Very interesting, suddenly Imlie is conveniently the âheroâ again after almost 200 epis of making her a reactionary bimbo who gave the remote control to her life to a guy who made all her choices for her including marriage (oops I guess he did give her the âchoiceâ to complete the final phera).đ I wasnât aware that âheroesâ acted in such a pitiful way.đ After turning Imlie into a first rate bimbo to elevate the grand âsaviourâ ASR who was supposed to be the âantithesisâ to AKT and make Imlieâs life a bed of roses, she is expected to be the hero again. Just lovely.đđ
I guess the ASRâs hero-giri is limited to âhealingâ her past trauma with sex, cuz the poor girlâs life has hardly changed otherwise. Sheâs still being subjected to daily attempts on her life while her husband doesnât bother doing anything except lifting his eyebrow.𤣠What a grand saviour, indeed.đ¤Ą
Imlie the hero died the day she gave mooney eyed looks to a rich CEO and flailed her wet hair at him within days of walking out from her husband. Imlie the hero died the day her faith died.đ Imlie the hero died the day she allowed a guy to blackmail her into marriage. Imlie the hero died the day she allowed a random guy she barely knew to change her from Imlie from Pagdandiya to Imlie Aryan Singh Rathore. So no, her name is no longer Imlie, it is Imlie-ASR, and a hero whoâs 3/4 of name belongs to someone else is not really a hero in anyoneâs book.đ
So no, I donât think Imlie is the hero, anymore.đ Her character has been wholly destroyed beyond repair at this point. And since ASR, as you say, isnât much of a hero himself, and youâve also got weak villains, the entire show has no game.đ All to elevate one character who prematurely took away all the kudos of a hero and for supposedly âsavingâ Imlie while being a spectacular failure at fulfilling the responsibilities of one. So much so that the fans are passing the heroâs mantle back to Imlie after showering him with the praises and cursing her for not appreciating his âhero-giriâ enough.đ¤Ł
imlie is the hero and continues to be the hero of the show. if you understand literature, then you will understand my reference -- hero refers to the central character around which the plot revolves. it does not mean heroic in any form. infact they can be as stupid and brainless -- it does not matter really. so imlie being the hero was something that gashmeer himself recognized in this interview: (since he is a good actor, he understands very well)
"First of all, let's not forget that the name of the show is Imlie. You have a performer like Sumbul Touqeer who is dynamite as Imlie. People tend to forget this. Everybody is just debating about various things. One shouldn't forget that the show-runner is Imlie and she is Sumbul Touqeer. The show runs on her shoulders. It has always been running on her shoulders and will continue to do so till the show goes on. She is a tremendously talented actor. In fact, she is one of the most phenomenal co-actors I have worked with so far. So, the show is going to run and it has to run. If it doesn't run after my exit, I would be the most unhappy person for three reasons. One because the show is very close to me, I would never want to be called or named as the reason for why the show didn't do well later. I will never want that to happen. I don't want my name to be associated in that way with that show. In fact, if the show grabs more milestones in the future, I would extremely be proud of it."
