Dear Viewer,
Thank you for reaching out to Star.
From your email it is clear that our show - Yeh Hai Mohabbatein is close to your heart. It is really helpful to receive feedback from keen viewers like you, who have a close eye on the story line and the various characters in a show.
To elaborate on our point of view on the concerns raised by you, we would like to share that Pihu's custody battle is not only a battle between Surrogate Mother v/s Biological Parents, but it is based on the circumstances under which Shagun became Pihu's mother. As you are an avid viewer, you must be aware that this situation in the past was not normal and Ishita had to leave her family. Additionally, Shagun not only gave birth to Pihu, but she also took care of her for 7 years, in absence of Ishita. Therefore Pihu grew up believing that Shagun is her mother and is choosing Shagun over Ishita like any other child who is in a similar situation . Any show as a whole, comprises of various aspects and the change in the projection of its characters and their roles are subjective to numerous factors. However, it should be viewed purely as a fictional depiction of the writer's vision and imagination. These are just twist and turns which make the story interesting and we would urge you to continue watching Raman and Ishita's journey.
Also, be assured that there is adequate screen space given to various characters in the show; it is as per the storyline and need of the current track high points however the plot is largely centered around Ishita and Raman.
Having said that, we have shared your feedback with the team working on this show.
We hope to have your continued support and patronage.

Good Morning..
Once I was a subscriber of Starplus and an ardent fan of the show called
YHM. The purity of YHM touched my heart and decided to subscribe Starplus
and was a subscriber until you introduced surrogacy. The way the surrogacy
was handled by channel and creative didn't convince my conscience and I
discontinued Starplus subscription and watching YHM. But kept in touch with
story from time to time.
I am not going to ask the way you handled all the sensitive issues such as
infertility, infidelity, surrogacy, child abuse, child labour, sexual
harassment, child manipulations and it's psychological impacts, acid/
chemical attack, alcoholism, irresponsible parenting, bomb threat,
terrorist attack and not to talk about the twisted law, medicine and
corruption and ignoring girl education Aka Ruhi staying home and not
attending school, abuse by husband in the name of love, kidnapping, murder
plotting, suicide, blackmail, and husband through his abusive words driving
his wife to commit suicide, custody to surrogate mother etc. very
insensitively in the name of creativity without any proper closure. This is
your story and you tell the way you want it.. fair enough..
And my question is regarding Raman's love for Ishita as the story is
promoted as.. is this love story of Raman and Ishita or love story of Raman
and Shagun?
looks like marriage definitions are also wrong as far as Raman and Ishita
are concerned where he has no trust, respect or love for Ishita but he is
still showing the abundant trust, respect and hence love to Shagun.. so to
me Raman is still stuck in his love and marriage with Shagun and Ishita
means nothing but a punching bag for him.
But still I wanted to ask what is Ishita to Raman and Bhallas as I watched
a snippet of Raman and Bhallaji conversation.. here are my thoughts;
I watched Mr. Bhalla and Raman conversation and it felt like they both have
forgotten or to be precise erased Ishita not only from their Lives, but in
memory also. It felt really weird that almost 15 years after Shaun's
betrayal no one is talking about the betrayal but make it so casual that
when Shagun left Raman how he wAs devastated due to his love for her.
It makes it clear to me that For Raman only Shagun and their 3 kids matter
and for Bhallas Raman and his love for Shagun and her importance in the
family as she is asli ma who gave them 3 kids and that too one GKC. So her
pictures hang on the wall and they remember her and feel for her. And
Ishita hoLds no importance nor place or value neither in Raman's nor in
Bhallas life as there is nothing like kids tieing her back to the family.
Nice..
I always thought Raman's love is always conditional and I'm not sure when
his feelings for Ishita has completely evaporated.. because he brought
Ishita home for Ruhi and he kept her for his punching bag.. even now his
loss of Pihu is totally blamed on Ishita and Mani while he and Shagun are
responsible for separating a mother from her child.
So all in all it made me believe that this is story of Raman and SHagun who
are deeply in love with each other while they are having living with or
married to different persons.
Ishita was in for filling void in Raman's life when the void is filled..
bam surrogacy brings the eternal lovely couple closer again..
The story is hitting new lows each day.. and Raman Bhalla who is known as
Ishita's husband died just before leap. The person we are seeing now is a
selfish, self centered, foul mouthed, coward and abusive MCP who only
cares and thinks about himself and if any his first love Shagun..
Way to go..
One word shame on Bhallas and Raman for forgetting all the good Ishita done
for the family and making it a home and bringing love and peace to Raman
life and who brought his kids Closer to him and saved and protected them at
the cost of her life and at the cost of her unborn child's life. Ishita
deserves better.
I await your response.
