Memories...they can be good...they can be bad...they can be cherishing...they can be haunting...but they never really fade away ...yes even if you have amnesia...because they are stored in some part of your brain and they remain there forever!
We all go through phases of life...good ...bad...ups and downs...and more than often...we wish that we could forget the bad phase...we wish we could totally undo it...or eliminate it from our system...Hah! How we wish we had a "delete" button to do that so easily...but unfortunately it doesn't exist. Time may heal wounds...time may blur the memories...but time cannot wipe them out still. Some people make the bad phase their driving force to move ahead and do better next time...some keep sulking and wish it never happened ...and some simply slam it right at back of their minds so as to just keep their minds delusional and make it think that it never happened and they keep moving on...and yet still...that memory lives on!
Rangrasiya...is just a mere TV show...very small aspect of my real life...something quite negligible TBH...but yet...even that has managed to create a memory for me...ALBEIT a very burdened one!
10-20 years down the line...whenever my heart...or my senses will trigger my mind and I recall this show...I will not be able to remember it with a smile on my face. Infact, it will leave a lump in my throat and burden on my heart each time I will remember it...and the reason...
"A beautiful story that never attained its due deserved."
Everyone...from the cast...the crew...the makers...the channel...and the audience will have 1 thing in common...that they didn't receive their due credit for all the effort each one put through however big or small a contribution it was.
I have nothing much left to say about how everything is being churned out. People might say I am ready to trash the show...or I hate the show...but that does not change the fact that I really did fall in love with just about everything in this show...the concept...the characters ...the narration...the acting capabilities of the actors...Until it came to a point where I find myself regretting for loving it at all. So NO...I dont hate the show...I dont trash the show...but I regret ever being part of this journey and I wish I never had a memory that will store all this unfortunate events forever in my mind.
You know sometimes there are stories that dont get happy endings...but then the endings are such that everything still feel complete in its total incompleteness...Stories like "A Walk to Remember"..."Titanic"..."Mohabbatein"..."Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam"..."Sagar"...and the latest "Ek Villian" are just a few to name out of so many where the endings are such that it leaves you with a smile despite the incomplete story of the lover...because in that incompleteness...there is a sense of completeness...and I can only wish that I could have placed Rangrasiya along with these names...because that was the calibre of the show...that was the potential of this mere Indian TV show that crossed boundaries of normal desi soap...but all I am left to say is ..."ALAS"!!!!!!!!
