-Sneha was the second lead to Shakti+Amar, she was the antagonist so obviously she will get less scenes than the above 2... Even now she is turned to be protogonist and lead female she can't be put before Amar because the contract was to set Amar/Shakti in the first place... so I can't blame cvs on this...
-D3 is a youth show where light comedy is a main factor in the show... Sharon is the only character who is not too much into comedy because she is a girl with ego... so obviously she will be missing in most comedy scenes... just try to recall when she was missing, u will realize that only that happened in epis full of comedy... whereas the rest specially the guys who has better sense of humor were always involved in those scenes... personally, I don't prefer to see her in many comedy scenes coz it doesn't suite her elegant character'''. so, again, I can't blame cvs on this...
-Sneha had one solo and Shantanu will have his first solo tmrw... Aaja Aaja was not supposed to be a solo of him; cvs was forced to make him perform alone due to Sneha's illness... so, he is not getting more than her in term of acknowledging his stand-alone abilities as a dancer''. He only has more dues/group dancing coz the character has good relations with all other characters, specially the leads, whereas Sharon had good relations with only with dazzlers, and Rey from the 3 leads'' so obviously she will have less dues/group dance'..
-Regarding the classical dance, don't forget that Sharon is not into traditional/classical things'.. she is more into western art'.. how can she perform classical then!!... it will sound inconsistent with the character'''.. unless it is a dream sequence '
Yes, Vrinda had many dance sequences which can't be justified according to her character that doesn't know or love dancing... Here cvs contradict themselves by showing a non-dancer character performs frequently more than the better dancers...
-Frankly speaking, when Palki realized the potential in linking Sharon, who is actually the antagonist lead, with Swayam, who just has a small role in the show, she dared to turn them to one of D3 leads... this shows that she is not bias... actually cvs should get the credit of making us love Sharon by giving her interesting character and powerful script alongside the impactful portrayal from Sneha...
-Personally, I don't see Sharon alone set Swaron apart... because I've seen similar characters in different dramas... kdrama, American, latine and Turkish... so it didn't sound new for me, however this kind of characters r always interesting and treat to watch...
I see what set Swaron apart r 4 points...
#combine egoist girl with a week guy, I haven't seen such a couple before because always egoist girls' r coupled with other egoist guys... Characters like Swayam were never made leads or coupled with strong characters like Sharon...
#Shan's unique portrayal of Swayam... because he doesn't look like, act like or sounds like the rest lead actors, his portrayal were different from theirs... I felt it was more believable and honest...
#Sneha's powerful portrayal of Sharon... Her character is not an easy one due to lack of monologues; however she was always able to make us connect perfectly with Sharon...
#Moreover, the script was strong and able to keep each of Swayam and Sharon unpredictable from time to time...
Sharon/Sneha only could get out the best of Swayam/Shan and vice versa...
-I don't think actors popularity is very affected by the gender... for example MJHT, Rati was the most popular, even more than the male leads... so it's not about the gender... It's about the character and the actor performance... though Sneha act very well, her charcter is not the type that most viewers love to watch... Nupur was bubly, funny girl that's y most fans loved her... but Sharon is more of complex, serious one and people don't like such characters a lot... same goes to Swayam/Rey... they r more funny that's why fans love them more...
-To be honest, I don't see either Sharon or Swaron r sidelined now''. Before, yes but u can understand the reason as they were not supposed to be leads according to the first contract but after Kriya's exit they r getting a good screen space''.. Even some epis were completely dedicated to them only'.. Sharon is always on tagline of the channel but still Swayam doesn't appear frequently''.. but will cvs keep this once TaRey is established? I have my fears honestly'.
-I don't mind less screen space for Sharon as long as her scenes r equal or even better to other's in terms of quality'' coz always quality matter more than quantity'.
Also I never mind the lack of her monologues because it gives us the space to think and analyze her thoughts'. This way we could read very beautiful posts and know members with great knowledge and mentality, it shows that cvs respect our intelligence by not narrating everything'. And proves that Sneha is able to be challenged by cvs '..
I feel cvs r fair by giving qualities to each character'.. Sharon with her mysterious acts'. Swayam with his bookish dialogues'.. and the rest too have their own qualities'.. Only Taani is still lacking of good qualities'
