Hi guys,
I know that perhaps nobody will agree with me on this issue but this is one place where I can put my views freely.
I loved the IQ-Neha interview on SBS but now, looking back I feel that the question of Rakhi-tieing posed to the two was actually in very bad taste.
Rakhi is such a pure and innocent bond of brother-sister, a pious relationship that a boy and a girl share either by birth or by promise, right? Now, you are posing this situation to two such people, who have played quite intimate lovers on-screen and continue to do so....marriage, consummation, babies and stuff.
Guys, I agree that there is a whole lot of diffference between reel and real life but at points such as these, the line blurs....I mean, come on...you would raise hue and cry if actually brother-sister are asked to play lovers on-screen, won't you? Then, how am I supposed to be comfy with the fact that two on-screen lovers are even posed such a question?
Perhaps, I am overreacting, over-exaggerating, being too judgemental but going by the sanctity of relationships, this question posed to IQ-Neha was in bad taste....you can't make a joke out of everything and I have seen in real-life......Rakhi is often made a joke by boys and girls.
Rakhi is pious.It really is.Now, shoot me if you like.
No, I am not dragging IQ-Neha into the Angad-Kripa garb...I would say the same thing if this question was posed to any damn on-screen love couple.
I have seen on-screen brothers and sisters getting married in real life but that is still okay(Om-Cchaya of KGGK), though am not okay with a girl tying rakhi to a guy on-screen and dating him off-screen, fine date him but please ask the director to get a life if he asks you to tie a rakhi to him...say, what if Suvarna and Amit were dating? I wouldn't have any problem as long as her character Mishty doesn't tie a Rakhi to Amit's character Amit! But since they are not seeing each-other, Mishty can tie a Rakhi to Prithvi.đ.....but asking about rakhis to two people who have played passionate lovers and got all mushy-mushy-mushy on-screen is actually something else.
