I agree with you Ahaana 😃

Gunjan -
Well, we have seen a LOT of growth in this character. She was such a shy and reserved girl initially but now she has turned a bit loud (in a good way). This character hardly used to interact with anybody but Nupur and rarely Samrat. After SaJan's patch up i.e on the valentines night, Gunjan became a bit more open with her feelings.. She started interacting with everybody, especially Samrat 😳 and became more confident.
My take on the character growth of Gunjan- Gunjan has had a lot of growth in her character. I liked the old Gunjan more but this Gunjan is also nice. At first I found her character quite unrealistic yet charming and sweet but now I can relate her to myself. Now her character has become quite realistic but the charm and sweetness remains the same 😃


Samrat -
Samrat has also had a lot of growth in his character. From a cool dude, a stud, a prankster, he has become a one-woman-man 😳 . He has turned a lot more mature now. Nowadays no girl line marofies on him 😆 He is completely lost in Chashmish land now 😛 Initially, he was a basket ball star who was always shown in the BB court but now he is hardly practicing. But nevertheless, I like the character growth.
My take on the character growth of Samrat - I really adored the old prankster Samrat. He used to so bubbly in nature! But now the growth in his character has turned him a lot more mature. I am not saying it's bad but I really miss the old hunk Samrat. But I really liked one thing about this new Samrat that he is a lot more compatible with Mayank. I love this SaYank bonding! (Mohit has improved leaps and bounds in acting 😃 )

Interesting discussion post, Aahana ... hope it stays peaceful 😉

I can spend more time discussing Samrat and Gunjan because I find them the most interesting characters (no surprises there 😉) in terms of how there is so much contrast between what they show to the world, and what they are inside - always fascinating for me.

Samrat first appealed to me when those hidden facets were first shown glimpses of ... his missing parents, his loneliness in spite of being surrounded by friends and loved by girls, his fierce loyalty to anyone he called a friend. His character development has been probably the best of the lot ... it's been slow and steady, with no major character deviations ... from a don't-care, egoistic cool dude (though with a heart of gold) he has developed into a caring, committed and much more mature character, who will go completely all out for his friends, and who is deeply in love with a girl who is his soulmate in almost all ways. He has changed both because of his feelings for Gunjan, and because of the kind of person she is ... he was always good to his friends, but initially he was uncaring of the feelings of others who were not in his circle - the way he teased Gunjan at the start being one example. Slowly as he has matured, he has learned from her to understand and appreciate the feelings of others, and that is the biggest plus point of his character development. And of course, the best part has been the change from cool dude casanova to a very caring, completely committed and deeply in love boyfriend. The last of his demons - his marriage doubts - are still left, although he has committed to marrying Gunjan, but because she wants it, not because he believes in it - and hopefully this track will see further development in this aspect of their story.

Gunjan - again, I could write reams on her character, not only during the show, but before it - what made her such a shy, timid person in the first place, scared of her own shadow, in spite of being so bright and intelligent. being overshadowed almost constantly by a dominating, vivacious and extremely popular older sister, being plain and spectacled (at least I think she's supposed to be plain - Sanaya makes that difficult to believe 😉), being motherless from a young age and being brought up by a traditional, conservative aunt like Bui - all those would have shaped her into the timid girl we saw at the start of the show. I can almost imagine Bui saying - Nupur is so pretty and so popular, but who will marry a plain, chashmevali girl like my poor Gunjan - thereby killing her self-esteem completely - because women like Bui think there is only one career for a girl.
And yet she has managed to retain an inner strength, a stubbornness, and this has started surfacing more and more as her character developed - first the TP, then the RJ hunt, then organising the music for the play, dancing on stage - the public performances that she was so petrified of, come easy to her now. And the confidence to express herself - her confidence started when she and Samrat became friends, at first he didn't even want to acknowledge her in front of his friends, but once he did, her confidence grew as well. It took a beating again during Sheena, then grew during the jail track when she supported Samrat - after the first day, she did not shed a single tear again. Post confession there has been a lot of growth as her trust and confidence in her relationship has grown, she has grown as a person as well - she is no longer ready to listen all the time - she was the only person to say that the gang might not be correct in their treatment of Adhiraj, when Mayank returned from B'lore, and had the misunderstanding with Nups, she ticked him off, she has always told Samrat when he has gone wrong, and she even had the confidence to stand up to Nupur when she felt Nupur was wrong in misunderstanding Samrat - which is something she had never done before. After the paralysis recovery track, she seems to have lost most of her insecurities about not being good enough for Samrat ... whether this new track will be about her remaining insecuritites, or Samrat's marriage and family phobia, I'm still not sure. But I'm looking forward to it!

Dia is another person who has shown growth as a character - from being a fairly shallow, vain diva with hangers-on like Annie and Chacko, she has grown into a sensible, affectionate sister and good friend, while she still retains her 'cool' attitude. The RV track did a lot to develop her nicer traits.

