After yesterday's episode I have had the worst knot in my stomach in years! Never have I seen a character on tv which is as scary as Shyam Manohar Jha. I mean even the Black Smoke from Lost wasn't that scary after a while. The only person who I could find in the world of fiction who gave me the heebe jeebes like Shyam was Tom Marvolo Riddle.

Now let me be clear. When I say Tom Riddle I don't mean Voldemort. Voldemort, though scary, wasn't half as twisted and conniving as Tom Riddle. Voldemort wasnt afraid to display his distaste and revulsion for the muggle borns and the muggle lovers. He was open in his atrocities and tortures and had nothing to hide. You knew exactly where you stood with Voldemort and knew exactly what you had coming for you if you displeased him.

The Tom Riddle of Hogwarts and Borgin & Burkes days was sinister. He was calculating, conniving, always in the good books of those who mattered and eternally obsessed and hungry for power and glory. He hid his views and thoughts. You never knew what he was up to and the cruelty he was capable of. He is the perfect mirror to Shyam.

We know that this Khushi obsession is nothing new for Shyam and not the reason why he is cheating and lying to his wife. When we first met him he was already lying through his teeth to his wife by saying he is on tour when he was in Lucknow the same time she was. He doesn't let any body know what is going on in that devious little head of his and is always in the good books of those who matter (Nani, Bua, Anjali and Arnav), he is calculating, cunning, and has a knack for making any situation work for him. His obsession with Khushi is no less than Toms obsession with things that belonged to the great pure blood wizards and horcruxes. It won't go away but fester in to the deaths of those who posess them and won't willingly part with them. So if Babuji won't part with his daughter he is better off dead.

Shyam like Tom has the potential to become his own version of Voldemort. The only thing that scares me about Shyam is that I can't see a Dumbledore in sight!! Who is the only person Shyam is scared of?

HELP!!!

Hmmm no comments huh? I guess every one is busy looking for Dumbledore! I guess we could all just chuck owls and dung bombs at Shyam the next time he shows up at #4 Privat Drive a.k.a Buaji ka ghar!

Hii. mini nice comparison the only thing I want to add is I find Shyaam even scarier than Lord Voldemort.
His action chilled me to the Bone. When we watch Harry Potter we all know that its not real I mean there is no HOGWARTS, magical world etc so it scares me but only till I watch movie but Shyaam is STILL scary after almost 16 hours.
I hope Anjali plays Dumbledore and Arnav plays Harry Potter to kill the Voldie.

Dude when I read your last line, I got this sudden image of Arnav dressed like Harry with the messy hair, scar, glasses, robe, and wand, there was even that blue cloudy-lighting background. I don't think I will ever be able to get that image out of my head😆.

Ahaha haha haha! After that vivid imagery I'm not Tha scare any more! Although I'd rather picture Barun in a nights armor but HP Halloween costumes don't seem so bad either! I mean the wand is not just a stick of wood and it's really handy for poking in eyes and up asses if the per wet gets too handsy!!!

Yes Asmita that's exactly what I meant. Voldemort at the night of his power wasn't as scary as Tom Riddle at the orphanage!!! Which is why I didn't compare him to Voldemort but Riddle. The enemy who is hidden in plain sight is far more dangerous than a known enemy any given day!!!

I must say I really liked how you compared and contrasted Riddle with Shyam. They are quite similar really. Shyam has done a really good job. He also reminds me of Ritesh from Tere Liye who was quite similar to him.

Let's see if he is eventually able to join my list of top villains such as Joker from The Dark Knight, Ben of Lost, T-Bag of Prison Break, Lex Luthor of Smallville, or my personal all time favourite villain Sylar from Heroes (who also gained the trust of people first then did what he needed to do)

O lord I forgot all about Sylar!!! Man he was deadly and just as ruthless!!! But I didn't hate him as much! See Sylar had a need to feel special like Riddle. They had daddy issues and abandonment issues. What issues does Shyamless have? They havnt really delved in to his reasons for being like this where nothing matters but his obsession not even the life of a person. Lust is just not good enough an excuse. I mean even Arnav has reasons for being an ass to Khushi. We know that because it's been showed he has a troubled past. But what possible reason does Shyam have?
