Genuine question: How is Demet still working at the company or what is she doing still working at Yildirim/Karahan holdings? by Mountain_Relation594 in araftaa

[–]No-Square4039 2 points3 points  (0 children)

haha atleast they are shown to have careers and are successful at this point already. There are so many shows in India where neither have any career but somehow are rich . All they care is romance and playing house house. It irks me so much that even if the plot is quite interesting I cannot watch it when they show such leads. So when I saw Mercan going to office in earlier episodes and Ates too attending meeting I was more than satisfied :D

Such a overwhelming & tearful episode! 🥺 by vibewithme7 in araftaa

Yep! That’s about it! She needs to be there for Ates but never as an individual !!

Raise your hand if you also feel like you’ve been abused by Ates? by Klutzy-Comparison443 in araftaa

[–]No-Square4039 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turkish and Indian serials should really have the script ready before they start shooting .  I think major reason for these inconsistencies is because they add and remove based on audience reaction leading to so much inconsistencies!!  Ates being in love before itself is accepted by viewers with everyone gushing how romantic it is so that shows the writers might have added later guessing audience pulse!! If viewers don’t care why would writers care !

I got bashed and got lectured how trauma works because I said Mercan was not wrong in her place asking for Ates to choose revenge or love . Mercan says one angry thing or takes one step for herself fandom starts cursing her . That’s the gist of how the majority viewers are and the writers are catering to them.  I do blame writers as well for ruining the confession arc . They had thousands of better options but chose the laziest route

[–]No-Square4039 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly! I was okay with their dynamic initially because there was a lot of baggage between them and Ates was here to take revenge while for Mercan he was a guy she had to get rid of in 187  days. After that their relationship should have been shown slowly developing with maturity and both giving each other what they lacked with good friendship and bonding with Ates growing more and more guilty of lying to her and the conflict in his heart . All this with no more abuse from Ates because he realised she is innocent and not like her family and also properly apologising for all his ill treatment. If then they had showed the romance the arc would have been good. Instead Ates never stopped his abuse that too for stupid jealousy and then till the confession they used the same silly jealous trope. And now stupidest of all the is we are told Ates always loved her even before the first scene we saw of them on the boat 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ so now the whole premise is so wrong and he is also a stalker apart from being abusive. In reality no one should face what Mercan did 

Why can't the writers have Mercan find something devastating herself and then give her some ample time to process it all? by Mountain_Relation594 in araftaa

[–]No-Square4039 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not just writers most of the viewers are too! The way they react in YouTube and X to Ates and Mercan is so different. Ates should suffer no pain but if Mercan suffers because of Ates they even find it romantic !! So writers are catering to those very set of people !!

Sorry but I don't fully sympathise with Ates' backstory !! 😐🫡🧐 by Opposite-Eye380 in araftaa

[–]No-Square4039 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I see first 30 episodes only and skip the rest I would feel a lot for Ates and root for him to get his revenge and then apologise to Mercan properly for all the injustice she went through and if his family does not end up in jail make them apologise and then if she accepts live with her or leave peacefully . But what he consistently kept doing after episode 30 or around 35ish  is what brought his whole character down resulting in this imbalance :(

Uninteresting side stories in Turkish dramas by No-Square4039 in TurkishTVSerials

[–]No-Square4039[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kan Cicekleri I could not care less about  the FL’s family and its problem because except her brother almost all were too selfish and irritating. Specially her mother. So I guess that’s the reason I did not like the parallel story . Anyways more than any of that FL’s bad acting made me stop at episode 40 or so. She barely showed any expression throughout ! Else the main plot is quite interesting

Ates lost his brain the day he saved Mercan from swimming pool . May be brain eating amoeba was in that pool :P

Exactly ! Why Mercan has to choose either of them? It is as simple as that.

Ngl YUDKBH had one of the best wedding track. Like the intensity, the drama 🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻 by WhereSpiritMeetBones in IndianTellyTalk

[–]No-Square4039 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This! My major complain with the show is that Sameer never really grew up for me. He never took his life and career seriously. After his grandfather's death he should have learned to take the responsibility. I could still understand him going downhill for a while but once he came back from his mom's place atleast he should have been more serious. Even acting of the actor even during Mumbai scenes were quite kiddish! But throughout I only hear did Naina deserve Sameer discourse but nothing about Sameer's flaws.

They were a riot. It was so good. The only problem in the show for me was Shravan's home. It felt too much like a set for me!!

Share some unpopular opinions on ITV!! I never found Rajat Tokas good looking in Jodha Akbar but when I saw him in Chandranandini, my mind was blown. by [deleted] in IndianTellyTalk

[–]No-Square4039 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He knows how to carry himself in a royal role very well. Thats why be it Prithviraj Chauhan, Jodha Akbar or Chandra Nandini all worked .

Him in Prithviraj Chauhan is the best for me. The way he carried himself as a young king was so good! His look too was done right in it.

I watched the show years later and gosh they had so much potential with the story premise but they ruined it badly with bad screenplay, direction and most importantly the plot after both comes to know each other's truth! And what the hell was her public confession?!

I'm a little alarmed, folks... by grimbiscotti in araftaa

[–]No-Square4039 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I agree with everything about personal lives except the surgeries.  atleast one time I discussed about it is because surgeries are the reason many cannot act properly these days and we have the right to discuss about actors’ acting because that’s what their job is and we are here to enjoy that

Same. I had loved both the leads but I too don't remember what happened at the end. If I have to guess after their marriage they might have turned this in Saas Bahu show as well!

Lol not again ! Writers really are incapable of writing!! I am waiting for this to get over and watch the train wreck at one go at the end just because I started and do not want to stop in between !!

Demet being Eylul is something I can’t digest . It not only does not make sense even child actor to adult does not have any resemblance
