Lol, I get "annoyed" by everything š¤£, but I was probably more annoyed that I didn't have a good enough comeback for you... still to this day!
Hopefully Pandya Store will introduce a new character in the show that I can compare you to š¤£

Will see! I believe I have a good defensešš
Touchy- touchy āŗ, because I am 99.9% sure that Shiva has withdrawal symptoms when he goes too long without touching Raaviā¢ļø.... Touch seems to be his love language and the boy is in pyaaars with Raavi....

Ranveer also had climbed like this. š
I loved the vibe of this scene. š¤£Bori man became the Chattan Man.
On a serious note, a ladder is often symbolic of trying to reach something which is unattainable, trying to rise up to the expectations or building bridges. In dreams, climbing a ladder is suggestive of an unattainable fantasy and falling represents sexual frustration.
I love how layered the scene was. Raavi portrayed as this attainable figurine, and Shiva trying to encroach her perfectly porcelain world.
Secondly, it gave me very Rapunzel like vibes. š

ML, writers do think a lot before writing for a particular set of audiences. Contrary to our beliefs, creatives and writers have to balance TRP pressure, characters etc. Etc.
Until I wasn't involved professionally, I used to believe makers are stupid, but I have seen the opposite side too and have tons of friends who belong to this profession. Trust me, their templates and process are enjoyable.
Iād give you an example. We used to watch the Sphere Origins show Gulaal, and there was a particular scene we were frustrated with. The FL covers her head with a pallu after pushing the drunk ML and then accused him of lusting after her.
We all were on a rampage in the forums and discussion groups. Year's later, the director's interview was taken by a very dear friend of mine where he told about that particular scene as a subconscious move by the FL for denial and self-preservation. She had fallen in love with him, but it was more to deny herself; she lashes out. It was better for her that way!
This was Siddharth Sengupta and Mansi Parekh both. We all were stunned by the layers certain scenes go through.
Content consumption patterns are different for different people, and it's so hard for a writer/director and maker to portray it to everyoneās liking.
I'd give you another example of a movie called Dil Se by Mani Ratnam. Currently, it's under a lot of flak for striking, but there are many layers to characters in it!
Actual life incidents loosely inspired this movie.
There's a lot of thought given to why a particular character would behave A certain way. Not being the devilās advocate here, but sometimes it's interesting to see the other side.

Thanks for sharing it! I would have never guessed it and went on being ignorant.
Definitely is interesting to see it from another perspective!
