Rumi is ill mentally. He is a stalker. He is dangerous. So he's clearly a negative character. And he has a proper arc and its possible to actually watch him and not cringe. Its well performed too.
With Angad, he makes no sense to me. just does everything low key and is not full on psycho. But he has been abusive- drunk misbehaving with Sahiba, flinging things at Sahiba in anger, raging and screaming. He has an image of being very upright, but sab dhong hai. He's a short tempered, arrogant guy and he doesn't even have any mental illness. Bass conditioning hai. Entitled raja beta with pathetic parents who gave him no sanskaar about how to behave. One day he will act like gentleman, next day he will throw things at his wife.
he's actually got the hots for 2 women at once.
One is his sister in law whom he calls "family" and not SIL She proposes EMA and he reacts by letting her linger and parades around city with her claiming he's just doing his duty or being a friend 🙄
On the other hand he's also possessive about namesake wife whom he was also shown getting close to over several months. He cant stand it if any other guy is near her also. He goes crazy in rage.
I prefer a character like Rumi over Angad.
Joh hai clearly dikhate hai without condoning his deeds. Not glorifying a jerk like Angad or making him bechaara.
Even Garry was a good character. Openly tha voh jerk, playboy etc. But Swag tha. It was well performed.
Yeh Angad toh is basically a two faced guy based on what they show.
