I have never been a daily soap person, the only shows that I have ever watched completely are ipkknd, mjht, left right left, saraswatichandra and balh
Ipkknd was regressive too, but I still had expectations that Khushi for once would stand up for herself and give it back to asr, I stopped watching the show during Sheetal track and I started watching it again when Mrs India track started.
Miley jab hum tum was youth show, light romantic love stories of Mayur n sajan, sajan was my favourite, gunjan's development from a shy introvert girl to a successful working women at the end was so progressive to see, a small town girl finds her man in Mumbai who supports her and respects her.
Lrl- women in army, that was new for me.
Saraswatichandra - cute love stories, although not that progressive but this show handled the situation of illigitmacy very well. Danny was the step brother of saras but always wished the best for his brother and saras too loved him like his child although he hated guman who was danny's real mother. Also at the end Danny chose his brother over his own mom because her mom was wrong and saras was right.
Balh - this show handled the situation of older couple getting married late and having babies late very well although I quit the show after the leap.
I started watching swaragini because of Varun Kapoor since I was fascinated by Danny. And eventually I fell in love with swasan. But ever since I have started watching this Show I have a sense of guilt as a young women. This show is regressive and patriarchal. And i don't support this. Ap's role has always been regressive and I hate her to see decked up like a mannequin and saying aee ji aee ji. Sujata although is a out spoken women but has always been a supportive of this patriarchal mental and she utters such regressive non sense sometimes that I literally cringe hearing them. Parineeta well was totally non existent before her sudden magical realization of insecurity, she was also as a women was regressive in handling her insecurities and the message that goes to the society that a woman who can't have children can kill other's children out of jealousy. Dadi is well u all knw is the epitome of hypocrisy and regressiveness. Shomi well after this pregnancy track I find her the biggest hypocrite, I mean u were ready to face the society with an illegitimate child but fear the society's reaction on ur legitimate child? Ragini well has been a confusing character, in the initial episodes she was a shy, introvert girl born n bought up to believe that marriage and having children is her life's sole purpose. Swara came in and introduced her to the world of possibilities and taught her to fight for herself. She took that fight for her love to another level and meaning altogether, where she insulted everyone and held swara responsible for her heartbreak. And the rest is history. She suddenly turned positive and started begging on her knees to lakshay to accept her. Then she tries to commit suicide, and still thinks that whatever she did was for her "love" and unfortunately shomi and swara endorse this. Then she forgives a man who slapped her father in front of so many people and got married to him. Swara well the initial swara was a progressive girl who wanted music in her life. But now who is she? She's a housewife who has totally forgotten about music, I mean when she forgets about sanskar all she thinks about is music as soon as she remembers sanskar she forgets music. Can't the woman remember both and handle both? I mean how many times after real marriage swasan have u seen swara with guitar in mm? Either she in the kitchen or with a tea or water tray or on a slapping spree or giving gyan or doing jasoosgiri and idiotic supernatural shit. She too begged shekhar on her knees, as if having a father is so important.
This pregnancy track was totally the final nail in this coffin.
If this track was even remotely shown positively I would have never taken this decision. But since the cvs decide to kill the baby and move on as if nothing happened. I am not gonna tolerate this shit. I always believed that audience makes the show, we give them trps. That's why stupid shows like ssk, naagin, kavach, kumkum bhagya etc etc etc promote regressiveness, superstition and patriarchy. So I am quiting this show. I would miss my swasan and would always be their fan would follow this forum but won't give trps to such regressive crap. I am sorry Varun Kapoor and Helly shah I love u as swasan but i can't endorse ur show's regressive approach towards society as a responsible citizen.