Uday has shown some development recently - although he's always a clown, but his concern for his sisters has become very genuine and sweet - be it for Dia during RV, for Gunjan with his determination to help her recovery, and for Nupur, which always backfires!!!

Mayank and Nupur I will leave to their resident experts - except that I rather like the way Mayank has become more a part of the gang and less of a loner, and the way he treats Samrat and Gunjan as equals, but still can petrify Uday and Benji with one look! I more or less agree with Divya on Mayank - but not on Nupur ... sorry, Divya 😉

thx a lot everyone for the wonderful replies 😊 will reply to u'll in a couple have some work
😳

well i think that each and every character has grown overcoming their fear , anticipation , overconfident, selfsteem ( a lill bit too much) etc.etc

@Ragz

thx a lot doll yup agree weekends just dont rock with no mjht

next of course i agree thr r highs and lows everywhere even in our lives so why not in a show?

def the baby track was the dumbest track ever !!! no 2 ways abt it i still am at a loss for why did they have it 😕

but yes seems like the new team watched the epi's from b4 as we are seeing the characters def going back to the way they were and shd be with a growth now

on ur character takes :

Sam 😳 : yes amazingly amidst so many butchering we were lucky to still have Sam as he was and getting better like u said. from the ladies man to the most committed BF who's so supportive

thou i hated the scene 🤢 i'd still use it as a ref that in his urgh !! scene with tanaaz - never for a sec did we see Sam deviate - he may have had his actions seem otherwise - but his heart was in it's place - hence he asked those ques , asked her to stop feeling his back and yes said it depends on him - if a gal can turn him on - in other words - nope - now he belongs to only & only his chashmish - mind , body & soul with his heart 😳 i am sure he would have not kissed her even w/o benji's aid

Gunjan : i agree hon she has come a long way - love can do miracles - and yes it so befits her - the love of her life - changed her from head to toe - for the better yet let her remain the same - 😳

next hon her date clothes - they were pretty - yes not her - but then she said she wished to do something spl 4 Sam and hence for the 1st time dolled up for him - and i think it's ok

it was so that he could see how much this date means to her as well - that she was putting as much efforts for it as he was 😳

Mayu : true - i think somehow SaNu made MaJan a lot better - their extroverted personas brought out their partners out of their shells too.

now the once recluse Mayank Sharma has friends - smiles much more , yes has become expressive but now with some softness to him . for him as well i think we have seen a radical growth and i think his most caring side was actually seen in the baby track - where not only he played daddy to the T for princess - but he could have the nerve to say fine i m her dad - and caring takes her away in his arms

Nups : true her role hasnt allowed her to grow but i think this neil guy will do it .. may be ... as on fri we saw a sober nups with crushed hopes and dreams settling to reality

may be her dreams being unfulfilled will make her grow - as at times crushed dreams can be a cruel yet necessary wake up call

abt dodo dia and benji - may be now with BeNia happening - they'd also grow but yes dia does deserve credit for changing her ways 😳 that for me is beautiful

i ahte weekends too...awesum topiuc ahaana......and rightly said,the chreacter of MJHT had seen a massive growth......may it be
mayank-who went from a non-beliver to a beliver,learned to love
nupur-who finally became smarter,ill prefer to say she grew out fro her dreams to reality
gunjan-who changed the least accoring to me.....shes still preety much the same
samrat-became more responsible,more mature,thanks to gunjan
not to mention dia-who became more somber more sweet leaving her bitchy avatar behind...

thx shruti yes they all have come a long way indeed 😊

@ Ayesha

hon Gunjan def has been changed for the good - her reserved ways are gone for good now
she' no longer the shy timid gal - she could even stand up to mayank for her di - w/o even raising her voice once. so yes they retained her essence making her better

Sam - yup Mohit has grown leaps & bounds - as has Sam - whose bonding with Mayu is def a perk now

i think he has now matured for good - u know being alone all his life - all he wanted was love and care from someone - someone to call his own and who could anchor his lost ship - in her he so found that and much more - how can he now possibly want to even look at any other gal - yes his pranky ways are gone - but i think - it's good - one cant always be a prankster

Nups - def with all her filmy ways and funny acts with sometimes the most hilarious one liners is truly a very amazing real character she's a livewire and honestly i love her scenes with Sam - they def can bring down a house - ahh wish we have a SaNu scene soon

Mayu - he too like Gunji has came out of his shell - looking at a world beyong books and yes learned to make friends thx 2 nups and yes i think we'd see him back now - but yup i dont want his growth to go away - thou as focussed as b4 - i want him to be the friendly guy too who can manage - his ambitions along with his friendships - u know a diff personal and professional life type of thing

lets see now how things shape up as i think this Neil will rock quite a few boats for both SaJan and MayUr
