Sultan's Harem for his Sexy Sirens~ CC#20 *IO* - Page 118

Then again, there's the other crap sells to the audience in India as well.

But I feel like a lot of times the makers don't really have the gumption or don't bother. Or they are held back by the long running daily format which doesn't allow them to venture out all that much. Because what can you do? In this way, as crap and BS as Ekta's bullshit is, I do gotta give it to her for ignoring the online and IF fanbase.  She separates couples, has them consummate with others (although a with PR its just the male), make them have kids with others, etc etc.

She has some truly effed up stuff, and people compare it to American Soaps but no. American Soaps are nothing like Ekta's Bullshit crap.

But still, I do give it to her for not bothering with the online fans.

Chiks, I think I'll be honest and say I agree with you, but it's only because Shikha isn't too pretty, if she was very pretty I would have liked Neeraj and her to have something romantic, despite the situation with Marnav being stolen from Shikha and Sameer threw her off the cliff. 😆

Yes I was talking about the same to someone recently and she said the reason they are changing the storyline, bringing in twist after twist and the original storyline is lost along the way is because they are ambitious and are chasing after TRP, and yes they all try the Saas Bahu stuff but it doesn't always work because I feel even the TRP aunties aren't completely stupid, they have got to see okay this I will swallow and carry on watching as the girl has no other viable alternative she has to take the abuse from her saas/husband as her family where she comes from she was in the same boat, so at least where she is if she works hard there and makes them see her qualities they will ignore she is illiterate and appreciate her and later on she can also study and become literate, but in some other stories like. So the TRP audiences aren't completely clueless to accept this life for a girl because she is married she has to stay fits all scenarios and all situations like the makers of these shows try to feed down their throats. I think makers need to show women do walk out if their parents are willing to take them back (if her family are understanding, no way would a girl just stay at her sasural) similarly if a girl has the means to provide for herself as a career as a superstar like Madhu had (in MEIEJ I felt the makers did intend a separation but delayed too much to get to it, as they were trying to show her doing everything possible to save her marriage then give up and walk out, the audience lost patience and switched the channel). 

So the saas bahu injection into every show out there sometimes doesn't fit.  

I loved KYIH in the initial stage. I think it probably works because it was away from the family set up. I mean we still saw his family on the other side, but still we saw a modern setting as well, as well as Simi who was so refreshing.

And Rajveer, he was such a great guy. And the Rajveer/Simi were just so great. I wish they could've developed the story more in the Singapore part--meaning they could've made their relationship develop slowly and all...but they had to have Simi suddenly declaring "I love you" his deciding "oh, I love her too" but he leaves. I completely understand his leaving, but I didn't like how ILU part was rushed. First of all, I think ILU is overused in these shows. When they like someone, it's ILU. 

But then Simi decides to chase after him. Okay, even that is okay I guess since they had the father voice the legit reasons why she shouldn't. 

But then it was all family drama afterwards. Sometimes I tune in here and there, just to catch Rajveer/Simi. Because even then they have just something. Also...a lot of the cast there...they somehow take the crazy, ridiculous, regressive crap and somehow make it into somewhat of a light comedy sometimes.
