Although I am a strong advocate of critical thinking and constructive criticism, I have to give in :) after watching the precap. This is one intense, beautiful drama if we watch it as a piece of fiction. I know all about being a critical audience but there are times when you just want to enjoy something as a "dumb," "ignorant" viewer. Just like when you read Shakespeare... you don't wanna ruin it by reading it with all those critical lenses... The first time you read it for the sheer pleasure that it brings, so you just sit back, and enjoy the play with a mug of coffee. When everything has soaked in and you are out of that trance, you can reread the play to write a well-thought out criticism. In my Shakespeare course, I never had this option cuz we had a syllabus to cover.. so believe it or not, I failed to enjoy even Macbeth... What a shame!
Some shows are such that you have a problem with the conceptualization right from the beginning so you have issues and hence you need to vent out your frustration. But that's not the case with RangRasiya. I have enjoyed the show from day one and I don't see anything majorly wrong until I read a good criticism here on IF. So what I am gonna do is postpone reading those criticisms until the show ends or when it reaches that point where CVs just drag it aimlessly - hope we never get there though!
I want to enjoy RangRasiya like I enjoyed watching SLB's Devdas years ago. If I sit back and rewatch Devdas now, I am sure I can find many points of debate cuz no piece of fiction can be pure perfection to everyone.
