Sony is one of those channels whose shows can be amazing finite series', if they allow it. Just plan a story from beginning to an end, tell the story and then end it. However, everything depends on ratings. if they are good then they either continue it forever or end it when it is already dead.

Honestly speaking, I hardly criticize hindi shows when they are good. I agree that MMKD can improve on some things, but it is still better than countless of other shows on air right now. I can no longer tolerate abusive "hot" heroes or the nonsense that are being shown on gul khan's shows. for a picky viewer like me, MMKD is a breath of fresh.

I don't expect groundbreaking storytelling, only an uncomplicated plot that is easy and breezy I'm satisfied with the way the show is going, it is simple and fun.

Nevertheless, I agree that the story needs more of a focus and a clear direction which it lacks. Not sure what will become of the lal ji and mishri subplots. it is like cv's are sidelining those until they are ready to bring more drama. Just like the dharmi track that is waiting around the corner.

Aru and mukhi are still few of the best characters i've seen on telly.



hmmm.. i know its like asking too much from a hindi show.. 😆 bt tho i never considered story as parameter for Moh Moh when i started on this show.. i jst watched it for ArMu chemistry..

bt at certain point u still need a story to look forward to or talk to on the forum..

I feel thy have reached a point where thy cannot rely on ArMu chemistry alone..

all the unfinished tracks need to b closed down and a new chapter in ArMu relationship needs to b written from here on.

With bhang track, thy really messed up ArMu intimacy thing going forward to SR.. now lets c how thy tackle this further in this week's epis..

also.. i really cant tolerate Dharmi.. i hope thy don't bring her back.. its better to have Lalji-Rami track again or even have Aru highlight the Arjan-Uma's abusive rship.. bt i think tht track too has been scrapped like Arjan eyeing Aru track.. 😆

I don't think thy r bringing back mishri.. agar ayegi to rakhi pe pata chal jayega.. if Mishri is coming back or not.. bt Rakhi is on 7th were as Janmastmi is on 15th .. thrs no news of Rakhi celebration in Moh Moh so i guess.. she is not coming back.. 😳

/// I don't expect groundbreaking storytelling, only an uncomplicated plot that is easy and breezy I'm satisfied with the way the show is going, it is simple and fun.///

This is what I also think and want a show to be like. I don't want tension...too much seriousness... I love playful eagerness to watch what the characters will do/ act/react to the next states of affairs as the way they have been portrayed.

There are several plots regarding all the characters to be revealed ...so I am relying and kept my faith to the team YMMKD.

u said it all Vio!

kuch aur add nahi karna..as u said channel ki galti hai..TRP race mein rakhne ke liye they pressurize the makers to change the tracks and do something which will attract TRP aunties..meko yeh samajh nahi ata...why cant a show stick to its main plot and deliver something logical and realistic without any trp pressure?🤔

the other show in rival channel main kabhi kabhi repeats dekhleti thi...I like the female lead sirf issi liye..I dont find any logic in that show..haan whatever u said is right phir bhi..the only good thing is every other character has its own track and own story..the cinematography is beautiful.

I just hope after building toilets and janmashthmi games some good tracks pop up..there must be a track on Dharmi and Mishri..abhi ke liye tracks r built only to bring ArMU closer aur shayad SR bhi ho..usske baad other story will follow.

SP has more viewership..agar humare show SP pe hota it would have been in TRP topper list I bet.



due to commercial interest its difficult to run a show on low TRPs..

waise u don't know what goes into the heads of channel heads..

anyways here.. I hope they bring back the old flavour.. where inspite of some high drama.. at least ArMu chemistry was realistic.. now thy need to gradually progress towards developing physical intimacy..its but natural..

strange thing is thy have confessed and yet thy r not progressing towards the touchy wouchy things.. cmon thodi naughty masti to banti hai..

I hope ye recent SBAS video showcases tht.. 😳

Hi Vio

Love what you said- there is definitely a grain of truth in that. It was all going so well at the in-lawsplace, the confession, the aftermath, the chance pe dance and the re unite was really well done.

