandini like a single man have with another single woman.

Nah, they have not justified EMA yet, that'e very true. A lot depends on how they take it further and what they show at the end.. But my problem is also with the way they are trying to romanticize it with BG music and trying to portray it like something that was destined to happen, right now. Like what you wrote in the other thread, maybe the writers are confused and don't know whether to keep it realistic or take a clinched route for the sake of ratings 😕


Which is what I am trying to say as well Rashmi. They have a loving and caring Mouli who has done no wrong to her husband and is yet going to be betrayed by her friend and husband. They have written a Mouli in this show to show us the dark side of EMA and how it affects people as nice and caring as her too. If they had to justify it they wouldnt need a Mouli in the first place. Yes they do play music in the background for Kunan but I feel its because they are trying to show their feelings for each other as natural rather than making it all out and out black and negative. They are trying to show it from every person's perspective without making anyone a villain here. They are probably trying to say people who fall out of love arent necessarily bad people and sometimes its just the circumstances that lead to these things. I know the music can be avoided but I guess that's the boon and bane both of creative liberty. That is probably the writer's vision of how her characters will be in agiven situation. And yes when you see these symbolisms you do feel maybe the writers are doing it for the TRP audiences who usually like OTT vermillion flying and maala falling stuff and I don't really blame them because everyone wants their show to survive and cater to what will appeal to the audiences. Also just because the makers are trying to show them as being destined together doesn't mean that they will justify the affair in the end and say hey its okay to do this and all of you must try this and that it wont affect the wife in any way.We must wait for the aftermath of the affair and how that plays out before judging the show in my opinion.Its too early to say they will justify it and they probably wont going by how guilty K and N are already. The makers know what they are doing i guess .

I too want kunal to end up alone .Mauli and nandini both deserve better.I want nandini to realise her mistake and go away both from kunal and mauli.For mauli i want as you said make independent life 4 herself.

B4 silsila i don't know who Aditi is. But know shakthi & dd and like them too. Even feel why they choose aditi for shakthi. But now I love that character mouli and her portrayal too. Mouli is strong though innocent too. Bcoz she trust closed one blindly. Help them without expectation. Here in hotel malhotra's have to face the wrath of rajdeep, Other side kunan comfort & explore Their feelings with each other. Rajdeep is ri8, 1day mouli will regret for her decision(even i don't want mouli nandini's bond breaks).

TM@ I've always loved reading your posts in fact it's only a one or two members posts which I look forward to read in this forum, one among them was yours. You always echo the neutral viewers thoughts. As a viewer, I'm not a fan of either of the actors. But still my loyalties and support is only for Mauli. The poor woman is too good and takes all the pain to save her friend and what she gets back? Her own husband's betrayal?
I'm not gonna talk about Nandini, coz her feelings aren't as prominently glorified as Kunal 's and she hasn't become obsessive of him yet.


But Kunal, gosh that guy is disgusting to the core. Never watched this show much except for the first few episodes and recently on and off that too for Mauli ane Nandini friendship and to see how they're gonna bring the ema angle .But they disappointed big time. Will surely miss your posts.

Totally agree with u.
I just started watching this show last Sunday. The reason was just Drashti

And again I agree that now I love Mauli more.

And I have many issues with the story, some scenes are just bizzare!

Firstly there was no explanation as to how Kunal had feelings for nandini, I mean he just saw her dance in rain one day and... Yeah! Forget it.

Then that temple Baba thing... Was so eww!!!

Yes trying to portray wrong as right, for once they could've had a better story line (high hopes!)

But I love the other characters including deeda n Kunal's mom.
They are Lovely people.
