haha! I myself is a big fan of kes-gul and want to see them together as a couple and as i want to see them as a couple then romance would automatically be followed after that. Although i some what agree with you that kesar still needs to understand how he should follow his heart, he is mostly brainwashed by other people in the house which turning him into taking wrong decisions. He is 22 and he completely understands what love means, as we see him not forcing gulaal into an intimate relationship because he himself havent feel anything about it, he only wants her to be close to him and that shows what unconditional love he has for gulaal... But i disagree on the fact you said that they could share a friendship relationship for the rest of their life that has love, care and respect...We alll knew that they were always meant to be together from the begiining. And every relationship that they has shared so far is unique. But that has developed through time. They hated eachother at first, they became friends and shared a true and strong bond and then they became husband and wife but their love for that relationship is still lacking. And i am not saying that it should happen right away. Its clear that it would take time, but the track that has shown today for gulala staying at kesar's room, is some what an indication that may be from now on, they will experience their feelings when they are together not necessarily physically close. But cv's creating that angle between them was right because thats how the story would move on. They stil need to show the realization of gulaal and how she comes out of her own unreal life that she has trapped within herself...i am happy that the new track that they want to show would be amazing because we would see kesar's gaining his maturity in terms of presenting himself infront of gulaal and not necessarily forcing her. Its going to be intresting to watch so many undeveloped feelings being developed one after the other. Kes-gul rocks! 😃First off, lovtv - excellent post. You are right on with your comment about Kesar - he is a kid, acted like a kid, wants Gulaal like a kid, loves like a kid, wins his trophy like a kid. He is a KID and nothing more. My heart goes out to him to see him so sad bechara and misunderstood by all, especially by Gulaal, but at the end of the day, I feel for him partly because he is a kid and partly because he is so cute!
With all emotions aside, 22 is old enough to understand the meaning of a relationship. The fact that he did not understand Gulaal's emotions and rationale for rejection is disturbing. Yes, he was sent to a boarding school, big deal! He was not kept in a dungeon that he failed to grow up.Yesterday's episode finally made me happy as I was really struggling with the romantic angle between Kesar and Gulaal. I am however saddened by the fact that the TRP went down because of this angle. I think the CVs are brilliant for showing the reality of things. If it were any other show, Gulaal would fall for Kesar and have their romance. But in this show, this issue was handled very realistically and very tactfully. Even Kesar understands that there cannot be romance between them, at least not yet, the Chhee was just brilliant and that's what I tried to say months ago. I just could not see them in a romantic setup.I think it would be a lot nicer if they can show how both Kesar and Gulaal use their void in life to fill each other's void. They can easily show this friendship and bond that was menat to be from the very beginning. Their relationship has always been a special one - one of love, care, concern, trust - does that need to be tarnished by introducing romance to it? Probably not.I know 95% of the forum members will disagree with me - especially all the Kes-Gul fans, but honestly Gulaal's personality is mind blowing and unless Kesar gets strong enough, she will always crush him emotionally. I do BELIEVE that Kesar is not ready or fit for Gulaal in his current form.
Shelly, I like your observations regarding Kesar's "love" for Gulaal. I quote the term because I find what is depicted is not love but an obsession which has no rationale. Gulaal is a widow and if people wish to argue that this marriage was done to protect Kesar, then for Gulaal this was not a marriage in the actual sense (let us leave aside what I actually think of the whole situation), and now Kesar is older and able to take care of himself, she should be allowed to relinquish this job of protecting him.I just watched yesterday day's confrontation between Gulaal and Kesar this morning and had to write about them. On an acting front both actors deserve 10/10 for that scene. The emotions, facial expressions, music, dialogues and the delivery of the dialogues etc were all exquisitely written and delivered by both. Enough said.
My topic is about Kesar and his immaturity.
The scene revealed that even though Kesar now looks like a man, underneath it all he is still a little boy who hasn't grown up emotionally. Like a child he threw a tantrum when Gulaal left the house. He cried, he begged, he manipulated, he tried to use every arsenal at his disposal to get Gulaal to come back. When that failed he allowed Raman to mislead him and went to the punchayat to force Gulaal to come back.
When she comes back and offers him when she thinks he wants he is totally taken aback. What are you doing in my room? Of course I didn't want "that"!!! I don't want to live "with" you just be "near" you. While Gulaal has been shown to give this situation a lot of thought Kesar has just reacted. He said he considers Gulaal his wife but he hasn't thought about exactly what that means and what he wants from the relationship. He still thinks of her as his possession...his love, his thoughts are those of a child. Maybe the early marriage has never allowed him to think beyond a child.
Kesar may love Gulaal but that love is still very childlike, immature. He still thinks of Gulaal from a child's view. He probably knows everything about her likes and dislikes but he doesn't know her as a woman. Her grief, her sadness, her maturity, her loneliness. He sees it but I don't think he quiet gets it at the deep fundamental level.
Yesterday's scene was a wake up call for Kesar and almost a cleanse for Gulaal. Those tears and her collapsing yesterday seemed somewhat therapeutic. If leaving the house was closure for Vasant...yesterday's tears and confrontation were her first step towards Kesar.
Kesar has a lot of growing up to do before he is ready to love and accept Gulaal and his marriage to her as an adult with everything it entails. On the other hand Gulaal has to still let go of Vasant and see Kesar as an adult.
As wonderful as yesterday was it was a revelation to us as a viewers how far apart they still are. It also gave me new respect for the CVs of Gulaal and trust that they will give us a wonderful ride as we see Gulaal and Kesar become GULSAR!!!!!

@Laila - you just love to push buttons LOL. You would again see an outpour of anger over this - too funny. 😉
