In another universe; Ram, Pallavi, aur baarish....

aka, I love these two baarish-loving bacchas, and they both deserved far better partners than the terrible ones ITV gods destined them to have.

Hii AJ! I'm not sure how many pending asks you have atm or if I'm even supposed to be sending asks to this blog instead of JWB but since this is unrelated to IPK I thought to reach out here, please answer only if you want to and have the time to :)

I finished Ipkknd a while ago and I have had nothing good to watch for so long, i was looking forward to Kabhi kabhi ittefaq se and Balh2 but i couldn't get into the latter and the former seems like some show I've seen already, do you still watch something on ITV and do you have any recs?

Also, random question but when did you first watch Ipkknd? What got you hooked to it?

Hello loveliest@rae-blogging Since you wrote to my other blog toh you get the benefit of a faster reply, lol. I have 15!!!

You are very very sweet so ofc I'd love to reply to you! Thank you for the loveee <3 Currently ITV is in its worst state in its existence. There's barely anything worth watching.

The two shows that is on air and I'm watching are:

Waghle Ki Duniya - a fun family sitcom that's about a middle class family

Ziddi Dil Maane Na - not the most interesting show but it's a fun take on friendships, love and life in a military setting (very nostalgia feelz of early 2000s Star One)

I keep a track of:

Imlie - Sumbul and Farhan are great actors and share amazing on screen chemistry and I was taken by Aryan and Imlie's platonic relationship that simmered with the first blush of love. However I'm not the biggest fan of this forced wedding and all. Big turnoff. The show works well when stereotypical plot points aren't forced in. Also Imlie's loyalty to her 'ex sasuraal' is getting on my nerves, along with Aryan choosing the most convoluted way of getting a girl out of emotionally abusive and controlling relationships.

Kabhi Kabhi Ittefaq Se - the bengali version of this show was very sweet and it's kinda refreshing. The first few episodes are hard to sell and it feels like a reboot of Sasural Genda Phool however this show is a decent watch from the moment the leads decide to mutually agree to a divorce post a year. The show is wholesome and has its moments, but nothing that keeps me hooked to it.

Bade Ache Lagte Hai 2 - I am attracted to Ram being such an awesome guy. Absolutely love him! The plot? Not so much. Again first few episodes are tough to sell but this is the only reboot of an old show that is actually very good? Priya's character growth is stagnated so it puts the story in a slow pace - otherwise her pragmatism is charming - apart from the self age shaming. In short it's not something I'm very invested in, but it has its moments of 'aww' and 'hey that was nice'. The pros is that you can see good friendships in the show. The cons is sometimes this pair of 32 and 38 years old behave like they're in their 80s and there's nothing left to life cause they're so old. Dude even people in their 80s enjoy more at times. Last pro - Nakuul and Disha actually have really good chemistry.

Fanaa - it is a bit too quickly paced for my liking, but it's Colors show and the channel people there are crazy - they literally change plots overnight - but it's the only thriller show where the female lead is actually disgusted by the male lead's obsession and the male lead is a brilliant example of a deranged anti hero. It's like if Shyam was Khushi's best friends and did his shenanigans. First few episodes are a hard sell but I really like that the show ships the friendship and how Pakhi is growing to love her friend, but then seeing a brutal end by the fact that her friend may not be who she thinks he is. I only hope it ends as a good revenge drama. The female lead isn't an idiot and the male lead isn't a BUAHAHAHA villain. He has his motivations - but isn't excused for it and his psychology has its negatives and positives. IN GENERAL THOUGH, ITV has lost the era where something was consistently good. People who have long watched ITV have simply stopped watching it now and it's understandable. You might like these set of recommendations I had for shows in the recent past. If you wanna watch something Desi - I'd highly recommend going back to old shows cause old is literally gold here.

One other show that's not in my recs anywhere is Kaatelal and Sons. I definitely recommend watching this show all the way till the father accepts the two daughters for his business and where both of their marriages are fixed and it's a happily ever after. This is the guide for the show:

Watch it completely till Episode 167 (SKIP THE PART WHERE CHANCHAL CHACHI HAS MET AGNI'S MUM), otherwise watch as per time stamps below,

Episode 168 - 0:00 - 14:55, 18:38 - end of episode

Episode 169 - 0:00 - 1:56, 4:34 - 9:42, 10:04 - end of episode

Episode 170 - 00 - 2:10, 2:36 - 4:22, 6:42 - 8:43, 9:31 - 10:04, 10:39 - 11:46, 14:04 - 20:22

Episode 171 - 0:48 - 2:33, 5:59 - 9:09, 12:02 - 14:36, 18:27 - end of episode

Episode 172 - 00 - 4:42

Episode 173 - 4:26 - 11:31, 12:02 - end of episode

Episode 174 - 0:00 - 9:42

Episode 177 - 0:00 - 3:59, 9:55 - 10:55, 16:48 - 19:30, 19:44 - end of episode

Episode 178 - 0:00 - 1:50, 2:12 - 7:55, 8:17 - 9:42

Episode 179 - 2:33 - 3:20, 7:21 - 8:22, 9:41 - 11:26

THE END - THAT'S IT THE SHOW ENDED THEN AND THERE!

Phew that was a long list - hope you enjoyed this ask :)

Lots of love,

- AJ
