May be some might have misunderstood her comment... thinking she is same as Madhu who will keep quite for public humiliation and insults from a man she loves... may be some might have even questioned her why she is doing such role... or why she is in this show...
SO she might have expressed her feeling regarding this in JDJ... and proved that is Madhu and this is Drashti... we will love to see a lot onscreen but will never wish everything to happen off-screen... and there is difference between what is shown on Reel and what happens on Real...
And i have no doubt she always give cent percent to us... so kudos to her... đ
Thnx Pennu!! đ
I am saying that because she took the time and effort to address that issue in the very second performance of Jhalak and also because when u r acting day in and day out the same char, and each time you act, you have to, to a certain extent delve into your own feelings to bring about the action and reaction in acting.
If it was a scene like participating in a fight in Mars or robbery or something, that is so totally out of any normal day occurrence to us, she or we can enjoy the scene, she while acting it and we for watching it guilt free.
But, when it comes to tolerating abuse, and playing a continuous victim or catering to abusive man's desires day in and day out and throwing urself at the same abuser ( BTW, I call him abuser because an abuser is defined as someone who keeps kicking u around and then later says sorry or ILU only to come back and kick u again later; and here RK had not even been saying sorry or ILU, while kicking her and still she had to act as she still loves him for a long time; )and show and showcase the same as "true Love" may take a toll on her.
U never know. Otherwise, why spec. Say" Vote for me if u think I am standing for what is right?" or something like that after that particular act? I liked that. It showed that she cared as to what message her show is sending and that she is not standing for it.
After all, if it violence or abuse against women being shown, whether in reel or real, we tend to react more personally, as it might actually happen to us or someone we love in real life and r more conscious of the message we r passing, by supporting it.
And Of course, she will say she loves her job. What else can she say? It is her bread and butter and that is what has given the fame to reach this stage.
But, that does NOT take away from the fact, that the show might be passing a wrong message, and she might not be comfortable with it, promoting abuse and worst, passing it off as true love and a girl giving up herself respect and desiring to belong to a man above all else as showing her true love and a man abusing a woman continuously and justifying it with some reason , but still calling it as true love MIGHT not be palatable to a lot of people who might have seen the kind of true repercussions that might happen to such circumstances in real life.
