BALRAM / Basant Bhatt Appreciation Thread #4 - Page 22

Also to everyone else that commented I 100% agree 👏Balram is now the butt of every joke.😡 CVs made Balram stupid and I hate that. It is fine for the villains to point that out but for Krishn to recognize Balram is not smart is kind of rude for Shri Balram😭

I had thought CVs forgot that Balram is Sheshnaag and to be honest they still did. They made Shehsnaag fall in love real quick. I would have not mind if Balram was gonna be love stricken because of some divine connection. 🥱

This could just be me but I did not like a love stricken Sheshnaag. Jeez they did not even spare Sheshnaag.🤢 It just bothered me. I like Basant's acting but I hate CVs messing up important characters like this.

@Tusu people are weird when they make fun of Balram. It is annoying and everyone is freaking out Balram is gonna have a 'girlfriend' and I am sure CVs will make more fun of Balram in this track through his own brother

@Arti yes I agree with you that is would be weird to put Krishn and Balram against each other for a wrestling match for Revati's hand in marriage. At this point I still hope it will be the asur. Because remember only Kans and the villains know Krishn is strong nobody else so it would be kind of dumb. Also in the promo Krishn seemed mad. I was hoping for more character development between KaRam's relationship but it seems pointless to hope for that.

@bold unfortunately a lot of people. I was reading on instagram and youtube the types of comments and whenever anyone points out the inaccuracies some (not all) people get really defensive. Saying things like 'how can you hate on radhakrishn?'

No doubt this show has amazing talent. I acknowledge that but I also recognize this as just another hindi tv drama that sadly uses gods and goddesses names to trick people into believing their story.

It is sad that some people truly believe that this stuff happened in the actual purans

Again just to make it clear SOME people (not all) are being fooled and blindfolded by Swastik casting great actors. If it were not for the cast this show would have ended a long time ago.

It's so sad they are making fun of gods. If not for Sumedh and basant and their wonderful bond on and off screen i wouldn't watch this show. I watch only their scenes anyway. They are always hilarious. I am just waiting for the day when jatila will realize she was messing with royal people all along. It's high time people should knkw they are children of a king, not some normal cowherds.

I think they want to show kutila couldn't be with her lover so she became a half mad person who just wants to dominate everyone. Sick

My greedy heart wants to see Satybhama in th show so bad.

I like that they did actually show a Sheshnaag-Jyotishmati backstory to Balram-Revati; although it was a mixture of the mythological stories about Revati and her previous birth as Jyotishmati, at least what they showed was reasonable and made some sense in terms of the RK show setup of still having Balram in Vrindavan rather than in Dwaraka when he meets Revati. It appears that at least one of the writers has learnt a new skill to some extent - writing things that actually make some sense! (Baby steps, baby steps!) And this will hopefully give those poor souls who think that everything shown in the RK show is actually true (!) SOME understanding of the revered characters of Shri Balram and Devi Revati, rather than them just getting excited about the Balram character getting a "girlfriend" in the show!

Being one story where the protagonists, Balram and Revati, are already actually destined to be together, I an NOT looking forward to seeing how RK's Radha and Krishna - who have been soooooo successful (note: sarcasm!) at teaching us all about love - attempt to teach Balram about love! 😔 God only knows what the writers have in store for us all!

I very much dislike the way that the writers continue to portray Balram as being brainless, or having other characters think that he is brainless. I didn't like it when Kutila actually thought that to herself in Monday's episode, but I wasn't surprised by it because she thinks she is the smartest and everyone else is stupid. What is the real insult is the way that the writers continue to treat the Balram character disrespectfully in general. Shri Balram, the RK character of Balram, and Basant deserve much, much better.

The way they continue to flip-flop around disrespectfully with his Balram character in RK is one of the reasons I hate that Basant had to leave VG; I know he had to leave one show for all practical purposes and I respect that and will try to stop bringing this up over and over again (sorry!), but the way RK continue to be silly about his character is grating, big time!!! 😡

Hopefully they won't treat Balram too much more horribly in this upcoming "love story" bit! I don't hold out much hope (keeping all hopes underground) but it would be nice if Balram and Revati actually recognise each other from their encounter as Sheshnaag-Jyotishmati in Brahmalok. 😊

BTW, Tusu, Jyotishmati's father in Brahmalok with the mukut is Chakshush Manu, not Kukudmi (who is Revati's father, who we haven't seen yet). With this weird plan that Pralambhasur and Kans are making for getting King Kukudmi to organise a wrestling festival to find the most worthy husband for Revati, it will be really weird if they somehow actually put Krishna and Balram against each other in the akhada!!! 😕

RK's Pralambhasur is lucky - he actually survived Kans's plan (making him only the second asur to achieve this feat, after that Chalasur who went as a fake pundit during Chadravalli's wedding festivities), and now that he has advised Kans to get King Kukudmi to organise this wrestling festival to "help" him find a worthy son-in-law, seemingly Pralambhasur has some weird role in uniting his destined muktidaata, Balram, with his destined wife, Revati! 🤣🤣🤣 Haaayeee! The weird stuff the RK writers come up with!!!

Their dau getting gf references are coming because of swastik post. They didn't introduce her for what she is through their post, instead they gave a 'prem' touch to it. In fact the very reason they didn't let lord brahma arrange the marriage because Narayan had to make it look like anant prem 😂 yugo yugo se intezaar for milan = anant prem 😜 well dimwits will understand and take what swastik is feeding according to their capacity but i see swastik peddling it on the first place.

So true 🤣as if this wouldn't have happened without two teenagers poking nose into the matter 😆 lets admit it, not just god, even we have a fair idea about what is to come

Actually i remember your words two days back about basant having to leave vg for rk, back then i didn't agree because i loved to see more of ballu but now i do after seeing the trash treatment and realizing will lose his individuality by the time this ends.

