Mehra lacks Spark and Charisma - Page 2

My issue is not about widows remarrying. I think it is absolutely imperative to see that even widows have the right to remarry and build their lives again, should they so wish. My issue is that Parvati herself has NEVER WANTED THAT. If a woman has the choice to remarry after her husband's death, then surely she should have the choice to NOT remarry? I think it is refreshing to see a female protagonist who doesn't need the active presence of a man beside her, in order for her life to function. I think it is great to see that a woman can love her husband long after he has gone - just because she doesn't want to remarry, it doesn't mean that she is being forced into regression. In fact, THAT is far more empowering than simply remarrying to show our "modern" and liberal sensibilities. I am all for widows remarrying, but I am more inclined towards a woman's right to CHOOSE whether or not she wishes to go down that path.

Generally though, I agree that Mehra's character is lacklustre, though that is not so much to do with the actor, but with the characterisation itself. If Ekta had kept Suyash's character to what it was when he entered, even Anoop Soni could have lived up to that. I have no sympathy for and no inclination to see a crying, moping Devdas who has no fire and strength of character.

I agree Vasu, it should be her choice, it should be as she wants, but the choice should be available for her.

👏👏👏 Totally agree with every word u say Vasu(except the last line,😳 I'll come to that)...😃 ur absolutely right.😃 I really love Suyash...😃 but even I've often said this...😃 if they are to show Parvati-Suyash 2gether, its gotta be shown as completely Parvati's choice...😃 not just coz they wanna show a widow getting remarried or anything or to show that she needs a man to be strong... I absolutely love Janki,😃 love the way she is now... 😃a powerhouse, strong, dynamic, independant, single woman.👏 And if she doesn't want to remarry, so be it, I'm fine with it. 😃Also agree totally that Suyash's character has changed completely since the time he was introduced...😃 loved him then and love him now too...😃 and I think Anoop has done complete justice to the role...👏👏👏 ummm...😳 don't agree with only ur last sentence... 😳true, Suyash keeps silent all the time... but for me, that's a sign of his character's strength rather than weakness... 😃he barely even feels the hurt of what Parvati tells him coz his love for her is strong enough to ride out everything without saying a word to her or clearing up any of her misunderstandings about him...😃 but yes, agree with every other word u've said... 👏its gotta be Parvati's choice... would love it even if Parvati-Suyash were just shown to be the best friends they were...😃 anything that makes Parvati happy is good enough for me...😃She rocks as a beautiful, strong, single woman and I'm all for it!!!👏👏👏

Ok, 'Contest Time'....Count the no. of smilies used in the above quoted post, especially '😃' ones.

😆😆 just kidding, ya i do agree with wat u said about suyash, its not that he cant give it back to parvati whenever she insults him, its just that he chooses not to as his respect for her is far too high, that he cant and doesnt want to retaliate to her abuse. Nevertheless, Janki is not like prerna who screams, shouts and abuses ppl according to her convenience and her perceptions, and thinks that she is the only 'right' one around, and the entire world can be wrong anytime! So, however she is, I love Janki 😃!

Nowadays Suyash doesn't have anything to do on the show, except some scenes where he helpes Parvati.

😆😆😆 Hi dewdrop~pearl. 😊Well, I'm happy to announce that ur the Contest Winner...😃 no one else seems to have counted...😆 Congratulations yaar... 👍🏼😆😆no, jokes apart,😃 I really think that Suyash doesn't retaliate coz he knows that Parvati is just under a misunderstanding... and well, I don't watch Kasauti so no clue about Prerna...😉but totally agree with u, Janki would never unnecessarily scream and shout at anyone just to prove she is right or try to be 'mahaan' or anything.😃 In fact, she is shown to be such a sweet and innocent person, 😳that she can forgive even someone like Shruti... Shruti said one sorry and Parvati has forgiven her... 😳she never holds grudges...😃 and yeah, I totally love Janki too...🤗 she rocks!!!👏👏👏

Thanks Kaashnee...😳

u could'nt have written better Winner13
i fully agree with what u have written 😊
if Suyash was a weak character he would have told parvati everything the first time they met after the leap and spoiled the whole thing
It takes lots of courage and integrity to do what Suyash did for parvati without expecting anything in return 👏 👏
this selfless support, love and devotion should be appreciated

Very well said I totally agree with you yaar👏 👏, I personally feel Mehra's character lost its charm since Monish behl left the show. He was rocking when Monish played it, and yes the characteristion has totally been distorted from the original concept. The character itself is not appealing and gripping enough as it was before.
