There is something about Rehaan IMP. Note Pg 6 - Page 3

Tia!! You made a post, and that too on ehh uhm, Rehaan?!! 😆
Anyways, sorry, I just got distracted for a moment. I mean I am just commenting here because YOU made a post, coz Rehaan posts for me are well, no comments 😆
And you say you love MY rants?! TBH I loved your rant. LIKE TOTALLY!! It sounded like you understood his character SO MUCH BETTER than himself or the CVs whatever.
Each aspect was so well described. I literally have nothing more to say, if there would have been, the replies here completed that, awesome discussion it was 👏
And yeah, for the pun, and you say I talk in double meanings?! 😆

Coming to his character. What i feel he is AN IMMENSELY WEAK character. First of all, maybe he was never given the proper time to explore him, or make audience to explore him. I mean I was never able to properly connect with him.

First he was shown, a brother like figure for Aahil, and whom Aahil trusts sabse jyada. Rehan knows Aahil better than Aahil himself has ever known, He knows Aahil's temperaments, he knows how he behaves, he knows he acts, he knows he has a heart and a soft interior with a rude exterior.

I used to love their bonding actually in the initial days and I so wanted to see a bro code here between the both.

The most favorite part of me their convos has to be the one when Aahil beat up that waiter and Rehan came to calm him and told him why do you behave like this you know you are not what you show to the world. Aap bure nahi hain Aahil bhai. I mean I so loved Rehaan there. Like he knows so much about him, he is like the protector of him, its really good to see someone in whom Aahil could really rely and trust. Plus Rehan was not like Aahil is his boss and he should respect him and do what he wants him to do. He showed Aahil what he is actually!

What I din't get, how and when his character lost his essence and touch, or lost what he should have been. Maybe CVs din't really pay the attention to him, to develop his character?

The one thing I caught about his character is, he was all "Aahil bhai ache hain" everytime Sanam has asked him about him. But these were before when he fell in love with her? I don't know why do I feel that after falling in love, his only concern remained as of his love. I mean its okay to be possessive about one's love but when you don't even know the same feelings are reciprocated or not?!! How can you even do that?
I mean that was THE MOST stupidest part of him I have came across. He just ASSUMED that she loves him back? With those little cute talks they had, and kinda friendship they have developed, like really?! Plus he din't even give any signs to her that he loves her? Yeah he might have got some "signs" from her that made him think like that?! How stupid is that? I mean he can crush on her yes but thinking she too has a crush, not digesting.

Then his character turned a little I guess, he din't think about Aahil as he used to do before. After the marriage, there was hardly any scene of them both having a good chat, a heart to heart, a bro thing. The last good convo they had was when Aahil sensed that Rehan is in love. And he used to say, HE knows Aahil better? Yeah right?! I mean Aahil git hint just how he was smiling looking at the moon. Aahil who hardly smiles, or maybe never HE came ti know with just a smile of his Bro? Could you even imagine how close he would have been to Rehan?! :)

And Rehan. He couldn't see his bro's pain, tears, his eyes which spoke so much of love? He wasn't able to see how his behaviour has changed suddenly? Or maybe he was too blinded by his love for her that he din't want to see that?

I wanted to see a convo where Rehan realises Aahil is in love and he talks him out. And I also wanted to see Aahil FIRST confides this to him!

Rehan, he unconsciously blamed Aahil that as it was his fault to marry Sanam, that office convo was so the indication to that because of which Aahil feels it is actually HIS fault. Aahil is already so vulnerable.

Rehan says he knows Aahil very well, then why din't he was able to see that little hidden sorry he said when the ring came to Aahil and he picked it up and looked at Rehan? Why he din't see those words he said in fornt of the lawyer? Why he din't see the jealousy creeping up in him?

He was blinded by his love for Sanam. And as they say love is blind. Rehan was also blind. Until when the last convo happened and he might have opened his eyes seeing Aahil in such a condition for the first time, he came to know that his Aahil bhai is actually in love,

Was this post even a little bit understandable?! 😆 I told already, Rehan is meh for me, thats what I have come up with his characterisation.

Yeah, I agree with you on all the points, but the thing is, ive never actually had much of an interest in Rehaan apart from thinking that he was an adorable little thang before the SaHil marriah, I don't know why to be honest- maybe its because of the amount of time I invest in loving Aahil? Idk.

Same here Suds. I thought Rehaan is equivalent to NK aka Nand Kishore of IPKKND. The actor playing the character was handsome, good looking and cute. He was in love with Khushi, but he got over it when Khushi got married to Arnav. His love was just like Rehaan out of blue happened like Blast one fine day. But he got over it, when Khushi married Arnav. So I thought Rehaan is similar to that character.

