While the drama was quite loved initially, it seems that it cannot hold the attention of the audience too long. 

Netizens feel that a lot of emotional abuse is being meted out through the female leads and are questioning why it is necessary to show the leads as such damsels in distress. 

Take a look:

Pratiksha Nagare shared, “ Why do bechari tortured emotionally abused leads be the only way to get TRPs? Isn’t there no room for creative concepts?”

Anand Raut stated, “Bring back strong independent outspoken rebellious female lead era back as soon as possible!”

Chinmay Vishwas averred, “There should be shows where the audience’s intelligence is put to test. There are so many tracks which can be churned around that.”

Paras Gala expressed, “When there are so many new concepts being rolled and and there are many who are churning unique plotlines to add a different element to television shows, I wonder why we are still stuck to showing female leads crying or ranting.”

Sayli Paranjpe opined, “I think the show is just doing fine. There are some tracks which slow down the momentum only to pick up again and I am enjoying the show so far.” (Also Read: Mangal Lakshmi Spoiler: Lakshmi almost catches Adit at Saumya's house )
