I have been reading the reactions to episodes over the past few weeks and I am sorry to say but there is so much negativity on this forum!I may be unpopular and have no friends and get hate PMs but I had to let this out. Its as if something or the other has to be bashed in the name of constructive criticism.

The CVs are bashed because apparently they aren't doing their job well and numerous people on this forum can make a better show than them and gain higher TRPs!Well go ahead: form a PH, write the story, screenplay, dialogue, sell the show to a channel, find sponsors, hire SaRun keep audiences happy, garner a TRP of higher than 2.7, let your show cross the 'Light & Lamp' TRPs and then say: see this is how you do it! Until then do not mindlessly bash each and every episode. My bones of contention are with the following:

1)Arnav's apology was pathetic - erm what did you want?arnav begging on his knees?arnav crying?would the same people not say --oh ASR is ruined?he would neevr apologise in this manner?

2)Bashing Barun's walking, hugging, pecking, whatever!erm why?He walks just fine!He hugs fine too!and how intense do the kisses need to be?He does what he can within his comfort zone!This is IPKKND not Jism 2!And i don't mean to compare but a certain scene on indian tv with a veteran actor and actress where there was a liplock seemed so cold and fake!I'd rather the teasing and the suggestive hints!this is indian TV if I wanted something else I'd watch Gossip Girl!Its just disheartening when fans bash an actor for such trivial things!

3)the amount of personal vitriolic slander towards DB!I have my views on what I think of the increased Anjali air time too but that doesnt mean I bash DB every chance i get!what is bashing her going to do?I agree I too watch this show for arshi and I would regardless of side characters (except NK - i loowwweee NK--I want me a NK of my own😆😆)

4)Every soap has to undergo dramatic sequences; even medical dramas have miscarriages btw!!!

Why can't everyone just calm down and give the show a chance!Why would someone destroy their own show?

Anyways rant over!

Great that you have the guts to make this post. Just by looking at who has made a post, i do not even bother opening it because there is a percentage of members that are not happy unless they are whining and complaining about something.

I watch the show because I am interested. I will stop when my interest level is down compared to my time investment. But what i have to call out is the same people making the same kind of boring posts routinely.

Well this isnt the same forum anymore!I used to like coming here because there was positivity but now its turned into quite the opposite!
Why is it that the haters are allowed to say anything they please in the name of criticism whereas if the fans ask that the bashing cease then they are blind fans and they need to think reasonably!
I don't understand this!

I mean like i mentioned I too have issues with the screen space a certain actress is getting but I dont make that the topic du jour every day!

Lets just say I am starting to understand the reasoning behind a certain infamous comment: dekhna hai to dekho!

I totally agree that the bashing needs to stop for every episode but today's episode crossed a line... and there is a lot of anger...

Where the CV's really need to pull up their socks is that you are talking about a business magnate, harvard returned etc... but who does not keep track of what that creep is up to, does not take a second look at the bills that had information etc etc... i can go on and on and that to me is inconsistent with his character !!!!!!

ARSHI have been carrying this show ably on their shoulders and the increased airtime to DB is a annoyance since everyone knows she coerced the PH into giving in... therefore maybe changing the story a little away from the main leads!!!

no body is saying all 20 mins shd be arshi ... but it cant be 5 mins arshi also isnt it??????????????????

What exactly is the meaning of POSITIVITY for you??? people agreeing with you or praising whatever junk is being doled out???

Stop the crap of telling people to go write and get TRPs over 2.7 -- those morons get paid to do what they are doing. It is not some god damn charity. They are doing a pretty f**ked up job of it so people are screaming.

If you think it is a great thing to show torture of a pregnant woman which is followed by a miscarriage in late term at almost 8 months, your moral standards are beyond repair.

It is nothing great to be a SILENT reader or FAN doesnt make you any better than the people writing every single day. WHAT THEY SHOWED TODAY would have led to the channel getting sued in the US along with some serious FINANCIAL consequences for the channel.

LIKE I SAID before -- this is equivalent to selling cigarettes to children and a class action law suit is possible under that premise.

So, stop lecturing people who are expressing their views -- we are not here to worship at the IPK shrine or TEMPLE.

But why would they get sued? Because they showed the death of a baby? But they did not glorify the death rather they actually brought out the ugliness of this act. And it did anger all of us. We all hated it from the very depth of our hearts. But dear, let's hate the evil, let's hate the character who brought this about, but not the writers and the PH.

The story belongs to the creators and we may agre or disagree with it, but let us criticise not abused.
They are paid to do this and they are trying to do a sincere job of this. Sometimes a story needs to take a certain path that does not agree with our sensibilities, then we need to hang in or walk away for a while, or just rant ! All fine, but don't insult their creativity and don't belittle their work, that's all.

very well said dear. A suitable reply to the post by shopaholicny.. Not wearing a baby bump and the miscarriage and not wanting a child may be the conditions put forth by the actor DB besides bargaining for more screen space. She would have demanded that she should be in each and every screen in all the episodes.

In the entirety of my post did I say torturing a pregnant woman is a good thing?Did I say a miscarriage at 8 months is great?All I said was other shows have miscarriages too!I said even medical dramas show this!Miscarriages happen in reality too! You have no right to question my moral standards on the basis of an assumption that I am an IPK phangirl!

As for people making their own show and getting TRPs--again please understand what I said--I said go be CVs and make a show--yes the CVs get paid but so would those people who took over wouldn't they!

you have NO RIGHT to lecture me based on what you assume I am saying!!Nor do you have any right to hurl abuses at me!!