I'm not bashing the character or anything, seriously, and I love shehzad, he makes me vomit rainbows, he's adorable <3

I just don't get what the creatives want to do with Rehaan's character, whether they want for him to grow as a character in the show or if they want to keep him as someone who is there to tie up loose threads that the creatives don't know what to do with.

Tell me about it. Before the graveyard scene Rehaan was no where in the picture and was never given any proper scene. Even after that the revelation that he is Tanveer's son he did not have any major screen presence. But just 2-3 days before SaHil's marriage, he suddenly discovers Love like Newton's Law of Gravity and he without even bothering to know about Sanam's feelings towards him went to Badi Ammi to seek Sanam's hand in marriage. Most ppl were like "Oh that is so sweet" Ok that was very sweet. Fine I agree. Lets assume after seeking permission from Badi Ammi, Rehaan gets the opportunity to proposes Sanam, and Sanam replies "Sorry Rehaanji, I have some duties to fulfill towards my family. I want to get Haya operated and secure Badi Ammi's future only then I will think of marriage." Rehaan would have got dejected but would have agreed unwillingly. But Badi Ammi after knowing this would have definitely insisted Sanam to get married to Rehaan as Badi Ammi wouldn't want anything other than seeing Sanam settled and would have pressurized Sanam putting her in delicate position. Wouldn't it had been right for Rehaan to know that how Sanam feels about him?? I mean just b'cos he fell in love with Sanam, it doesn't mean Sanam would feel the same way towards him.?? For example I love my frnd, but it doesn't mean I will marry him, as soon as he proposes me!! I mean some frnds are better in frnd zone. While only few get out of the frnd zone to become life partners. This theory is applicable to both the sexes.

Oh that point- Rehaan not telling Aahil what Tanveer is doing, what she's been doing to him- pisses me off so much.

Me Too!!

Ugh! Rehaan dude, he's your brother bb, his life is already f**ked up as it is, don't let Tanveer continue with her shit!

It's like Rehaan cares but not to the extend. He wants nothing bad to happen to Aahil and he does not want his Ammi to do anything bad, but he will still keep quiet, as long as his life runs smoothly without any hackles. Like when Tanveer was accusing Sanam of theft, Rehaan felt bad, but did not care to raise his voice. But later was lamenting that Begum Sahiba shouldn't have done that to Sanam.

I get that she is his ammi, but at the end of the day, he should know that what ever his ammi is doing- it is worlds of bad- and he needs to do something to stop it.

As I said Parents are not always right.

Later when Aahil tried to clear the confusion with Rehaan in the office he lashed out at Aahil saying that he shouldn't have got married to Sanam as though it was Aahil's fault??!! I mean come on Rehaan himself confessed later on that Aahil is being played by Tanveer then what was the point of Shouting at Aahil as though Aahil was the person who forced Sanam to marry him like Arnav did to Khushi??!! Why didn't Rehaan then open his mouth and tell Aahil about Tanveer's true intention

This. Everything up there. ^^ yes to all of it.

If they had spent more time carving out his character, then I think I would've paid attention to his scenes, with actual interest for the story line, not just for shehzad's acting.

People don't kill me pls.

It's like suddenly just for the sake of bringing in the twist the concept writer woke up one day and said Chalo let's make Rehaan fall in love with Sanam so that Tanveer gets the idea of marrying Sanam to Aahil instead. Before that Rehaan's character held no importance at all. He was equivalent to Shazia and Nazia.

Relax no one is gonna kill you. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. Dare someone lay hand on you. I will kill them first. You are my friend after all.🤗

But still i' d like to say that its a commendable job by CVs that that have not turned him negative ... he had all the ingredients of becoming a negative character back story brother clash.. love jealousy etc etc ... but he has remained positive n i would love to see him remain positive... for a change...

Yes b'cos CV's need someway to put an end to Tanveer. So they will make Rehaan redeem himself by exposing Tanveer one day. Or else Tanveer is Invincible.😆

I have nothing much to say anymore.

I hate it when Rehaan keeps mum about her mother's evil nature inspite of knowing her inside out. Not only this he Hides this secret from everyone. Now that is a crime.

He is a very weak character, I hate weak characters. He never did anything to claim his love before Sanam got married.

True that.

