I am not here to say anything new, but just to relieve the incredible popularity and applauses that our KaSh have received over the last five years. When DMG stepped in at 8 30 pm 20th August 2007, no one ever thought that the bicker heads Armaan ❤️ Riddhima, played by Karan Singh Grover and Shilpa Anand respectively, would change the whole definition and meaning of youth based TV shows in Indian History.It was in no time that KaSh and the DMG then became a part and parcel of our daily life. Be it tuitions, parties, hanging out with friends, all were scheduled according to when DMG will be aired, and in some insane cases like me, the repeat episode for that matter too. 😆
If I go on about writing the KaSh craze, the thread will be over but I wont be done. So lets not go into that. I just wanted all of us to once again go thru the phenomenal successes our KaSh have received in the years gone by.Their popularity have received such heights today that even after them being away from TV since 2010, media houses do not cease to stop talking about them. If I may say so, there exists competition between media houses on who would publish articles on them,or more interestingly, air their interview. The one that is first is the sheer shot winner.👍🏼
Individually both are highly talented actors, but when they are together, nothing can stop them from setting the screen on fire. Be it a meer eye lock, or a sensuous scene, they have always managed to captivate and mesmerize the audience. The innocence and purity which they portrayed on screen quenched the hunger of "HOT scenes" as is demanded often by youngsters these days. Nevertheless, steamy scenes were never needed much to draw audience. Hence, when the first sensuous scene was shot, it was and to this day, remains a moment to cherish for the youngsters.😳
In today's world where lovers propose each other with red rose, gathering a crowd around or in a private dinner, KaSh confession was as AR was an "epic". No gorgeous get up, no mushiness, no stereotypical romantic set up, heck no background music. All we had was the two actors effortlessly playing the much-in-love young doctors.Four years into the making of that scene, even to this media Valentine's Day is never celebrated without reminiscing the KaSh AR confession. ❤️
If I may mention, as opposed to the cliched candle light or disco dates, KaSh AR date was in the basketball court, with their basketball, and KaSh Baarish...☺️
When Shilpa left DMG in 2008, after the initial shock and mourning, we realized that KaSh have such an unseperable part of our life that we cant live without them. Having realized this, KaShians immediately ran after Production house Cinevistaas, Channel and all Media Houses, requesting, begging for KaSh.Needless to say, even though KaSh was not there for two years, KaShians did not let anyone forget them. At least KaSh owes this much to us.Constant comments in their fanclubs kept their ranks high. Shilpa was at number one along with Karan when KaSh was not on screen in 2009!!!Absence of KaSh gave birth to myriads of fanfiction writers, Vm and siggie makers, helping each other to live and cherish the moments KaSh gave us. Not to forget, KaSh Heaven became the second home of KaShians, with our KaSh encouraging us at each step of the way.KaShians have been saluted all through for their continuous effort and patience, facing and fighting every hurdle that comes on their way.All these pictures remain the same till date.
After Shilpa came back, things could never have been better. Instead of AR, we had ArSh this time. Being the versatile actor our KaSh are, they were accepted in the new way even before Shilpa came back.The world stood still as Shilpa Malhotra hit Armaan Mallik with a rod. It was never AR or ArSh, for KaShians it was always KaSh, that is why be it AR, BR or CR, ArSh, BrSh or CrSh, KaSh can pull through any characters u put them in. As Expected, soon the love story of the now senior doctor and the new intern started doing the rounds.
After the abrupt change and final demise of DMG,even today KaSh have managed to make their way to the Top most TV celebrities of Indian TV. In a world where on screen jodis become "outdated" after one show, KaSh have maintained the position amidst tough competition over the years.Kind who were teenagers then now are grown up enough to send gifts for their beloved KaSh, yet KaSh themselves remain timeless.
KaSh success has not been confined to TV only, soon after the end of DMG, both managed to grab amazing offers from Bollywood, media houses once again continuing to chant about their success.
Needless to say once again, their soaring popularity has been reflected in their fat paychecks also.😆
As I always say,
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us..( Charles Dickens)
No matter what,KaSh would always remain special. After the disastrous end of ArSh track, there cannot be anything worse that can befall on KaShians. We got our couple twice, and neither of the times did we get a "And they lived happily ever after "end.So we don't have anything to lose now.Now we can only have the best.
But the question is:
Will anyone give us the Best?
Will anyone save us from the torment of being unfairly deprived of our favourite?
Will anyone give us justice?
Will our KaSh ever get properly depict their onscreen chemistry and set the TV on fire?
Will their impeccable chemistry always remain a matter for cherishment only?
Will anyone ever hear our voices?
Will anyone ever ponder about relieving the unfathomable success KaSh have received as AR and ArSh?
Is anyone listening?
If anyone is, then here is what we want to say..
Thank u Minaal, Poo and Nori for the articles, Virina for the siggie.. 🤗
