Just for Kicks ;-)

Hi Guys...

So there is a joke in this month's issue of Reader's Digest which I would like you to relate to the male leads of Swaragini. 😊

The joke is a play on a multiple choice question. It goes:

"" I like my man like I like my:

a) Sweatpants: Warm. Resilient. Covered with Cookie crumbs.

b) Babies: Adorable. Potty trained. With a nice crib.

c) Knives: Easy to handle. Clean cut. In the kitchen.

d) Cheese: Sharp. Good with wine. Easily moulded.

e) Books: Novel. Unpredictable. With a Spine.""

So which option do you think suits Sansku? And what about Lucky? 😊

I vote e) for Sansku--he certainly is unpredictable, and is possibly the only male in that serial with a spine (except DP, perhaps)? 😊

Lucky would be b), but I am not at all sure he is adorable...almost the reverse, truth be told... 😊

Anyway, another corollary question I have is, if Sansku is liked as one would like a favorite book, then which book best describes him?

My choice is "The Count of Monte Cristo". Angst driven. Mysterious. Suave persona. And initially came back for revenge! 😊

My cousin, who is also a Sansku fan (though she was earlier---eeeps!! A Sangini shipper----I am slowly converting her to a SwaSan shipper now! 😊), said her choice of book to describe Sansku was 50 shades of gray!! Dear God, for Swara's sake, I hope not!

Please join in guys. Choose which of the 5 options best describes the guys, and if a book describes them, then which one.

Happy Saturday evening all! 😊

Awesome game!!!

^^^^ I almost chose Pride and Prejudice before switching to Count of Monte Cristo 😊

Sanskaar is definitely E while Lakshya deserves a category of his own.

Oh oh ! Super.. (rubs hands in glee)..I see a lot of P&P, Pesuasion and even N&S fans here !

Apologise for digressing but does India forums have book corner that I can sign up to?

Would love to pore over the books or their BBC Adaptations and discuss them threadbare with all of you !

I def vote (e) for Sansku- no doubt. Lucky is tricky- I will go with (c) simply because for some like Ragini he's easy to handle and manipulate and to me, he's always been too clean cut (read boring) and I think if he was contained to one room- i.e. the kitchen with his dear wife it would be great!

Book- Oh good lord please not 50 Shades- that thing doesn't deserve to be called a book- it's badly written mummy po*n IMO and if I met Mr Grey, I'd be calling the police😆.

I go for my all time favourite book forever- Pride and Prejudice. I am a total Mr Darcy fan girl for life, can wax lyrical for hours and if i compare a character to Mr D, you can gauge the depth of my love for him

I see Sanskaar as a Darcy types- strong but mysterious and can be arrogant when he wants. He will also get the job done, like how Darcy dealt with Wickham eventually (Wickham is so Lux- omg!! even down to marrying the annoying selfish sister!!) There's elements of the Darcy-Elizabeth romance here with him being so in love and doing everything and she doesn't want to know/ misunderstands and my real wish is for Swara to totally fall in love like Eliza did with Darcy!!

Yes, yes, absolutely 100% yes to everything you said about our beloved Sanskaar. Definitely (e) for him, and yes, P&P's Mr Darcy. Although, I think Sansku is not as socially awkward (or whatever you want to call it) as Darcy. 😛 Sanskaar most certainly has a spine, and he's proven how unpredictable he can be. Being the only Maheshwari with a logically thinking brain is quote the novel concept too. 😆

And yeah, Laksh is easily manipulated, but then again, he's like cheese in that sense too (but not sharp!). I can't make up my mind about him, to be honest. 😆
