There have been many posts about whether or not actors should be wearing their wedding rings when shooting as other characters. Now I agree with ones who say no because I come from the idea that wedding rings can be worn around the neck so that the actor stays true to character. So I wrote that in a thread and saw a very interesting response. By the way, it's every actor's personal call, I am just talking as a viewer. This is not a comment on Barun or any other actor's personal life.

Someone said she would make (in this case Barun) do much worse if she was the wife. This made me wonder about being on the other side. We have all, in our lifetimes, thought of marrying one celebrity crush v. another. In my case I have someone Irish in mind. But without digression, let me say that I considered what I would do if I was married to an actor and came up with the idea that I am not above stamping "Property of Mary Barton" on his head 🤣

Ok, not really.

What would you do if you were married to an actor? Let him act in romances and not get in the way of his creativity because you love him? Nothing is really romantic about shooting anyway so whatever it like Gauri? Tell him, no love scenes as your family will be watching? Let him only act in action flicks? Or like me, put a stamp on his head and let him go free - no girl's taking that cat!

This is all in fun. Don't take this too seriously.Thought it would be fun to consider people's responses. Just to clarify, in all seriousness, I would not get in the way of his job/creativity. I would actually be fine with no ring, after all a marriage is in the heart, not a piece of metal. If a husband cheated however, actor or not, there would be no mafi. I am not interested in putting up "for the kids" or anything else. Rumor is, many star wives in the country do.

Please respond,

Mary, pro-stamping.

If I was married to an actor, I would feel proud if I found out he's loved by some many fans. I would see no reason to feel insecure about it.

Romantic scenes are not shot the way we see it. They are surrounded by crew members, there are bright lights everywhere and multiple re-takes, shots are taken from different angles. It's basically a very mechanical thing.

Credit should be given to actors as they bring out the right emotions since the conditions are far for romantic.

As for Barun, may be he wears the ring by his choice and doesn't feel like taking it off.

He did take it off for a while...could be due to a lot of reasons, maybe he gave it to the jewelries, or had skin irritation, or something else...!!

It's only a ring. When I watch the show, all I see is ASR, I don't look at the ring as Barun Sobti's wedding ring. I don't understand why others can't do the same.

This doesn't affect his performance...why make a fuss about it ? 😳

3 words...
Brad and Angelina...

Where's my stamp?!!

Hahahaha, I gotta say I respect and LOVE Barun even more because you can tell how much he absolutely adores his wife! She must be one heck of a lady...How awkward must it be for her to see and hear of the chemistry between Sarun. I love the fact that they have total trust in one another.

If the trust is there then great! There'd be no reason to feel uncomfortable when he's doing love scenes. I for one don't think I'd be able to watch it with a straight face though 😆

I RESPECT him so much for not taking it off and the same with Sanaya Irani, she always has her engagement ring on but then that goes for DOUBLE for the production house and LM for not caring and letting it get in the way! I guess if they had a problem then both would take it off, but they don't and everyone wins! I think it's sweet that they're always wearing it!

If I married a celebrity! I don't know depends on the type of person, some celebrities are naturally flirtatious and true to the image of celebrities who date, date, date even with a wedding ring and what not. Whilst there are other celebrities who have the complete opposite nature, naturally reserved and aloof to the media and the hype - it depends entirely on the person. But marrying a celebrity comes with the territory no? I would be flattered if people swooned over my husband at the end of the day but even more proud if he could perform like Barun - yes I'm talking about Tuesday's emotional scenes!😍

If I was married to an actor, i would feel proud of him for his success and applaud his for his immense amount of patience. I watched a behind-the-scenes shot by telly tadka on youtube today and...By God! it takes so song to do so many retakes on such a small stretch of what we all see on screen. Def takes a lot of patience..personally, I don't think that I would ever have that kind of a patience. So, I genuinely admire and respect those who do have such patience and dedication to their careers!

Mary,
For me its all about the character he plays.I fell in love with ASR and slowly falling for Arnav.I am not in love with Barun...he is a great actor and with his personality he makes ASR stand class apart.Now regarding the ring...that's between Barun and his wife...Asr is single and ready to mingle😉hence my fantasy is well intact.

And if I had married an actor...don't we all know how hectic and pressurized an actor's life is...would do him immense help if I could lend him the emotional support he so desperately needs...what with millions of women drooling over him ...not to say guys too...and the never ending tight schedules.

One imp thing is that...If I had married an actor...I must have fallen for the guy behind the mask...and not for the one who captures many peoples interest.😊

Oh I just want to clarify. I am not trying to tell Barun what to do in regard to wearing the ring. I was speaking generally. As a viewer, I think it's better to put the ring around the neck, like many do in US dramas. But that's their private decision.

By the way, I posted the last part of Poolside, thought you would like to know 😃. Please comment if you read.

LMAO...what a post??!!! *shell shocked*

Well, my first ever indian tv actor crush was Shabir Ahluwalia...Did i mind that he got married recently??? Nope!! the craze only stays until the show is going good! I think i have learnt to differentiate the character from the actor. I guess i liked his character in the show more than him..🤣

i have seen this happening in many shows that i have enjoyed..Its not about the actor but the character!! you have a crush on the character..there is definitely a distinction! @ do i really mind that they wear their Wedding and Engagement rings!??! nope, not at all!! In india, people were rings even if they aren't married, so for me its personally not a big deal!! :D
