By ruckus, I meant your 'review posts'. You know I always used to wait for your stance on the episodes. You always had some valid points to make. And I even used to get disappointed sometimes when there was no post from your side whenever there was something in favour of Shiv in the episode. Your growing liking for Vyom & Sharanya as a pair was always visible so somehow I had accepted that you would never like Shiv as he was the third angle between them that time.
Sharing a link here from one of your such post which I feel was the final nail in the coffin, in short, the reason for all 'the ruckus'.
And you even said that 'if Namik defends this particular scene from his character's POV, I'll lose respect for him too'. This offended many Namik fans. If you had limited it to characters, it wouldn't even have mattered much.
You started this 'most controversial topic' on this forum. Then there were lots of posts on the same. Did Shiv touch Sharanya or NOT? Shiv received a lot of bashing & not just Shiv, some people didn't even spare Namik. What was even worse that Namik was labelled as a rapist because of this. The one who called him that runs a fanpage on insta & is a forum member too. And this was way before that 'possession & molestation' track. To witness this all was very hurtful. There was nothing from Shiv's side of the story & we were already disappointed. And to add in that was the negativity on this forum.
Not blaming you, knowing how sensitive this topic is for you. Your effective writing should be blamed for all this. But I feel, this was the reason for all the crap that started on this forum & other social media platforms. It was like those who already hate Namik (Some Vikram fans) and Shiv for the same obvious reason, found another reason to bash/abuse/degrade him.
You might not get the seriousness of the situation because I'm talking as a fangirl, from a fangirl's perspective. Anyway, that has become a past. It's just you asked & I answered. Baat khatam!! 😊
If Namik was termed as a "rapist" due to my post, then you should understand how scarring it is for me to see that my words were twisted so nastily by people who saw this as an opportunity to bash him. It's like providing fodder without meaning to.
The thing is, when you witness something like that being shown for the first time in a show which you've just started liking, you tend to get carried away with your words. It happens especially when you have experienced something like that or worse, first hand.
@Red bold I don't think I can reveal this on a public platform as to WHY I said this, but I said it with good reason. Maybe you can ask Sara, she'll give you the reason behind it.
I don't care if people love me, respect me or hate me for some or the other reason unless they're the reason my bills are being paid, but I do believe that it's my duty to right a wrong if the wrong is done by me. You say you're not blaming me but you are blaming me, anyway, and it's ok, I guess, since I have managed to ruin a celeb's image overnight.
