RB was his own force of nature. He was suave, savvy..unflappable..never lost his head except over Scarlett! Arnav loses his cool ever so easily, and not just with Khushi. When Rhett meets Scarlett he thinks to himself,"My God.. She's just like me!" Arnav and Khushi are portrayed as opposites. Rhett mocks and taunts Scarlett at times cruelly in order to win her because he knows Scarlett scorns men she can win easily! Arnav taunts Khushi to push her away, not to win her over!
Oh I can go on.. please do...you are doing it so well...😊

GWTW is not my favorite classic from the romance point of view. Its more a love-hate, I could spend hours on the wonderful characterizations and the daring of not portraying the lead as a traditional "good girl". And, Oh! Mitchell's skill in the classic portrayal of sexual tension..singes the pages! Ditto...that was the charm of the book, Scarlet's utter lack of charm and complete immersion in self-preservation instincts...Ms Mitchell was successful in making that both her fatal flaw as well as reason for redemption...masterful!!! As for sexual tension, I thought it was very well conveyed in the film too...this is one film that I liked as much as the book. Normally, they fall so far short.

And I so don't agree that Clark Gable has got nothing on Barun.. but that is individual opinion. Peace.
A.W.E.S.O.M.E post. Always love such discussions (read as: healthy arguments)

I thought there was a little bit of Heathcliff in Arnav.. his desire to punish himself and the one he loves! You'd better believe it Laali, I agree here too!!!!

Fiddle-dee-dee!!'

Dear Miss O'Hawa,🤗

So what do we call this...a confession straight from the O'(H)Mare's mouth? That too in vanilla English?😲 I am shocked!!!

hahahahah ..Vistoo..ROSE of Prose..undoubtedly..👏

Ok I have nothing to add except I am the shallow coffee stirrer..eh Vistaa..Was a long time when I read GWTW ..I didn't like it..esp my frame of mind couldnot accept the Bitchy Scarlett and the equally ruthless Rhett..Humph..But I liked Rhett better..maybe because XX has something to do with it🤣*note to Vistaa read more in the Ajeeb thread for the X factor..

I kinda agree on the Heathcliff bit too..he does love to punish himself..In fact he is being cruel to be kind..OMG..that was it in a nutshell

Scar O hawa..What is this ..Vistaa taunting you for Vanilla english...meaning plain as compared to the fruity parfaits you churn out for us ..Tch Tch..what is the world coming to..

VISTOO..the Mare was Brill...you have caught on the spirit of the mastipeers..
