inspiration to come out of the most humilating and traumatic experience
of my love. I liked JJKN from the very beginning and the reason was Jassi
and her attraction to her boss, an impossible relationship at the time 🤓
Most girls would relate to her, a defense mechansim called introjection.
But then I fell in love with Armaan. Armaan was in the boardroom with
Jassi presenting the false balance sheets to everyone and Armaan loosing
everything he had in a single sweep of fate, his family buisness, his
family's trust, money, power, his honor, face (a very Eastern concept), and
above all his love, a love which was so longed for but was sadly
misconstrued. I had been through a bad marraige, was going through a
very hostile separation that subsequently ended in an equally hostile
divorce. That was the time when I needed support and there was none
coming forth. My family was in India and I was all alone in a strange
country. All the friends that I had were my ex's and they left with him. I
had also lost it all and the only thing that was familiar was JJKN And there
in JJKN was Armaan going through the worst phase of his life. After
having lost all that he ever had, there he was yearning for his love, the
Devdas Armaan, then the Armaan who gets a hold over himself and the
Armaan struggling to establish his lost credibility. It was all that I was
going through. To begin with it was inspiration, then I bonded with
Armaan and it was this character that kept me sane. I would just rewind
and keep on watching JJKN just to keep from thinking. It is not an
exaggeration. Anyday that I was at home doing nothing, I would just keep
rewinding JJKN and watch it the whole day. And I would just like to thank
Apurva for playing the role so well that I could relate to it and it made me
face each day that brought a new problem with it. It was a fixation, but
whatever, it kept me from getting depressed. Not once in the one and
half year did I feel depressed. There were ups and downs, but no
depression. I'm a die hard fan of SRK, but its AA that I love. The fixation is
gone, but I simply love him. He has been a lifeline and he wouldn't even
know what his portrayal of Armaan has done for me 😊