Pralambasur 🤣

Pralambasur is the one having thug life so far 😂😂😎 he is a freelancer 😂 went to barsana, stayed there as guest, ate chhappan bhog, did not do his work as murtikar, threatened kanha's lover and returned with swag 😎😎 now he is default advicer of kans 😎 i honestly haven't understood how this competition is going to go... Kuchh samajh nahi aa raha

Uss kutila ki koi aukaat nahi hai ballu ko aisa bole but i would rather blame the anant lovers for establishing it that way. Why do you think gopika's bf gave a wishy washy bahana of haath me haath pad gaya tha or something like that when he was confrontated by him. Because s/he thinks he is stupid. Koi respect vespect nahi hai, things like that said is actually a facade for a good image. Both anant premis think he is foolish and piece of meat for them to toy with.

Coming to kutila, its a pity that Balram doesn't know Indian soap vamps come with trademark make up, otherwise he would have doubted her. But he didn't because he is a man who judges every individual on its own merits. Ugrapad being from the same family is a very different person, so he didn't judge kutila by ayan and Jatila. And he had facts before him and everyone could see that lovers actually eloped.

The reason I said they won't let him retain his own individuality/personality is because they are just not allowing him to have his opinion. Kanha and his premika are immediately intervening the moment he is expressing an opinion different to theirs.

On the eloping issue i found it outrageous what kanha said. Well the issue of Vallabh gopika affair came out of nowhere and exploded on face of every one and he is telling ppl to cheer the eloped lovers 🙄🙄 and they didn't elope from their own homes, they eloped from a place where they were staying as guests. Imagine if gopika was real, ugrapad uski family ko kya jawab deta... On the other hand ballu accepted Vallabh, opened up to him and gave him gift. And here kanha is saying nobody ceded them space to open up 🙄🙄🙄 its clear breach of trust. I cannot take this trash being preached that every one have to start dancing with joy because gopika Vallabh prem ka naam leke sabki muh me chuna lagake bhaage hai 👎👎

How cutely he said nahi aaunga aaunga today 😆😆😳

But again as soon as the lovers saw he is having a different opinion from theirs, immediately they attempted to impose their opinion on him. They will just not allow a different opinion to coexist. Their priorities = right priorities, everything else is not allowed 👎👎👎 and it is just not limited to verbal expression, they will twist and manipulate a situation to have their way, normal ppl have no chance before them.

I didn't agree with him everytime he said rk are perfect for each other, i didn't like everytime he he said rk should be together for life and worked for it, but i accepted them because it was his own thought process. These ideas came to him naturally and i respect that 😊

Its absolutely wrong to say he doesn't understand love, his love towards everyone is purest form of love any one can have. And if it is about romantic love then he understands this too. Initially he had this notion that final destination of romantic love should be marriage, but when kanha said rk love will develop outside wedlock he accepted it with open mind, i was amazed. Ekbaar chehre pe chuna lagake bhaagne walo ko support kya nahi kiya kanha ne iski samajh pe hi question mark laga di 👎👎👎👎

I see at the end of it, they will just have Balram parrot them, there will be a time when he will just nod in agreement to all they have to preach and his present opinions/thought process will be declared wrong by them. And if accidentally any of the povs differ, new manipulations will come into play.

This though 🥳

Hi friends, how is it going? 😊

I was waiting for others to post, i can't make so many back to back posts 😛

Imo basant's expressions were so on point today 💯 he is a fabulous actor 👏 especially when he fumbled and ran away 👏

I mean hota hai, this is the reason we don't sent requests on your LIVE sessions 😆 ek toh himmat nahi hai, aur goof up ka darr 😆 as side effect galat impression padne ki chinta, hope u understand 😆

Kanha's bhabi wants instant affair... #OK 🤔😛

Btw kanha didn't pay respect to his bhabhi 🤔 he is behaving as if she is just another woman. I admit i had a different picture in mind about their meeting.

Basant is acting fab irrespective of the quality of content, that bit about chal bhi nahi paa raha was obviously exaggeration. We know aisa nahi hota.

The problematic part as said a day before, they will snatch away the very things we identify with him. Not wanting to wrestle part today came sooner than expected. Next casuality is bhojan it is known. Because kanha's lover thinks these are not important enough. Aise me inko imp manna is blasphemy.

There is another core trait, that is his love for kanha. But that will probably survive because kanha ki premika ka interest hai isme.

In the jealousy track back in feb, March this year they toyed with Balram's core traits and even today i refuse to acknowledge that was actually Balram.

There is always a foundation on which a character stands on, when you try to uproot the very foundation, the character becomes someone else.

Though i know this wrestling and bhojan aspects are gone case and i dont expect swastik to defy kanha's premika's wishes. I just hope their target audience (10-15 yrs) will one day come to know that this very man gave training to bhim and duryodhan in mace fight and was not just a puppet for rk's entertainment.

I still don't understand who are their target audience, maybe just TV watching time wasters. This show is childish to it's very core. With such a good cast they could have done wonders but no they have made a joke of love. Radha is married now and still she meets krishna , roams freely and dresses like a teenager. I mean where is the complexities of married life?

Their target audience is 10-15 year old school goers. Irrespective of how the content is, they make the maximum noise in Instagram be it positive or negative, and from this very noise swastik decides how they are taking it and goes along.

romance tracks and interactions between young characters explicitly high school type, i mean the kind of equations high school students often have. Thats why 10-15 yrs age group identify with it so much.

Not just meet, haath me haath pakad ke bachcho ki tarah ghumte hai. Like primary school friends 😆
