Uday...a compli-...a very complicated character - Page 2

Since I have started this show, I can't figure out if I should like the character or hate him. Sometimes he is so charming and sweet with Moniya that you can't help but love him (and especially when he smiles at her)...but than again on other hand it all seems pretentious and than you are like ARGH! The thing is you don't even know when he is pretending and when he is not, which makes his character very complicated to comprehend.

With his sister he is so adorable, but otherwise he is evil...mean and it is quite evident from his lies to DS for his own benefits, trying to control Moniya, and his talks with Jay. From what I have come to understand, he is not a bad person but yes at this point in time...he is bad...grey-shaded, I mean, as in egoistic, mean, pretentious, and just living a double life yet caring towards the people he loves. He is not a complete prince who would go out and care for people, infact he is quite the opposite. He believes that the world revolves around him and hence I would like to use the word "self-centered" for him. He shows the world he cares but again it is all pretentious to me right now. He is definitely using Moniya for his own personal benefits (as in he is selfish) yet some of his feelings/care seem genuine to me. For example...yesterday when he took Moniya to the shooting, it seemed as though he was actually in the moment enjoying with her but the moment before that, it definitely seemed like a trap to me. And I think I might be the only person thinking it to be a trap or whatever. Hence, him being a complicated character. I feel like I just don't know him yet...as if there are so many more layers to his character which are yet to be revealed, yet to discover. And I am definitely looking forward for that.

My personal feelings towards Uday is quite positive but no connection yet. I want him to grow as a person and I am just looking forward to that. I just hope that SA does not skip that part and just show that he falls in love with Moniya and turns into a good guy. Obviously she would bring out the best in him, but I want his growth track to be parallel with Moniya becoming a princess track or maybe afterwards...but I want to see the actual "process". And by positive, I do not mean he should totally be like Aakash...no ways!! But I just want to see him realize the actual responsibilities of being a prince that he pretends he knows but know nothing at all and also see some soft corner in him towards Moniya and everyone else. Does that mean he should not make any mistakes? No. Does that mean he should cry all the time? No. But I just want to see who actually Uday is...and so far I am yet to see that.

Thoughts?

PS: Sorry if I confused anyone from this post...like I said I am confused myself in understanding complicated Uday right now...that maybe my thoughts got all jumbled 😛

nice post!

Before, i comment, your siggies brought back the golden memories of Remix. Ashi-Yuvi were my favourite :)

OK, coming back to the topic, I think that different people bring out different sides of Uday & i think that is really HUMAN. All of us are very different with different people. Unnati, Manyata, Komal bring out the caring side of Uday. His dad brings out the evil side of him etc.

I do agree it is hard to understand him, BUT if you look just at the core being he is, I believe, he's a nice guy. He may be ambitious, but who isn't? I feel that his feelings are genuine, but they are masked by his desire for the estate, which has been planted in him, by his dad.

well, lets see, how his character develops & yes, i would like to see the process as well :)

I feel UdayVeer is not just a man of many layers, but also a person who has built solid Iron vaults around himself. He is every inch a Prince...Poised, Charming, Selfish, Calculative, Manipulative and Diplomatic... he has made himself into someone who is unreachable...he is someone to be desired, someone to idealize, someone who epitomize power and confidence...yet someone who is so larger then life that its almost impossible to connect with him emotionally.

I LOVE LOVE his evilness, his pragmatic, calculative bitchy self...it is dark and opportunistic. Yet he is so compelling and has so much conviction in himself that a person cant help but root for him. He is someone to be admired...he is smooth, sly, slick and oh so charming...girls would be dropping various articles of their clothing around him...whoever meets him becomes enamored by him...he has everyone eating out of the palm of his hand😆😆😆...whether it be The Rajmata, Coat pe B waley uncle, or Princess J Ghamandini (had to use Moniya's words 😆 they r too awesome to not use)...yet no one knows what actually goes on in his mind.

With Unnati he is very sweet...With his father is very confident yet respectful...but not the real Uday, the human...There are emotions and sweetness exchanged but with careful measurement...as if he is almost afraid to open up his true self to anyone...he is unbeatable. someone who cannot be HURT or Touched no matter what the other person does. He is only Glamour and Charisma and all raw power...no sign of humanity anywhere...for I feel that, to be human is to be imperfect.

The reason why his character is so interesting having me going gaga over him is the sense of mystery that his true self is shrouded in...there are Glimpses of the True Uday present in there somewhere ...only a couple of times...but those small glimpses have left me wanting for more...the scene where he drove around like a maniac after BrijRaj's request for him to Marry J, the conflict and agitation within him while throwing those stones...his conflict over his thirsting ambition to acheive the Throne and harboring an unwanted, unknowing hope of the return of his childhood friend...his stunned disbelief when he sees Manyata's Scar at the night club...his unwarranted hope/fear when he stares and bows to her at the end of their encounter...recently his bruised Ego when HIS Fiance, whos Loyalties should belong to him claims to Love another, Hearing her Profess that Love and most recently his trepiadition at her being lost all over again...this is the real Uday without any masks...he tries soo hard to play it cool, compose himself over and over again...and yet these moments give evidence and hope that there resides a lil centimeter of humanity within the every inch of an Ambitious Prince.

P.S. i know its too long...but i love the anti Heros...he reminds me of the Evil Thakur i was in love with 😃...anyway the scoop for Character Development of almost all the major characters here is what is holding me glued to my Screen😍...i hope the writers take it in a forward direction rather than restricting the characters within a circle...

P.P.S. BTW loved your Thoughts on Uday as well...very well put 😊

Couldn't have said it better. You have just pointed out the exact characteristics of Uday. He is a mystery and has caged himself and buried his feelings deep down inside where even he cannot reach. And so he doesn't even know what he is feeling.

You know today his scene with Unnati where he talks about freedom and how it comes with restrictions...I felt for the first time that I was seeing the real him. Someone who feels so caged and he doesn't even know why. He is just made to believe that there is no such thing as freedom, true love or whatsoever. All these things are fairytales and reality is quite different. Which is true to some extent, but the only mistake he is doing right now according to me is that he is also taking away that freedom from Moniya. I am totally rooting for ManVeer, but claiming to own her is a bit too much for a free bird like Moniya...like Unnati said. And I don't know why but that scene was just amazing. And it would certainly be amazing to see how this is going to lead Uday to just self-discover himself.

You know there is a saying that we learn only when we make mistakes...so it's probably like this mistake of Uday is going to make him realize the worth of Moniya and in some way bring him closer to himself, I think.

As for those first few episodes you are talking about when his father proposed him to marry Jay and his conflicts...I have not seen those so would you please link me to it or explain?😳 But seriously...Uday is one amazingly sketched out character so far and I hope SA uses it well.

PS: I love anti-heroes too...one of them being my favorite yuvi from remix. And thakur...i don't know if you are talking about remix or some other show but if remix...yaa maybe but I see ranveer more as Aakash😛 But that is my opinion, ofcourse😛😳

@ your PPS: Thank you😳

@Bold...exactly...its like even after all teh privileges and entitlement that comes with being a prince...Liberty or Freedom is not it...he cant allow himself to ever loose sight of how he is the Yuvraj of Jaigarh...its like he has almost stopped thinking of himself as anyone but the crown prince...he is trapped within this Role of the heir...and maybe he is bitter thats y he cannot acknowledge that there might be more to life then gaining States and Prestige...o.O or he wants to take Manyata's freedom away...just coz somewhere he is jealous of it...its like HIm the Udayveer cant have it...so how can she his Honewali Maharani can have it?...so much angst 😍 so much room for character development
