Unres,Hey again sis, 🤗You know I just finished reading this for the third time a few minutes earlier and still the sheer allure of the plot has me in a grip as tight as it was in the first reading. Just how brilliant you are is far far beyond my ability of expression ❤️Firstly I really appreciate the effort you put behind each of your works making them true outcomes of meraki than anything else. Here, in a matter of few short paras you give us an absolutely perfect description of both the play and the player...then his friends and foes. I know nothing of Tennis but still I gripped the setting well...All thanks to your masterful writing 😳Now that we move past that...as always your secondary characters are as enlightening and layered as your protagonists and you know that is one thing I adore. Here the dream chasing father...The mother living in the thin line of pursuing that dream and loving her child and the brother in the shady realms of envy was as solid to me as the dedicated super player Sanskar and the sweet young lady Swara.In the first chapter going beyond the image of the player you built earlier I was in awe of the man you portrayed Sanskar to be. His gentle manner, the deep longings, fleeing desires, unspoken feelings all expressed wonderfully within the span of your beautiful wordings :)Then Swara and the sneak peeks we had to her schedule, memories, heart and conscious was delicate and pure threads tying the story nicely.Now we come to the lone figure of the spy (der)? Who was that and whose happiness is exactly bothering them? For both our lovebirds I can make too guesses...Two of our absolute favorites of all time and some wildlife reference would top my list...you see what I mean huh? But for now I will keep that to myself.On side notes,I find Sanskar being DP's son far more enthralling than the actual case. I guess it has something to do with RamTa never being fully explored on screen. And the two has some striking similarities to boot!I am on mobile so over look the obvious typos. Can go on...and on and then some more. But will leave this here for now. Waiting for the journey to continue...soon hopefully?Loads and loads of love,Saku
Saku my dear 🤗🤗
I am simply overwhelmed at the warmth and the love you are showering on me and my writing. 😳 🤗 So thrilled and touched, that you loved the setting, Sanskaar's background, and the description of his talents and strengths, as well as his grit and determination, and his passion for the game.
I will not be making this fic cluttered with tennis related jargon; just the minimum needed since this is Sunny boy's profession in this fic. And he is a born tennis player, one of the most supremely gifted people ever to pick up a tennis racquet. 😊 He has honed his skills through resolute and diligent practice---typical of the man that Sunny is. 😉
I felt so happy that you loved the way the supporting/ secondary characters were brought out. You know that this is something I like doing in my fics, and love reading in fics by you, Nynu, Lucky and Shru. The layers and shades; angles, facets and edges, in the so called supporting characters too. SO I am really thrilled that you loved the portrayal of Durga Prasad, Annapurna and Lakshya. More on Ragini will come later. 😊😉 We have this mutual fascination for the compelling character that Ragini is, after all. So much potential, which has rather been frittered away in the serial itself. 😕
And of course, the fact that you loved Sanskaar and Swara here, made me feel quite heady and floating. Being a huge SwaSan fan, that is one of the best compliments I could have been given. 😳🤗
The references to our favorite fauna (scavengers from the Serengeti?) 😆 😉 and the pun on spy(der) were a scream! 😆 🤣 I am grinning now, while typing this! 😆
I shall be back with Chapter 2, shortly after I wrap up the Epilogue on Destined by Choice.
Loads of Love,
----Viji
