Gul's has new 2 shows are telecasting another one is imli which has also same concept village gal will get married with rich town guy. When gul starts to make new shows all concepts always are same. Before her all shows were based on love story amid arrogant business tycoon & poor chulbul gal now her all shows are based on love story amid poor village gal & landlord.
But why these lady producers can not make love story where female lead is powerful rich business woman!π€
Hey. This post echoes the concerns of almost all the Indian drama viewers.π It is as if the basic framework of all the shows is pretty much the same. The male lead's got to be powerful, dominating and the girl has to be the subservient one. Haven't watched many Indian soaps, but I remember Suman from Ek Duje ke vaste. While I have a certain set of issues with that show as well, the character of the female lead was well-portrayed, at least till a point. She was strong, independent and gave the male lead "takkar." I believe the writers need to lend more depth and strength to the female characters as well, so that for once we don't pity them. They can be strong, without being evil or manipulative, just like girls today are.
