Maximum people here have started watching the show post leap.shiva was a character that attracted many people including me.
He had a certain depth in his character.was he flawed? Definitely yes. But I have always liked flawed characters better than complete whitewashed characters.
As for supporting the characters is concerned.
People here have had very diverse opinions on the characters, especially in the current track.
Raavi was called out for her mistakes.
Shiva was called out for his mistakes as well.
Dhara was called out during the danda kaand.
Gombi was called out for hitting shiva.
Dev as a character is not liked by many due to obvious reasons.
Rishita is swinging like a pendulum, so opinions about her are varied as well.
Mistakes of every character is pointed out, but many are passionate about shiva due to KDs potrayal and how differently the character was written from other itv heroes in the Initial days.
So when he is wronged by people or his character is butchered by the writers,the reactions come out more strongly.
what?? shiva is no different than any itv ml he has always been your typical angry ml right from day 1 the ml who was actually different during initial days was gautaum gaumbi there was another char called karan from writers previous show who broke gender stereotype who was unique whose insecurities were potrayed beautifully who never felt the need to mistreat naina to show how bechara he is
and no people still try to justify shiva s behavior under garb of him being "awkward" "jealous" "treading on egg shells" nobody ever called him out on any of his mistakes the trauma that rishita suffered because of shiva and krish was in the same category of dhara beating them up still you dont see anyone holding that against them like they hold it against
about getting wronged? then everyone has been very patient with him from bhoot kand to kangaan kand to jeera kand gaumbi was always there to clean his mess when he sold his property off gaumbi understood that he is old enough to make decision everytime raavi berated him specially during pooja track it was gaumbi who asked everyone to give them space
dhara told rishita off for snooping around shiva s room dhara told mami for provoking him
and krish was always there part of every scheme along with shiva
shiva s family has been very patient with him right from start from giving up his education to selling his land off every decision of his has been accepted
only person who needs to be understood at this moment is raavi
shiva s problems are in his head his self-doubts are created by himself if only he would just talk everyone would listen but he refuses to take he absolutely refuses to see himself anything other than a failure
in all this collateral damage and still she is the one getting bashed nowadays
