I don’t get what kind of friends Raavi has. Even if I don’t approve of a friend’s spouse (though it’s none of my business esp if we aren’t close enough for me to attend her wedding), why on earth would I embarrass my friend and say it out loud?
And I missing something here? Why are they acting as if Shiva is completely out of place and is someone to laugh at? I just don’t get it. I feel like they are creating a weird shift in Shiva’s character for this insecurity track.
Yes, he didnt go to college and wasn’t too mindful of hygiene earlier. He didn’t dress perfectly as per society standards. But that was about it. Sometimes he would say things in a very blunt way but I always thought Shiva was always shown to be well spoken when necessary. For him it was always a choice to be who he is. He chose to not be like Dev or Gaumbi but has the tools and resources to showcase that side, should he choose to. I remember us saying that’s the biggest difference between him and Kathir.
The insecurity track could have been much better written. I feel like the writers are trying to make him more like the OG character. But it doesn’t make sense. When you grow up in a house where individuals like Dhara, Gaumbi, etc… it already puts you in a different league. Not to mention, Shiva was always very intelligent. I understand him feeling insecure when it comes to Raavi but the others laughing at him made no sense to me. Shiva always seemed like the guy who could fit in if he wanted to but it was his choice to not give importance to such things. His insecurity could have revolved around Raavi. But by emphasizing on the wrong ideas, they are changing Shiva’s character. Watch them randomly say he was forced to quit school.
I don’t know if what I said makes sense. But I still don’t understand why these friends were acting the way they were. It was so OTT. Them sensing something is wrong would have been fine. Even Sneha’s comment I can understand because she knows Shiva and Raavi has spoken about him that way. She was wrong but this is just plain bad writing. Did anyone else feel this way 😆
