Hi Shruthi, nice to see you here after SKR forum.š
I personally think that all characters are quite refreshingly written and portrayed here. Neither is the female lead a dimwit nor the male lead a jerk. That itself is a rarity for Indian TV. š
I don't know how far this will remain, but I cannot help appreciating the fact that even if Dev came across as someone crossing the line with his coercing Sona to give in to his offer, he appears to be far more mature and dignified than most other leads I have seen. I love the fact that there is NO manhandling, no verbal assaults, no pushing/pulling/pinning. Not once have I seen him show disrespect to her or any women nor come too close for comfort. The smile he flashed yesterday was a very poignant one. Neither did he express anger nor seek sympathy. He just let it be maybe because this may have not been the first time someone was being presumptuous about him. I found the handling of the scene very restrained and classy.
As much as I like the female lead's characterization, I think there is room for much improvement here. I have found her opinionated from day 1. I have watched her first phone conversation with Dev a couple of times and I still find her to be the 'abodhro' one there. It was she who was distracted during the call, muttering to herself in a bizarre manner. And then she quipped something about 'VIP culture' at the end of a call when she had no clue about who was on the other end! And the man in question hardly threw his weight around and just asked her to tell Mr Bose to call back! Same with the second encounter where she bumped into him. He had not even opened his mouth when she began her tirade against him. More recently, she assumed that Dev had neglected his mother's health hence the delay in treatment. Of course, each of her assumptions is justified based on her deductions. But the interesting thing is she took offense when Dev dared to assume that she could be 'bought' by money. I am not criticising her, just noticing how real these characters seem to be. Because this is how human beings are- inconsistent, incoherent mass of contradictions and conflicts.
