The Krishna that we all love and I had come to watch was unique because:
he was a strong, charismatic personality
a tough guy but not a thug - using influence only when clear motive was available but not seeking to intimidate or terrorize for the sheer pleasure of the kill.
a character who unlike stereotypical leads showed an engaging display and mix of brawn and brains in a very strategic manner - he used his brawns with people who were weak and susceptible and used his brains to achieve the same effect with people who were not easily intimidated by the threat or use of force.
SO WHAT HAPPENED TODAY -
July 16th epi - KRISHNA WAS SHOWN AS A WHINER TODAY😡😡 Check out Notes on Page 8!!!!!!
😡
Epi of July 15 - KRISHNA WAS SHOWN AS A RUN OF THE MILL STREET SIDE THUG TODAY😡😡
the scene between him and the lawyer did not make sense for the following reasons:
a) he asked the lawyer for water😕. he is not your average street side thug. Krishna would have asked the workers or the owner of the stall. So his reason for engaging the lawyer in itself was unreal and illogical.
b) him taking on the lawyer for a glass of water and using his father's name for $15 damage😕😕😕. have we ever known Krishna to use his father's name before in this manner. I maybe wrong but I have never heard him use his father's name to intimidate anyone. He understands the value of the association but relies on his own strength, wit and reputation to get results. If this was not the case then instead of the 'krishna, krishna, Krishna'music we would eb hearing 'SS ka beta, SS ka beta, SS ka beta'music, right.
c) he decides to punch the lawyer in the face for this silly incident 😕😕😕
I DON'T GET IT
Messing with krishna's character (i.e. lap dog, subservient husband, driver, etc) for the sake of the glorificaiton of the lead (Pratigya) is understandable and we as Krishna fans can even tolerate it and hope for some resolution in future but messing with Krishna's character in order to allow a supportign character to make an entry into the show is just being inconsiderate of the krishna fan base.
WHY ARE THE CREATIVES DOING THIS
Is it because
a) Arhaan's personality and acting and Krishna's charisma and appeal is considered so strong that the CVs feel that continuous and unncessary tamperment will not diminish it or impact its popularity
or
b) are we being conned like we were with the eve-teasign issue - which was never the crux of the show but just the appetizer to draw us in. Is Krishna's popularity now impacting the female lead's credibility and popularity in such a manner that the Krishna characte will gradually be phased out and replace with the lawyer character who was never intended to be the secondary character (as billed) but rather the successor for Pratigya's attention. is the plan to have a new best jodi available for SPA next year😕
Either way I look at it Krishna's involvement and interaction today was misaligned with the orginal character sketch and end of day either option presented above has only one consequence - KRISHNA FANS ARE BEING SHAFTED IN RETURN FOR THEIR LOYALTY AND PATRONAGE
Guys:
I started this post not to talk of plot of the day becasue honestly today was a wasted epi for this viewer and definitely not worth debating for its merits
I started this thread so CVs know that their sneaky tricks, their butchering of our beloved character and their deviation from realism in their storyline is not going unobserved.
we are observing, disliking and now expressly noting their inconsideration and goof ups.
I plan on ressurecting this thread whenever krishna's character is butchered in any epi and making note
that way both we and the CVs can see how many times Krishna's character is being butchered to glorify other characters.
Hope
