Nalini Persad

It is a pseudo Puranic story, and there is no reference to any of the characters except the leadinaracters. Many episodes are fiction and introduced by Sony TV serial story writes. I have checked against various Puranic sources, such as the Puranic Encyclopedia and other online sources, but many characters and episodes do not have a truly Puranic authority. I am not against this approach as this is a modern creativity in this century, mainly to attract younger viewers, older ones to keep them entertained. so this fiction has to be treated as fiction, which is twice removed from Ganesha Purana, Devi Mahatmyam, Sivapuranam, etc But looked at the point of younger viewers, it is better to teach younger viewers the concept good and evil, right and wrong, truth and untruth. Thinking in this way, the production itself is very good, and engaging. Right now, the stories on the serial revolve around Sri Ganeshji telling the King of Varanasi, the tales of Ganesh, his parents, his brother Kartikeya to set wrongs right, uphold truth against untruth, uphold good against evil, etc. All told it is a show for teenage children, and older people who like this type of genre. I will be taking a holiday till it takes a different course.

After reading all the above comments, my opinion is that it is one of the better serials on Star Plus at present. It is much better that Ye hai Mohabbatein, which seems go on and on and one. It is going to a third generation level now. To watch or not watch, is viewer's privilege. If you do not like the show you can watch something else. Just like you can get fed up with eating same kind of food day after day, you can change and watch something else. But there are people who like the show, and the rating shows that. It is one based on empowering women, if we appreciate Jhansi ki Rani, why not Krishna chali London?

It is certainly irritating to see so many frequent advertisements, reducing the actual show times out of 30 minutes to nearly 15/18 minutes, There is lot of of background music to mitigate the boredom of repeated memory scenes, signifying mental strife for the guilty conscious Loveleen for causing Nimrat to die; her own being extremely oversized, become an unmarried/illegitimate mother, hastened to marry Sikandar as part of a music deal with him to save her honour, lying that Amayra's birth is premature, by Loveleen's overindulging parents. So there is little left to see the story progress. See we are stuck for now with mentally stressed Loveleen, Sikandar, suffering Kulfi, caught in between Amyra. The interludes are long enough to get a cup of tea and return to the TV show!

Very lively, realistic, comic, with moments of tragic memories, a lot of humour and tenderness, a lovely family drama - brings life to otherwise drab daily life for one who has completed all family duties and passing time and old age reading and TV comedies of 5 star rating, when I myself give the five stars!! Thanks a lot to the production house, the story writer, the dialogue writer, and all the actors who are other wise rare old time actors, some totally new. It is the first time that I have seen Swetha Tiwari on any screen. Now thanks to TV channel Sony (Hindi) I am enjoying quality show.
