And since when Sindoor & holy mantra chanting is a thing in EMA. you smile with the sindoor on your forhead with only one emotion of satisfaction, when an act like this leads to much more complex emotions.

@Arnav
Every case of EMA isn't same, true, but the underlying emotions in all of them are more or less same. Sexually abused victims are wary of getting into any sexual thing because of the trauma. The EMA is more of the emotional bond outside that relationship when there is an abusive relationship at home because emotional support is the thing, people crave for when abused. This show developed almost 0 bond between the divine couple.

Nandini not having guilt was somewhat understood if she didn't know that Kunal was a married man but her not feeling even a milligram of it despite being well aware of the fact is a huge negative for her character.


I agree sindoor and stuffs aren't required, but it's a drama and makers will add some of the stuffs to it, after all none of the shows are potraying total reality, there is lot of drama elements to it for entertainment and we know from day one that it's about EMA, why audience would have been happy if the wife was negative? Why always wife has to be negative to justify the other woman? Nothing can justify EMA, but it's fact which is happening around us, even if we like it or not! So the show is about EMA with drama elements added to it, we have complains with every show, but how many of us stop watching if we are complaining? Honestly I as a viewer, I don't like negativity or the track which doesn't work for me, I stop watching and proabably catch up once in a way to see if the show is entertaining, I used to complain earlier as a fan, but now not anymore, as no matter what we complain, the show is catered to larger audiences and they don't make the drama for some us who discuss/ criticize is what I know! As far as they get the numbers, they just move with it, they add sindoor or stuff since lot of people want to believe that this couple is from god's grace and they have their blessing, simple, so it's added! We can ignore we minus and watch it if we want to or quit!

Truer words never been said any better.

This probably is the first show that got me so riled up especially because of such insensitive portrayal of such sensitive subject. Even I am the one to stop watching the show. And that's one of the reasons why ITV shows despite being content-less run so long because there is atleast some audience.

I didn't expect abuse to be used as the road to the affair.

Yes, I get it that a show about EMA would show EMA scenes, and that can include physical intimacy as well. I have no issues about that if the CVs were more upfront about it in their narrative. But using the abuse angle in the way they did to lead to the sex was in poor taste.

Because people expected maturity from the story, and victim of sexual abuse won't react like nandini is reacting they would be needing counseling to come out of their trauma but instead maate nandini is jumping on bed with her BFF's hubby, without any guilt she's backstabbing her friend who always stood for her and that's the last thing any sexual abuse victim will do.. Kunal and nandini are such character less people, kunal is a spineless cheater and nandini is a backstabber and officially Kunals mistress and that's exactly how these two r coming out

And one question , what did people expect ?? Like they will say jaa nandini jee le apni zindagi with your BFF's hubby 😆 offcourse they were gonna bash these spineless Kunan.. cos no matter what ema will never be accepted

@bold...IKR😆.
And a lot people are watching it for Mauli too... I for one wasnt lookin forward to the fornication of the leads... 😆
or their eyelocks... I am am more invested in Mauli coz it wouldnt have been an ema without heR
Just like some people find Mauli dumb i find K and N people without character...

Even I am watching it for mauli only she's one strong character, I wanna see her journey after she comes to know about this betrayal like how she will handle herself and move on in her life and also how karma hits Kunan and both suffer later on, their so called eyelocks and all seems so boring 🥱

I would like to know what anyone would expect from viewers who are watching Silsila? Praise Nandini and Kunal?
From the promo itself everyone knows it's EMA so personally I wanted to see how the wife deals with the cheaters.
Also is there any special rule that in a show about EMA the viewers should support the cheaters?
When anyone watch a show we all know bad people will be there and good people going to suffer endless still we watch it and bash the bad guys. Same is happening here in this forum. Why it is even being questioned? Anyone asked why Nandini gets sympathy and why Kunan are hailed as divine lovers? So why repulse against EMA is questioned?

It's not Ema but the premise that's faulty ,which sane person will say yes poor Nandini, her husband is such a bad guy so it's Ok for her to have an affair with her best friend's hubby. The story could have been set in so many different ways instead they have a weepy Nandini depending on her bff Mauli for everything and then be completely ok to sleep with Mauli's husband . Kunal who was totally in love with his wife is next min in love with wife's bff.

You're actually not seeing the real reason why people are disgusted by this show, and that is the way this EMA is being portrayed. First of all, they are showing kunal-nandini's affair as true love, as if they're love/ jodi is blessed by god and they are destined to be together.

This aspect is a huge reason for people to be disgusted. If they want to stick to showing EMA in a realistic way, at least refrain from showing the typical indian serial love story tropes of showing signs by god etc.


Secondly, how long have these two actually known each other, been together to actually be in love as opposed to merely strongly infatuated with one another, to justify makers showcasing this affair as genuine love? A mere few days I would say, yet, prior to having met nandini, kunal acted all lovey dovey and true love with mauli, and then the moment he sees nandini dancing in the rain he starts to show attraction to her? Like, W*F? Nothing about the way this EMA is shown is realistic, maybe the only thing being that none of the leads are typical plotting villains such as shown in other serials, but other than that, the portrayal of this story as being true love is beyond unbelievable, and merely comes across as infatuation an lust.

On top of it, none of them have actually shown real guilt and realisation of having betrayed mauli, but obviously these two are in that honeymoon phase of their affair, where everything seems to be beautiful sunshine and roses, due to which they are ignoring the obvious... the massive storm that will come upon the exposing of their affair in front of one and all, especially the heartbreak that they know they will be giving mauli when their betrayal comes to the fore. They are well aware that they are betraying mauli, they know she will be broken when she knows, yet right now they're too busy enjoying each other's company to think about this and even care about mauli's feelings right now.


I can't wait for the truth to come out and for these two culprits of mauli to be bashed left right and centre for their lust story, because mauli did not deserve this. What on earth did mauli do to these two to warrant betrayal from them both? 😡
