JZee That.Was.Fantastic.😃
How do you manage to write so eloquently? Take a bow girl..👏👏
You have penned down Anant's dilemma, his state of mind so well..
I had always wondered if Anant questioned himself seeing Navya doing so well with the while "ignoring thing" and you were bang on with this..He knows its hurting her like hell but still her resolve was stronger than his somehow..
Loved how he did not want to have any negative emotion associated with navya's memory..His remembrance of their times together was written so beautifully..❤️
Loved the dig with Shagun ie. her name wasn't synonymous with the effect she had on Anant's life..
Loved the ending the best..Anant's questions are so similar to our questions, aren't they? The car scene made it quite clear that Anant was ready to fight but Navya's reaction was a damper.. Why did she give up so easily? As you put it "she hadn't even deemed the cause worth a fight in the first place. Did I mean so little to her? Did 'we' mean so little… I had brand new questions, to ask the same old things."
Once again, beautifully written and I urge you to keep writing these drabbles..You will rectify everything the CV's messed up, or missed, beautifully and in the process provide us with a creative literary treat!😛

Hey girl!


Thanks for the pm or else I would have missed this!


I'll try n keep it short.

If I could just start by saying...you write beautifully...it would be an understatement already. Im a psychology student, I've the trained keeda(worm) in me to analyse dissect heads and keep looking for life in the shreds! I loved every word u wrote, devoured it...amazed with it!


Forget about what you wrote here n always do. I just want to let you know that you have an ability very few do, a method to reach hearts and convince them whichever way you wish to, a command n flow on language people will just sit n envy and a way with words only gifted ones posess! You would think Im just sitting here with Miss Flattery! Nope..I mean every word. Maybe in future, when you get some time to think ...a good subject...a thought or a concept...you should write a book. I promise you, I would be one of the first ones to read it. Im not kidding.


Anant n Navya are just characters..technically dull n boring ones considering they are a part of a soap which tries to cater to all age groups in an indian audience. The story along with the integrity of the characters goes up n down most of the times. But, look at what you've done! You've brought them to life! You've managed to convince me in your drabble that Anant is alive..living somewhere close to you, he shares every bit of his life with you and tells you everything! At times...I thought he was you!!! You've managed to pen down all his emotions and turmoils so easily and profoundly...like you are living them. Not an easy job I say! Not at all!


About what you wrote...3 things I loved the most..

I wanted to return to a flash back of a rare, arbitrary memory of her soft laughter, and revel in the wonderful feeling of freedom and fondness that evoked in me. I wanted to think of the times we had come close. Lose myself to that heady, mesmerized feeling, have my breath hitched somewhere on its way up, just remembering the abandon of restrain that exhilaration afforded me, an unprecedented, progressive high, each time'

^You had me in these lines. Every word is delicious! Yep, romantic I am...I guess whoever you find here on the forum are hopelessly in love with love! Needless to say they all are waiting for the moment when Anant says I Love You. 😛

Foolishly, I looked up, to instantly drop my eyes firmly back to the food on my plate ' which was when I noticed it had remained untouched. I set right off to correct this minor matter at least ' taking a spoonful of the curry, plucking off a tidy bite from the chapatti, framing a scoop of it to plug into the dry bhajiyaa and stuffing that into my mouth too. Funny how effective routine tasks were engaging, even momentarily distracting, when you really concentrated. For it wasn't every day you took the care to make the scoop of your bite geometrically symmetrical, right?! I was three bites down, and the focus paid off ' I could sense the tension diffusing, and I had not thought about my many troubles for a record 120 seconds, give or take ten.

^These lines tell me how much you think..you feel the pulse n dissolve yourself in the character! If I was Anant, I would experience this as you have narrated, word by word...even the most routine task, given the frame of mind I was in. So...Beautiful again!


To the most crucial matter of my life' and to a decision as taken by them that I saw no sense in, whatsoever! Perhaps they had hence realized I needed space, and time.

Or just perhaps, rebelling wasn't so hard, or so impossible. Perhaps sometimes, when you were dire, your assertion became evident, and those at its receiving end figured there was nothing to change about it.

Could that be? Was Mohan bhaiya right? Had I given up without a fight? If my answer was yes, why was it?

^I loved the sudden natural realisation which came from nowhere or somewhere.."maybe rebelling wasn't so hard!" I loved the build up to it. I know we come up with different solutions and realisations for many ongoing issues in our life in a sudden snap, like coming out of a tunnel and suddenly seeing light..wondering how we didnt realise it though it was always there..waiting to be realised! I precisely how Anant might realise that he cannot do with Navz anymore...its these small incidents leading to the final decision...Its her and I cannot let go of her, no way.


Dont have more time, wanted to write more,will do so as n when I get time I promise. My neice is pulling my laptop n wants to tap the keys. Have to go..

