Very interesting topic.

You are absolutely right anyone can help you. It doesn't have to be your lover all the time. I think Maya and Saanjh's friendship could be really interesting to watch but I think nothing like this will happen and Maya will feel insecure with Saanjh as Arjun's best friend. 😕

I think Maya is just like any other boss. She is focused on her work and she wants the same from all her employes. She is a nice person but just a little too strict which is not good for the environment at office. So I think that's why Arjun is trying to act cool. Knowing that such people actually exist. Some people have talent but can't go far because of their egos and narcissism. Some people like to be the boss not have a boss. I am one of them. 😆 So I understand him. But what I am not liking is that Kushal is not up to the mark for the role. 😕 All the scenes look exaggerated.

I was so happy to see a powerful, dominant female shown in Indian TV who's selfmade ans not living on her father's money (I suppose as to what I saw) and is not only being prepared go be a good bahu in her in-laws

And that's what caught my intention

Honestly, all other scenes annoyed me. Though I find Saanjh's family so cute and lovely, I was enjoying Maya and will watch the show not to see another love story on Indian TV but to see Maya's character development and the unlyering of her character which I really hope CVs handle well because I know once a show focuses on trps, it's never getting a good plot or not handling the plot well and the writing becomes all boring and stupid

I want CVs to handle Maya's past with care and unfold it in a good manner and I really really hope they won't drag everything for trps and the eternity of the show

I won't expect much but I hope they won't neglect Maya's layered character and change it drastically to a negative or highly positive one because they will focus too much on their love story and love triangle which I am not at all interested in🥱

And am very well aware about the enemity of women in Indian TV, that's one of the reasons I don't watch Indian shows

IPK and Beyhadh are exceptions

Btw, am also a huge Merlin fan 🤗 the memories and tears are back again seeing your dp 😭

Ah, well, I could go on and on about Ma-anjh's wasted potential, but it's sadly not gonna change the plot of the show.

As for Maya's office working environment, it differs from place to place. Every workplace has a different feel to it. The employee can choose to work where they want. If they do not have a lot of options, well, they just have to compromise. It's the way of the world. I'm not particularly fond of people who purposely disrupt the structure of a workplace just to suit their needs. Not to mention that he is in absolutely no position to do so. She is his boss, not the other way round. He instigated violence at her workplace. He misplaced a whole line of costumes. He trapped her in a lift. What gives him the right to think he can "get back at her" for firing him. She didn't fire him for an unreasonable thing. She fired him because he damn well deserved to be fired for misbehaving and breaking the rules on the 2nd day of his work. Yes, he may be a talented photographer but he is certainly not worth the trouble. I understand that there are some people who are not too fond of being ordered around. But then they should not choose to work in such controlled environments in the first place. They can look for a company that has a more flexible working environment or try some entrepreneurial venture. What Arjun is doing is purely out of spite and no matter what I cannot condone his behaviour.

Character assassination is an age-old ritual in indian telly and I won't be surprised if it were to happen to Maya as well. Although I am holding out a little hope cause they were able to create such a gripping character in the first place.

Childhood abuse by a parent is a very sensitive topic, and most shows never handle it correctly. Even if they do show it, they never show its psychological effects, which mostly stick with a person till their adulthood. Like I said, it's a very tentative topic but they have done a very good job of showing it so far. I can only hope they stick to it.

And yay another Merlin fan *high-five* Morgana Pendragon is my one true love. And Mergana is my OTP5ever.

The bold line - I meant interest, not intention 😆 bloody autocorrect

Well, on first line I've never even seen any such topic in Indian shows and if, then those kids become killers, are villains or whatever but defenitely they have no psychological after effects as per to Indian writers

I feel the psychological condition of characters is not taken setiously at all in India, be it any kind of abuse, depression, stress, disorders and of course, postpartum depression

Am so happy to see any Merlin fan here in I-F *high five back*

1. Merlin 2. Arthur 3. Morgana 😆

God, I cried so much at the last episode when Arthur died and. That was my second time. First time I cried when Lancelot died second time, his shade acrually and Merlin made him have a proper funeral
