Time and Time again, we find that both Avinash and Rubina have not gotten the accolades they so deserve in terms of awards; just because the PH and Zee do not think about promoting them...

But they both deserve a "standing ovation" for taking the characters of Dev and Radhika and breathing life into them with their subtle, yet powerful performances...

There are many scenes that I have loved in CB2--my favorite with Rubina is the chunari scene, the time when she finds out that her marriage is fixed to Rohan and not Dev...the play of emotions on her face was just mind-blowing--again as you have said earlier, no words were necessary...just her expressions did all the talking...

I also love the subtlety they bring to romance--especially in romantic song picturization..These songs for ever are now etched in my mind as Dev an Radhika / Avinash and Rubina..The most recent one--Paigam laya sawan--belongs completely to them...

I truly hope--that there talent is one day recognized and they get opportunities beyond the world of daily soaps

Avinash has always been a lovely actor. Although his fortes are serious and angry roles, Regarding romance and acting, it is the soft subtle romance that they is master at projecting. They is what is called an excellent actor, who can basically slip in to any role that has been offered to him. and excellent use of body language and expressions, eyes.smile and through other lovely moments of CB which is most attracting thing of him as an actor .and

Radhika, thanks for reminding me about romantic scenes. One of the best romantic scene between them was in that farmer's cottage. First there was that rain song where Radhika was shown to dance with abandon in the rain (Dev's dream). Both Rubina's dance and expressions as well as Dev's happy expressions were excellent. Then there was that night scene in the cottage. He barely touched her and yet that romantic scene was outstanding because of their expressions. Rubina's expressions suddenly showed her thoughts veering to a certain direction and she blushing because of that, Dev suddenly became passionate once he understood her thoughts and saw her blushing face and then him almost getting close to her and then withdrawing with regret. Then her confusion at him pulling away from her but understanding his point of view. That was very beautifully done by both of them. Suddenly one could feel that these spiritual lovers also desire each other physically and are impatient at waiting to get close.

very true... avinash n rubina r the best... they are adorable together n they cn portray any emotion brilliantly.. awesome chemistry between them...

Misti wonderful post
gr8 write up.👏

First of all if it would not have been Avinash and Rubina playing Dev and Radhika, i would not have been watching ChotiBahu.
i watch it for RaDev played by Avinash and Rubina.
they are the souls of the show.

U beautifully explained the scenes, I love them too.
Even in yesterdays episode i loved the chunari scene at the mandhir...it was a complex of emotions and Avinash did it sooo beautifully. Thats why we CB forumers have given him the title Master of expressions.😳.
Rubina has come a long way, she transformed herself as a brilliant actor. i just love the simplicity with which she plays Radhika. the way she portray her love for her KK thought her eyes. and i am looking forward for the precap what they showed yesterday...Rubina was brilliant in that scene...

ur right, they both have the most beautiful eyes, honestly, and the expressions they portray with their eyes makes it more beautiful.😍
Remember, they show Radh's eyes very closely in the begining,😳 so beautiful, when Radh hears flute played by Dev on the boat...she gets so mesmerized into it...Wow rubi's eyes are so beautiful...i think i dont have to say about Avinash...how many times we would have commented about his eyes.😳
and in the CB1 the second eye lock of RaDev.😍 , at the nidhivan, they show them so closely, their eyes😍...i could still pic them so clearly.

There are so many scenes which i cant forget out of my mind. they have mesmerized us😳

the scene when they are together is so watchable, we are just mesmerized to just watch them, they have that great chemistry.
I'll never forget Dev-Radhika and ofcouse Avinash and Rubina...they live in our hearts.😍

Wonderful thread, Misti ... very beautifully written - you have captured a lot of the moments that i liked and a lot of the reasons why I really love the leads of this show and why they will always hold a special place in my heart. I have briefly watched a lot of other shows in the past 20 years and this is the first time that i have felt strongly enough about leads to watch a show just for them. A lot of the scenes that you described are also my favorites.

I'll start with Avinash ... he grabs your attention when he comes on the screen. It is a combination of his voice, looks, demeanour, smile, and overall personality. I think I have said it before - I would say that he has the "X factor" that makes him stand out . Love his voice and dialogue delivery - and he has the most expressive eyes in the industry. He has the capability to play a little boy (still remember the scene from Cb1 where he put his head on dadima's lap bcos he thought rads was too busy to be with him) and go full fledged into a difficult role like abhay's or a complex role like Dev's from Cb2. He also looks every inch the Rajpurohit and can easily carry off roles that require personalities that are larger than life. It is interesting how with very few dialogues he manages to tell a story. Imagine how much more powerful he would be if he had good dialogues to match.


As far as Rubina is concerned, I absolutely love the actress that she has become. She is extremely beautiful and like Avinash, has very expressive eyes. While I thought she was good in Cb1, she has absolutely excelled in Cb2. In Cb1 her soft innocent looks managed to hook me in the first part of the show ... but i was very impressed with how she played imerti. The contrast between rads and imerti was so vast that it was hard to believe that the same girl was playing both of them. In Cb2, she has done a wonderful job of emoting her pain and also her joy at the smallest of things.

Individually both are fabulous and together, they are dynamite ... the only comment i would make on their chemistry is that when i listen to or watch love songs, i think of them in those songs. Anyone wanting to see their chemistry in action has only to watch the episodes from 2 to 3 weeks back.

I would also love to see both of them in Bollywood ... in addition to talent both of them have the glamour and looks required to make it there. I would love for them to play more youth oriented roles. There is no reason why they could not have more fans on the forum - if only more people were not turned off from the show.

I really really hope they both get what they want - love the couple.

As far as the show is concerned, I truly think both Zee and DJs are very lucky to have them ... they would be stupid not to capitalize on the immense adoration that people have for both Avinash and Rubina

Thanks Rajsri for appreciating the post. Yes I do remeber you telling me before that Avinash has the X factor. I don't need to add anymore to what you have written regarding the acting of Avinash and Rubina. As for Zee and PH I don't know when they will wake and utilise the leads better...they have it in their hands and they are letting it go.

Misti thanks for the wonderful post...
