I couldn't even get myself to watch today's episode because I anticipated what a torture-fest it would be for anyone who has loved Toshi & Raman. Also - warning, I'm just ranting - so like the CVs, my words may be lacking logic...
I just don't get why the CVs love the extremes. Does this kind of episode really tug at the TRP junta? I read elsewhere that the TRP aunties will eat up this kind of drama because the main female lead is being oppressed and they love watching the main female lead overcome such crap. I would rather watch a mature story that doesn't always bounce from one over-the-top scenarios to the next, which is what YHM was like when I started watching.
The main issue - where's the dang logic? Why couldn't they put a little bit more effort in crafting the scenario so it didn't seem absolutely ridiculous? In the present scenario, Ishita is totally non culpable and Raman, despite knowing the realities (i.e. Ishita was at work), blasted at her. Like really? In real life emotions do carry you away, but not to the degree that you forget everything. W*H. If they showed a little bit more realism (I mean like an inch), the audience could at least give Raman the benefit of the doubt. However, the situation they created here is just stupid.
Truthfully - I just blame the CVs for royally messing with the characters. Now I foresee is another track where Raman makes giant mistakes and then spends episodes feeling guilty and trying to make up for it. Where's the originality in that? We had the accident track and all it's majboori and the Mani track and it's subsequent guilt track. Where is the guy who wanted to leave Ishita with Mani so she could be free from his issues (Simi/Param, Adi, Ashok/Shagun)? So much for character growth.
The Raman we are seeing now is not the RKB we saw at the beginning of the show. Neither is it the majboor baap we saw during the accident track. Before Raman was a man whose actions spoke louder than anything. He would taunt Ishita but then silently sacrifice a position for her. Now all we are seeing a judgemental, quick to react, and selfish man.
The CVs gave us wonderful romantic scenes leading up to this point and now slowly, they are undoing every promise Raman made. If I react based off just this episode, Raman is all talk and no action. Clever.
The way this track is now shaping up, they are just going to instill more hatred in Adi towards the entire Bhalla family because if/when Raman "gives" them up - Adi will have become even more warped because he tasted success and then it was ripped away. If Raman cuts the cord in reaction to Ishita leaving, all Adi will perceive is that because Ishita did some "drama" and now his dad is ditching him again. Again, clever CVs - at the end of the track, they will likely just keep things at status quo in terms of Adi.
Arrey, hum kaha se kaha pahuch gaya? All I can see is drama for the sake of drama. Hopefully the CVs get what they want out of this track - TRPs. 😡
At least we will get to see Ishita stand up for her rights in this track. For the first time in a while, my heart truly and completely goes out to her character. It was hard for me to completely connect with her after bringing Param home without consulting anyone before and continuing to go to Shagun's wedding festivities despite all the insult she faced. Maybe that was the CVs point all along - create a scenario so many can go back to actually feeling for and relating to Ishita's character. But they accomplished this at the expense of Raman's character. #blah 🤢
I love both Puttar and his missus dearly and do hope there is justice done in mending their relationship!
As I end my rant...Thank you, Gan, for letting us have place to rant and hope for a better YHM. One thing I love about the people who come to your threads is that even if we hated an episode or a character, they remain positive and respectful! ❤️
