@ blue - Hmm sounds interesting!
I love stories of metamorphorsis, where people make mistakes, but they go out of their way to redeem themselves. If such a story is woven with a love story, nothing better 😉! But in such stories, the character sketch is REALLY important. The sketch needs to be evil and good at the right places. Whether good or bad, the character needs to have strong impact on the audience - while they are bad, we should hate them, and when they are good, we should love them equally! Such character sketches are really challenging from writer, director and actor's point of view. I think thats where Dutta's character sketch, writing, and MR's acting clicked perfectly! On TV, there are many other male protagonists who are much "nicer" than Dutta, but the liking you take for a character like Dutta who has done the REAL bad things in life (like killing people!), you dont feel that way for any regular "nice" hero!
I think even Dutta's problem was similar - He hated himself from inside, and at some level thought he dint deserve anything "good" in life (though he has been in a continuous journey towards redemption). He dint consciously/subconsciously believe anyone can love him dearly (the way Nakku loved him). And this feeling reinforced the hatred he had for himself, which he shows out in the form of anger, and killing people! He has this thing, he forgives his enemies easily when HE is happy in life, and if he is depressed, he punishes them severely!
