Initially i was upset, now I really enjoy those words which people use frequently for Bani character like useless Adinagin, khalikhopdi and all. I enjoy to think that how people put their efforts to write long long post just to bash Bani. Now I feel that automatically comes when somebody watches TV drama only for one particular actor or actresses. So I just ignore those.😛
I guess others have already responded on this but from my POV, I don't dislike Bani. Others here might, and from their POV their reasoning is valid...but the way I see it is, I've seen, tolerated and forgiven worse things than Bani has done in plenty of male leads over the years...and if I can ignore/excuse the worst tendencies of those men in those shows, then I certainly do the same here for Bani. I find her a fascinating character in many ways, very rare on Indian TV, and even when she's being frustrating and hard to read, I can almost always find something that I relate to in her (I am also a relatively closed off person in real life so I can understand that impulse well! 😆). Bas her Jay-jaap needs to end 🤢 baaki I can live with 😆 And I like the fact that she and Veer are takkar-ke. Neither is above or beneath the other in the relationship. Both can and do stand their ground, warna even (for example) Annika in IB, whom I adore, was eventually turned into a bit of a doormat so "The Great Wall of SSO" could be glorified ...I love Shivika a lot, but that aspect always grated on me.
Anyway, just to say that even if people on this forum say negative things about Bani it's not out of spite or pure hatred. As they say, we all love Surbhi and think she's doing a great job. Weak writing is never the fault of the actor, and people on this forum call out the bad as well as the good.
Welcome to this madhouse though! 🤗
