Why is everyone so obsessed with Laila? - Page 2

For me, Laila Is as much a part of this story as PaRud. The story is a long running one, there was ample scope to explore her side of the story and build up a beautiful narration. The relation that she and Rudra shared was a unique one, a side not much explored in Indian TV. She would have become the vamp anyway, that I know but what irked me was that her jealous side was brought on too abruptly and she was made to disappear too quickly.
The way I expected it is that they could have used her in a much better way to develop the original love story. Instead what do we have? She appears once a month, plotting and scheming meaninglessly.
For all it matters, I don't care much about the drama. Relating to the characters is more important for me. And I couldn't relate to what Laila has become. So for me that part of the story lacked proper closure and yes I do feel the character was butchered.

Why is she as much of the story as PaRud? I'm genuinely curious. Okay true but how could they have narrated her beautifully? She's simply an obstacle between PaRud. How was her relationship with Rudra unique? Rudra needed sex and she provided it to him with the agreement that she wouldn't expect anything more from him. Happens all the time here in the west - men use women for sex and nothing more and then proudly and openly choose another woman for marriage. Hell, John Abraham was actually in a relationship with Bipasha Basu, he didn't only use her for sex but after several years he separated from her and married another woman who he only knew for a bit. Just because Rudra spent 8 years with Laila doesn't mean he owes her anything. They had an understanding too. Sometimes you indulge in long term relationships with people but you know very well that you will never marry that person. How could you relate to Laila? Why would you want too? Like I want to understand. I do agree however that they could have used her character in a better and bigger way. It would have been great to see how Paro handled her, especially if she didn't act like such a psycho.

She adds spice to the show ankita is a brilliant actress..

I know she adds spice to the show, I mentioned in my post that she's there to create drama, which is the same thing. But that's it...she's not in the show for any other reason so I don't understand why everyone is talking about how her relationship with Rudra had to be more than sex. Which I doubt.

Laila, the character of the woman with no strings attached, exists to show that Rudra is not the kind to be tied down to a woman. He may come to care but he will never surrender his heart to one. And since she after a relationship of eight years sees that he is only capable of being an animal cannot expect anything more. There was never a deeper emotional connect beyond that of a companionship.

Laila is a contrast to Paro, who sees the broken hearted child in Rudra who needs affection. Paro is the one who is making everybody see the man Rudra is capable of being. Which is why I am rooting for Paro.

Agreed but I wasn't aware there was rooting/sides being taken. Rangrasiya is not a love triangle and Laila has no chance with Rudra. Of course PaRud are soulmates and will end up together...there's no question about it.

I don't like Laila or any topics discussed that relates laila to rudra or vice versa 🤢😭

SilverLining... I agree with you. They could have done more development with the character and done something different than just make her into a crazy psycho. She could have been a more relatable person than just another drama maker. I love the PaRud story. It begins and ends with Rudra and Paro but there are other characters they can develop. Its not a big deal though. The writers have a vision and we have to watch and see. I love every moment of it! 😊

same I just wish Laila would get lost permanently. I can't believe people are actually considering her for Rudra. So stupid.
