What new side characters to add drama ruined a show for you? I don't remember all of the shows but from the scenes that I had seen in YRKKH Gen 3, I honestly think that Abhinav shouldn't have existed, as well as the scenes between him and Akshara seemed forced to me. But that could be because of offscreen issues🤔 Whereas in Ghum S1 I liked Satya again of the scenes I saw more than Virat. What about you guys? Which side character was unnecessary in your favourite shows or the shows you liked? 5 12 replies

Secretly gay men who married women due to society's stigma, how is life after marriage? I was unaware of how many gay men are pressured into marrying women. This stems largely from societal stigma and the topic being taboo. Additionally, a lack of understanding about what it means to be gay contributes to the problem. My own understanding of the frequency of these situations grew significantly after a conversation with a gay acquaintance. He shared details about his dating experiences, including meeting many middle-aged men on Grindr who were married with children. One particular example that struck me was a soldier (army or CRPF)... 2 20 replies
ITA 2004 Discuss This blew me over like a sweet wave of nostalgia. Had seen this the time it aired but it's etched in my mind that I still remember every detail. Gauri awarding Hiten for best actor, fan goal unlocked right there. So nonchalant but authentic, no shosha, fireworks but a win that was palpably deserved. Ram and Gautami as I remember them, 1st OG couple. KTH clear sweep, who could ignore that wave. Rakshanda really was the best host, easily beats any one from today. https://youtu.be/cGh3oE60YPI?si=c9BvqOWcHN__B6AT 3 2 replies

We can implant desires that will manifest in reality. We can even forecast our future and some other abilities. What is the relationship or difference between that thoughtless state and Samadhi? 4 4 replies
