Actually we as viewers admire KD's good looks
But the way makers have sketched Shiva's character is different. He's dark (which is something a lot of people are insulted for), has long unkempt hair, wears vests, always has tel/masala/aata on his shirt
To quote that Sneha girl, "Baal bhi ni banata, theek se chalna bhi ni aata isko"
Most people on the forum are open minded and don't subscribe to conventional beauty standards, and well, KD is freaking gorgeous, but in PS world, Shiva, as per society's standards, is well... sort off ugly. Which gets more highlighted when compared with his brothers who are all fair people and are dressed decently, and overall pass the gentleman checklist.
And well that makes a big part of his insecurities, apart from the education thing. Its quiet a realistic portrayal actually. Lots and lots of people are discriminated against because they don't fit society's so called standards of "attractiveness."
Its a beautiful shade of Shiva's character, I wish makers cared about his journey.
And if I haven't mentioned it a gazillion times already, KD is gorgeous!!!☺️ Which is turn makes Shiva a treat for the eyes.
@bold Damn🤣🤣
Yeah well, the look suits him quiet well😆
