Now that ACP has been promoted to DCP ( Totally undeserving - khair! ), just wanted to have a look at his character growth .
The only growth I see is in terms of his looks - abtho bilkul oldie lagtha hain.
Gone are the days of dapper Virat Chavan! On the other hand, Sai looks like a million dollars!
ACP
Had strong morals
Was proud of his principles and values that he stood for
Chahe kuch bhi ho, he was always faithful to Sai (at least mann main). He could not love anyone else
He always kept Paki away from his and Sai's neeji maamle (he fumbled a few times, but I will still give it to him)
He was so proud of Sai's achievements and always supported in her dreams
Fought with his family (at least a few times) for Sai's rights
DCP
No morals whatsover, still the same old Chavan who supports crimes - both Paki's and his family's
Refuses to accept his mistakes - as usual always blaming Sai for anything that goes wrong
His gussa does not even spare Vinu sometimes
Shamelessly touchy-feely with Paki, though he himself told her that theirs is just a marriage to adopt Vinu and nothing else
His loyalty to Sai is highly questionable now
He saw in Kankavli how she was helping the village and living her dream of giving back to the community through her profession. Still he hasnt asked her a single word about it or said a word of appreciation.
He seemed so angry that she is alive and living her dream - Selfish kahin ka!
His brain (whatever little bit he had) has become non existent now
Sai has grown mentally and has become a strong mother. She has become more mature with age.
How come the same does not apply to Virat? As he got older, he became more and more obnoxious. Why does his brain grow backwards?
I know they want to keep him dumb for drama and to keep Paki relevant,blah blah...!
But even after all these years, he doesn't say a word against any of the vile creatures of CN when they spit venom at Sai.
Ye kaisa character hain !
Being a male lead, kuch tho acha rakho jiss se viewers thoda connect kar sake.
He has been turned into the most despicable character who is not even worthy of being a Lead! Itna gira diya isko ki agar redemption kare bhi na, viewers will not accept him. He is now irrepairable.
Nowhere in his character does he portray any love (purani or nayi) for Sai. All we see is gussa and disgust bhari looks.
Doesnt he have one happy moment with her that he can think of?
Isko bhi amnesia hogaya kya, writers ki tarah?
Itna gira hua insaann mein ne kisi bhi show main abhi tak nahin dekha hain!
Maybe Vanku needs a new dictionary to learn what positivity means.
This show is just toxic and triggering and upar say the most hated ML.
I hope the rumours are true and Ghum goes off air by Dec
Sorry it turned out to be a rant!
