Naseeruddin Shah Irritated On Times Now Reporter

Ansh was a rapist. That’s worse than anything else aside from pedophilia and other sexual assaults. Karan Nandini and others were completely innocent and actual positive characters. Yes, Maya’s character was explored, but people didn’t sympathized her because of that. Otherwise, people would’ve felt that way about Maya of Beyhadh2 as well. I couldn’t connect with Maya of Beyhadh2 that much and I know many who loved Maya of Beyhadh but couldn’t connect with Maya of Beyhadh2 that much or at all. I hated when she killed rishi as he was completely innocent. The positive characters of Beyhadh2 were actually positive. Maya of Beyhadh2 was a dark grey character for the most part unlike Beyhadh’s Maya who was a victim/positive to slight grey for the first season of the show until the leap where she was turned more grey. So people already fell in love with that Maya based on the preleap Maya they saw and connected with. Besides Maya, it was Saanjh who was the most explored but most people hated her character. I couldn’t stand that character after the first 2 weeks of the show.Originally posted by: FlauntPessimism
The reason why most sympathized with Maya was because the show was made from her perspective and her character was explored. Otherwise her character was similar to season 1 Ansh. Not for any other reason....
She was evil as were others. Her crimes were more severe than that of others
And if somehow you feel a child's life is more precious than that of an adult then that's just bias
See rishta and other shows where even side characters like Tanya who barely got even 10% of space that Saanjh got but Tanya is still loved by many unlike the lead character Abhira or upama who are bashed or disliked by most now.

if the story was shown from Ansh' perspective. His wife didn't love him but still shared his sorrows with her best friend including hugging him.
Lying to police to save a criminal is also a crime that Karan did to save Ansh.
They don't become completely innocent when you see from his perspective.
R**ing is equally bad as falsely blaming a man for r**e. First spoils the life of a girl and second of a man.
In season 1 Maya was just obsessive and though not "good" but not even "bad" character
Post leap she became evil.
Since Behad was from Maya's perspective hence they showed her good sides first before showing her evil nature. For KSKBT, Karan Nandani were the core, so they showed Ansh' bad side first before showing his positive side(on how good a person and lover he was to Shradha)
No, raping someone is never equal to blaming someone for rape. Ayaan did do everything that night except for the final act of raping her. He assaulted her, tried to tear her clothes and gave disgusting dialogues to her like a rapist. Before it was revealed it that Maya faked the rape allegation, more than half of audience did actually believe he must have raped her because how he acted that night. He walked into it on his own. Anyway, Maya took back that case and he got free afterwards, but Maya should’ve put a physical and sexual assault case against him for that night because that would’ve been completely true. She was a moron that she didn’t do that and instead decided to put a rape charge on him which just made her look bad. But despite that it doesn’t absolve what Ayaan did that night. Ansh can’t be comparable to Maya. One was villain and other was a grey character. For you, she was dark. That’s your opinion but for me others in the show were evil and Maya the one I could root for among all the horrible people around her.Originally posted by: FlauntPessimism

Those are exactly the same. Ayaan might have done everything wrong still blaming someone and getting him imprisoned for the crime he didn't do while making him a villian to the entire world is equally wrong..I think I saw the episode and that moment in itself it got clear that to me that he is snatching the key.. In fact that day itself I had posted this and many did(you can find it in the IF posts itself). Only Maya fans took it differently
The only reason Ansh can't be compared to Maya is because Ansh' perspective wasn't centeral in that story.
For you they are the same thing. For me they aren’t. Again snatching a key from someone doesn’t justify assaulting that person physically and sexually. He was pushing and dragging Maya. Trying to tear her clothes. Maya should’ve filed physical and sexual assault cases against him. Oh, I forgot. He also broke into Maya’s house. So another case against him. Maya was stupid that she didn’t do all these cases against him and instead went for rape charge. As for Ansh, you can say that. That’s your opinionOriginally posted by: FlauntPessimism

ohhh beyhadh discusion. i think flaunt was there in forum? idk
i think the show was very clear that maya's mental illness made things worse, also small and big things trigger her to even bigger mistakes
its the actors capacity that maya was sympathized more. and i have always felt sanjh actor wasnt good at all, and ofcrs kushal sucks. maybe someone as capable as maya, their character could hv gotten audience sympathy too
I think the problem was more about writing than actors. I hated saanjh. Never disliked a female character like her. I thought I would never be able to see that actress again as I thought her face would always remind me of saanjh and the actress was immature too. She would only bash Maya and Maya fans in her interviews, but she was given a really well character in silsila. I loved her there. So I forgive her for her offscreen immaturity as she was very young then.Originally posted by: Phir_Mohabbat

I think her and Arjun’s characters were intentionally written that way in Beyhadh. Vandana’s character too. So audience hate them. Else they would’ve written Beyhadh2 ml and third wheel like that too. But Beyhadh2 ml and third wheel were both decent and good people. So people didn’t feel that irritation and hatred towards them. I know Beyhadh had two PHs. They split and one of them made Beyhadh2. So I don’t know if the writers changed or what, but Beyhadh2’s characters were much better. You didn’t feel like pulling your hair when watching them 😭 But Beyhadh2 Maya wasn’t written that well to connect with audience like Maya of Beyhadh. Also Beyhadh2 wasn’t as well made like Beyhadh, so it wasn’t as successful

I am not justifying Ayan, i am just saying that it was pretty clear he was snatching the key (when you said everyone thought he was actually trying to r**e)
And yes he did a lot of wrong things but Maya didn't blame him for any of those.. Only for a crime he didn't...
And he was there to.save his who was held a hostage
And I hope you remember that scene. Maya had drugged Arjun and tied him up and was about to sleep besides him.. So practically there she was attempting to molest Arjun and it was this time when Ayan came as a saviour.. Maya deliberately hid the key inside her clothes
Comparing if that way we go even Karan had hit Ansh while holding his collar. his clothes were of better quality so didn't got torn.
Everyone or most thought he was raping her because that’s exactly how he acted. I agree that Maya should’ve put the charges against him for crimes he did. But she was stupid and went for rape charge which wasn’t necessary as he would got a long jail sentence for breaking in and assaulting her sexually and physically. .Originally posted by: FlauntPessimism

Maya drugged Arjun to take him back home because he lied to her and put her in the airplane without her consent. He was attempting to outsmart her, but she outsmarted him. She didn’t inject him to molest him but to stop him and prevent him from leaving the house. Why are you saying something else than what was clearly shown? That b*stard deserved that and worse. If he remained loyal to her and didn’t go around flirting with girls and whatever shit he had going on with saanjh, maya wouldn’t have needed to do all that as she was didn’t do alll that with him initially after marriage
