Originally posted by: momma1128A bit of a rant - it's long, at times perhaps incoherent, but I was revelling in some awesome ASR moments and then bam! what the Anjali...
All indications were given that this was a love story. I didn't see Anjali lurking in between ASR and Kh in any of the show promos, I did not see Anjali in any promo touting her incredible bond with her brother. I did see her as a side character from day 1 when she came onto the stage with ASR and it was evident that ASR loved his Di and she cared for him immensely, worried about him being HAPPY and letting go of the pain of the past. That has been Anjali from June 6th 2011.
Anjali has always been the unstable Raizada ' not only an insecurity arising from her disability but also from her broken wedding, but even in her bubble she recognized her brother's feelings. She is the one who reached out to La even though the family didn't like her, she called him out on his rude behavior with Khushi, she recognized that he fell in love with her and she was the mature one in the family who put aside his shotgun wedding and welcomed Khushi into the house. If she was shown to remain the one who understood her brother, then I would have oodles of sympathy for what is a plight that can break any woman. Pregnant with your adultering, kidnapping and attempted murdering husband's child, who you pinned your entire self-worth and being on. I am supposed to be crying for this woman. But I ain't.
Anjali has gone off the deep end. I tried for two weeks. For two weeks I said, come on Anu, she is a pathetic creature right now in the midst of an emotional breakdown, she's pregnant, never worked a day in her life, mooches off her bro'wait focus, her husband got kicked out of the house. She's delicate, she deserves the benefit of the doubt. I am supposed to sympathize with her. But no dice. What I see is a woman who shuts everyone out, who goes off to abort her child and kill herself in the process because THE FATHER gets no respect, then comes back and wants to keep baby and have baby look like said father who deceived her and her family for 3 years (sach kya hain nani, somebody just tell her to call the Guptas and Happyji), who tells her brother who saved her life he is of no help to her, who cries at the sight of flowers for her sister in law, who cries at the sight of her brother having alone time with his wife, who cries at the sight of her brother having a moment with his wife, who cries that her brother forgot her after he lets her keep said flowers, hauls her butt to bed, that's in a room, in a house, that had the snake who got the allowance in the Shantivan that ASR built. She is coming off as self absorbed and she is coming off as begrudging her brother's happiness which goes against the essence of this character.
There is no other way to take it. She stood in the living room today and called her brother ASR a liar. How convenient and how unimaginative CVs that you have Khushi maligned by Mami without a single shut up and extreme tepid retort from Nani and then you have Anjali the little delicate flower call her brother a liar, pout, cry at the display of affection for her sister in law and waltz off. How sad was ASR today left alone in the living room with his wife and sister going off in different directions. Why is this injustice visited upon this couple time and time again just when the audience feels that they are due for some time to just love. So ASR goes off in the direction of Anjali (obviously because we have to have equal air time now, he hugged his wife, her screentime quota met, am I being cynical, yes because the story is ridiculous as is Anjali's characterization at the moment). And this is where Anjali and any glimmer of sympathy left and I wanted ASR to pack her off to her Shyam heaven haveli that has been under construction for a year.
She says marriage changed Chotte the day he got married. So why are you whining about it NOW????? Why were you not whining about it when you made Bali in Delhi, why weren't you whining about during Holi, where was this boohoo Chotte why isn't Di numero uno when you made Khushi repair his button?? What has changed between then and now is that Anjali is devastated and lost her husband, which leads me to believe that she now begrudges the time with his wife because CHOTTE IS HAPPY and she is not and wants attention NOW (insert pout and mote mote ansoo). And now, what will she do, try to get back the man her entire household despises and alienate Kh (this is how soch nayi works on SP right). How much more emotionally manipulative can someone get. How much more self centered? CVs this is the reason why the audience cannot relate to her. While she was happy with Shyam, she was all for her brother being in love. Now, she is not. If her issue is that it is Khushi he is happy with, then find a better way to display it because right now, Anjali is no better than any other manipulative saas.
I signed up for a love story. Today I got a couple finally acknowledging and succumbing to each other (Barun and Sanaya thank you for the most awesome 7 mins) and then got lambasted with a saas/bahu drama with Akash showing absolutely no spine and Payal thinking just a spoonful of bhindi makes the ghussa go down. Manorama becoming that "saas" again, insulting the bahu and trying to feed her son a bottle. I use my remote to avoid those shows (yes I know exactly what to do with them thank you!) Add some phantom calls from the character no one wants to see return any time soon and we have a recipe for disaster. The show needs the main lead couple to have some time ' uninterrupted time. Make parallel tracks, but don't do it at the cost of the central story and don't do it while destroying the characters. Today's episode was a stale regressive kitchen drama with a half baked love story stuck in. For shame.(note - I have not seen Dolly's interview with Rangmunch, so don't know what she said, and quite frankly don't have any interest now)

You are so right...the problem lies with the execution! The execution is bipolar...usually at the south end but we do get moments of brilliance. But they are far and too few in between.
Originally posted by: AyeReKhushi👏 👏 👏I watched the first 10 minutes and forwarded the rest of the episode. I heard Sanaya wasn't even shown for the rest of the episode but this is depriving me of seeing Barun too. That's the extent to which Anjali's character annoys me now...I just can't bear to see her on-screen.The vibe of the show is so negative all because of this ONE person. This was supposed to be the high point of this show. TRPs had jumped to 3.4. They could have used that momentum to focus on the love story and I bet it would go over 4.0 easily as that's what the audience has been waiting to see for over a year.Rather, they took a step back by showing inconsistencies in both Arnav and Khushi's behavior just to fit in the Didi Ki Saut storyline. Disgusting. Please remember that it is the lead pair who made this show a superhit. Don't compromise their relationship for one that should be on the sidelines. Today was one of the lowest moments in the show's history.
