Very nice portrayal of Rudra's point of view.


I'm glad you liked it! It was very satisfying to write, I will admit.

There's nothing that can match the joy of seeing a one shot written by your favourite writer amidst indolent surfing..
This one shot helped me understand the dynamics of the situation so much better. Parvati and Rudra are hell bent on complicating things- but it's never easy when it comes to love, isn't it?
Real love is always chaotic. You lose control; you lose perspective. You lose the ability to protect yourself. The greater the love, the greater the chaos. It's a given.
People who truly love us can be divided into two categories: those who understand us, and those who forgive us our worst sins. Rarely do you find someone capable of both. I'm glad that Rudra has found his real love:)
That is by far the longest comment I've written:)
Beautiful writing:D


Sarikaa!! 🤗 Phir se maafi for not telling you! 😉 This is what I would like to think went through their brains, although it probably wasn't what it was- It really is complicated, and there's only a certain point where you can take everything with a smile. At some point, the other side has to give- and that's what I wanted to show. I love your long comment! Thank you 😊

I am so glad the writing bug has caught hold of you...I sincerely hope that it never lets go 😛

Lovely piece of work...his inner thoughts were written so well!
That he wants her to giggle uninhibitedly, wants her to blush when he speaks, wants to be the one who tells her about the ball...it was adorable!
Yet, it was poignant how he realises that he may have lost her because he was too proud to apologise..

I esp loved these sentences:

He was left alone with the woman who had single handedly saved his livelihood and his dignity, who had insisted that he was a better man than he was.

He wanted his image to remain pristine in her eyes, the shining armor glinting in the sun.



Aptly titled, i must add...


Sometimes I think that we all enjoy the Fan Fiction so much more than the show...because there is something about reading his thoughts, which wouldn't really come across on screen..😊


Keep writing sweetie...we all love it 🤗

Cheers
What_the


What_the, seeing your comments make my day. You write perhaps the most interesting perspectives, and it always makes me think about what I write. Apologies can go a long way- and that really is something Rudra Banna needs to learn. The title actually came to me when I was reading up on the Gilded Age, and figured it would fit this.

That's actually one of the reasons I love Fanfiction- you can explore characters thoughts and build them the way you want to, and it's such a great experience.

Lots of hugs! 🤗

Awesome one shot

The loneliness, his guilt and pain Rudra was feeling when Parvati was trying her best to get away from him is written very beautifully.
His notions for khoobsorat aurat are changing. He is falling in love with the patient, determine string Parvati.
Love it


Javeria, thank you for your always lovely comments. Paro seems to be redefining the "khoobsurat aurat" for Rudra, and it's an interesting journey to watch- I'm glad you liked it!

just beautiful!! would u write a continuation to this? I hope so... its amazing.. one day I hope too that he will push her one step too far and eventually break her.. only to realize that he has broken his own heart by doing it.. And then work towards bringing her back..
and her to love the flawed man and not the god she has put on a pedestal...



That's exactly what I was thinking when I wrote this! I may write a continuation, if the inspiration strikes. She needs to bring him down from Rudra = Shivji to Rudra the person, and I'm hoping we'll see that at some point.

And I'm here!

I am having mixed feelings. Mixed, because while I love the characters on the screen, more and more I start to fine myself seeking your version of Paro and Rudra on screen, showing the depth and emotional range you give them, and of course, I don't find that. What you've done here is taken the approximate one and half minute scene of Rudra/Paro and given us the second by second internal monologue that should be given screen space--but since it cannot, the emotions have been given life here.

And so beautifully brought to life, too! I loved the symbolic wrapping of the edges in gilt, and then. when the whole point has dissolved, the slow peeling off of the gilt to reveal metal, corroded, underneath. Because that is, after all, all these two "social workers" succeeded in doing--creating an alternate reality that glittered to the audience, but did not necessarily move the emotional development of these two characters with each other.

The tone, also, mirrored the action. The slpow awareness of what she is doing, the build up to relief, to a realization even, of love, of gratefullness..and then the loss of the moment. The point when the gilt should have been cemented on, or replacd with the real thing--the waste of the opportunity leading to the corrosion of the gilt, the slow darkening of the edges of their life..

Goegeous strung necklace of golden beaded words, chotidesi..not gilt, but solid 24 karat, baisa. But then again, you wrote it. Asli sona ka hi to hogi, naa?


Napster Di, I cannot express how much I loved this comment. It's so thoughtful and detailed, and it honestly explains what I was trying to achieve with this OS. I find the Rudra/Paro on screen to sometimes lack the emotional depth people have- and I attempt to reconcile myself with that by writing. They really are beautiful characters with so much potential.

The social worker track had romantic moments- but they weren't real, they weren't what two people truly in love would have shown. They were, of course, very sweet- but they weren't the truth. For me, the characters developed more in that two minutes of awkward silence than they did in all of the cutesy things they were doing to impress the SWs.

I'm thrilled you think my work is good- I admire your writing so much, and this comment brought the biggest smile onto my face. And please, call me Choti! 😊

So beautiful. wish they had shown it like you've written. Its the small nuances that really make the scene. Like they didn't show the hurt in his eyes when she said that she didn't want to go anyway. And the smile on her face when he asked her to pack in todays episode. A close up here and there make all the difference.
