At first I did not want to comment...not because I did not like the post or anything, but because I felt that whatever I would say, won't be deserving of the magic you have woven in this magnificent post of yours. But later I realized that it would be unfair on my part to not let you know how much I loved your tribute. I am really bad with words but I will still try my best :P
Perfection is not flawlessness, it is what triumphs over the flaws and shines through them.IPK is not flawless, never was...but IPK is, was and always will be perfect. Despite of the shortcomings, IPK has made a special place in our hearts. Did those flaws manage to lessen our love for this show? Will it ever? No! This answer comes instantly to us, right? This just shows what a special place IPK has made in our heart...what it truly means to us. So why are we not happy now? Shouldn't we be celebrating this epilogue? How many people are this lucky? Does any other fandom possess this amount of power and control? You have made me realize that I actually don't give a damn about the sloppy writing or the struggling of the actors for a few brief periods of time. I am watching the EJ because I want to see IPK having an ideal closure, I want to enjoy every single moment of IPK, the only show that has managed to make me fall in love with itself. And that is what I am going to do for the last episode...enjoy IPK, enjoy Arshi...without bothering about the technicalities. I don't know how I will react, how I will feel after this Jashn is over. But I know for sure that I will enjoy it. I may be sad now that my favourite show will be over, this beautiful chapter will be closed forever. But then again, IPK is not an ordinary show...it's a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence. I doubt anyone's love for IPK would ever lessen. As you have said already...IPK will always be remembered and cherished.
I thank you for making such a phenomenal and exceptional post...really mean it! I can say, without a second thought, that I agree with you on every single thing you said. We really need to demonstrate this kind of spirit and optimism for the sake of this magical show's closure. I came across this beautiful quote quite recently: "You'll never find a rainbow if you're looking down" (Charlie Chaplin). Just like that, we won't be able to truly celebrate the last episode if we watch it with a critical and scrutinizing mindset. Thank you for making me realize that :)
Hoping that I didn't come across as a pakau and whatever I ranted, wasn't utter rubbish. As Archana di would call it my brahmastra...can I call you di? :P
