To begin with let me make it very clear that this post in no way is intended to malign or disrespect the actors in any way. I think all the actors, be it KP, DT or AH are phenomenal. They are giving their 100% commitment to a show that is turned into shit. The fact that their acting strength is the only thing that keeps the show going is amazing. Alright... so here is my first non-fiction post on IF...
Almost two years ago I heard a catchy tune on TV and watched the promo of an upcoming show...I was interested!!! The moment I realised that it was an Ekta show my interest weaned of... I felt that this was just another Saas-Bahu tear jerker... only without the K alphabet in the name... so I forgot about it... stuck to my Sherlock, Castle and Grey's... A few weeks later I was browsing through channels when I saw this amazing hot guy with a cute little girl worried about her tooth ache... I sat down to watch and was riveted by the subtlety of the show... its characters... and the actors... All three of them... My interest was piqued by this amazingly good looking guy, a father of a six year old, who was really worried for his daughter but was not able to show it... Over the next few months I got attached to this complex character called Raman... his innocence... his anger... his pain... his wittiness... the way he dealt with his past... the way he stood for what was right... the way he grieved for his son... the way he fell in love with his wife... and most of all... his one liners!!! And then the misguided me started falling in love with this character... 2014 was the year I fell in love with RKB... 2015 was the year of his downfall... he kept making mistakes and the fan in me kept justifying his character assassination... but thankfully these last few months managed to initiate a detox process in me... and today the process was complete... so once I cool down I am going to probably watch this show again... and I am going to laugh and cry with Ishra again... but the next time I get upset because of some rubbish that the CVs make Raman do... all I am going to do is change the channel and say... My fault... He is just a fictional character!
Please Note: The above piece is just MY OPINION. And my opinion is not so because I side with Ishita. This is not about Ishita Vs Raman. Please keep that in mind.
