Awesome post, Nidhi. I agree with every word. We've been neglected as a minority forever, pretty much, and even now, it's a rough ride to say the least.
I'm not even going to get into all the things I've been missing from the SwaRon track after that BEAUTIFUL confession. It isn't even about expectations, just what a RELATIONSHIP needs to be like...but anyway, like I said, I won't get into it.
Like you, I watch the show for SwaRon, and I wouldn't watch if it weren't for them. It's a very simple fact, and the CVs need to acknowledge that this is the case with fans of all the love-stories on their show. They can posit it as a show about 12 characters, but the majority of an audience picks their favourites to watch for. Mine are SwaRon, and as much as I love the show as a whole, I can't imagine it without SwaRon. And won't watch it without them. 'Nuff said.
I love SwaRon for who they are as individuals, and what they are together. Swayam is unreal, and just everything one could dream of in a guy...but what I love most about him is the way he loves Sharon. I don't know what adjectives to use for it, but just the way he loves her...the way he looks at her, the way he understands her, even the way he gets upset with her...the way he loves her for what she is, all of her, inside-out...and the way he sees her, like really sees her, beyond the Diva image she's created for herself so carefully. And Sharon I LOVE simply for how human she is. She isn't perfect, and that's what makes her so beautiful. She's complex, nuanced, and everything an ordinary girl is somewhere, like Amu said so rightly. And that's what makes her extraordinary, for me. And together, they are just the most BEAUTIFUL story, that has been told just as beautifully until recently, when they appear to have hit insurmountable roadblocks. The confession, for me personally, was SPECTACULAR. I LOVED it, and there have been little moments I've loved since, but I can count those moments off on the fingers of one hand, and we're talking two months' worth of half hour episodes here. It's almost absurd how they've been plunged into one issue after another without ANY space to just let the fact that they are in a RELATIONSHIP sink in...and this hold for them as well as for me as a viewer. I still don't feel the impact of what that means, after more than a year of waiting...they are TOGETHER. But are they, really? And are they happy? Are they EVER going to be happy? It's this that circles my mind now...all that excitement utterly forgotten...sigh.
I'm waiting to see how they handle this. The precap is confusing, the promo quite awful. Let's see what the actual episodes have in store.
