I Hate OMI in Yeh Pyar Na Hoga Kam

Do you watch the show Yeh Pyar Na Hoga Kam on Colors Tv Channel?
Well I used to and would like to. The show had a lot of things going for it. Firstly, it was a cute romantic love story between two neighbors. The lead pair of Gaurav Khanna and Yami Gautam are a big hit with the youth bringing a new kind of audience to Indian telly. Secondly it brought in family dynamics of a small town, lucknow, into everyone’s living room. The prejudices and customs associated with the Indian caste system, although heavily dramatized, still hold a lot of truth to it. So these and many more reasons made the show a very good entertainer, even for someone like me who never watches any soap operas.
However these days it seems the show is not about either of the above mentioned reasons. These days it seems the writers are very pleased to introduce a love triangle with the violent, jealous and terrible OMI. In the first few days that I saw him in the show, I thought the writers are just providing a sub-plot to delay the main story. However nowadays OMI has become the main story. Frustrated, I switched over to watching the show on Youtube so that I can just fast forward whenever he’s on screen. However they are showing OMI more and more on the show, to the point where he’s there in the full 25 mins of it’s airtime.
Well, I have since last week stopped watching Yeh Pyar Na Hoga Kam. From the Ad promos, it is abundantly clear that the channel is persisting with him and have made him into a major character. Well, for a few days I was surprised that there really was a show on Indian Telly which even I can watch… but not anymore… oh I hate OMI… Do you?
