Sanskar is fabulous!! - Page 2

I am absolutely, totally in love with Sanskar. In fact it is Sanskar for whom I have started watching the show regularly. Yes even I am surprised that a RS show can create such fabulous male characters!! I always thought the male leads of RS shows were not more that poster boys. But this show changed it.
I have seen Ragini type villains in shows, but Sanskar is one unique character. Without him I wouldn't have even watched the show. And Varun Kapooor plays it so well.

Great post. I agree with a lot of your comments. Sanskaar is truly a superlative character. I think the credit probably goes to Gautam Hegde, who I think (may be mistaken but am quite sure I am right) is the writer- he was instrumental in Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon too where they flirted with a borderline lead character and had a truly evil villain too, rather than Rashmi Sharma (but please don't shoot if I'm wrong on this). VK is truly outstanding as Sanskaar. I used to like him before this but only in a sort of generalised way- after this show, he makes my list of characters I will always remember with applause.

I am not in full agreement on Ragini. I don't have anything against Tejaswi but I feel at some point, Ragini become a bit too much for me. I think when it started off, it was a great concept of a weak but essentially "goody goody" girl whose constant suppression of her feelings led to a monster being unleashed when given the right stimulus (i.e. Sanskaar in the old days). I then just got fed up of the inconsistency in seeing her on screen- sometimes i find the expressions too lacking, the voice modulation for me is very bad and I think there is now too much emphasis on just seeing tears. The molestation drama scenes were appalling. Today- I felt she did the job but generally I have got to the point with Ragini the character itself that she's such a delusional victim playing psycho, that it gets tiresome. Shame for me as I have always found negative characters quite fascinating but let's see what happens when Ragini's truth is out.

Oh say it isn't so. I can happily see Sanskar becoming a standard RS hero but not another shadow of Arnav. I hated IPK and Arnav with a passion so I can only hope Sanskar's characterization remains as good as it is now because you never know. I would like to see him as a negative lead too because just picture the acting range he'd get but I like Sanskar as he is now.

I feel like a lot of hatred for Ragini comes from how sociopathic her character is. Acting is subjective anyway. What is good for me may not be the same for you so no arguments there. I do think Ragini is a very interesting character and pretty much the plotmaker of the show and Sanskar and her chemistry is insane. That balcony scene when he gives her the sidelong glance to gloat and she looks at him, shocked. Brilliantly done. Their scenes, while less in number, are major in magnitude.

Sanskaar follows the policy..that do what needs to be done.

he follows the dictum of swami Vivekananda 'you cannot teach a bull the Bible.

when he comes up against shit..he gives it back.

but when its time to love..he loves back.

loving our enemies will only land us up dead after all.

But yes, when its a matter of love and life..there are some things which you cannot mess with.

you cannot force people to love you. if they fall in love with you..its ok...if they don't well...you cannot do a lot about it. Sanskaar knows this and respects this boundary. he is wise enough to know it.⭐️

but ragini does not. thats the difference between these two.😕

VK...hats off man!! you brought sanskaar to life. and i swera your chemistry with rags is just brilliant. its like a bro-sis nok jhok ka relationship...only a 100 fold more dangerous.😲

Yes, Sanskar has boundaries and can also be morally ambiguous if need be, which makes him such an interesting hero. Ragini is a sociopath, Sanskar is perfectly normal. They are hardly similar. But they do have this very intriguing enmity going on which should be explored better.

Eh. Their relationship is strangely aggressive and almost sensual in an abstract way if people bothered to look beyond basic pairing drama between characters. I am yet to see any sibling vibe between them but it is subjective finally. Two people can create chemistry that does not need to be romantic or friendly or brotherly. There are various shades to chemistry.
