Congratulations on butchering the beautiful Love Story u urself created once . 👏
What kind of love story is this if the Hero in question is a spineless wimp and needs redemption from his mistakes all the time in every track? A love story should somewhere be a balance between two individuals? Ishita n Raman r poles apart, now it looks like they dont even deserve each other. It looks to me now as if Raman is a guy with mistakes n this story is just about how he is undoing his mistakes - Mani track was his redemption, Shagun Shadi track resulted in Ruhi custody Drama which was again his mistake, Divorce track again his mistake only, current ongoing track everything he does is a mistake. Y shud a righteous Heroine stay with a person like that?

Why does the Hero n Heroine in question never talk n sort out their differences like any other normal couple? What is the point in procrastinating and mulling over what happened n thinking what is going on in the other person's head when u just can have a TALK n figure out what is going wrong?

How r kids being used in this serial? 12 year old is able to bully adults and works around his way by throwing tantrums. Adults r falling for his trap as he was deprived of TLC. He is spared of his grave crimes coz he is Ghar ka Chirag? 6 year old is made to fight for her mother's rights? Y cant the mother herself speak for her own rights in front of the whole Bhalla clan when they r going wrong?

This is clearly an imbalanced storyline where the Hero comes across as wrong (almost in every track this guy is wrong) n Heroine weak as she is not fighting for her rights on her own.

Bang on post megha
Yhm was about raman ishita ruhi three broken people come together and completer each other and heal each other.
But now yhm is about how female lead is always right and tag as a devi and at the same time she is weak who cant stand up for herself and allow other to do injustice
Male lead can never be right and always goes on guilt trip and redeem his mistake
Kid just love her mother and support her and never there for her father there and gave adult type dialogue
Kid who does planning and and plotting and don't think twice to hurt himself
Family is so blinded in love can't see beyond anything above that

No doubt they will give justification to their action but damage has already done


It's circle of yhm track
Female lead make mistake and justify her action with lecture and male lead also make mistake only to forgive female lead mistake and glorify her character and male lead is no less than villain and female lead is no less than devi and male lead always on guilt trip

I can't see couple in ishra and I can't see family in ishra ruhi where raman mostly look like outsider due to his mistake and guilt trip

Cv created beautiful love story which could have been best love story on tv but for me there is no love story only drama ans in thay drama real raman ishita and ruhi lost

Whole yhm is lost thay freshness and uniqueness lost
To whom should we blame 🥱

Well according to CVs Raman was going wrong in Mani track even before manhandling incident coz he threw bracelet, said I m today whatever because of Shagun.

I have no problems if cvs want to show a self righteous heroine, but Y shud a righteous person put up with such a Bad person like Raman. If Raman is always wrong, y is Ishita still with him. It means Raman will never change n Ishita will keep on bearing torture at hands of Raman all her life?

Word word word👏
And no this isn't a story of redemption too anymore..it's just that the male lead is a jerk. .and a flawed man...who got the gift of a lifetime with a selfless godlike wife...and how she keeps forgiving his 'mistakes' and teaches him lessons of life n love. ..how to bring up children..how to manage family...etc etc...so in future tooo we will have raman making mistake after mistake..and Ishita the savior shielding him...while lecturing him and the world about what they have all learnt from the new mishap🥱

I totally agree with your post! I'm pretty equal in appreciation and understanding of both main characters, but I fail to understand what the CVs are going after right now.
Since October 2014 we've just had a barrage of Raman making large mistakes, feeling guiting, and trying to redeem himself. Are the CVs just not satisfied yet with his redemption or do the TRP audience just love seeing a man in such a pathetic position?

It's more pathetic than anything else because Raman's character sketch has been beautiful - he makes mistakes and lives up to them. But since October his mistakes have become more and more out of hand and really irrational.

Ishita in my mind is still in character because she's never stood up as a wife. Only when it comes to Ruhi will she become an angry young woman. I can understand her insecurities and why she reacts and takes certain actions. In the Mani track she was a little out of character, but if one wanted, they could still justify her actions to a degree.

But in this track - not only is Raman's character being massacred rather abruptly (unlike other tracks where there was a build up) but all the Bhallas are being compromised to show how isolated Ishita has become. Could the CVs not come up with another way to show Ishita's isolate? I mean I could come up with at least 5 dramatic scenarios that would achieve the same effect without turning a 12 yr old into a full fledged criminal with psychopathic tendencies or making the male lead flip flop 24x7.

