Agree with you. When a person is intense so is their love, there is passion in it. It’s not teenage stuff. Especially since these two have seen so much of the world in both their personal and professional lives.
Viaan had a traumatic childhood. Where did the trauma go? He might be shoving it under the carpet while dealing with his mother, but otherwise where did it go? That trauma was what pushed him to be extremely successful. To be on his toes, always alert.
And now they show him reading books, walking the slowest walk, plenty of staring, making innuendos, and no longer on top of where they are on the projects! Not to mention discussing his love life and buying stuff to a little kid. Trauma doesn’t disappear, it doesn’t let you trust easily and it definitely doesn’t let you accept the one thing you don’t believe in as easily. It is such a battle to come to terms with and then overcome it. So yes, they should have brought that passion to his journey- of realizing, struggle and eventually accepting being in love, and then further.
Nope, definitely not well done.
loved what you wrote here.
I have been on other drama forums where people have discussed the impact of growing up in a home where cheating occured. nothing about their journey to healing was quick or easy. as one lady put it, she would never gotten married if she hadn't learned how to forgive her father and to put the past behind her.
so while it may seem like just a drama, just a forum, intense love stories do bring out such open honest sharing and that in turn helps other members who are struggling with something similar. in that sense, the makers really did a disservice to viewers by making it seem like viaan was magically cured just because he fell in love.
if this was EK style show, I would laugh at the brain transplant and abrupt story changes. but the makers tried to sell us this sensitive thoughtful drama at the onset. then obviously, we will also expect those kind of writing when it comes to addressing viaan's trauama and his journey to heal and how it impacts his love life. definitely not well done.
