Well analysis does not mean that there is justification or sympathy. If shows like Revenge or EHT showed dark side or many books or academic analysis do, then that is an exploration.
Beasts and devils are just labels we use. It is always individual. Bad or good. Analysis did help in making new laws and fuelling different conditioning via media and other sources. It doesn't bring change overnight.
I have watched non commercial movies too. I did mention Mandi on last page. I know what villains are like. I am not in awe of Goenkas nor will I like to come across such people in real life. Infact I wouldn't even like to meet a Durga because I do not favour vigilante means.
This show was made for different spin on entertainment. This is why ruthlessness of Goenkas is coated with other glamour or fun.
Actually the uber rich types are just like that. Their faces cannot make you believe they are what they are. Ness Wadia is portrayed as a dreamboat. Yet he has history of being a highly abusive BF and Preity Zinta was just one of the many he abused. From his face you can't judge he could be anything less than a gentleman!
Villains are not always low caste rustics. Or ugly men with kamina written all over their faces. I think this is what this serial is trying to show. Infact the denial of viewers to accept the villainy is interesting as it shook their beliefs. I as a viewer enjoy the debate and conflict EHT creates despite its bloopers and very obvious blunders. I find it engaging.
Opinion on acting is subjective. But by and large people love the actors who played villains. Posts on other sites, polls and pages reflect it.
Sometimes non acting or wooden faces are hard to distinguish from real subtlety.
It goes on. Battles are tough fought. Even video games give tougher challenges to win the final game.
That's how it is. The fact that Durga doesn't give up even in face of such adversity makes her special and heroic.
Serials and films like to push heroes and heroines to the wall before a win. That struggle makes them relatable, and the win makes them ideal and aspirational.