Truthfully the worst of all this was the guilt track because of it's conclusion. How in heaven's name did the CVs think an airport confrontation + a pathetic get well soon (aka mock Raman session) would justify the emotional trauma Raman went through. Even a small conversation between him and anyone who empathized with his feelings at attempted to rationalize with him would have justified the airport confrontation.

Khair - it's the CV's story and if they love to see Raman always accept his mistakes and Ishita sort of accept her, let them go for it.

I just hope they realize the damage they are doing to the purity of Raman & Ishita's love story because never have I before seen such a large portion audience advocating the main leads split up for good...truly unique thinking!

You know. I was penning the next update to Meherbaan and the next part had Raman telling Ishita's elder cousin brother on how he or Ishita's family back in Chennai had no rights to consider her to be on of their own after they left her to the wolves - hurt, emotionally abused, broken and killing her soul day by day. And then I do some Physics and check the forum after 24 days. And I come across this article of Ishita being protected by Ruhi. And the irony in the fact that YHM Raman is doing the very same that the Meherbaan Raman is talking against. He's breaking her. Piece by piece.

How a kid of six or seven stands up for her mother's rights and fights for them. And it pissed me off. Just yesterday I was plotting on how to kill Raman (I have issues and I'm angsty, issues and not the point) and now I have successfully skipped a long bath and gone for a quick shower because all I want to do at the moment is break the couple apart. Because our lead who is supposed to be this ruthless, calculative, shrewd businessman in reality is an spineless asshole who doesn't know his priorities in life. He's still influenced by Shagun and Aditya after telling himself over and over that he won't let them do that. And history repeats itself. We are back to the accident track only this time worse. Raman in the accident track knew what he was standing up for, albeit wrong he wasn't morally at fault. But this. This is pathetic. Doesn't he have mouth to say no. Like no Shagun, you can't live with us. Or, no Shagun our time is over. Or, no Shagun - you aren't my wife. Or Aditya, Ishita is my wife and I expect you to respect her. Or, no Shagun I will not participate in this ritual with you. Instead, he sits there like a spineless douchebag. It takes two to tango. If Ishita brought Shagun home. Raman could have said no. It's his house. If Ishita did something, Raman has the rights to chastise her. Tell her what he feels. But she does it for benefit and he sees how much it hurts her, he knows how much it hurts her and he selfishly looks away. Makes me wonder, if it indeed is love or if he just want to secure the fact that Ishita will always be with him. She craves love, wrap her in a delusion and be done with it. After all, Mani made him realise how much he loved her. If he loves how does he find himself stuck between his two wives. The one he claims to love unconditionally and the other who he claims to have gotten over. And now when he speaks of Shagun, his words spin a different tale - 'It wasn't her fault, she was innocent. Ashok trapped her..' Dafaq? Ashok was her priority the and she chose him. Does Raman love Ishita or is he trying to form an illusion of a perfect marriage with Ishita that is now shattering with Aditya and Shagun showing up. I don't know. And I'm not bashing Raman. I'm not. I'm just pointing out whatever I notice.


Coming to the other part. I'm just gonna repost my reply from another thread.

Honestly. I couldn't care less. The show has lost its charm. Not even this could possibly save it for me.
It's pathetic on how one could shun a full blown member for the sake of a 12 year child who I admit needs love but in his case doesn't deserve it. How is Raman any different from Subbu? Doling out injustice and threatening if not taking away her basic rights as the daughter-in-law and the a wake up call from a four year old any justification to this? It's frustrating, nerve wrecking and heart wrenching.

One track. Not even Mani or Raman's ruthless behaviors and borderline forcing himself could ruin the show for me but this one track did. There were so many ways the track could have gone about. So many ways without ruining the essence of IshRa and Ruhi-Ishita. But to me it just fails. I'm sorry, but this isn't the show I fell in love with. Ishita is family. Their family. If they need a four year old to dole out justice and common sense then they aren't family but a bunch of hypocrites.


If Ruhi stands up for her Ishima and fights for her rights against outsiders - that deserves accolades. But if she does the same against their own 'family' then there's a desperate need d for a reality check and relationship re evaluation.


I'm sorry. Meherbaan makes me feel that Ishita - Ruhi - Raman are one big family. This morning when I had to mention the custody case in an author note. I stared at the screen for a good minute or two wondering what the f**k I was on about. Despite talking about Raman and Ishita getting together for Raman's daughter formally mentioning the case seemed so foreign at that particular moment. But with show. It has lost the charm. Even Ishita Ruhi scenes off late seem so forced. And the IshRa forced proximity and merciless butchering of characters for TRP. UGH.
