As far as leads being "glorified," that comes down to the writing of the show. I just wish they could show everyone in the family as good people and still show interpersonal conflict. I'm not sure if you've seen older shows like "Ek hazaron mein meri behna hai" and "Sasural Genda Phool (season 1)," but they showed it perfectly. Even Yeh Rishta's first season with the OG Akshara and Naitik showed interpersonal conflict so nicely. Without turning any side characters into villains.
I have seen all the 3 shows and I started yrkkh with akshara naitik only ..but ask yourself..is it liking for aroo which is more or dislike for abhira ?
I've said this earlier , I don't find aroo Interesting bec she isn't an angel like abhira , or she is stupidly plotting against abhira etc etc . The basic framework of the character is senseless..as a child I can understand she blamed akshu but isn't she a grown ass woman now , who should focus on her career (as she took so much pains to become e a doctor and brag it to everyone) , or focused on her family, or her sasural, her husband and love. Is jealousy the only dominant emotion that drives her ? I find it odd , much odd compared to akshara ..
Compare her to shefali. She is a career oriented woman , she had conflicts with family and husband but isn't she better than aroo? What is aroos redeeming factor ? Compare her with Neil. He is misguided but deep down he loves abhimanyu.
I see progress in aksharas character which I fail to see in aroo. Akshara got the necessary confidence from abhimanyu which she should have gotten from goenkas. Aroo , after so many ups and downs in life is still the same what she was in epi 1.
If they want to show interpersonal conflict, bring aroo out of this jealous and insecure space . There is no logic to her actions just as mahima doesn't, now... Where in sgp and ehmmbh the actions of any character were illogical?
