Rishabh is shown to be a workaholic business man and Sameer is shown to be incompetent in business hence the ruthlessness towards him and even then it's not like he's hating him for being one, its a spur of the moment kinda thing. If Karan can be rude to his girlfriends, Preeta , Sarla, then Rishabh can be too, especially if its for a business he worked hard to set up. I agree that it is wrong for him to say that, but I havent seen Rishabh being outright rude to him because he did apologize and told him to call him bhai afterwards. It makes Rishabh more flawed and human tbh rather than the perfect guy he's made out to be.
As for opposites attract, yes its a popular trope and has the scope to grow but in the context of desi tv it has been done to death countless times and there is literally no uniqueness in the types of scenes these couples have. I personally don't find any PreeRan scenes unique because I've already seen them in other shows before hand, hence my irritation at the trope. Kekta's own Pratham-Gauri were the epitome of nok-jhok couples and IMO not a single couple can come close to them in regards to that.
Kritika is the only one who gets both of her brothers and AFAIR she doesn't get suspicious of Rishab having feelings for Preeta because she already had thought he was having a thing with Sofia due to comedic elements plus his engagement with Sherlin (which I'm already bothered by anyways🥱)
I'm glad that we're able to have a civil discussion on this.
EXACTLY MY POINT. Rishabh is NOT a perfect character just like Karan. He has his flaws which are overlooked by many because of his soft mannerism in contrast to Karan's outspoken and loud one. Besides, Rishabh doesn't know Preeta as well as Karan does. He is mostly seen mesmerized by her outer beauty and admiring her soberness. He has never seen her stand up for herself or getting defensive or even telling someone off. He has merely always witnessed her in need of help (needing a job, police station, ruby stealing drama) and he was there to save the day for her. She has literally always been the damsel in distress whom he was there to save. Rishabh started getting attracted to Preeta very early on. They also had the dupatta scene, falling in arms, mesmerized, eye-locks scene. But so far, Preeta only holds him in great regards due to the fact that he always came to her rescue in the initial days. I'm not saying he is bad. Not at all. He has the heart to stand up for her against his Bua and prove her innocent. That does get him brownie points and respect. BUT, love isn't even in the ball park. He hardly knows the real Preeta. Her life, her struggles, what she can do and her childish side (which only Karan has seen). None of that. Ekta's most prestigious serial Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi had a similar couple of Tulsi and Mihir. But this kind of couple can only last you for so long. It ended up becoming a saga of the entire family generation after generation COMPLETELY losing its track. In my opinion, Preeta only truly opens up in front of Karan. He will help her grow in confidence as she already has around him and she will help him tame his ego and humble-ize him a bit. When you are of similar nature and personality, there is not much you can learn from the other person. You guys are too much alike to ever discover anything new in each other.
As far as Sameer being an orphan is concerned. I believe that in his introduction week itself, he wasn't really shown to have any parents. Rishabh and Karans' father is his uncle so I believe that he is raised by their family but isn't their own brother. He is Rishabh and Karan's cousin like Kritika but isn't Kareena's son. Besides, Rishabh went out of his way to remind him that he isn't his brother which hurt him. And it is NOT just as a business man. Rishabh is generally very rude to Sameer. He doesn't treat him well in general. On top of that, if Sherlin turns into a out and out vamp, it will fall on Rishabhs' shoulders. I mean, which girl in the entire world would want to be led onto something as serious as an engagement, leading onto marriage and getting it broken off just cuz the man has his eyes on someone else?! Like, that is just as bad as cheating on someone. Sherlin even went to the extent of saying that if Rishabh isn't interested, she rather break it all off. So, if Rishabh is continuing to pursue her for God knows what idiotic reason, whatever she becomes will be on him. That is very immature of him considering he is the mature one. And no girl in the world would like the 'other women' in the equation between her and her would-be future husband. Nobody. So if she ends up hating Preeta, it will be because of Rishabh. This is doing nobody any good fam.
Lets put it this way, if it goes the PreeRan way, it'll be more passionate and love-story focused. If it goes the RishTa way, it'll be more small sober exchanges with lots of family drama. Considering that it is an Ekta Kapoor drama, she can't withhold a sensible story for too long.