Im a fan already. Do keep writing...always, not just here, anywhere else as well. Write for yourself or others...but write. Keep up the grand work! Taaliyaaan again 👏

luv

Sonia

Hey dear!!!
Your writing is sooo awesome and mesmerising. I am a newbie on this forum or for the matter of fact-this is my maiden forum. I will not say that I am a silent member...I do give my views to some topics which I strongly feel about or whenever I come across some exceptionally beautiful writings like this one. Congrats for such a superb piece of writing. Would request you to continue with this writing. I would love to have such writing ability. I have already become a fan of your writing.😊. Lately even I wanted to post a new topic on this forum but seeing such beautiful writings I don't get the confidence that my most would turn out to be so remarkable as yours or a few other members who are superb writers.

😊 Hi Zeee...sorry for the late reply but was speechless after going thru ur post...so beautifully written...wish u were one of the cvs ...u have put down so many lovely emotions of ananth...mohan ...wish we cud see them actually saying these to themselves in their mind...
its been long since ...while watching the scene where mohan tells ananth to be careful n think welll before taking a decision i wanted ananth to analyse his bro-bhabhi relationship when alone n realise what u have penned down so beautifully...here as ...
Shortly before, the elder and sadly sidelined Bajpayee heir, my brother Mohan – who made such a habit of talking in monosyllables that you wondered if the sound of his own voice didn't surprise him once in a while – had actually verbalized his disappointment. Heck he'd been angry at me if anyone had ever wondered whether he was even capable of such emotion,
n i wanted Ananth to just realise why his adorable bro was so tongue-tied...n visualise for himself how henpecked n burdened his life in future wud be with apshagun... these wud have been better than seeing those banaraswali scenes...the above sentences alone wud have made a beautiful episode ...i just wud have loved to see ananth going thru these emotions but sad that the cvs dont think of such things n torture us with CSB, hari om prabhuji n banaraswali scenes...
He had smiled me up and down, There was a distinct I-know-what-you're-upto air about his manner, I could sense, even as I vainly consoled myself by putting it down as the doing of my own guilty conscience.
as abt CBS, i hate it when he sneers at ananth n looks at him up n down as if he has done a big sin...so much for being a loving grandfather...cant even imagine grandpas being so mean...they r the best in reality...n zee... uve put ananth's heart inside out with these lines...
I wanted to be happy thinking about her. I wanted to return to a flash back of a rare, arbitrary memory of her soft laughter, and revel in the wonderful feeling of freedom and fondness that evoked in me. I wanted to think of the times we had come close. Lose myself to that heady, mesmerized feeling, have my breath hitched somewhere on its way up, just remembering the abandon of restrain that exhilaration afforded me, an unprecedented, progressive high, each time…
CVS...pls hire ZEE on ur team, shes got the heart n pulse of the audience n pours it all out so well...n brings out the essence of this innocent AnYa love story so well...zee...a big hug to u for this para...Instead, I found myself thinking of the sight of her vulnerable, accusing eyes on the bus back from the picnic; CZee...after this post im going back to AnYa scenes on YT n loooking at them thru ur eyes...loved this line especially...
Zee...even the CVS will be knocked out reading this...
It was all utterly, miserably futile. Until I had her word. She hadn't assured me. She hadn't shown resolve to strive for this thing we had… on the contrary, she had expressed her personal regret in being thoughtless, and her resolve, if any, was only to flush this unwanted disruption out of her system. Well she could wish. I'd been there, done that, and now it wasn't my position to deny her the chance to follow the book to correct our situation, but I could ask her – I had asked her – if she really believed there was riddance of it for good? There wasn't, damnit, ask me! Hadn't I been striving to accomplish the same, right up to the point where she stepped into my shoes and took over – and our roles reversed?
Zee...as abut the absagun part...i hate that character so much that i just dont like to comment or waste time on her though u have put it all so welll...
to end my take...i just cant stop reading n reading the following lines of urs...
Was Mohan bhaiya right? Had I given up without a fight? If my answer was yes, why was it?

It was her. She had given up without a fight – she hadn't even deemed the cause worth a fight in the first place. Did I mean so little to her? Did 'we' mean so little… I had brand new questions, to ask the same old things.

what u said above was so right till yesday...but yesday after seeing navya going to the extent of taking the risk of going to his house n calling his bro...i have a feeling she will do it all...n wish ananth knows the exent of pain n tension she went thru when he was ill n unconscious...n sick sagun, all bother abt the roka n praying god to give ananth back some of his fever after the roka...how disgusting...ananth u need to know how navya was when u were down...n zee, wish i cud see ur drabble on that...from ur point...

whatever it is, u r just awesome n i cant help myself from scrolling to the top n reading n reflecting each point visualing the same...though im short of time...to end a big hug n 👏👏👏👏 for such a lovely n mindblowing post after a dull n painful week...

