I think I have said my mind in my earlier post. I found it odd not because Vivbiz relationship. There is nothing to do with Vivbiz. It's about abhay and panchi who aren't close friends. So why it's the point of hugging or half hugging. I think piya needed it more as she was more sad. and I dont think misha would mind. Ok, I am signing off from this topic. Already cleared what I wanted to say and it's about onscreen not offscreen.
I guess some dear ppl here fail to understand the TMs nd the averages reason for dislike of this matter:
it doesnt matter why or how the hug or half hug was, if it was right or wrong etc, thats not the issue. maybe some ppl can be completely fine whatever that goes on. but for those average attached viewers it gets hard to connect when they r constantly reminded of how something is just reel nd how the real is focused instead without beeing of importance for the show. so ofcourse will they be affected, since its attached feelings to a fiction in escape of our daily lifes we r talking abt here, if we were supposed to be totally indifferent to everything,so whats the point of watching a show, we r trying our best to get lost n attached to a story alike Abhay n Piyas nd the least attached viewers need is to put energy to even balance between real n reel, thats not their job, viewers r here to be entartained not to go through a pshycolgy course of reel n reals right n wrong nd deal nd diffrentiation. Its creatives nd actors job to undetstand their attached viewers nd in this special case when the actors private life is so involved with his everyday proffesion atleast if they havnt been able to balance the offscreen at least keep the onscreen as much away from viewers beeing reminded of the offscreen with even the simplest scene like the one mentioned. let be this hug, just having the trio in one frame is sensitive right now, at least for a while, dealing nd undetstanding it is creatives job nd not the viewers whos aim is to build up a strong attachment to connect with what this story is trying to deliver nd whats the success in a creatives work. So having reality distracting it will for sure affect them, specialy when the real has become more off a daily, weekly show for itself. So giving techinal explanations is of no use here. Its rather understanding thats important, specially that i can see the average fans express their dislike within borders of possible maturness which usually cases even less sensitive alike this one doesnt involve. so great spirit by the die hard fans.[/B]

It was odd. Infact , she seemed a little cuckoo to me in that scene. Hugging Abhay , hugging Sid over and over and being all gregarious and happy. Its not Pancchi's personality. She looked 'HIGH' to me in that scene. LOL. And Abhay' s reaction to the hug was flat and dry. It made it all the more weird.
Director saahab, apne actor ko character mein rakho. Misha or Tracker hugging Abhay makes sense , not Pancchi.
sugaryanu : You said it better than me 'You dont necessarily have to wrap your arms around someone to qualify it as a hug. That was a one side hug or if you believe it wasn't but she was definitely being 'clingy.' For me it definitely looked like a Quick and excited Hug.
You are right Pocahontas. That gesture was definitely not in the Personality of the Panchi Character and like many others I too felt that she was out of character.
I agree with ZuniZ that it is very essential for the Creatives to build an attachment with the Story and Lead Characters and not get the viewers distracted by anything else. if the reality is distracting the viewers it would definitely affect the Show.
sanchitaroy : You are absolutely right. The Panchi character was never as free with Abhay earlier nor is Abhay friendly towards her. He has always been indifferent towards Panchi, Tracker and Kabir. The only person he has shown some feeling is Misha and she too never hated him from the very beginning. I would say that even though there is a bond between them even Misha hugging him would have looked odd because that is not in her character. But I guess if Tracker or T would have done it then they are perfectly in Character.
And abhayfan_dishu, I agree with your mountain out of a mole hill statement. Yes, This is a very Petty thing. This Serial is full of Bloopers from the very beginning and comparatively this is nothing. But mixing real with reel combined with the numerous Bloopers can affect the Show.
Having said all these, If people here have read my comments on the Bashing Posts of ViVa then you would see that I am someone who always defend for them because I believe that what an Actor or Actress does in his personal life is his/her own Business. The Viewers/Fans have no business interfering in it. My objection is only when I see personal and professional being mixed up. I genuinely felt the gesture as odd and expressed it. And from the responses I can see that I am not alone and only a minority felt that it was okay.

The responsibility should be shared dear. If the viewers are dumb, the creatives cannot be expected to be Einstein. I am sure, if it had been someone else in Vahbbiz's place, people wouldn't have even bothered to engage in this worthless debate. The problem is viewers couldn't properly vent out their frustrations at ViVah relationship - that is why they would look for even tiniest of excuses to play the blame game.
I watched that scene 4 times and none of the times did I find it odd from any angle. If you want to see weirdness in such a minuscule matter, then you'll see it anyway. And what are you trying to suggest - that Vivian and Vahbbiz should never share the same frame, just because some dimwit viewers might not take that kindly? Wouldn't that be unprofessional in the first place?
Getting attached with a character/couple is a one thing. But expecting that an onscreen couple should marry offscreen as well is stupidity, not fandom.
In yesterday's episode, it was Panchi, who gave a casual cheer-up gesture to Abhay and Piya - yes, it was not meant for Abhay exclusively. Piya was standing on the other side of Abhay, by the wall, perhaps that's why she didn't bother to hug her individually. Why can't you see it this way?
Why on earth would Vahbbiz improvise that millisecond hug on her own? What would she gain by sharing screen space with her boyfriend for a fraction of second? Would she dethrone Piya and become the lead actress? Does these theories make sense!
If the viewers are affected by such nonsense issues, it's their own fault and not the creative's or actors'.
