I haven't watched the two shows which you mentioned but i have watched the og version of TMD, so i will say they are following the exact storyline. But they are following the actual og storyline for ghum hai ..... idk who is spreading rumours but every remake which is made in Hindi are following exact storyline except few here and there. Regarding pH messing up, i would say today every serial becomes crap after 100 episodes. There is no show where they have not messed the storyline. So that is something we can't do anything.
Leads are not fighting senselessly actually, the leads are here very different. I would suggest you not to watch if you are stuck with prev shows of the pH. This show storyline is different, there is no third angle in leads but rest two other leads.
Baaki it's a show, take it as much as possible in an entertaining way.
Actually it’s just so disappointing that every show where I think it will be good and light hearted turns out to be the same typical negative drama that we seen in every show 😔 Ik I probably shouldn’t expect much since it is itv, however I can’t control my expectations.
About ghum’s storyline, I read very often in the forum that the show is completely deviating from the original, basically creating their own tracks by this point. Was the surrogacy track really there in the original? I thought It was something the makers did to give more screen space to the rl couple.
The reason why I say the leads are fighting senselessly is because there is no real substance to their fight. The characters are different, I agree so arguments are bound to happen, and their first fight was enjoyable. But however, the fights they have afterwards where Angad is basically insulting her for no reason in front of the public is tasteless. Especially because it seems like that treatment is given only to her, since he behaves nicely with everyone else.
Ik I sound like I hate the show rn and you might be questioning why I am even watching the show 😆 but, it gives me entertainment and the chemistry between the actors are good. Just the characters makes my blood boil beyond control at times lol.