Jzee, Thank you for your PM😊, or else I would have missed such a beautiful peice of art...
I was as if fan of your writing but now after reading this I am in love with your writing.😳
The way you pour life into characters and make them breathe is just amazing.👏
I had also felt somethings that you talked about but the way you pen them is just mesmerizing, I am speechless. 👏
Everysingle word that you said touched my heart, I had goosebumps to be true..😳.
All the scenes of Navya that you described started floating in front of my eyes,( as i have seen them over and over again) and I started picturing them with your words and emotions, and the scenes got a whole new meaning to it...
Anants dilemma, Mohan's henpeckedness, Navya's strength( so called strength), Navya's pain, Shagun and Ramas plan, CSB's mean smile everything is so beautifully expressed. Belive me it shed light to a different persceptive altogether, that even CV's didnt think was important.( I would love to comment on each individual situation , rather than just listing them..but I am not sure if I can add omething to this beautiful work... so I'll have to think about it.. a lot... I'll add something later, only if I feel it is worth being added to your work)
I loved everysingle word of it... ONE thing that I would have loved to read in this situation is the contradiction or question that goes theu his mind ,when he thinks about, his strength in rebellling against Nimi's early engagement. his fearless attitude and his courage to confront csb in opposition to his silent submissal when it happened to himself. What was different? Why cant he take a stand for himself? These are the questions that he could also think of and probably you can shed your own light to it, I'll love to read your analysis.
The last para.. it just took my heart away and made my eyes moist.. yes I am very romantic as most of us here and I am too emotional also, but I have also gone thru a heart break( still recoping to be ture) and that last words just shook me again...
She had given up without a fight – she hadn't even deemed the cause worth a fight in the first place. Did I mean so little to her? Did 'we' mean so little… I had brand new questions, to ask the same old things
The pain that this lines carry is unbearable, I have felt it, I hav asked this question again and agian , but had failed to get any answer...I just wish and I tihnk its going to happen, that Anant gets his answer...Navya is ready to fight...and that is for better.
I want to write more, or not..i do not know😕.. what can I write or comment to your writing ,you are just awesome😃, and I have gone speechless...my heart is beating so fast, I cant even tell you that...
I'll have to stop here, or else i'll just keep rambling...
I have said it enough but i'll say it again..I love your wiritng..👏👏⭐️..
Please write more and more, and let me know, as I dont want to miss such a great work...
Please wirte more drabbles... I am eagerly waiitng to read it...
You are awesome...You rock⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️...
Thank you
P.S...I just entered my work and had a lot to do as usual, but I checked my PM just to see who it was, it was you... and I couldnt stop myself from going to the post you talked about..thinking lets see what it is, I'll read it and say that I am at work will reply later,
but as you can see..your writing was so magical I kept reading it again and agin and also couldn't not stop replying...
I need to get myself together for the meeting in 30 mins now..or I'll be in trouble...

Hey JZee,
I am totally in awe 👏, with your lovely piece of art. Gosh! one of the best way to explain Anant's Dilemma, I should say! You've made literature for me even more easy to understand. We, students, after reading a poem, are always told to explain the poem in our own words and bring out the essence of it, And NOT paraphrase it...And that is what you have taught me, actually, with your explicitly wonderful thoughts, emotions...all captured in these wonderful Philosophical, but Encapsulating poetic words. 😍
Ah! How I love to read every piece of work by you! Really soothes my mind, and also teaches me to think even more broadly...to have a wilder imagination 😍!! An Imagination so pure, so perfect, so huge that is found, usually, while reading the beautiful, empowering, and Romantic poems, stories, short stories...all works of Literature by our Beloved, most Appreciated Romantic poets and authors.
How I love to just go on and on about your Awesome, Fabulous, pieces of work...but am out of words really!! Guess I'll have refer to the dictionary next time, while I comment! 😉
P.S.: What about your FF - Shakespeare In Love? When will you be continuing it? Do let all of us know! 😃
Regards
Annie 😊

Thanks for the post and the msg JZee!

I felt that your post filled a big void I felt when I watched the last few episodes... I had really wanted some scenes where Anant spoke out his thoughts - he has gone through a big transformation from being the "good" boy to discovering a totally unexpected side to him... The 3 scenes where he did speak to Navya about his feelings were fine but I was looking for more I guess... Your post is very satisfying to read because it goes through Anant's feelings the way I wanted to... He has suddenly grown up, his life is no longer simple and he has battles on his hand which he never ever imagined he would have... I felt that cvs should have dwelt on his dilemma with a lot more punch... Would've loved to see your writing enacted on-screen...

Makes me wonder, if there was no Navya, would he have accepted Shagun?

Thanks for giving us a bright spark - I have almost given up hope of seeing nayi soch in the serial, at least the forum is giving me the food for thought I crave!

Keep writing!
