Chemistry between the leads is subjective. One can say that Karan-Rubina share an amazing chemistry but to me, I don't see that spark in them. But even then, people would have watched the show (those who like Karan-Rubina) if the story made sense.
In the case of PV-ENU, nothing makes sense. The characters are so weak, unrealistic and ridiculous that as an audience, I can't relate to them. I absolutely hate Raj and Divya. Raj is a spineless guy who has to man up and treat his wife with respect because even if he doesn't love her, it was his decision to marry Sarita so he should at the very least honour his decision! Divya's character is amongst those characters which I can't stand - the epitome of sacrifice, the "Good One", the mahaan one. Seriously. It's so filmy! If people had issues with Aarti's "mahaanta", I wonder what they have to say about Divya. And I thought Sarita's character was the strongest out of the 3 but now, I am thinking twice about that as well. She should have taken her stand and left Raj if she knew that nothing was going to change, no matter how many years pass by. No communication in 10 years. Puh-leez, what kinda crap is that? And do I even need to talk about how disgusting it is to see Raj's father's mistress roaming around in the house? 🤢
Actors, chemistry, etc, do matter when it comes to TRPs but what matters even more is the story. One can say that PV-ZMD's story was ruined with the excessive screen-time given to Ishita, yes. But the concept and the essence of the show was never lost. Like Saffi has said, the foundation of Punar Vivah - Zindagi Milegi Dobara was so strong that even the occasional glitches couldn't force fans of the show to stop watching it. I don't want to blame anyone but if I had to, then I would hold the channel responsible for the entire mess. The Mittals are wonderful story-tellers, I am sure they would have done justice to this show if they were given the time, and if the channel wasn't breathing down their neck. With the further dip in the TRPs, I don't know what the fans of this show are in for.
Sorry about the length of this post.
