Yo all.
Its funny I barely ever make posts but its like this new season change has hit me like fairy dust and suddenly my mind is analyzing everything. 😆 I've literally binged and watched JR twice in the past week and I mean all episode. 😲 (Whoa I've clearly had a lot of free time on my hands. Maybe my fairy godmother will also sprinkle some fairy dust over my assignments to magically complete them 😎)
Anyways so i asked myself what is it about Sid and Roshini that I find so attractive.
The conclusion I came to is how very real they are. As a couple they seem very real to me. They are romantic yes but that's not all a husband and wife relationship is about. In my opinion your partner is ideally also your closest confident. They put you at ease. Their presence, their support cuts your worry into half and increases your happiness tenth folds. You discuss things with them like problems in your family for example and try to come up with solutions together. "Together' being the key word because marriage is companionship and partnership.
I love how they joke around with each other. I love their ramblings. The way Sid talks to himself (This can be seen in the earlier episodes in particular) about appeasing Roshini and DD. Their cutness over all makes them seem like a very real couple. I mean couples don't just steal shy glances at each other and abstain from each other for months at a time. I love that they showed how attracted Sid is to her. How her presence affects him physically as well (Look back to the episode where Roshini wears the yellow net sari after their divorce.)
This isn't something that shows generally show. They over dramatize it and drag it forever or leave it completely to our imagination. I get why as well. I mean our society isn't very open to such PDA. (I'm sure the fake kiss scenes blew the lid of more than a few aunties) I just find it to be a nice change. It makes them seem more real to me.
Another thing I find completely charming is that their characters break stereotypes. Together they show how couples should be and that people like these characters really do exist in real life. They are rare but not nonexistent.
I like that both of them were shown to be from well to do families but their heads weren't stuck in clouds. Instead both of their feet's were planted firmly on the ground. Roshini grew up in a broken home where she was emotionally neglected by her mother but that didn't turn her into an arrogant, careless woman. On the contrary she turned out to be a compassionate young woman who understands and values things that truly matter in life (Lets leave the S2 Roshini and credit her behavior to psychological trauma for now) Many people use their past to justify them being jerks. Really your circumstances don't make you a jerk. Its a choice.
On the other hand Sid grew up in a perfect environment but he didn't turn into a spoiled angry young man. His character shows that wealth doesn't turn kids into brats. It shows how much the attention of parents and a child's upbringing can effect their personality. All the stupid things Simiran did aside she and Raj did well in terms of Sid's upbringing. Also that being rich doesn't the person is devoid of all values and emotions. Not everyone is the same. I also love how is shown to be the emotionally mature one in the relationship. I like how he accepted Roshini's family as his own. A marriage, every relationship in fact is a two way street. I loved how he didn't think of any work as too small and his over all positivity. Guys like this do exist and honestly guys should have some of these attributes. It makes life easy for both parties.
Another part that I loved is that Roshini's character wasn't of a typical girl. (Esp not a typical soap opera character ) She is shown to be emotionally immature. Her thinking is shown to be flawed from the beginning. (not marrying a rich guy for one ) She didn't know how to cook. The girl had heaps of resentment and hurt embedded in her heart for her own mother as well as longing to be loved by her. None of this deters her from trying though. She never backed down from a challenge just because she didn't know how to do it. I think this is an imperative point. It's fine if you don't know how to do housework or cook but nothing should deter you from learning it. It's life skill and doesn't make females less in anyway. She stood silent when needed. Spoke up when required. I like that she was open about her emotions and didn't keep everything bolted up inside. Not every girl comes programed with an unlimited storage supple and extra strong capacity chip.
Whew. I think I'm done for today. Sorry I kinda got carried away. 😆
(If only my Profs could mark this analyzation. I practically wrote a mini essay here :D)
