Nice post AA... As few people like Shri, AY have told, I don't see why the comparison between RK and Sultan at all and who should Madhu go with, at all... This show is not madhubala ka swayamvar with the "May the best man win" tag
The vibe I got from the initial promos , apart from the madhu becoming heroine bit, was that this story is all about RK-Madhu's tumultuous relationship...
The story from the start has been all about their action and reactions(newton uncle's 3rd law comes in very handy😆), how the various layers to RK's character gets unravelled through this journey, how Madhu perceives it, reacts to it, inducing a counter from RK and this keeps going on... And the makers have always weaved their story as poetic drama which makes it an interesting watch
The powerplay between them, only they both can match upto each other in terms of their craziness, passions, games, stubbornness, ego,etc... The only difference between them ,as RK himself stated, is that Madhu does not have a K in her name where as he has...
As AY has stated, RK is a gamer, but madhu is no less when challenged... If RK asks are you game for it to Madhu, Madhu does not back out... She goes ahead, challenges him at every step, gives him a barabar ki takkar...She impresses him, gets impressed by him, copies him, his dialogues, and most importantly gives it back to him also in his own style with interest(soot-samedh)... All this becomes mazedaar for me to watch it as a piece of fiction...
Actually speaking, I don't know if one has observed, Madhu gets the kick in life(in south India, we say kick.. can't think of a more appropriate word, may be it can be said as josh, but it is not the exact synonym) only when she is with RK(fighting, loving,hurting, etc,etc) otherwise she would be the monotonous, boring simpleton..
If the last two episodes, are taken into account, Madhu might have been smiling, laughing and playing house-house with Aryan/Sultan but there was that x-factor missing...
The moment RK comes into the picture, the equation changes... tadka gets added... the equation becomes just the two of them, the whole world forgotten... And I as a viewer gets carried away... And now that's what I call it as magic... One cannot argue with RK-madhu having history coz in their first meeting itself, this was established and felt by me.
ETA: @Shri, AY: Loved your responses to each other's posts...
