A week in and I think I will quit soon - and not only because of that nonsense promo about sudden change of track to pyaar and nafrat in the daftar 🥱Couple of things which are getting on my nerves (there are more but I do not want to sound whiney):1) Aditya's voice is not Harshad's own voice in some scenes...it sounds so weird and like it's been copy pasted later on the scene. Idk how to explain it but it just sounds so odd and it has made me disconnect from so many of his scenes - especially the emotional ones!I think Harshad is very good at voice modulation. The scene, the dialogue makes him change his voice too accordingly. And when the editing isnt good, it transition between one dialogue and another, one angle shot and another, feels makes a little disconnect to the viewers. I haven't felt it much in this show, but i know this from Humsafars.2) Jennifer is arguably the best actress on hindi TV but man her crying face does nothing for me. Idk if it's just because she has been crying in every damn episode so far (which makes sense I know cause she lost her husband, but it's still annoying), but her emotional scenes are starting to seem bland now. It's like all Zoya's doing is wearing anarkalis, chanting 'Yash! Yash!' and making that crying face.3) This is off of point 2) but Zoya's character grates on my nerves. Personally seems unrealistic to me. I know this is just the start and as their journey continues she will (hopefully) change but I'm someone who connects at least a little with a character at the start, and starts rooting for him/her. Here I am not rooting for either one of them.On a superficial level, this show seems nice like it has great cinematography and good aesthetics but I can't connect to it on a deeper level, neither to the characters, nor to the show or the lead couple (tho they have great chemistry!).This is not a bashing post, I hope I didn't cause any offense. I'm happy a lot of people are enjoying the show, this post is just a shout out in case there are others like me who were really looking forward to the show and are disappointed? And what has disappointed them and why?P.S. I'll still watch for another week but am sick of ghissa pitta love/hate office tracks in serials so if it's done no different to the 1000 others, I'll bid this show adieu.

I know this is just the start and as their journey continues she will (hopefully) change but I'm someone who connects at least a little with a character at the start, and starts rooting for him/her. Here I am not rooting for either one of them.Zoya is her daddy's lil princess who is not at all exposed to anything in life. I think the only Big/ Independent thing she ever did in life was to fall in love with Yash, go against her parents' wishes and marry him.A very good friend of mine is a lot like that. She has always been sheltered from everything, her family was very rich, she had 3 elder bhaiyyas and she was really the princess for her parents. She never went anywhere alone, never did anything on her own, she had a driver waiting the whole time she was in college and she was sent hot food for her during lunch. In engineering! 😲 She was very sweet and only loving, she didn't know the basic mean/bad things in life. She was a very loyal friend, very studious, well behaved, cultured, beautiful, everything was just ideal in her. When she went to a computer course, She fell easily for a guy, loved him deeply and unconditionally, and then went against her parents' wishes and got married to him. He was studying B.Sc(comp), was from a middle class family, didn't look great, was mostly above average at everything. Not sure how and why she loved him, all she used to say was that he loved her a lot and was a very good person. My friend looks a little like Alia bhatt and a little like Sanaya Irani, so she had a lot of boys in college falling for her but you never know what makes someone fall in love with someone. To each their own😊. Though her parents didn't agree happily, they just couldn't disown her or remain angry with her for long time.She is happy now(A biiig #TOUCHWOOD), but I am actually trying to say that there are such people, who've known only good in life, they are kind, they extremely sensitive, are only polite, they are with the purest of pure hearts, who wouldn't know anything bad in life and when such a person is suddenly is put face-to-face with the death of the only man she's ever loved, and the whole world around thinks that he has been cheating on her, her own family wants her to forget her only love like a bad dream, her in-laws blame her for the husband's misery, unhappiness and death... that is a lot that came too all of a sudden. In her heart, all she can remember or feel is only the happiness she shared with him, only the love, only the laughter, smiles, hugs and warmth. And adding to all this, there is this unknown man who keeps forcing her to think logically about the circumstances of the accident, the proofs, the logic, and all this is not helping her much. She just cannot understand or agree to what he says, it is painful to hear, she just cannot hear anything bad about Yash. Not because she is just dumb, she just cannot think of her husband like that, in a bad way when her heart tells her that Yash cannot do this to her, she just trusts him completely, she has known only happiness with him. So, All she could do was break down, cry and try to hold on to any small thing that she could still have/save of her husband. Remember when she says to Mahi, "Bas Kuch hi waqt ki baat hai...Iske baad koi Kabr, koi Mazhar nahin hai, jahan hum Yash se mil sakenge😭 ..."The girl is facing such insults from Mahi and her mother, facing possible humiliation from her dad(She went against their decision), she is stepping way out of safety-zone by coming to a new city on a plane, and most of all she is fighting her own weaknesses, her own logic and thinking capacities, just so that she can cherish Yash's memories, trust her inner voice and heart than the thousand voices yelling around her all strongly against her heart... She didn't know that she could just ask Mahi to shut up, and rightfully take Yash. She'd leagally have the first right over anything Yash, his body, remains, his items and just everything. Also, She could just ask Adi to mind his language and stop bothering her, but she just wouldn't know to do it. All she had in mind was Yash, Yash and only Yash. But sadly, could she be oblivious to her own husbands' pain, his unhappiness...that thought just shook her and she couldn't get it off her brain. She didn't doubt even for a second if Yash loved her or not, but she didnt know if Mahi's allegations were correct? [that she had taken all the Haqs of being Yash's wife but didnt cater to the Farzs of being his wife]... And that troubled her. Adding to that Adi saying that instead answering to her in-laws, instead of finding the truth about Yash's financial losses or unhappiness, Is she just running away?And I think now that she has got god's ishara, she is going to find out about what was going on in Yash's life in Mumbai, his business, his financials, and on this journey Adi will start playing THE most important role in her life... and steer/support her on her way to find the truth, self-realization, self-discovery and healing and then both will together move onto accepting love again.So, if all she is doing now is cry and cry, pl bear with her, the poor girl is too much in shock and life has thrown too much at her too fast...#PEACE