@Bold. I don't know about claiming. But atleast he should have made sure that Sanam garners same feelings for him, before going and seeking her hand in marriage from Badi Ammi. It may be sweet that he actually gave respect to Badi Ammi by doing so. But at the end of the day it's Sanam whom he wanted to marry, so her approval is of utmost importance. Just b'cos he fell in love dos not mean Sanam would have fallen for him too.

i agree with you...in my view rehan is very weak ..just because he looks cute and bechara type here forum people over looking his flaws..
his one positive point is till now he did not don anything negative...
and also an actor he has always limited expression..so i cant feel anything about him..
i really hope finding past,joining sisters plot mainly have aahil..so we can see lot of emotions...

@Bold...We are so much on the same page. In many scenes I find the actor fall flat. I know he is a new comer and have not been given enuff screen space to improve and the character has not been developed properly. Then why built up hopes of showing him as parallel lead?? First develop the character then give him the due importance. CV's are so much in fault over here.

I agree with SheAish, also Rehaan does not know that his Ammi has killed people.

All he knows is his Ammi is greedy for wealth, went to jail for Ahil, he does not know that it is his Ammi who actually killed Ahil's father.

So I also don't like him not standing up for Ahil but look at his position, he has not status, Ahil treats him sometime like a brother and now like a servant.

His own mother does not publicly acknowledges him as her son.

I love Rehaan and feel that he will stand up for the right things when he sees his own Ammi trying to kill someone.

I think u might have misunderstood my comment a bit since it was a copy paste from another post I made on another thread.
Basically what I mean is that all this appreciation and adoration going on for rehan is because he is shown as the typical good guy who is mostly just a spectator to everything happening around him. BUT knowing his mothers intentions towards Ahil AS IN THE PROPERTY ISSUE and doing NOTHING about it IS VERY WRONG.
Also in the hospital scene rehan had a flash back about his mom saying that she never loved nawab children but acted so but always loved rehan. And his apathy while ahil was dying showed that he doesn't care that much about him and that is why he categorically never tried to stop his mom. He has stood up to his mom for sanam because he cares but not for ahil.

I think he is WEAK in character and actually UNWORTHY of all this appreciation going on for him in the forum currently and people are just overlooking this EVEN THOUGH REHAN knows his moms intentions and hatred for ahil.

Ok I think you are quite right. I guess cvs couldn't shape up the rehan character well or they are just confused whether to make him positive or negetive. There was a time when I used to like rehan. He was a big support of ahil . But now I don't see that thing. I mean now he seems like he don't like ahil much. Obviously he didn't show it off...but don't know why I think from inside he is kind of angry with ahil. During ahil in hospital he seemed more concerned about sanam rather than ahil, he was like well i don't care if he is alive or not...and then when ahil was about to fall during getting up from bed, he didn't even had urge to hold him. It was only sanam who held ahil. And to be honest his typical love with sanam was wierd. I mean he never tried to know her feelings. Nor did he tried to stop sahil niqah! I think he stayed back even after sahil niqah cause in the hope of getting sanam back! And if he really thought like this way then what made him think that sanam will come back to him? And now seher...I don't think he will be able to love her, I mean seher face just matches with sanam and even if he doesn't want he will always try to find sanam in her. And obviously seher for her life time will keep on questioning him if he loves her or sanam! Then sister rivalry. So in my opinion rehan is not deserving for both sanam and seher. And now again coming to his character...cvs need to decide whether he will be positive or negetive or grey! I suggest grey will be better with the way they are proceeding his character.

Wow such a long post... Nice one 😊

Okayyy there r 2 or 3 things which i have understood about Rehans character which id like to point out

1) Both these boys Aahil n Rehaan love their mom like anything (before Sanam came into their lives) They r blinded by her love.. i dont know whether u guys remember or not but when during Aahil Sanam apology scene before 4 days challenge When Sanam came to talk to Rehan he said " Aahil bhai to kya begum Sahiba k khilaf mein b Aik lafz nahi sun sakta , jis tara unhone mujh jese insan ko yateem khane se is ghar mein laa kar ehsan kia hia is ghar ka hissa banaya hai" etc

2) Considering the fact tht she is his real mom n Aahil just a namesake brother definitely his loyalties would be with his mom ... Yes he knows about her mom's evil plans n all but if u assess him neutrally ( n not from Aahil's fan point of view) its quite understable that even though he used to love and respect Aahil a lot still not to the point that he can go against his mom... that is a weak point of his character i admit but its quite understandable

3) After Aahil Sanam nikaah the equations between Aahil Rehan is totally changed n that too is relatable ... if on one hand Aahil feels insecure about Rehan thats totally justifiable as he knows Rehan's feelings n now recently he has started treatig him as an employer ... well i can say with such changed equations n what he presumed aboutt Rehan Sanam it is understandable as well... Coming to Rehan he is seeing the woman he loves so close to another man who even though a person whom he has always respected as an elder brother still its not easy... N now recently he has seen Sanam getting fond of Aahil n all so it would have definitely affected his relationship ... And we have seen numerous cases of brothers getting seperated afetr marriages n all , n these 2 dont even share blood

But i do agree with u that if he cannot Tell Aahil about his mother's plans he can confront Tanveer n he knows that HE IS THE ONLY WEAK POINT OF TANVEER... if he wants to cash it he can do... this thing is totally not justifiable...

