I've been wanting to watch this show, but for some reason or the other, haven't gotten around to it...But after this post of yours...*off to my computer to download all the episodes*



Viji


What an amazing compliment, Viji---Thank you! But you know what? I TOTALLY envy you right now. I remember the first five episodes of Rangrasiya, when I and the (few) forums-wasis who came to watch this mainly for the promos/Sanaya had to pick our jaws off the floor after seeing Ashish's acting and sheer charisma. And the first few moments of his intro, their first meeting...ohhh...I envy you your next two weeks of no sleep--no food-obsessive-intense love story watching fun!

<font face="Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">What do you do when you have created a hero who is more
beast than man? Who's entire life can be condensed down to one word--fire? Who is
burnt to a cinder, who's concept of relationships is so terrible, he
calls his father by his name, calls his mother a devil, and who's most
constant friendship is with a wh**e? What value will he give your heroine, this
man?

You have written yourself into a corner, haven't you?

What do you do with a
man who is so "male" that he is just basically aggression, all temper, lust, beastly
impulses, deathly reflexes? Who's very job defines him, and that job is, at the
end of the day, all about power, death and control? Your hero is no mother's
ideal son in law, much less any girl's ideal husband. Your heroine will be
hated for her beauty, despised for her womanhood. She will be hurt by barbs
so sarcastic, they can pierce body armor. Frightened, poor Baisa, by
a raging storm of such pain and bitterness, she wont be able to keep
up with the tempest that is this man.</font>


<font face="Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3"></font>


<font face="Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">So what do you do? As the creator of such a man--What woman
do you give to a man who hates women? You can try an educated and
worldly lady, and he will sneer at her and turn away. A colleague? He does not
see women as equals, so what colleague? You can offer a confident, experienced woman, and after giving her the sexual thrill-ride of her life he'll
walk out the door. You can try a "vamp" -- smart, knowing,manipulative. This man? Having been trained by the
best to expect the worst out of women, he will catch her out at her own game. He
will outplay the player, and then? watch out!!</font>


<font face="Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">

So you think it over. And you accept defeat. You wanted a sherni to his sher, didn't you? A modern-shodern woman? All those hard hitting Hitler-Didi heroines, wielding brooms, jobs, paychecks and Mahila-Samithy memberships? No. You created this man, and you cannot give him the ordinary girl. The twenty other normal men out there would be happy with that girl. But for this man? You give him his exact opposite. You freak out the fan-dom, and give this hero his exact foil--an innocent who exists because he does. You takesymbiosisliterally, and create a woman who will die if he dies. A mirror image, only, like all images--the reverse image. The positive to the negative film. A ying to the yang. You give him--Paro.

</font>

<font face="Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">To the man who's hands are red with blood, you place into
his palms a dove of peace. The man with the intelligence to break a terrorist
network? Give him a child-like spirit, untouched by not just man, but by the world. To the worldly man with the high profile job and the education to be a
Major in the army, you offer a girl who could not study beyond grade 5, a wide
eyed village girl who cannot pour herself a cup of tea or light a gas oven
without his help. To the man who believes he has no family even
though he is living with people he is related to, who claims no parents though
both are still alive, who pretends as he lives inside his father's haveli that
he has no home, give into his care a girl who has seen her dead parents burnt,
who's village has rejected her very identity. If he throws her out his home, she will literally have no where to go. She will sleep where he has put her--because she can set her head down nowhere else but at his door.


To the man who has an entire
community of men to call his comrades, give him a rejected innocent who's
living relative is lost to hell, and who truly has no identity, no home, or
name to call herself. To the man who is so fierce he pours whiskey over a
bullet wound, give him a girl who's tender skin turns red with a too-tight grip
on her wrist.
</font><font face="Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">

To the man who is the embodiment of darkness, give him a
woman who is terrified of the dark. The man who's tongue and sarcasm can cut
glass-give him a girl so soft spoken and gentle, she wont protest her own
humiliation or speak about her hurt. To the killer who has a kill count into
the double, triple digits---give him a girl who literally won't harm a mouse. To the man who's job is to protect---give him a girl
who will die, without his protection. Everything she is, is due to
him. Everything that touches her, comes from him. New experiences, new dangers. New
identity, new life. Good, bad, easy,
hard. Every belief, every truth, every relationship. Him. His. And she has no one to speak for her-not even herself. She is his to hurt, and his to save. His choice, which one he does. No one in her life, on her side--but him.


All she has--everything, the good and the bad--is from him. And after giving him this girl, don't make him do anything. Nothing
at all. You wont need to. You don't need to come up with situations, with ways
to inspire romance. You just need to give him a girl who is breathing, safe,
healthy and alive because of him. This girl. And having given him Paro, you can
sit back, Creators---and watch him become---Rudra. Because the hero he will now be, the man he will now turn to--she will make it happen. The man who you couldn't control, will come like a tame beast to the stroke of her hand. And she will bring him to his knees, by just being---Paro.</font>


<font face="Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3"></font>


<font face="Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="3">That is how you make magic. And how you make a hero, and a
heroine, like the eternal couple I saw on TV tonight.Sit back, Creators, wherever you are. Take a bow, tonight. You've done it right. Thank you.</font>



Such a brilliant post, definitely the CVs deserved this...especially today...after the brilliant episodes they have been treating us with! I dont think I have commented on ur posts before...but I am sure I liked many many of them. I put away commenting searching for the right words to say when u put such master strokes forward and then it doesnt happen at all later...not anymore! I was so impressed by your literary finding on the type of hero Rudra falls under and as usual failed to comment there tooo... I am developing a habit of posting my comments regularly and look forward to seeing more posts from ur side. I think u explain Rudra best, positive, negative...brute, lover...he is safe with u!

Ah, napster!
Even a man like the Jallad needs to be nurtured sometimes. You know, he has got her back, but she has got his underbelly!

And today the Jallad turned into Rudra and Paro into Parvati and they took their first steps of the divine dance!
