Ena!!!!! thanks for the info!!!!! yes!!!!! most must have known the reason here..I didn't know..hence asked u 😆 came to know the general outline reading u r beautiful..short gist😎(as always)

umm!!!! so mom is the reason..what cud be the reason🤔she left him for his own good🤔that is EKta..a mother leaving the son for his own good..some home wpork for the viewers to do on that front..*banging my head*it cud be a strong reason ..perhaps life threateningnow why am i thinking this lot 🤓 when I do not even watch the show..ok..i leave it ..

Ena..perhaps the mother or the gal will bring him back to his senses..saying him to like gals😕aww the guy hates his mom..this deosn't sound well ❓so his parents r divorced!!!!!

Yes the prof gave a PM that she was on her way to some conferences..i think she too was to give a lecture(i suppose)that was some 20 days back..fail to understand why she hasn't left any message😔I do know that she misses her doll greatly..perhaps that also cud be one reason..Ena!!! from u r gist I feel it is the usual love story😆i cud be wrong...first hate and then Love..typical normal love stories!!!!!! let's see how long they can engage the viewers interest😆

Yes Vasu, this is old wine in the new bottle, but seriously, I am not complaining. Its the treatment which makes all the difference, nahi?
Btw, read Chidambram's latest on Pakistan??

Ena! (got ur name from the previous poster😊)

This was a beautifully written post! I come to the forum for this kind of stuff....which makes u roll back to an episode or (more interestingly) to the whole show! Yours fits into the later category!

I loved the way you captured the beauty of the title song! Yups I agree with u and I just simply love the scene where Arjun comes and says Arohi's name in her ears and she laughs! its natural and beautiful!

Now coming to Arjun who has been brought to life by this unknown man called Karan! My first impression of him was like .... he is ok ....not like many of those killer heros introduced by BT..... but two months down the lane I have a differerent opinion! and the credit goes to Karan! his hardwork shows...in almost every frame he is in!

For example, I have no qualms in saying that I did not like the first time he smiled (it was supposed to be a genuine smile) but i found it everything but genuine! but have a look at the dream sequence and where he sees Arohi in the mirror and smiles... just perfect! it captures his happiness at seeing his love..... Karan shows improvements in every episode!.....and that is sooo likable!

and than what I always say.... he is a king of expressions! he has these awesome expressions and he knows the timing of pulling them out!

His character is very well-defined! I love the complexities that are so prominent in his personality! they make him vulnerable.....likable instantly! he is real....he is not someone u only find in fiction... he has his share of frustrations, confusions, problems....he can be awfully wicked at times and sugar sweet at the others....generally human beings are like that! there is a spectrum and the behaviors boomerang on that spectrum! and Arjun is a classic example of such a personality!

In looks well no need to say anything! he is definitely a handsome guy and knows how to carry himself on the screen! the Mr. India training is showing !!!

One last thing....the thing that matters most for me! His voice and the way he speaks.....is just one of the best I have come across tv heroes!

Ena I loved replying to this post and kind of extended my intended word limit! but surely keep posting and I would always love to give my views!!!

Hi Ria, thanks !! 😊 And yes, thats my name (Vasu does that often, in any new forum I join, she gives my name away 😊)
Before I talk about this writeup, let me tell you I absolutely love your daily episode analysis, and I wait for them to come up. Yours are the only ones I read, since they are so detailed and well rounded.
Hmmm... I liked so many things you wrote here as well.. I agree with you, I was not too impressed myself with Karan initially, he looked too forced in many scenes ( that smile one, yes) but he is surely getting much better with every episode. AND, as I said, he looks so very sincere in his role, I am ready to overlook minor foibles. Which are fast disappearing.
His face is a continuous mirror..you are bang on there.. it changes expressions so fluidly.. I love that. Most I love the scowl, followed by what An calls the 'hairan-pareshan' look. The hassled one. Suits him perfectly.
And, Arohi, she brings out the worst and the best in him.. but that discussion needs more room than this post ,to deal with, nahi? 😉
Hope to read more from you.. 😊

Guys!

Leave the show alone,let's first appreciate the beautifully-written post by Ena!...*claps*...

I soo agree with each and everything mentioned abt the title track-it's slow and peaceful,pure,yet passionate in it's own way.The title logo which had both of them lying peacefully,shows the beauty and pureness of the show,even to sum1 who doesn't know abt it.

