Frankly ... I am consciously staying away from the forum because it is like a warzone ... I must thank my stars that my browser crashed and I had to login from the beginning ... otherwise I would have missed this wonderful piece.
Yep forum is being devastated from this MU track being drag on and drag on. We don't know what to think any more.
That was destiny! You were meant to read my piece!😉
To begin with ... the idea of writing a letter to yourself is amazing ...
I do that on the regular for myself (that's cheap therapy😛) so it didn't sound so innovative to me but apparently no one does that. Now i feel a bit weird... 😆
someone like Raman may actually do that instead of a monologue .. he is someone who is an expert in bottling up his emotions ... though on surface he looks like a man with a temper and an acidic tongue .. .his inner soul is an emotional wreck ... and whatever turmoil he has gone through in the recent past, this MU which kind of made him hit rock bottom and live through his bruised past one more time is enough for a nervous breakdown of sorts ... this can be totally expected from him...
I couldn't imagine him sitting alone and doing a monologue out loud for himself. Raman would rather drink instead. But now he is on the point where he realize that drinking won't help and he has to face what's going on in his mind and for that, he needs to pen it down. This is writing as therapy.
Letters ... At the cost of sounding from old school, I think there is a certain romanticism and realism about writing on paper which definitely lacks on the laptop ...
Definitely !
sometimes, we need to take out everything the old way ... take it slow ... each letter written and crossed ... each sentence smeared with tears, the pattern of writing depending on the status of your mind ... it tells another story .. something which cannot even be imagined on any electronic media ..
Coming from someone who write regularly both on computer and paper, i can tell you that it's exactly this ! It's less impersonal, you find yourself more easily when you read your own hand writing than a electronic font.
so, I loved that he scribbled everything on paper ... it was his raw state .. his desperation to pour out his heart ... his need to talk and his heart who missed his soulmate, his wife the most ...
Thank you! And yes, that was he was doing. He send his thoughts out in the universe, but it ended as a prayer, trying to reach out to Ishita.
"Say you love me to my face Raman. Just say you want me, that's all it'll take."Last Line from Ishita ... sigh ... girl, could the letter get more romantic and soul stirring ...
Thank you ! Actually i can't take any credit for this line, it's from the song "say you love me" by jessie ware (i've been listening to it on repeat lately so it ended up in my OS).
There was so much of Ishita in this line ...
That's what i felt too ! Ishita doesn't play games, she does need him to manaofy her with gifts or ramance. She just needs to know, once for all, that he wants her in his life. Without this, she can't get close to him. He told her he wanted her in the letter but she needs to hear it from him, so that he don't back up later.
that woman is actually someone who is all about devotion and love ... and as soon as she knows the truth and the vulnerability of her husband .. she is bound to act this way ... all both of them are looking for his love ...
YES. Absolutely !
I cannot say about others but I am someone who has enjoyed this show at least for the past week because I had anticipated this and is eagerly waiting for the future track ...
I like the show as well because of the emotion it makes me feel and because i know it is bound to end up on IshRa being closer but i sometimes get frustrated because it could have been handled better.
I have a problem with the track in general .. I did not want the confession to happen through jealousy because it is the age old track and has been done to death already ... and moreover ...
100% Agree. Confession track should have been build up properly, with flirt sequence, communication and understanding and not being the result of jealousy.
I hated the idea that CV's yet again used the same old formula that a man and a woman cannot have a platonic relationship and be best friends without disturbing the equilibrium of their respective lives ...
I see what you're saying but this show from day one was BOUND to end up in romance tracks. So i don't blame them for that. But in real life, i do agree that a woman and a man can be best friends.
Beyond that ... since they have decided to go the old way . I like the treatment of both the characters ... in my view, both of them are at fault and both of them have committed mistakes which has led to this MU ... but then I knew that I have settled to watch the love story of two flawed individuals with heavy baggage of their respective pasts ... so I anticipated it, and am not complaining ...
Totally ! Lately i'm a bit angry at them for being immature and stubborn because that's not who they really are (they've been butchered in this MU track) and that's not how people are in real life but i do agree that they are both at fault. In my opinion Ishita is more at fault because she is the one who created the MU but Raman was fast to match her when he decided to drink instead of talking it out.
Ohhh dammit ...as usual I end up hijacking the posts which move me ... got to stop doing that ...
I love it ! It's very interesting to share opinions and that's the whole point of IF so never stop doing that ! 😳
Brilliant work girl. I got to find your other works now ...
You're going to be disappointed. It was my only sensitive piece, because emotional is not my forte. Sorry!😕
Cheers
Let me hug you ! 🤗thank you for your comment, i loved reading it and i loved responding to it ! thank you again !
Bhanu.
P.S.: I actually wish something like this happens in the show ... I am surely bookmarking this piece for my future reads ...
