I am rooting for narottam.. happy to get a companion in that.
Welcome to the forum

I'm obsessed with him 😆 my eyes always seek him during the episodes trying to figure out and decode what's going on behind his eyes.

Has anyone created a AT for him or put in a request? I need a place where I can spaz about him without disturbing other 😆

Narottam has been suspect from the moment I laid eyes on him. There just was something about him that had my mind calculating. His back story is tragic and filled with so much abuse and hurt so for him to be a master player in this game shouldn't come as a surprise.

Also I mentioned this somewhere after watching Mondays precap between satrupa and Narottam. That he would manipulate the situation and use it to his advantage. And that's exactly what he did. His pit satrupa against pujan. AdhiRaj planted the seed of doubt and Narottam watered it. He saw the opportunity and went in for the kill.

I think Narottam did care for Vatsalya but not enough. Not enough to realize he might have because his too focused on bigger things. Also Vatsalya may have been kind to Narottam but he was never his protector. He was never able to stop the abuse and vile treatment. So no, their bond was not strong or significant enough.in general they had no bond. Vatsalya was too passive. He could barely take a stand for himself. But with Anami there is hope. Even if it is just 50/50.

Narottam isn't a child in need of protecting anymore. His calculative, his manipulative, he knew what Satrupas reaction would be in today's episodes but he went ahead because he has a agenda.

I can go on and on. Narottam, is my favorite outta them all. Because his so complex and his been so wronged. My type of character.

Awww thank you 😃 I grad you enjoyed the write up. I'm obsessed with Narottam. I may doba write up for Anami, not sure though.

so well said. seriously, he is one of my favs too. infact this show has an amazing list of characters that I could madly fall in love with. your post inspired me to make a VM on Narottam. in fact i'll try to make one on all the characters if I can. but Narottam's will definitely be dedicated to you coz your post inspired me to make it.

Omg, Soumya 🤗 🤗 I swear I was going to request you to make a VM on Narottam the minute I saw you on this side of IF. I was actually on my way to do so and here you are already working on it 🥳 I'm so excited to see it.

This show has implacable casting and characters. Each character serves a purpose and isn't just black and white. Well expect for pujan. I find him typical and flat but again his just a distraction, a small player.

Narottam is by far one of the most complex characters on the show. I'm not saying the others aren't, but the others you can understand because they've developed a good character sketch of the other characters. But Narottam they haven't.

Like you said, he's invisible, his footprints vanish behind him, he blends into the surroundings, and is only seen when he wants to be seen. Maybe he's just jealous of the love and affection that his brother got, that should have been his. Maybe he's full out against LM because of all the hatred and disrespect meted to him.

Whatever it is, he has never seen compassion, never seen love, never had a chance to really develop a sense of right and wrong. He's never had an innocent childhood or a chaotic adolescence. He's never seen the masti of college, the chaos of middle school, the innocent pranks of grade school. He's been born and forgotten by a mother who ended up in a mental institution, by a father who sees him as the reason for his disownment, by a stepmother who sees him as the betrayal that she was meted by the Lal Mahal wasis, by the Dadaji and Dadiji who see him as their son's big mistake, and by everyone else ever to see him.

But does that mean that he's right in what he does because that's how he's been raised? Or is he really wrong because our morales say so? Or maybe he's both because we understand him and yet we can't side by him?

I've been really liking Narottam so far because the more I read into him, the more questions I end up having and the more I want to know. Which is why I said at the beginning that he's a complex character because they show 10%, but hide the other 90%. Who is Narottam really? We may never know or maybe it'll be a big revelation that will be brought to our attention when the time is finally right.

Him being a mastermind would be the perfect twist in a way because it would match his character so well. From childhood he hasn't known right or wrong. And yes Vatsalya may have stood up for him from time to time, but it wasn't a strong stance. It was an indirect, diplomatic stance. And that is not enough to form a tight bond, but enough to get someone who has been wronged forever to feel even more wronged. To feel like he's being insulted even worse than he usually is.

Personally I can see a Narottam-Anami bond even deeper than an Anami-Baldev bond. Because Anami is fearless, courageous, and outspoken. She calls a spade, a spade and isn't hesitant on defending those that she cares about. At the same time, she understands and cares for people. She is beyond her age in this matter. And that is a perfect setting for a strong bond.

@Athene

Exactly. Even though they don't share the same mother. They both equally share the same relationship with every other member of the house. Yet Narottam, is left picking up the scrapes. He had to beg to be taken to Banaras and if Vatsalya hadn't intervened he would have been left behind like always. Anyone one would resent and feel humiliated living like this. He cant even sit at the dinner table. Or be a part of any festives. Narottam probably saw whatever Vatsalya did for him as indirect taunt.

No, I don't believe Narottam is jealous. I believe his past that point. Now its all about how he has been wrong by the people who should have loved and protected him. His father the guiltiest from them all. Baldev should have protected him. If he couldn't have loved him then he should have protected him like a father, if not a father then just as a person. Instead he resented an innocent child for his misdeeds. He punished and condemned a innocent child for his wrong.

I stand by Narottam. Whatever he becomes is due to the red family.

Narottam, is definitely a complex character. But I find him the easiest to understand, look into his motive's and see what's hidden behind his eye's. I can relate to him so I understand him. I guess because I can connect to him emotionally. His extremely alluring. His the kind of character I gravitate towards :)

Hi

I am new to the programme and catching up in the UK.

Who are Narottam's parents? What is his history?

Thanks 😊

@ SummerLove: True that. He is a complex character, but easily understood and easy to relate to. Actually I feel that for all the characters. They are real. Their actions make sense. You can understand why they are doing what they are doing. They are complex only because they are so real.

@ sharon7: Narottam's father is Baldev and mother is Sudha. It seems (based on what has been shown so far) that Baldev had an affair with Sudha before marrying Satrupa and Narottam is the result of that affair. Narottam was then brought to Lal Mahal, possibly because Sudha lost her mental balance after Baldev married Satrupa and not her. But no one has ever liked Narottam and he has been shunned by all.

Excellent write-up. Almost missed it. Thanks to -Swetha- for letting me know.

He is indeed the most complex and at the same time most easy to understand.

We all expect him to behave in a certain way. To correct the wrongs done to him. But this being RKC we will never know how a character will shape up. What keeps me hooked to the serial is this unpredictability. 😆

If at all there is a chance for Vatsalya to be alive - I think Narottam is behind that. WHy is Vatsalya kept alive ? Because even in the whole Lal Mahal story - Narottam had only one supporter till date. Narottam may want to be in Vatsalya's place. But he may not have had the heart to kill him. Or get him killed.

There is a goodness in every heart. And there is an evil side in every heart 😉
