@ prettypri :
My comment was a general one and not for you, per se.
What I meant was : An actor usually gets into the skin of his character for a superlative performance, something which Harshad has done. But sometimes, we are able to distinguish Sahir and Harshad esp. when he takes off his shirt. Reason : Only for TRPs.
Because, Sahir is a loner, brooding n loves the silence around him and his space and speaks in monosyllables. So for him to take off his shirt at the drop of a hat may not be so easy, unlike Zaks who has a different personality or Anam who has plenty of skin show. When Sahir is hurting himself n Aarzoo comes in unannounced, or in the pool (u cant jump with your clothes on!) the abs show is valid, but not when Aarzoo is being molested. đ
This tones down the seriousness of the scene as your attention is diverted to his abs and toned body. The message being conveyed is diluted to an extent. Just one of the instances I hav mentioned to put my POV across. So Harshad becomes more prominent than the character of Sahir to increase TRPs. đ
So while sympathy for the character of Sahir is gaining ground, the Creatives are also using Harshad's body to a large extent...
