Star Jalsha — Stagnant plot and poorly written characters in Khorkuto

This serial has seriously begun to grow on every nerve of my body- yes, indeed, every one of those 7 trillion (and more) nerves. In the beginning, I had grown an immense liking for it, since it did not have the excess and unnecessary drama and it seemed to be quite modern too. Oh, how very wrong I was. I thought of this as modern?! It is simply an orthodox serial hidden by that veil. In a recent episode, Shoujonyo said that after marriage, the in-laws' home becomes the real home of the bride. What? Excuse me? Various other such comments have been passed- even when Boroma got fever (supposedly), the problem was treated like it was her fault for going to visit her relative. Does she have no freedom? This is simply outrageous. Well, that family is very old-fashioned. However, they let Gungun do whatever she likes- from talking in such a rude manner to wearing short clothes. No, don't get me wrong. I believe that everyone should wear whatever they feel comfortable in- and if anyone were to oppose my clothing choices, I would fire back immediately. However, the other brides can't have the same freedom? It is very hypocritical, and it only appears as if they are being biased towards and making special exceptions for her, and I don't even get why. Now, don't get me started on Gungun. She is nothing but a spoiled brat- and I honestly do not see much character development in her. She is extremely lazy and incompetent, and moreover, she is very ill-mannered. And she is a college student, isn't she? Sorry, I mistook her for a 10 year old in the body of a 21-22 year old. She is innocent, yes. But way too innocent. At a point, its pure ignorance and stupidity rather than innocence, since I do not think she was so sheltered to be so gullible. And about her manners, she feels like she can talk to anyone however she wants. Sorry, but you can't do that. And barely anyone tries to fix it. They even encourage it. She demands elders to do the oddest things, and threatens to leave the house if they do not, and why is it that she is always treated like an angel? Okay, well, maybe she is pure at heart, but when one's behaviour is like THAT, in the real world, it won't really matter. Potka, Riju, Rupanjan, etc. always mock Shoujonyo for doing so much work. Well, isn't it lovely to tease someone so diligent unlike them? It is okay when it is moderate, but they are just crossing limits. They are glorifying the "no-work-only-fun" concept. Everyday is a vacation. However, vacations only have meaning because there is an end to them. Similarly, life has meaning because there is death. Endless partying would grow boring. And they are always dependent on others for money. Well, if they actually worked hard at their respective offices, I think the situation would be different. The viewers are getting fed this content, so won't they be inspired too? The show is nothing but 80% fun, partying, events (they seriously use ANY reason to celebrate), 20% drama and tragedy squeezed in with a dash of slapstick humor and the bad writing of characters. Shoujonyo is probably the only practical character who gets attacked the most, and I feel very sorry for him. Gungun previously was my favourite character and I absolutely adore her but now, I believe she has undergone character degradation. The plot is going nowhere, and one arc is stretched too long, till I just find myself withering from boredom. Sometimes, I do appreciate it, but more often than not, I am criticizing it.
