I agree with you that it is about package. I think people's opinion on Laksh sadly might be the same. with Ragini and Swara it is mixed bag. My mom and aunts and her friends are all in their 60s. They like Ragini's drama and were not too happy with Helly for the longest (devar bhabhi scenes, pushing laksh to be with ragini but ignoring sanskar, doubting sanskar etc). they aren't too bothered about the romance as you have said as well. But it is fair what you have said, if you and your mom don't connect with Ragini. you don't. simple. it is a personal preference. just like we have people having different favs. i have been watching it for swasan but i do realise that ragini brings out the best in them many a times and i like that.
Now this is just my take but if ragini was replaceable, RS would have done it. she wouldnt have been willing to change the plot and be willing to turn ragini positive otherwise. she knows what character is working. remember she has replaced many characters with other actors otherwise. SNS and SSK are prime examples of that.
The aim of the post though was to raise a question do you really think that the show can go on perpetually interesting without going SNS or SSK way only with swasan... if ragini as a character is completely gone? Secondly, do we need to malign the actors and the people here and be intolerant to others opinions on the forum just because they don't match ours? that is what is happening right now. which i feel is not okay.
Even I enjoyed Ragini a lot earlier but then CVs instead of showing her character growth have made it simply take a U turn for turning it positive and that is not only hard to swallow but also hard to relate to- hence the lack of interest.
She could have been turned positive in a 1000 different and interesting ways. But no we will get Ragini ne sab kuch pyaar ke liye kiya which makes you switch off the TV so that the minds of your children are not corrupted.
Now regarding people who confuse between the actors and the characters - the lesser said the better.🤢 In my opinion they seriously need help. How can one make aspersions on actors basis roles they are playing? It would be like lynching the child who plays Ravan in the school play.
Regarding tolerance see we all have to be tolerant of each others opinions. A forum is meant for a healthy discussion. But people here are turning into a street fight and a slanging match. 🤢
But there is one more factor that should be considered - if one belongs to a minority fan group there would always be twenty posts arguing against his one post - it should not be labeled harassment. Its natural. One should take it in stride. 😊
