Hey guys, there are many topics on this forum where people are arguing about who Prerna looks better with: Bajaj or Anurag. Well, what I think is this:
I feel that Shweta and Ronit get along better in real life than Shweta and Cezanne (apparently Cezzanne doesn't get along with any of his female co-stars, e.g. Komo and Aparna). Therefore, Shweta-Ronit's offscreen comfortableness translates as on-screen chemistry (if you watch B-P fight scenes or love scenes, you can see how well the two actors play off each other's emotions and this makes for great viewing)--which is why (in my opinion) Ekta Aunty has decided in recent years to bring B-P closer.
Now, we all know that Shweta really doesn't get along with Cezzane, she has mentioned many times in interviews that she doesn't like him...so, not only has Ekta reduced their number of "love" scenes, but also any scenes which require physical contact, perhaps because their off-screen relationship translates into awkwardness on-screen. Now I know that a good actor can always hides their true emotions and/or feelings towards co-actors, and that is why, after Pre loses her memory (after the B-P accident), they show some Anu-Pre love scenes. However, to me those looked really uncomfortable and contrived, whereas the B-P scenes ALWAYS look natural and electrifying.
Early when the show was just beginning--presumably when Shweta-Cezzanne got along--THEN Anu-Pre scenes were fabulous, but now they even make ME feel awkward, which shouldn't be happening(!)
So, in conclusion (!) what I feel is that due to the real-life relationships of these people, the reel-life ones have had to be changed and/or have influenced the way these actors work.
P.S. No bloodbaths, please...I welcome healthy criticisms but I am not looking to start a fight...keep it clean, people!😉
