though many wud not agree with u on this, i do agree with u..
yes i agree with those who say it is akash's character that does not appeal to them, seems boring, hence their dislike for akash as whole... but i firmly believe that wht we feel towards characters is heavily influenced by the actors that play those roles... the fact that ashish is playing UV is a MAJOR factor on the popularity the character of UV is getting - i hope many do agree with me on this... and if u agree on this point, u gotta agree on the point that had another actor, one with much more chemistry with priyal, and overall a much more younger looking hottie, played akash, then our feelings would've been slightly, if not totally, different about akash...
i do believe that, not ashish, rather someone like arjun bijlani or harshad chopra or ksg (:P) been playing akash, MANY of us would've been conflicted with whose team we were on... because, just like an actor can personify a character, and make it much more likeable and lively, so can an actor diminish the character, albiet unknowingly. abhishek has been wrongly cast as akash. and another actor playing akash MAY have definitely effected our views on akash... just like had any actor other than ashish played UV, i may not have found UV that endearing.. keep in mind guys, uv has been constantly "portrayed" as a grey character, nowadays toh total villain style... ashish's hotness personified plays a HUGE role in us liking him so plus, plus the mysteriousness and naughtyness of his character... it's a package that we like or not like, in every character, after alll.. :)
