Like Chandra Nandini's Nandini, women warriors are usually Char Din Ki Chandni.I had no problems with the leads but I liked Karthika more as we have very less actress with dusky skin. Its misconception that North Indians are only fair and I hate when people say that. I am from UP but I am dusky not so dusky like Karthika but near to skin tone of Nia Sharma. People say that Aryan Invasion Theory is brought by the British to create fights between North and South. Koi mujhe bataayega how come Britishers know more about India than Indian themselves? How do you feel that the show has racism? The Dravidians are supposed to be dusky toned well not all of them but most of them. I watch PYPCK because in this show, the hero(V) is shown as a hero only aur villain(SD) ka kaam villain hi karta hai hero nahi. Also as strong, the heroine actually shown as strong and unique if we go by the standards of heroines on Indian Television. Some of the things she did will make her to be mistaken as a vamp by some people who are only used to see abusive male leads and Stockholm Syndrome heroines. I wish the show remain this way if it comes back with season 2 which every fans of this show wants. As for EktaKanta, I don't watch that show even though I like Madhurima and would not have watched the show even if Nia Sharma was selected as Chandrakanta because for me story matters more than the show. Imagine Gaurav and Kritika were cast in the most hyped and promoted show of Star Plus which only promotes humiliation and abuse of women with the excuse of revenge(for something she did unknowingly at the age of 6) then I would not have even looked at that show even if they were the actors from my favourite show PYPCK. I think the only grey to almost black female lead was the female lead of a TV show called Vishkanya where she could be mistaken as a vamp by anyone. I did not watched that show but itna to sabko pata hai. Just because she was not a man that character was hardly liked by anyone. There were very less people who liked that character. Chandrakanta of PYPCK does not come in that category till now but still some people may consider her as a vamp due to several things done by her which are not suited by the standards of a female lead in Indian Television.I wish Salil Sand is removed and someone else is brought in place of him to give TRPs. He can't play with people's feelings by giving wrong TRPs. How can shows that ranks above 8(out of 10) in IMDb ratings can get less than 1 TRP? Someone is really cheating with people.
Chandrakanta was the second strong heroine in LOK!!!!
Mainstream channels cannot have strong heroines ... period!!!!
