Everyone seems to have gone ga-ga over Armaan-Ridz (believe me, I am one of them😳) but to me, the real life of this show is currently the cutie-pie Atul!😆😆 Atul is like the perennial joker, the class clown who keeps everyone entertained with his comedy and his occasional gaffes and follies. But he's different from all the stock comic characters because he actually has the whole package - he has a strong sense of pride in his country, his planet and in nature; he has intelligence (of course, he had to, he's a doctor!) and he has a heart - I don't think he does or can think bad of anyone. He's quick to respond to emotions - "apni Sapna", and is ready to help out someone he has only known for a few weeks - Ridz.
To me, he is one of the most interesting of the fivesome; he reminds me of classic Omi from Sanjeevani - always the joker and "shoulder to cry on". I think there is a lot more to this character that can be explored. His background, upbringing, his family life. And something also makes me think - is his laughter a front for some inner pain? Is there something painful in his past that he is hiding with his jokes? Whatever the case, I feel that Atul, while he might be a "secondary lead" - when thinking of the love triangle between Anju-Ridz-Armaan - will and should play a far more important role in the story in the future.
What do you guys think?
