Hi Jayati,
Loved the core issues that you have raised in the premise of this thread and even loved all the responses you got which were for once positive and did not seem like the rockets which came hurtling down everytime some members including myself wrote about the slow but sure deconstruction of LTL by the CVs. the PH and God knows what other forces at play.
I am sad that I invested so much energy in a show that I have sometimes loved to a point that I have (like countless other members of this forum) made abstraction of pressing matters to dedicate time to dissect and analyse LTL which had everything and still has promising elements if the people at the helm stop to consider the damages and loss in terms of personal and creative input from one and all. I cant blame Mishal, the lifeblood of this show if he has decided to leave the show or has been ousted from the show....whatever the scenario might be. This actor who I will call the first thinking actor to have graced the Indian entertainment scene during the past 5 years deserve the best and LTL is no longer that haloed ground anymore.....Not if he has to continuously contend and strain himself to act opposite non actors such as Praneeta Sahu or even the bland Mahi Vij. With all due respect to the latter and the Tasha concept/dream that she managed to elicit, she stopped somewhere as soon as the FR happened and all we see is a performer going through the motions.
I know that the above comments will raise hell on the forum and I am prepared to come back with another Deconstruction thread sometimes this week to prove that lots of factors have contributed to the disintegration of the fairy tale we took to heart about 12 months back with the entry of Mishal Raheja.
Hats off to him for having flown the flag of artistic integrity in the face of so much confusion and behind the scene hostility that we as an audience can gauge from the various write-ups that have raised so much commotion and desperation among the fanatics of LTL.
May come back later.
Luv,
Kavita
