Props for Shashank Vyas & Surekha Sikri - Page 4

Agree. Shashank is emoting well. He has a complex character at his hand and he is carrying it out with a considerable finesse. In a way, if one still feel some empathy to this character, despite its inexcusable faults or insincerity, ironically, it's perhaps because of the Actor's sincerity to his work.

Even more ironically, as long as Jaga were screaming, flaunting or 'exploiting' their victim hood card, he was ending up evoking only a cynical disdain for his (their) opportunistic hypocrisy, but now when he is not exploiting it, we may still remember, he was indeed tossed twice in his childhood by the elders. ( also reminded of the original child Jagya). But again, today he has lost everything- deservedly so, for his abundant deceits and conceits were wrought by adult Jagya, entirely responsible for his actions. Annoyingly, he is still not cured of conceits; grieving his and only his 'losses', not truly repenting...indeed Shashank has a knotty part at his hand...

Mahi,

i disagree with your above view on character of Shiv.

i feel, his character from the beginning is moulded in such a way.,the character has a lot of DEPTH..., he is expected to step up to any kind of situation. he cannot falter even by a small bit in any kind of situation...he is larger than life... it is indeed very cumbersome for a writer to mould such a character as every one has an expectation from him come what may...he needs to be JUST always...so, i disagree that he is just a side kick or doesnot have entity other than being a new husband for Anandi...as much as the lead of the show is Anandi, she still needs to look up to him.,

Jagdish on the other hand is very easy to sketch...he has all the inconsistencies of a human being...they can play with him in any which way...he can be good, can be grey...or can turn entirely negative... but the point that i would like to make is., even if he repents and gets over all his bad traits., he can never be as good as Shiv.
