But but if ASR's character was a normal character who did stuff that a normal guy would do then the TRPs would drain down.
IPK will be shut down by SP!
No matter how much we crib most of the audience who give TRPs watch it :(

Sweetie... the point is he could be vindictive without having to make her sleep outside for one...

Yes, he can be grey... that adds to his sexy bad boy image... And heck, I love bad boys too!!

But how grey? And where we we draw that line? 😔

Hehe! I think this topic would be easier if we compartmentalized it...

Part A:
Let us all agree that Barun Sobti is dishy, absolutely drool-worthy and fantabulously yummilicious!
He is also a brilliant actor portraying a dark-grey character wonderfully.

It is this Adonis that the teenagers and the young-at-heart women in this forum drool over! Nothing wrong at all there... I'm guilty as charged!

Part B:
The character ASR is a hot-headed, brutal man who has forced Khushi into this marriage and is now treating her terribly. This inhumane behaviour one cannot and must not condone. There are posts in this forum where folks defend his behaviour... and this is NOT cool.

In summary, ok to drool over Barun but please don't defend ASR's boorishness and abuse! 😉

Would love to add this..

Comments on ASR/BS fans thinking capacity and all they can look at his hotness and nothing beyond that, such offensive comments also needs to be toned down..

I have been reading lot of comments on this line, few make immature posts and defend the wrong be it Arnav or Kushi, even Kushi has been defended many times when she was wrong, but does that give us the right to blame a whole fan lot thinking capacity and condemn them??

definitely not!! That is way too offensive..

The character's whom we talk far or againt are reel but the people are real.. How can one pass comment's on their thinking 😆

I was wondering when you would break your silence, finally!!!

And boy am I glad you did. Amazing post...

I have to say that I was one of those who drooled over ASR today, but still I recognized the fact that the CV's are just throwing us a bone because there really is no substance to the story. I guess I just gave in for a moment and enjoyed his scrumptious butt and note worthy biceps, but that doesn't mean he is forgiven. He could be Apollo or Ares and he still would not be forgiven so easily. But what can we do now. Btw, I found one thing shocking today and I wrote it in another thread let me paste it here: "the first thing he did after waking up was go outside to look for his wife...and I was like are u kidding me, do you not see anything wrong in making Khushi sleep outside...it felt like he had accepted that as a fact of his life that for the next six months she would sleep outside and if he needed to check on her thats where he would go." This got in the way of admiring his highness. I came back to earth and realized he still is a jerk.

The CV's have decided to ruin everything, they have decided to say hell with it than I have two choices remaining: say hell with it and continue watching after selling my brains, or stop watching. But I am too addicted with this show to actually stop. The CV's put us loyal fans in a very bad predicament. Even after Khushi went to Gupta's yesterday I dont think any truth will actually be revealed. I tell you we are at a stand still people.

Btw, dont say that about all people in 20s. I am 20 but I would like to think I am more sensible than to just droll over a hot man all day and leave behind my self respect, my ego.

You just said everything I ever wanted to say about ASR and women who said they loved him.

Made me wonder about the self esteem of those women.

Always felt like asking them --- For what? Give me three reasons that can't be---

HIS LOOKS

HIS MONEY

HIS DRESS SENSE

Your last para is EXACTLY what I started to feel from last night (epi-202). I didn't realized it at that time, all I felt was something is wrong in my heart, it doesn't feel the same... just now when I read your last few words I sensed that this is WHAT I FELT.

I'm not at all hyped about holi and I wanted to slap ASR for even considering the fact that he can go and tell his brother to send his wife away.

What does he think he is, a new replacement for God?

How dare he tries to tell another man to leave his wife...and all those women who cried 'why naari is always abla?' in this forum was swooning looking at ASR's face and his smirk, when he was saying this line.

Where were their 'women's lib' sense when it was being shown that A MAN thinks he can decide what is going to happen to a relation of his, in his family even though it involves another man's wife.

Who was ASR to say, he would ask Akash to send Payal home?

Your words feels like a liberation of emotions for me. Everything I felt for these past 9 months.

I got tired of women saying 'I love ASR for whatever he is' and them forgetting everything ASR does due to BARUN SOBTI's looks.

I hope you see this reply because for me every word you said is precious like a legendary treasure I found at last after a long search and wait.

Thank you for your composed words that defined ASR and his vileness that should have never been overlooked.

Thank you.

I've stopped thinking about the characters of this show or even bothering to analyze them. I raised my concern when I first saw domestic abuse and brought to the attention of people who would hear me. However, the domestic abuse continues albeit more subtly and swept under a rug sort of way. I will continue to voice my criticism and appreciation as and when my sensibilities demand and be gladly labeled a basher or a sour-puss if others cannot stomach my opinion.

To tell you the truth, I am beginning to understand that he CVs are pimping ASR's assets to deflect from poor scripting, story and lack of imaginative tracks. And believe me its working. Personally, I do not find conflict in drooling over Barun's assets versus pointing out the obvious domestic abuse by the character ASR. The former appreciates the actor Barun while the latter condemns the character he enacts.

An interesting thought occurred to me the other day. Imagine a forum dominated primarily by males of 13 to 30 age group, drooling unabashedly over a female character, describing every physical aspect of her, posting pictures after pictures of her assets with comments in the same neighborhood of those written for Barun - would we still be so forgiving of that male forum?

I am actually very much at peace - and the sad thing is I agree with many of the points here and have written about character dilution on LM's wall.

The fact of the matter is - if this was a rant against the show - keep it a rant against the show. There is no need to take such a judgemental tone with an entire section of people on this forum and say that they can not see the story for their salivary glands...or are in denial. And I am not the only one who found it so. There are in fact, many other folks who have not commented here because they found it to offensive to comment. But rest assured, it's a forum and part of the what happens here is also communicating the way points should be communicated.

Oops! Sorry! When I said peace, I intended it as a peace offering and nothing else. Again all this because I love reading your posts and was sad to see that you were offended. But there, I'll shut up :)

Good point SJ. Name calling comes to mind. Would the male population be subjected to a few choice names if the roles were reversed? I am willing to take a bet on a definite certainity

woah Smrithi just last night I was laughing with me hubby recaping all the drool posts and the women lib feelings etc.(not to minimize anything)...and he said the very same thing how would a male drool over womens assets go down...I guess what good for the goose is always not good for the gander and the inequality of that is never argued!!!!!!...however I must argued that abuse is gender indifferent so dissecting that ...

you bet!! The entire forum would be shut down because they are obviously pervs who need to remember they have sisters and mothers at home!! This is not directly related to FLS post but I was just pointing out that whats good for the goose is good for the gander. If we can drool so can men. Lets remember that next time we find a male drooling over a female TV character. India forums is mostly populated by women, so there wont be a conflict here ever, but lets remember it when we see men ogling, whistling and dancing with joy when they see a skimpily dressed movie character gyrate on screen.
