Paro's naivity in not being uncharacteristic at all! - Page 3

Nicely explained sunara. But I want Paro to be a human - A girl with an extremely good and pure heart, but a human nevertheless. She can be naive, innocent, inexperienced etc. etc. But she should feel like a girl who is in the threshold of womanhood. Just like Khushi. I loved Khushi because even though she was crazy, talkative, adventurous which are so not my own traits, but i can relate to her as a girl. She felt hurt at the right places, felt angry at the right places, forgave Arnav at the right places. The problem here is that I can't stomach that paro is SO unfazed in front of Rudra's constant stream of abuse. Love is a two way process. I still think she is in the phase of realising her love for Rudra - she is still not IN love, but on the way to it. She is convinced that Rudra is her soul mate, but to fall in love she has a long way to go. She has not seen all the facets of Rudra. She will see them, one by one, will have to try so hard to get to know them, and she WILL get hurt many many times during that process because Rdura is actively resisting her "getting-to-know" mission. Getting hurt is totally okay - I am not a feminist, i am all for intense love stories, and I can handle torture and injustice. But the slow process of falling in love should be believable.

She was so much more relatable before the mela fiasco. She had a real inner conflict with her mind and heart going on, whether to hate the Jallad or believe the brief glimpses of real Rudra she saw. But now... I dunno.

Ah, was studying while randomly logged in to IF and saw this... hope i am making sense. Please tell me your thoughts on this.

Finally someone who's said it like it is. I don't understand why everyone wants all the female leads of every drama to be exactly the same, where's the fun in that?! I for one am glad that Paro is shown to be so perfect as it's in complete contrast to Rudra, and that's what makes their love story so fascinating!

nice post -)

i will post what i posted somewhere else

this is just my POV , and my issues with the track

A village girl idolizing her pati to be shiv , this is not the right way to show it

here the cvs clearly they are drawing similarities and try to reason action taken example of shiv and parvati to show rudra and paro are meant to be together like shiv and parvati is , so parvati undergoing all this torture is fine

parvati is the strongest form of woman , she is considered to have the strength and power of all the women put together , and she is infamous or famous for her anger

shiv ji also has been victim of her extreme wrath

now about paro

I liked the dialogue that takurain says to varun , It is impossible to make the sharmile paro talk
They should have shown the transition from that paro to this confident strong woman to protect her family

my answer to who is she is

she is his protector , his shield from insecurity , loneliness , pain , not otherwise

and definitely not his punch bag to take his insecurity , pain and loneliness , that is daily soap heroine , doesnt fit here

Symbolic to jagatamba the universal protector

For that they need time and not hurry

Awesome post!

I don't know why many felt she should have shouted back at him when he said she was shameless. I doubt it is in Paro's character. She is always silent. And she said it how can you know hate when you don't know about love? She understands him far too much. She knows these are just his tactics to get her out of the house but it is all meant nothing in the big scheme of things. Her goal is bigger not get into petty fights with Rudra. She is completely focused just on her main goal.

And Paro being Paro gave the answer to him why do you think I am shameless? Even Parvati God has done this she has tried to pacify Shiva before she got married to him! When God can do it I can too and that does not mean I am shameless. This is what was conveyed if you look at the deeper meanings of the scene. Maybe it was not pictured perfectly that many looked at it just at the face value.

And if Rudra and Paro in love 3 months since story has started what is left to show? It is the journey of how they fall in love. I want to see Paro turn around Rudra into a man and show him the path of love and am eager to see this! Rudra can scream and shout all he wants but Paro will win in the end and that is all that matters!

I want CVs to show their version of the story. Another time another show which can't be named was scrutinized day and night and everyone had some suggestion or the other in the end the show which could have been something ended messed up! I don't want CVs to ever come to this forum and look at our views its better they do what they think is right because they have more experience than us in these things and at the end of the day its their vision!

Wonderful Sunara. Loved how you described Paro.