Then I think there was a moment when 'whoever is in charge' thought OMG we have already done confession and now all audience will be waiting for SR- but in order to keep us hanging they decided to divert and chuck in a 'topical toilet saga' since a well know star ka philam is everywhere raising ths issue :))) And then there were rumours of another show replacing to add to our woes and theirs perhaps.

Admittedly there are a lot of loose ends I would love to see sorted before NEW plots are chucked in willy nilly ;))) Sanvi's backstory and baby kwestions, Sajan Arjan ka hisab be chukana hai by Uma, and more importantly for me WHERE the hell has BHUKKAD LAALJI gone? Like (to quote our lead) Chutta Saand ke tarah he was let loose on edge of Amboli - is he coming back to continue his thali saga with Ramiben? And also WHEN will mukhi actually twig that all his priya mahan Phamily are mostly theifs- gundis and fraudsters- I cant wait to see that realisation played by our gorgeous Mukhi and Aru being his rock (as he has been for her) sigh...

Lets hope after they read your post they will think think and action!

Jane :))

hey, another great post from you & sadly the point which I have been dreading for past few days...the show is not moving anywhere. Now from what I read here, there might be a new entry. Seriously, for what ? The crux of the story was about two individuals from a different background coming together & how they accept each other. We can understand a show is not always about romance but there is something missing in Armu's relationship recently. Somewhere it got rushed and all gone for a toss. Now I am confused what the writers are trying to achieve with Armu scenes...every time it comes back to square one. Sigh! When will we ever get good content on Indian TV which doesn't get crushed by TRP :(
Reporters was good as it was finite. Still can't understand why they can't stick to a finite series and keep it neat rather than changing scripts halfway and spoiling all the fun. I always feel bad for the actors on these shows..

Yaar they have done that with such fine and superb yrf shows... Powder... Shaadi.com mahiway... Khottey sikkay.. bt thy didn't click...

Now I think thy wer way ahead of it's time.. if they bring back now thy wud definitely click..👍🏼



Vi!

Powder!! What an amazing show it was. And Rishta.com was one of my most favourite ones. I rarely could identify with FLs of any show except, Isha Mirchandani (Shruti Seth). And Rohan Mehra was probably the only ML whom I could like in spite of being a rascal. He was a loveable rascal. :-D

While I did like the taking of Mahi Way, I never did understood or identify with her. But it was fun for sure.

I did try to watch a couple of episodes of Beyadh. I have to be honest, I do not like Kushal Punjabi or Jennifer Winget (I never saw the other lady before and her screeching voice put me off instantly). It was watched in the hope of something interesting and the hope vanished fast.

I am a sucker for dark stuff. But Beyadh was trying to be dark (and plot holes were too many). I sometimes wonder if they do not have a budget for a continuity director.

Now coming back to your original point, I agree with the part of story being a bit hey ware. Here I will agree with what Jane said. It seem the new track is channel trying to ride on the existing buzz around the new film. (For all we know the cast of the film might appear to make a promotion of their film and so the track is being shown. It is not unheard of.)

I did like the strong characterization which was shown in the initial episodes. I did feel some of it was lost in a few recent episodes. I still feel Mukhi ji is going strong. (I really am curious who was the one who chalked this one character.) Aru IS a bit lost.

As for the story, it is said that all stories are about a journey. You leave from a point (may it be a real place or journey in life), and reach another and that becomes a story.

(There is also one more quite which says all stories are either a stranger coming to a new place or a person leaving for a strange place.) We had both in this case. But so far none of it is used very well.

I have to say initial episodes did show some good writing both in terms of characters and some interesting plot lines. (Dialogues were good too, a lot of them still are)

But the focus is a bit lost. I am not sure what is the reason. And I am definitely not going to give up on this unless they kill the characters too. But so far characters have not gone down the drain.

I agree, Aru has suddenly lost her brains. (It seems water tank ke paani me beh gaye) :-D

When I was learning script writing, it was a course for film script writing but our teacher (who was a veteran script writer), kept one day for how to write for documentary films and one for how to write for Hindi serials. (It was not expected that he teaches us that).

He told us, whatever I taught you about character development, story arcs, plot point, remember all that and then flush it down the toilet along with your logic and self respect and then write a soap. :-D

(I heard things have changed a lot for the industry since 2006 but I still hear a few horror stories from a few industry friends)
