Ah! Calm down peeps! Can we? Been disappointed reading all negative vibes for the central characters of the show.
3 days. 3 episodes. 3 different emotions. Hatred. Love. Anger. Oh, I love it!
I think before pointing out flaws, we should consider a few things. I said this before in a post (here) too. That, Naina or anyone for that matter, is hypocritical/flaw if they don't analyze their actions of the past. Btw, we all are flawed - resolving stuff as life unfolds..
What we are forgetting here is that, this is a story! We can't make judgments when the show has only reached midway. We can only pinpoint flaws in characters if the show was over. As I said earlier, life happens. It's impossible to learn from your mistakes right away (the bigger life mistakes I mean). How many times we learn or realize things years or months later.. I know I have years later and I have gone like shit seriously I was such a foolish and @#$#@$_# person to think otherwise back then. What I did after I realized at that point of time matters.. coz, of course, I can't change the past. We learn as life happens.. and similarly so will the central characters of the show. It's their life unfolding before us, it hasn't unfolded.. as yet.
In today's episode, it was very clear, creatives wanted to show Sameer is innocent. Arjun was the one who started the fight, slapped Munna, choked Sameer. What happened was a result Sameer trying to save himself. I am mentioning this because there's a reason to show this that clearly. Thats coz its going to be addressed later that Arjun was at fault (aka Sameer forgiving + Arjun confessing).
From now onwards, its gonna be a journey of many characters understanding each other from life experience. The people who need to resolve the issues are,
1) Chacha and Chachi
2) Naina and Sameer -- Naina will understand Sameer to eventually forgive him
2a) Sameer and Naina -- As in, Sameer will understand Naina's POV on hiding past, the whys etc, to eventually forgive her
3) Arjun and Sameer -- Arjun will realize his mistake + Sameer will learn to forgive
To some extent,
4) Arjun and Rakesh -- Not from Rakesh's side but Arjun needs to understand the pressure of his father. I doubt Rakesh will change at the stage he is in life.
These characters will grow in the upcoming track. From the learnings, mainly, what do Arjun, Sameer and Naina takeaway from this journey is to watch out for. They will have the highest amount of growth and as a result, will resolve their respective issues. Now, how they do that is the journey for us. The happenings of the journey IS the story we get to WATCH.
As an avid viewer of good content, I love following journeys from which I might either relate/connect to or learn from their lives to better mine. This is the only drama show I watch at the moment as recently I didn't find good content which will keep me engaged. I always lost interest and it became really lame with its logic. Yeh Un Dino keeps me engaged with a lot of nostalgia, with friendships to die for, with a love story to enjoy, with a lot of innocence and with the characters I can relate to totally (I find myself in Sameer and Naina a lot).
It's such a feel good show. Creatives have really connected the dots well so far and I am sure they will in the future. I am ready to give them the benefit of doubt that the logic won't be lame at some point. I think am gonna step back from the forum for a while and perhaps come back when the time is right.. Am looking forward to see how Naina and Sameer understand and grow together in their lives and embrace each other with the beautiful emotion of love! Enjoy the show!
Cheers!