First of all thanks for your comment. It is very refreshing to see the character and learn about him from your pov. Agreed Rehaan loved his Ammi and would never go against her. He holdes candle for her and all.

But the same Ammi dearest when told her son dearest that "No Beta you can't marry Sanam as she is not worthy of you." The same son who couldn't hear a single word against his Ammi told her, I mean literally Told Her, that he will marry only Sanam and no one else, weather she agrees or not. Then Tanveer said to Rehaan that he should give some time to Tanveer to think about this as this the matter of whole life as it's the Marriage he is talking about, and Rehaan was like "No Ammi I can't wait. I want Sanam and I want her ASAP. I will propose to her tomorrow itself and will get married to her. With or without your blessings." These dialogues of Rehaan made him Son OF the Year that day. Then at the hospital when Tanveer and Rehaan goes to see Badi Ammi. As soon as he saw Sanam he jerked off Tanveer's hand and walked towards Sanam to ask her, her well being where as it was BAdi Ammi and Aahil who were hospitalized. But still he is asking Sanam is she alright??!! Really Rehaan is a very Nice Son. 👏

About Aahil and Rehaan's changed equation. Yes it is relatable. But venting out his frustration on Aahil while he was trying to take the initiative of trying to clear the confusion and misunderstanding amicably and jumping up and down when Aahil took His legally wedded wife to His room, as though he owned Sanam. During Eid too it was Aahil who initiated the hug where as he was still apprehensive. For what he held such a grudge towards Aahil. It's not like Aahil is holding Sanam in his captivity against her will. Aahil did not force Sanam to marry him.

I don't know what else to say.

Anyways, sorry, I just got distracted for a moment. I mean I am just commenting here because YOU made a post, coz Rehaan posts for me are well, no comments 😆

Aww aren't you the sweetest. Come here You🤗

And you say you love MY rants?! TBH I loved your rant. LIKE TOTALLY!! It sounded like you understood his character SO MUCH BETTER than himself or the CVs whatever.
Each aspect was so well described. I literally have nothing more to say, if there would have been, the replies here completed that, awesome discussion it was 👏

You love my rants, I love your. We are self-appointed Moderators/President of each other's Fan Club. 🤣
And yeah, for the pun, and you say I talk in double meanings?! 😆
Tumse hi double-meaning seekha hai.😉

Coming to his character. What i feel he is AN IMMENSELY WEAK character. First of all, maybe he was never given the proper time to explore him, or make audience to explore him. I mean I was never able to properly connect with him.

Hear Hear. Well Said👏 Word Sister.

First he was shown, a brother like figure for Aahil, and whom Aahil trusts sabse jyada. Rehan knows Aahil better than Aahil himself has ever known, He knows Aahil's temperaments, he knows how he behaves, he knows he acts, he knows he has a heart and a soft interior with a rude exterior.

I used to love their bonding actually in the initial days and I so wanted to see a bro code here between the both.

The most favorite part of me their convos has to be the one when Aahil beat up that waiter and Rehan came to calm him and told him why do you behave like this you know you are not what you show to the world. Aap bure nahi hain Aahil bhai. I mean I so loved Rehaan there. Like he knows so much about him, he is like the protector of him, its really good to see someone in whom Aahil could really rely and trust. Plus Rehan was not like Aahil is his boss and he should respect him and do what he wants him to do. He showed Aahil what he is actually!

Yes, the hotel wala scene and do you remember another scene when Aahil gets disturbed seeing a man whipping himself. That was the first time Aahil gets the falshback of his horrid past and Rehaan runs behind him and tries knowing the reason for Aahil getting so much disturbed. He wanted to share Aahil's sorrows and wanted him to open up to him and lighten his heart's burden. But Aahil lashed out at him, but still he remained undeterred and continued supporting him. It's the same Rehaan who went all the way to Punjab with the car to get Aahil Bhai back home. Such was their Chemistry. Even when Aahil did not say anything he was like Aahil Bhai are you disturbed.?? Aahil Bhai are you Sad?? Aahil Bhai You seem happy?!! But now Rehaan is all about Sanam are you Ok.!! Sanam is everything fine?? Sanam do you want anything??

