Sorry Jo, for posting late in dear Raj's defence.. my only excuse.. was damn tired and plonked !! Am now back.. in full defence of our dear Mr Snooty Singh, er Lal. 😉
Well, Jo has already said everything there is to say abt Raj..my input is just this. I like Raj for his singlemindedness. He is relentless in his pursuit, for him, ends justify the means. And he goes to any extent to achieve the end. We are now seeing the flip side of this determination, the time will come when we will see this very singlemindedness working in Kranti's favor. This is a big character asset. ( But then again, relentless he maybe, in his villiany, but as Jo pointed, he has his limits. And I give him marks for this too.)
He has his judgement abt things, and he goes by his judgement, however flawed it is.
If he is arrogant, its simply because he knows he is good. And I always have been a sucker for arrogant men...mind you, not overconfident men..arrogance sits well on some.. and it definitely highlights Raj's personality.
My biggest reason for liking him, as Dawn pointed out.. his unblemished record in protecting Kranti. Always.. consistently.. this gives me such a warm feeling. They are loyal to completely opposite causes, yet, he has never blown the whistle on her. Whatever happens between them, remains between them. Neither he, nor she, has ever voiced it to anyone. Brownie points to Kranti too, for this one. But right now, it totally helps Raj in his case to blow Kranti's cover.. and he is not doing it. This shows complete character. ( He has his reasons for keeping things this way, and I dont mind them.)
And finally, he is fixated with Kranti.. what else do i want?
p.s. Feather to the cap, his vehement refusal to marry Lajjo. This guy is something !! 👍🏼
