there are other ways to show diffrences in age,that appear more real & authentic, since they have settled for 8 years diffrence,which is almost a decade.
so the diffrences could be shown as:
simbhi having diffrent music taste
abhi is more modern,so he might have female friends,but simi being set in her ways see the friendship in difdfrent light & that could be the point of argument
the couple can clash due to the diffrence in there upbringing & thinking,
plus abhi is far more independent than simi & more world wise whilst on the other hand simi is dependent on her family & not that avers to the outside world , so might get to clingy with abhi & in return he might find that suffocating,due to him being use to his own space
this is just my point of view i don't what you guys will make of this,but i just believe that instead of trying so hard to show the age diffrence, by making him act like a child
it will be far better to show the diffrence in thinking,tastes,point of view & interests, which for us viewers will be more enjoyable,than what's happening right now
Well said; I was thinking the same thing. I wanted to see more of Abhi and Simi going out and Simi (who is very shy and reserved) going with him to hang with his friends and realizing she feels very odd and out of place.
Also, I think it would be interesting for him to see her with female friends. I had thought they would have had scene where Simi, thinking Abhi sees her as a friend (and more), is excited only to learn, Abhi is like that with all his female friends. Her face is full of dismay and she is devastated to realize she is just one of his many female friends. Plus, it would be so touching to see a scene with Simi feeling so inadequate among them and then Abhi pointing something out about Simi's personality that makes her so much more special than all of them. And I agree, somewhere in there we could have Abhi initially encourage her that men and women can be friends.
I like the idea of the music and I was hoping there would have been a scene where Abhi takes Simi dancing or teaches her how to dance (Neil Bhatt is a dancer). Also, we can see their different tastes in music. Abhi can even take her to a show - all the differences between them will be seen.
That's about half a dozen episodes right there that I know I would have loved to watch.
I also like your point about the independent Abhi versus dependent Simi - that's so true and that's what I got about their personalities. It would have been so great to have seen more of this in his personality.
Sajibabe, you and I are on the same page here. I just wish the creatives would have talked to us before they made their fiasco of the storyline we have now.
I hope and pray they do something quick otherwise this is turning into a run of the mill drama.