What I din't get, how and when his character lost his essence and touch, or lost what he should have been. Maybe CVs din't really pay the attention to him, to develop his character?

CV's still don't know what they want to do with Rehaan.

The one thing I caught about his character is, he was all "Aahil bhai ache hain" everytime Sanam has asked him about him. But these were before when he fell in love with her? I don't know why do I feel that after falling in love, his only concern remained as of his love. I mean its okay to be possessive about one's love but when you don't even know the same feelings are reciprocated or not?!! How can you even do that?
I mean that was THE MOST stupidest part of him I have came across. He just ASSUMED that she loves him back? With those little cute talks they had, and kinda friendship they have developed, like really?! Plus he din't even give any signs to her that he loves her? Yeah he might have got some "signs" from her that made him think like that?! How stupid is that? I mean he can crush on her yes but thinking she too has a crush, not digesting.

My feelings Exactly. Ok I get it. He feel in love but what about Bro Code. As far as I know guys, they value their Bro Code much more than the girls. Yes there are men who become possessive and center their world around the girl they love forgetting rest of the world. But when Rehaan can see that Sanam is all praise for Aahil these days then why still keep running to her. I mean Sanam praised Aahil in front of Rehaan and Rehaan is like "Yes Aahil Bhai does unexpected things sometimes." I mean what the hell was that?? It was certainly not a compliment in any manner. I could so very clearly smell sarcasm and so very enthusiastically emptying his purse for Sanam. I was like Wow!! Control Your Feelings Love Monkey.

Then his character turned a little I guess, he din't think about Aahil as he used to do before. After the marriage, there was hardly any scene of them both having a good chat, a heart to heart, a bro thing. The last good convo they had was when Aahil sensed that Rehan is in love. And he used to say, HE knows Aahil better? Yeah right?! I mean Aahil git hint just how he was smiling looking at the moon. Aahil who hardly smiles, or maybe never HE came ti know with just a smile of his Bro? Could you even imagine how close he would have been to Rehan?! :)

It just means that Aahil is the better Judge of Character and person than Rehaan. Except of course Tanveer is the only exception. Except Tanveer Aahil can read everyone like open book. Aahil knows Rehaan better, it's just that he did not go around ranting about it on Rehaan's face like him who in initial episodes was like I know you better than you Aahil Bhai. If that was not enuff, in recent episode Aahil too said the same thing. That you know me better than me Rehaan. Don't You??!! Or it was in said in Sarcasm manner by Aahil to make Rehaan realize that if he knows Aahil better than why do Aahil have to spell out to him to stay away from Sanam?? Didn't he get the hint in first place when he insulted him in front of his fronts??!!

And Rehan. He couldn't see his bro's pain, tears, his eyes which spoke so much of love? He wasn't able to see how his behaviour has changed suddenly? Or maybe he was too blinded by his love for her that he din't want to see that?

He suddenly turned in flipping Jack Rabbit, too much crazed by newly discovered Love that he would have hardly cared about National Emergency. Compared to that Aahil was nothing. 🤣

I wanted to see a convo where Rehan realises Aahil is in love and he talks him out. And I also wanted to see Aahil FIRST confides this to him!

If only wishes could come true. We still haven't got the clearance scene between Aahil and Rehaan where Aahil learns that Sanam is ignorant about Rehaan's feelings towards her. Although they said in the article that Aahil will come to know, but alas nothing happened.

Rehan, he unconsciously blamed Aahil that as it was his fault to marry Sanam, that office convo was so the indication to that because of which Aahil feels it is actually HIS fault. Aahil is already so vulnerable.

It was like Aahil "Rehaan I know I made a mistake." and Rehaan is like "No Aahil Bhai you have committed a CRIME??!!" So much for Bro Code and Compassion and Knowing Aahil Bhai better than him. 😕

Rehan says he knows Aahil very well, then why din't he was able to see that little hidden sorry he said when the ring came to Aahil and he picked it up and looked at Rehan? Why he din't see those words he said in fornt of the lawyer? Why he din't see the jealousy creeping up in him?

B'cos he was so busy engulfed in self-pity to hardly care about anyone else and their feelings. He was like. Oh I am Heart-Broken Feel pity for me. Boo Hoo!!

He was blinded by his love for Sanam. And as they say love is blind. Rehan was also blind. Until when the last convo happened and he might have opened his eyes seeing Aahil in such a condition for the first time, he came to know that his Aahil bhai is actually in love,

Thank God for that. Hail Mary.😆

Was this post even a little bit understandable?! 😆 I told already, Rehan is meh for me, thats what I have come up with his characterisation.

It was more than understandable. It was superlatively clear and correct. Love You.. Muah!!!
