The once-iconic serial Balika Vadhu has gone down the drain.
Apart from a bigamous guy doing the rounds and wanting to get married a third time (!), the proposed third time is supposedly going to be (a) with his ex-wife's sister-in-law (bordering on incest) or (b) with a lady who is still married till date! What a wonderful social message - keep making marital blunders and get a new wife served up on a platter.
In addition to this horror, we had a honeymoon in Kashmir, where the husband, a reputed Government official, was captured by goons. Although the serial backtracked by saying it was a case of mistaken identity and that no terrorism was involved, is that really the way a responsible channel wants to promote a terror-free Kashmir?
The serial is an eyesore now, even catching the promos is torture. Please Colors Viacom, shut down this show and salvage whatever little respect this show enjoyed not too long ago.
Reaching this point has been exhausting but seeing this level of support keeps the frustration at bay. It is clear that I am not the only one tired of watching this show degrade into something so harmful. I am weary, but I am certainly not finished with this.

Yes please shut down this show. They are continously repeating tracks an have bumped off a very important character named Shivraj Shekhar. The show is gloomy and just gives one message: Never be good because then happiness will never come to you.

This show has totally lost the plot. The storyline is so toxic now and promotes such garbage values. Just end it already.