I keep saying the same thing. We can't relate to Paro. We can't even think of relating to her because we are just different. We can't be as pure and innocent as her and she cant be like us. So her reactions to Rudra and to everything for that point are different from ours. Like you said we got hurt and angry at Rudra's words because we understood something but Paro understood entirely different. For her he was just misunderstanding her again about the dori. So she wants to prove her point about her love and make that MU go.

Perfectly said. That song is meant for Paro. Very straightforward just like her.

What you said about Paro post and pre Tejawat exposure was awesome. People feel this Paro is not the one two weeks ago and well, she is not. She is in her character now and was in conflict earlier.


She does not talk in riddles, she does not think in riddles.. her thought process, her life, her understanding.. all of these r so linear, so straightforward.. she does not understand implied things. She takes things literally..

The above feature says it all. It shows how pure and direct she is. This quality of hers alone differentiates us and Rudra from her. We might think she is foolish but she is actually that simple to understand. What you see is what she is. Now if we have a problem to believe such person exists then its our problem. right? I think Rudra has the same problem. As to him such pure innocent person can't exist, so he keeps telling himself she is a facade.

Even in kitchen scene, any other girl will try to hide her back. But Paro was more keen on hiding her face from him. And for Paro it is a huge deal than us to show her back to him. But his anger was her priority. He was more important to her.

If you clearly watched the scene, she peeks through her shoulder to see if he left and is taken aback to find him standing behind her. She didn't expect him to come to her or tie her dori. Now if Rudra was not able to keep his hands next to his pockets, how is she at fault? I was hurt when he called her those names. You can see she was hurt too. Her eyes said it all. But that pain took back seat as she knows she was not what he thought, not because she was a mahan TV land lead but because she know who she is. So rather than shouting back, she was ready to clear his MU about love. We need to understand here, if she was a girl like any of us Rudra would not even give a damn about her. He feels for her because she is not like us, because she is Paro and not us. She has to be that pure, innocent Paro for Rudra to realize love. Each scene gives us a glimpse into her character. CV's great job.

I would love to say, Sanaya, darling, you stole my heart again today. The hurt in Paro's eyes was mind blowing. That face of hers is haunting me. I just can't take it out of my head. I was hurting just be looking at her. 👏👏👏

This is a very beautiful love story. One I never saw on TV. Very fresh and innocent. I am deeply in love with RR. I am more in love with Paro than Rudra as he is more like me. Ok, I meant I can relate to him more (Paro would be so confused with my earlier statement 😆). But Paro is not me. She does things different than other women in TV land and that makes it more interesting to me. We should just start looking at Paro as Paro - A pure, innocent, naive soul.

Again loved everything you wrote of Paro, Sunara. Beautiful. RR for me is the story of her growth as a women too. Can't wait to see how she reacts or changes when she comes in contact with lust, cruelty, possession, obsession...

I always end up writing so much when PaRud are involved. We can't do this with other soap characters because our Parud and simple yet complicated. That is what maks them very special.

Sunara 👏👏

Firstly I am glad it's you who put up this post..I know you were finding it hard initially in understanding Paro...but you did and in a much bigger, better and beautiful way.🤗

I absolutely love how you've explained the first verse of the RR title song that outlines the essence of Paro's character.

I have also said this on Oyster's post. Many of us need to stop looking for a Khushi in Paro!

The minute we do that we will find the character of Paro as being first of a kind...close to one of the mythological ones...set in a modern day setting.

I believe ST has chosen his Paro to be the way he has visualized. Its unique, rare and something that can only be seen and experienced on screen.

Sunara once again brilliant post...

cz honestly as u said, be it Khushi or be it ourselves, if we think Paro is either this becomes annoying, self-degrading and it becomes a chore to watch the show!

I had no choice except to watch cz of Sanaya and on the other hand swallow what they were giving and what I WAS misunderstanding! not a nice place to be.. not at all!

Anyway finally am glad that this is going the way it is going! Its delightful once u make peace with the Paro they have conceptualized and understand her story and NOT her as we see should be! Hope they manage to keep it like that!
The ratings r keeping me very happy! the UK ones! 😳
