"Of all forms of caution, caution in love is perhaps the most fatal to true happiness."
I am awaiting today eagerly like many people for this show to commence the promo itself captured me quite vividly from the word go... from the single line that echoes in all the promos - Saiyaan naino ki bhashaa samjhe na - to the subtlety of scenes which are a beautiful glimpse of what should be expected in this show. Mohnish and Kritika look amazing together and I loved the tagline of this show - ' Pyar ki aahat bhi hai .. aur hichkichat bhi' but above it all I suppose is the best thing so far I really liked - the title Rajan has picked - Kuch Toh Log Kahenge - which is the crux of the tale to a certain point. Bertrand Russell
we all know in a nutshell what the story is gonna be - Ashutosh a man in his late 30' would be shown falling in love with Nidhi - a girl in her early 20' - but the only hurdles that would stand in their way wont be just their personal issues - things that may create unnecessary friction between them - but also their thoughts to overcome their personal anxieties to acknowledge their feelings to each other without any hesitation that would be there not only due to them sharing a professional relationship with him being her senior but also the fact that they have an age gap of over a decade that separates them which is where the role of the' Society' would come in. The very thought of ' what people would say' when this would be out will be playing a crucial element in this story.
Surely we have seen such May December couples before on screen on Indian shows where the girl is usually shown married to the guy under circumstances which make it necessary for them to tie the knot as per the story but what lures us to Ashutosh Nidhi is the novelty brought in by Rajan - where his lead pair isnt being forced to come together by their circumstances that make it necessary for them to be a couple but instead stands on the opposite side of the line where they may undergo a lot of scrutiny simply because they happen to fall in love despite the age gap terming their romance vile simply cos of it,
But why does it have to be so is simply what is on my mind making me write this post really. - Is the happiness that two people may find with each other in their relationship so beneath the worldly ways of things that only an approval granted by society can deem it to be moral - be held righteously or else seek absolution for their ways
Do only morally acceptable relationships come with a certified guarantee of happiness that they would be ever lasting ? NO i dont think so... and if so why is the social acceptance necessary ? why cant people just let 2 lives find happiness with each other if in the process they arent hindering or destroying anyone else,
Why should there be a need of approval by the world for one to gain and hold onto that one person who above all else makes us happy and is more then just necessity - who isnt just a part of our life but who makes life worth living too ...
