disheartened and let down. Its not just with the way we react or criticise a
star but its with any one to do in your day to day life. On our part, I guess
we can stop having expectations and stop putting the stars or any one
else on a pedastal.
Tell you what when the Indian Cricket team failed to win earlier, I used to
be upset. But the minute i stopped taking their victory and failure as my
own and stopped treating them as gods, and putting them in a pedastal,
life sure did become a bliss.
Personally, I feel IQ should have also thanked his co stars and his fans
when he went to recieve the awards. Why he didnt and whether he forgot,
thats his perogrative. Fans make or break a star and its only healthy to
criticise. Hey, havent people criticised Suvarna, Neha,Amit and others. So
Why make a big deal if its IQ? Criticism should be healthy and
constructive and not malign a person.Also criticism helps you become
better.Frankly Speaking Reeps, dont dwell too much into it and dont think
too much about it. Enjoy the show and love it for the joy it brings to you
and then just forget about it!

Mistyeyed, I agree with you. Constructive criticism is helpful and better
than no criticism. I am not making a big deal out of all this cause IQ is at
the recieving end. Believe me, I am being misunderstood? why? I don't
know...maybe cause I used IQ as my prime example.
Gosh, I didn't put up this post to support or demean IQ. I put it up for the
forum members to rethink of why they get so disturbed when their
expectations fall flat. I put it up for us to consider our stances on actors
and others in general....criticize the actors, I don't stop you from
that....have expectations, though limited....I won't stop you from it
either...but, why do we feel the need to malign the person...that is what I
don't understand and want people to see that there is a difference
there....there, we are just being judgemental of a person and not giving
the other person any room for impovement...basically, we have found a
stance...and dont' want to see any hope for better...we want to pound on
it, and pound hard, too.
That is all....I hope, you and others understand what I was trying to say. I
was asking us to self-anlayze our own actions...why judge others so
harshly?
