So to be honest , up until now, I hadn't really warmed up to Om, because I found him too good to be true, too perfect to be real, but I really liked how in the last few episodes, we see exactly what his flaw is, it is his rigid ideology, like Shivaay says Om " sees the world in black & white" when in reality, the world is a myriad of grey hues interspersed with flashes of black & white.
To borrow a quote from ASOIAF , Om is " pure iron, black and hard and strong, yes, but brittle, the way iron gets. He'll break before he bends". Ishana is the counter to this rigidity, she will teach Om to see life, beyond a spectrum of black & white, because this rigidity will lead to disappointment, human beings are flawed, sometimes we will exceed expectations , sometimes we will barely meet it & many a times, we will fail to meet expectations, But it does not make us bad or evil, just human beings, flawed & beautiful.On another note, I know a lot of people, don't like Ishana trying to break up Om & Riddhima, but in my opinion, this is interesting.She is morally wrong but she is no mahaanta, she is selfish & doing whatever it takes to better her family & her life.
Personally I haven't warmed up to this character still...not because he is "too good to be true" but he is extremely one dimensional since day one as are most of the characters in this show. The difference is in the fact that his character is the most pretentious and put on of the lot.His "black and white" ideology has been apparent since day one...he's had previous debates with Shivaay on ideological differences as well. But that's about it...his character is all about making random pretentious observations about things but having no real strength to stand up and use his brain (if he has one one). First chance he gets, he folds over and needs Shivaay to prop him up. It's funny how they try to sell him as the 'wise" one of the bunch when he depends so much on the others to stop him from being one step away from suicid-ing at the mere hint of a setback in life😕😆Re: Ishaana...lol the problem isn't that she's trying to break up Om and Riddhima, the problem lies in the utterly aimless set of scenes she has...no basis, no graph for her character whatsoever.
Anu😛, I agree on the pretentious part, the thing being he thinks he is really humanist when he is so rigidly unforgiving, I think his character growth will be when he realises how he is probably not so much a benevolent humanist. as he likes to imagines himself to be ,but a rigid adherent to an ideology, just like Shivaay who rigidly adheres to capitalism, the difference being Shivaay is self-aware of his elitism.As for Ishana, my problems with her echo yours. But I am addressing the fact that a lot of people think its wrong that Ishana is breaking up Om & Riddhima but honestly for me, that made her interesting to an extent.
