Hi, yes yes I totally get that the focus was the love story and it wasn't a sitcom but what I mean is that when the characters were utilised, they were utilised in a way that didn't tap the potential of their role in Arnav and Khushi's life, nor the actors own personal strength and talent. Like the bubbly track was very annoying and didn't help us understand Akash and Payal as much. I think the lead characters were three, Arnav Khushi and Anjali since the show's previous title was didi ki Saut but I think one of the problems the show had was that instead of focusing on the plots' strength, the PH and channel would scummed to giving Arnav Khushi moments over the characters story.
Bold part. IPK had many tentative titles. The first glimpse on SBS of the ramp shoot the title was Vaidehi where Khushi's name was Vaidehi because they said Sanaya is playing Vaidehi. Vaidehi is another name of Maa Sita and Anjali even said Sita when Khushi came to train Lavanya.
Then there was Arnav ki Khushi then Didi Ki Saut means Khushi. So though Khushi the FL was common in every title it was still a love story and every promo was about them and people signed up for that.
I think You mean they changed the concept and story before it aired since they focussed on the leads from the beginning. It was Arnav Khushi's chemistry that got ratings but Anjali was always there. If anything they cheated the audiences by promoting a love story and when it was time for Arnav's redemption came or their love growing they served us Anjali's drama for 6 weeks almost. It put me off from watching IPK. I wasn't online on the forum but I used to watch Arshi scenes online.
I mean I remember how crazy the forum was going hen during Arnav's kidnapping track we were getting lot more flashbacks even though the Mami and Khushi track was pretty good. After all, the Akshay and Deepali quit the show because of creative differences about their characters as
I do agree with you that maybe Payal and Akash weren't a parallel couple but they were very important to Arnav and Khushi and we barely got any Arnav Payal and Khushi scenes. We got like two or three Khushi Akash and Arnav scenes that too during the wedding. I think there was more to be explored lol. It's all done and dusted though so we can only lament.
The writing was sloppy be it during the kidnap or post that.
Even Jashn was promoted as Arnav Khushi 3 yrs later and they dished out epi almost 7 out of 8 epis without Khushi.
We can't even blame the PH for Jashn they weren't involved and the writers had a free hand and they still failed to live up to what was promised.
That's why I don't want any continuation of IPK. No point watching something where the leads don't get scenes together.
