ely...u wrote this for raghav...i'll write this for hc⭐️

i've been watching him for the past 4 1/2 yrs...and not once has he ever given me a reason to complain..to feel dissatisfied as a fan...

for the past few days...i was feeling very low...its not easy to let go off somebody so close to ur heart that easily...doesn't matter if its just a fictional character...

coz for me that character comes alive on my screen with hc's face...

and he makes me live the life of his character with him...

u start thinking like him..u starts seeing things from his perspective...

there's something which draws u towards those fictional characters...

who might not have any hint of reality in them...

but its hc...who makes sure u see beyond wats written in his script...

makes them as close to reality as possible...

to feel the characters...to live the characters...

watching yesterday's epi...somehow raised my spirits...

i know yesterday's epi marked the beginning of the end of raghav...

but...

i was left with a sense of satisfaction as i sat on my sofa...

the remote held on my cheeks...

and my eyes not blinking even once...

i just knew its good that hc is out of this...

i'm sure there are greater heights of success out there for him to scale...

raghav for me...was a name...that actually came as a hope...

i had stopped watching the show long time back...coz i simply abhored the way jahnvi was treated on this show...

the very first look of raghav...the way they showed him in promos...made me feel intrigued...

wen sia bumps into him in the promos...not once was he shown questioning sia...his instant reaction was to safeguard her from her fears...though she was a stranger for him...

this was the first time...one saw a character who as so selfless in nature...

his half tucked checked shirts...his messy appearance...his black vests,...his fights...

all of them became a way of life for us...

his pain...his connection with sia...his redemption in krishh...all of them made u mesmerised...made u hungry to see more...want more...and know more of raghav...

wen his mom slapped him..on their very first meeting...the way his eyes looked at her...

all u wanted to do was...wat lay in his dark past...which had made their relationship so bitter...

harshad and sumukhi proved that wen two actor's at par..perform on screen...the screen comes alive with their interaction...their relationships start breathing...coz of the life they induce in it with their performances...

wen komal came up as his confidant...wen he opened up abt his feelings for sia with him...u wanted to rip off the layers that lay hiding their past...thirsty to know wat made komal so close with him...a person who was accused by his own mother for being the cause of her husband's death...

i don't know if any of u remember raghav and sunder's first few interactions...i simply loved all of it...

i loved how sunder understood raghav so well...how even before raghav could admit...sunder just knew his friend's heart had indeed skipped a beat for sia...

raghav-tashu actually made me miss the fact that i never had an elder brother...i always felt elder brothers were dominating...ye mat karo..waha mat jao types..strict...

but seeing raghav and tashu..i felt there can be a totally different relationship too..

i loved how both gave the space and freedom to each other..but at the same time making sure...that they were taken care off...

i loved how both understood each other so well...

reliving their childhood days...

i actually have no idea wat i should be writing abt my two mard's...🤣

they r the best pair...

it was strange how raghav always found his confidant in little krishh...the trust that he had in him...that he'll never divulge any of his secrets...

i loved how krishh was always there for raghav wen he needed him...

though they were not father and son..

the relationship which they shared was the most beautiful thing that this show had⭐️

oh yes...i simply loved the diff ways in which raghav picked up krishh...😆

each time it was diff...and it made me feel how close harshad and yash were off screen...coz the kind of ease yash used to have wen hc was with him..is unbelievable...

i'm sure...hc picked up yash is more ways than wat we saw of them on screen...

i soo wish we atleast got some off screen segments

as far as raghavii relationship is concerned...

i simply loved the kind of trust they had in each other...and it was mutual...

i had read on this forum how raghav was always an opportunist ...how he couldn't wait to lay his hands on sia...

but raghav...proved that for him...sia was his love...which was pure and he worshipped her...

the way raghav gave space to sia...acknowledged and respected her as a human being...says a lot abt him...the way he put her wishes first...rather than forcing his desires on her...reflected the kind of strong character he had...

i simply loved the kind of relationship both shared...

the way their relationship was set stage after stage...

no matter how much the growth in their relationship was ignored as per screenplay...

harshad-sriti made sure to portray their relationship to its utmost beauty for watever little screen space they got...

harshad and sriti...

wenever i think of these two...as actors...and think abt their chemistry...

i always feel cheated...

there was a lot more that the cvs could've covered...but they never bothered to explore this chemistry...

its our loss i agree...but more than ours..its their loss...coz they lost the opportunity to recreate an unforgettable and hit onscreen pairing...

something that could've lifted their channel from the kind of mess they r in right now...

i've seen channels run on jodis and here the channel missed out on one such golden opportunity...

neways...humara kya hai...

we know we'll get to see such chemistry again...as long as harshad is there...

harshad...with raghav...u made a character who was torn into bits coz of his inner turmoils..his inner pains...get together...and come out as a strong willed person...a messiah for the weak...but his eyes...reflecting his vulnerality as a broken person...who needed solace...

thank for giving us this unforgettable character...where we got to witness few of ur best performances...

may god bless u always...

coz for me

this is no end..

its just the start of a journey which'll mark the being for u to scale greater heights of success!

this is ur victory as an actor...

where...

raghav dwells in our hearts...

where ppl are not ready to see raghav die...

where ppl have stood by ur belief as a person...

Well said ana but characters like Raghav are a rarity in Indian TV and that is why it hurts more to see them butcher a special character like him. You just need to look around, how many characters male leads that is are actually strong or different on television right now? There are none. As much as i would like to see Harshad play a character that challenges him, the sad fact is in this industry there is hardly any opportunity for that.

But words are all I have to give in return for what Harshad has given us through Raghav. There will always be people who won't know how to value his hard work, who will tear him down just to watch him crash. But with every fall I believe that Harshad will rise higher, taller, and stronger than before. His journey as Raghav has helped him grow as an actor is what I feel. And he will continue to grow. He's underrated and underappreciated. It doesn't matter; because the greatest of all artists have been underappreciated at least once in their lifetime.
