Its about connecting the dots and making it something an audience can relate to. As a viewer who spent considerable amount of time watching it, I have a right to voice out my opinions. I find Debina OTT but yes I do love the way she has been styled here. She comes across as more of a comic character than a menacing villain. Personally I preferred Nalini Negi as the cat as she portrayed the grace and cunning that was expected of her character very well. If Aditya was a vish purush how come he was acting like a vampire? Going by Vish (the show's concept) the body of a vish pursh or a vish kanya is composed of poison that gives them their power. If Sabrina did not go about drinking other's blood to survive why would Aditya need it? He is being transformed into a vish purush not Dracula. Rudra baba had died on the same day Rudrama rescued Alia. How is that even remotely possible? Even if Rudra had a reincarnation he should have been a baby the day Alia was pushed off the cliff. Not a grown woman much older than his previous birth avatar.
Haven't seen Tantra or Sitara. But judging by the initial promos itself I knew it was dumb (again my opinion only) and did not bother trying it. I tried Vish and though Debina's over the top acting put me off at times I tried watching it coz I felt the plot was interesting. But the story nor characters make sense to me. Its not a mandate to keep one's brains aside to enjoy fantasy. Take Harry Potter for instance. Its so well written and though it is a fantasy it transports you to another world altogether and its a herculean task for anybody to point out a loophole there or anything that didn't make sense from a story or character perspective.
Aditya is a Vish Purush only not Vish kanya. I think they are two different type. Vish is kind of immortal and Vish Purush is not. The first Vish Purush needed heart replacement. Adi is not yet Vish Purush. He is in the process of Vish Purush. May be that is why he needs human blood to kill his humanity. He is not a vampire, if he was a vampire he would have problem with sunlight. He is more like snake or spider type. Indian Churel, Pishach etc are not like western Vampire or werewolf. What we saw there can't be like India. So there wil be difference.
Even in english movies like Twilight, vampire was a friend who used to go to college and walk in sunlight. Even in vampire diaries all the veampires had normal life. Even eat food. Where in Dracula by Bram Stocker Dracula was a completely nocturnal animal who can turn in to bats and fly , stays upside down. But this is only Bulgarian version or Vlad the Impeler version. There are Greek vampires, japanese vampires, russian vampires, Irish vampires etc. Every single culture is different. So they always change. The serial "Supernatural" even changed original concepts of many supernatural beings. Some where just ridiculous change. Those were highly appreciated as we don't know the original story behind those they showed in supernatural. So I don't mind in Vish. If english serials can change, so can our IT shows.
I never liked Twilight. First two books of Harry Potter was flop. If JKR didn't publish the third book it would never get this much fame. Felt the movies boring too as I saw more interesting fantasy movies when I was a child. As you said everyone has their own opinion and likes.
To me also Devina is a comedian than a horror character. But I like her comedy. Rudra died and Rudrama was born as an elderly lady. Draupadi of Mahabharat had no childhood too. She was born from the fire as a young woman. So may be Rudrama is also like that. It happens in Indian stories.