I would like to be biased here.I really don't have time now,and have to leave for my tutions in just minutes,but couldn't stop posting here,when I read "Arjun".I can't stop talking abt him..hehe..and I'm scared tht this post gonna get a bit long!...hehe...

So..emm...I was certainly not attracted to the character-it's happens really rarely.. when I fall for a person,first,and then the character he plays.I had read abt the show on TB,and had decided wouldn't watch coz sounded like a typical story to me.Ek hi shart thi-if I like the guy.😆..and I fell in love with Karan at the very first sight.He's fair,and seems just like "makhan" to me!..(I love callin him tht..😆)...Emm,just like you,fair guys seem to impress me most of the times-it just happens rarely,and Karan is one of those,"not-s *to be edited*..

Thanks Amina !!! 😊
I have to agree, Karan's complexion is like total makhan.. 😆 Nups and I call him the most flawless, spotless, goru-chiknu we have seen. Well, thatss taking it too far, but thats the shameless truth. 😃

@Ena: Yeah its nice to call people by a shorter name..takes less time and is more friendly! though I love your id too....makes me fresh every time I see it!

Thanks for always appreciating ! It feels good to know people like to read what you are posting! to me its the only way I can calm down a bit after watching an episode! 😆 But seriously, being on this forum since the very first day of the show...I am soo glad to see the growth....and with people like u who make it more fun to read about the show its even better! I just hope BT can keep the show interesting for a longer bit of time so that we can keep enjoying on the forum too!

Yes the "hairan-pareshan" look is just priceless! I am also an ardent fan of that! I also love the scowl! and the scared look too (e.g. when he sees a cockroach, or the knife in Arohi's hands)....

and I would love to read your take on Arohi and the way she has changed Arjun's world! do try to squish it into a post....I am sure you can do that!

keep posting!

Dew,

Beautiful as usual. I love reading your take on episodes and protagonists. For me Arjun the character clicked when I saw him in the prison... completely at peace. Before that I found his range of acting limited but that peaceful face made me rethink. 😊

And, I hate Nupur ki bachi, 😡 ... all thanks to her, for the last two days, I have been watching previous episodes on youtube. But, I enjoyed them ... 😊 but no maafi to Nupur.

@ An- Arre, yeh chamatkaar kab hua? You actually going to all that effort and fishing out OLD episodes !!! Nups deserves a BIGGGG hug from me. 😃
@ Ria- Yes, that frightened look is damn cute too, so is the smirk one. Come to think of it, he looks good in almost all expressions. Barring that artificial smile he tried to give.
And , I'll try to come up with the write-up on Arohi soon. 😊

Hey Dew.......a very well written post!!!! Hats off!!!!
The way you've captured the complexities of Arjun's character his insecurities, his child-like innocence, you just made me fall in love with him all over again.....i agree with you, Karan isin't a very good actor, but his portrayal of the character is so convincing, your heart goes out to him every time he gets those to-die-for expressions on....especially when he's just wistfully staring at Arohi, or he's talking to his Dad.....

And when he speaks about his Mom, my God, you can see his face is all contorted with anger (and grief???)....he looks mad at the world, but his eyes betray him, don't you think???

Pata nai, but I feel that Arjun's character has always been that of a giver....remember how he saves that puppy?? Or helps that ill employee out?? Its always people who misunderstand him though....the guy, though arrogant, is genuinely nice!!!

I really want to see what Arohi does FOR him, when she falls for him.....the backdrop of the story is about all the sacrifices Arjun's made right?? But I really want to see Arohi being there for him when they fall in Love!!!

All i can say is that only Time will tell....but until then, do keep posting such well-written & moving topics, it makes my day when i sit down to reply to such intelligent views......

Cheers!!!

P.S. HAPPY MONDAY!!!

@ Anu- Thats more like it, though my gut feel says that this show would be steady for some while atleast, so we can ogle, drool and fantasise all we like. Till the going is good. 😊
@ Amina- Yes, surely went thru your Karan/ Punji gatha, you come across as a BIGG fan, but you put me in doubt, you are a girl right? Female version of Punji? 😉
@ Asaxena- Thanks !!! And totally agree, Arjun is a giver, but I too want to see what is it that Arohi does for him, and I am sure she will, one threat to him from Rupali, and she went all out to save him like a tigress does her cub. So , I am sure she will more than take good care of him.
