The show is titled *Mangal Lakshmi*, yet Lakshmi receives minimal screen time, with every plotline being centered around Mangal, transforming her into an *Anupma"-like figure. Lakshmi and Kartik are fresh, dynamic characters with more depth compared to Adit and Mangal. The show's TRP was strong when Kartik and Lakshmi were portrayed as the lead characters, but now that they’ve been relegated to supporting roles, the ratings have declined. The creators are squandering the potential of Kartik and Lakshmi in favor of Mangal, which is causing me to lose interest and reconsider watching the show altogether.
