Some fans are confused. The plot or premise of the show was always known. We all knew it was about EMA. We all knew that Kunal & Nandini r the leads & will eventually fall for each other. The title itself is copied frm the AB-Jaya-Rekha classic of the 80s. So then y so much uproar in the forum. Why viewers are furious & making posts aft posts venting out their anger & frustration.
The simple answer EXECUTION...
Every story deserves an audience as long as it is executed & presented well. Personally I welcomed this show. It was a refreshing change from the Saas-Bahu & Naagin-Makki-Chudail crap on Indian TV. I was intrigued. I was interested to see how the CVs handle such a sensitive topic. Silsila was 1 of my fav movies. I liked Arth as well. And though I was unimpressed by KANK it was more to do with the dragging screenplay than the actual plot of EMA. In fact i actually liked Karan Johar for having the courage to have 2 extremely unlikeable characters as leads. Ppl hated the characters of Sharukh & Rani but the director never tried justifying it. He mentioned in all his interviews that it was his intention to show 2 unlikeable characters. It basically means even unlikeable characters do fall in love 😆 In the end despite the betrayal, heart break & emotional upheaval its the characters of Abhishek & Preity who have the last laugh. They both move on & r in a happier place without their whiny, annoying spouses. Abhishek even finds love again.
Coming to the show, the CVs made a major blunder by showing Mauli & Nandini 2 b best friends. There r some boundaries that u never ever cross. Desiring your BFF or brother or sister's BEA is top in that list. Even if they had shown them as friends they went overboard by showing Mauli repeatedly helping Nandini & fighting her battles on behalf of her. This makes Nandini appear absolutely loathsome & obnoxious. Here is a friend who has moved mountains for u & u r actually romancing her husband. How do the CVs expect the viewers to digest this? Are the CVs that dense & stupid.
The show is absolutely cringeworthy only & only due to Nandini. Even Kunal they showed him dilly dallying for days, trying to give himself a pep talk. They showed him at least trying 2 fight his attraction albeit half hearted. But in Nandini's case its absolutely nauseating that she dint even put up a fight. She dint even try. That's where I ve a prob. In almost ALL stories on EMA they show the characters panic, ve second thoughts, fear the consequences. The characters r usually stressed out due to the constant lies & they try to fight their wayward thoughts. The other stories show their inner struggle, the reason y they embarked on this path. Here its almost like Nandini was literally waiting to grab Kunal from Mauli. So it makes all her previous actions suspect. Was Mauli really her friend. Does Nandini ever truly love anyone or is she just plain selfish. Again its k 2 show a selfish, unlikeable character. But the CVs ve made their bed & now they ve lie in it. They made Nandini a betraying, unfaithful, backstabbing cheater, a husband thief. Now they ve to accept the back lash. No point in fans whining about ppl hating Nandini & making angry posts criticizing this character. She is an abominable character & fans must accept that fact. The CVs knew what they were gng to show. The actors knew what they signed up for. Now they must be sportive & accept the criticism which is justified.
