Inconsistent and comprised story writing and characters-DT NT Pg7

Originally posted by: ankitasen

Ishita's character sketch is compromised, no doubt about it. But as far as Subbu is concerned, I find it natural. She's long forgotten Subbu. She was very happy to get engaged to Prateek and she wanted to share true husband-wife relationship with him. She obviously didn't want to have a loveless marriage with Prateek. Only this incident is enough to indicate she has moved on long ago. She's hurt because she wouldn't be able to bear a child. It's actually us ,the viewers, thought Subbu still was a factor but she clearly stated he's out of her system completely. We like this Subbu factor just to give a balance with Raman's turbulent past.

I have to say that many ppl have been gushing about writing in recent episodes how deep and brilliant it is but unfortunately I don't agree

I believe writing and characters are seriously compromised

Now lets look at subbu situation

It has been believed till now ishita is sensitive and still hurt over subbu

And it is not that so far she has indicated that she is over him

But mani has been repeatedly hitting below the belt and bringing up subbu again and again

But ishita just keeps on smiling and laughing and not a hint of emotion as if cracked a joke

Now isn't that serious compromise on character

And she keeps on behaving like a start struck teenager everytime she meets mani

Wasn't she supposed to be mature and level headed character

ishita is human
its totally fine and normal to behave ott with a very old long lost school best friend
she is so happy and may be feeling like a kid its absolutely perfect
and subbu is past
he is out of her system
if subbu is no more also she wont feel a thing
so I disagree with u

But do you think she really has moved on

Many times in conversation with Raman she has said that it is not easy to forget hurt n pain subbu have him

Aaah dude ... ur one disgruntled customer ...

Well lets c .. the first time Ishita spoke about getting over Subbu . its in the episode where she convinces Tandon to Let Neel & Trisha get engaged .. her words ..

I also lost my first love ... & it took me a long time to get over that first love

Note she says .. GET OVER ..

in the next sentence she says ... Raman has not yet gotten over his first love .. so she was very clear where she stood ..

Next scene ... when she speaks to Raman about Subbu .. she cudnt have put it more equivocally about the fact that she is over Subbu . she says that man is OUT OF ME ..

now i know ur a man .. so let me explain this as a woman .. when a woman says .. i HAVE TAKEN THIS PERSON OUT OF ME .. it means .. i am over that person .. this person has no sway over any of my emotions . whether happy or sad .. one becomes indifferent to that person .. it means that chapter of the life is OVER ...

Now the writer has dedicated a 2 very important & LONG scenes to Ishita getting over her past .. for a character who has NO ACTUAL PHYSICAL PLAY in the story .. but as a mythical past .. i think its a scene to many ...

Now about .. Ishita gushing around Mani ... whoa dude .. have u ever met a school friend after years & years ... girls are exactly like this .. u rediscover ur youth .. a time when u giggled instead of smiled .. a time when u gushed instead of clenched ur words .. a time when u talked a mile instead of thot before uttering a single word ..

This is what Ishita is rediscovering .. she is rediscovering her youth .. & any viewer who has ever reconnected with his / her past friends specially school kinds would be able to identify with it ...

Just a kostin .. since i am one of the people to gush over "layered writing" .. did u by any chance wonder what is layered writing ... ? lemme know maybe i cud help throw light on it ..

lemme try helping u here what is layered writing in reference to what u have written about Ishita being "mature & level headed" well heres a woman who is clearly over the moon to meet a best friend since childhood ...she is gushing giggling et all .. just like a young girl ..

the next scene they show this same woman single handedly handle all the rituals of her household .. rituals she has no clue about ..

the next scene they show this woman talking to her husband about an issue pertaining to his ex .. which could potentially impact their 2 kids ...

Thats called layered characterisation ... this is a complete woman . she is an everyday woman .. one who wears many faces .. she is fun when the occasion demands ..she is responsible when responsibility is on her shoulders & she is the PERFECT PARTNER when the need arises ...
