Rudra

Kind of reminds me of a desi version of Heathcliff from Wuthuring Heights. Rough, full of testosterone, angry, aggressive, brutal but full of passion and love. I think he was a well thought out character EXCEPT for the fact he slapped both Pihu and Gauri. I think the fact he has a sense of humor and some wit along with the intensity he feels about his relationships with others, makes him all the more appealing. Now, in real life would I date someone like him, heck NO. He is too high maintenance, but the fact he is played by Iqbal Khan makes it tough.

I think we need to have our Gauri admit that she is attracted to him. His wildness and unpredictability is addictive yet at the same time very exhausting. But she's willing to jump in that relationship and she's a feisty young one to say the least. Let us hope the writers will keep the passion and anger of Rudra without the slapping of women and end this practice completey.

I wont deny Laila, despite being rude and ruthless he is complete adorable person , yes i dont like the slapping either , and they had balanced him very well, not a saint and neither is a devil , one who can go to any level for loved ones , and at same time one who can go to any level to destroy same ones

Its hard to hate him , even if we hate him for some of his actions ,

Any gal will get attracted to this kind of guys ,

I agree with how you described Rudr - I will add lonely with a huge void in his heart to this list.

Totally agree on the bold too😆, but I love these kind of characters in stories. My deal is, what I want in real life is totally opposite to what I like to read in stories and watch in shows - wierd😆

Rach, I would have married Mr. Darcy of Pride and Prejudice had I found him in real life in a flash! No questions asked! Colin Firth playing Mr. Darcy comes close, but alas! he is married with a family! 😆😉

Laila, I know you are a fan of IQ but my post is about Rudr's character.

I would not compare Rudr to Heathcliff. Heathcliff was a dark, dark, tormented character, scary in fact to all except Catherine, who was the only one who could "handle" him.

Yes, Rudr is tormented as well because what he thought was the love of his life, Pihu, acted in ways that left him shattered. But he does not come across dark like Heathcliff. Rudr's character comes across a bit confusing and also confused to me. He has his lucid moments and makes sense in the story but when it is interspersed with his drunken state, it confuses the heck out of me. His lucid moments are few. He is made to hate and love/like and listen/ignore other characters at the whim and fancy of the writers to fit the story. It totally muddles his character.

BTW, the practice of slapping was rampant in CB and can only be concluded as preferred practice with this PH. It will not end any time soon. Count on it...
