Well written and much needed is all I can say! 👍🏼
Yet again, it's just a matter of difference of opinion, MUs & hasty conclusions which are the root cause of all chaos & bashing on Twitter. Most importantly, its how you express your thoughts that can make or break the deal! 😊
I'm sure, all of us are emotional & possessive regarding Shaheer & Somya to some extent. Of course, their onscreen & offscreen chemistry has only added to our feelings for them. But trying to look at things from a broader perspective helps! Shaheer & Somya are not joined at the hip. They are two individuals & lead normal lives like any of us do. They need not be together 24x7 right now, even if they are/not destined to end up together for a lifetime!
A few pearls of wisdom learnt over the years & during my tryst with Navya & NavyaLand vasis that I would like to share with you all :
- Listen/see with an open mind, think, analyse & then react, only if required!
- Reacting is okay. Over reacting is NOT.
- Following/adoring/supporting a celebrity is okay. Blind worship is NOT.
- Constructive criticism of an actor's work is okay. Personal bashing is NOT.
- Hoping & wishful thinking is okay. Demanding & imposing is NOT.
- Showering love & praises is okay. Going overboard is NOT.
- Speculating is okay. Spreading rumours is NOT.
- Believing in speculations is okay. Considering speculations to be the complete & only truth + jumping to conclusions is NOT.
- Making mistakes is okay. Not learning from those mistakes & repeating them is NOT
- Being upfront is okay. Being rude & sarcastic is NOT
- Disagreeing with sumone's POV is okay. Calling names, ridiculing & bashing openly is NOT
- Interaction with celebrities is okay. Interference in personal lives is NOT
Let us try to support both Shaheer & Somya in their new ventures. After all, it is AnYa that introduced us to ShaMya☺️. Of course, now most of us follow SS2 at a personal level too, but, we cannot take away the fact that it is their onscreen characters which captured our hearts! Therefore, it is imperative that we respect their professional decisions. Liking or disliking their work in upcoming shows is subjective & a matter of personal choice. But disapproving their future projects & characters or going completely ga-ga before watching the actual product is unfair!
All said & done, NAVYA will remain special & the only-one-of-its kind show, irrespective of anything/everything! It feels good to revel in the sweet memories & hope for a better tomorrow😊 It definitely helps to move on & live in the present - albeit, with our past memories & future wishes tucked away safely in a corner of our hearts! 😳
Keep the faith & be positive! There is a 'right time' for everything!😛
