Hi ,
Thanks for reading and giving time to my post, No wonder you got the need to defend kunal ( although it was absolutely unnecessary because I wasn't demeaning kunal as I am aware that ATs are meant for appreciation and not really a place to create adda to criticise the AT character or other characters or actors ) because you haven't really interacted with me or read my write ups in the forum , hence you could not get the correct interpretation of the words and started assuming tone of my post by putting words like "faithful sidekick" which I didn't really use , there is a reason I didn't make a general post here but just quoted nandu because we have been exchanging views for a long time now and she very well understands the interpretation of the words and that's why I didn't get the need to explain much there.
However I understand that we get affected by fictional characters, so it's an attempt from my side to explain to you certain things since my tone and intention has been questioned but before proceeding I would like to request one thing, we aren't unknown to understand that there exists set of views in the forum which are drastically opposite than another set of views , and with the clashes , no one has gone anywhere with the conclusions, so even after reading my explanations if you don't really agree with me , we can just happily agree to disagree and leave it at that.
First of all, it was just a simple post on abinal and I am very much aware that if I just write about kunal , he is way much more than what he shares his relationship with abir , but I wasn't writing about kunal but abinal hence I didn't feel the need to write much , and there is no thumb rule that abinal can't be discussed without the family ..I can very well discuss the brothers in any format I want , i don't think you can direct me on that
Anyways, here are my interpretations , if you don't agree then also its fine
1. "Partners in Crime " it's not just for goofy effects and there is a reason I say "partners" because in their relationship , they are equal entities neither kunal is inferior to abir nor abir is superior to him , they have ended up doing a lot of things together, from making a kidnapping plan for girls , to the Bhaang masti at holi to kunal asking abir to write some shayairs when he was courting mishti to abir making kunal confess that he doesn't really want to divorce kuhu and then helping him reach to kuhu, to kunal supporting abir and going against benba in hijacking nishmish shaadi functions, to then deciding to give a public recognition to parul , to punching ved and going to jail together to all those planned unplanned dance performances and the list goes on ...they chose to be together in most of the funny and serious moments of their life!
2. "Right- hand " I think this word made you think that kunal is abir's sidekick, not at all , right man means the man we trust the most in the unit , believe it or not , abir is the one who trusts kunal the most in rajvansh house...for that matter he doesn't even trust his mom but he trusts his brother, that makes him a right handed man , a man abir can approach to at all times and vice versa as well , also more than meenu , its kunal whose opinions matter to abir the most in rajvansh family and he would also patiently wait to explain things to him , we don't see that level of patience with meenu or even with mishti at times.
3. "Satellite and planet" Again its not a demeaning word , infact if you see I named abir a planet ..its an aspect of the relationship which I name it as planet- satellite ... the technological life on earth and space life outside would come to a halt if satellites weren't orbiting around, they are also smart to decode any danger coming our way..kunal is someone whose life unknowingly revolves around abir more than anyone , that's his love, care and concern , he always wanted to protect his brother from people he felt aren't proper for abir, be it mishti , baba or nishant, that's ways kunal has intelligence to decode personalities and he is quick than abir there , I also remember how when kunal gets to know about his birth truth, his immediate reaction was "Am I still your nanko, bhai ?" , it wasn't about meenu's son or being part of rajvansh family but just about "abir's nanko" , that itself shows how much this particular relationship matters to him , also scientists use satellites to get info from other planets for a purpose, in a similar fashion sometimes meenu asks kunal to just see what abir mishti , mishbir or nishant are upto but just like satellites have their own artificial intelligence, kunal in a way ends up doing is right at the moment like immediately decide to free kuhu from a relationship he knew was more of a mistake from his side to deciding not to spike nishant's drink and so on , in an abstract way and in a healthy manner I relate his character like that ...in just a hatke way I name the characters as planets moon satellites north stars 3D lenses and what not , my regular readers understand the purpose very well , I hope you also understood now
4."Abir treats kunal as his own child " He does , not by words but by absolute actions, abir knows kunal is a honest loving man by heart but seriously misunderstood by mishti and more or less is misguided by meenu , that's the reason at times abir had to struggle to find a balance between kunal and mishti, In these age and times when brothers fight for petty things and decide to stay apart by dividing it all and focusing on thier own life and love relationships, abir always decided to understand kunal otherwise which brother would remain calm when he realises his little brother committed a cyber crime to damage his girlfriend's image, which brother remains calm when he realises his brother played a game of marriage to equal scores or keep the girlfriend away from him , which brother remains calm when his little brother presents prenup papers to his would be fiance on the day the rishta gets fixed , and ultimately which brother would ultimately let go the love of his life to ensure his little's brother's identity is protected and he is not really demeaned and thrown away from the house like his mother threatened ! He decided to cut off all ties from mishti and just be around kunal all his life , and later when he saw meenu is still using kunal as a "sidekick" in her plans , that become a moment for him to reveal the truth to make an independent entity ...that day when abir chose kunal , it proved that kunal mattered to him the most , I don't know if you would understand this or not , but I think for a parent , his child matters to him more than himself and for the child, the parent become the world , the purest relationship on this planet can be, is of a parent - child .. in that sense I call them parent - child !! In these times when even blood related brothers don't think so much , these destiny related brothers can just die for each other happily ..pyaar ke rishteys after all ! Abir had lost his father at a very young age , he knows the pain of the absence of father's figure in life and that's why he tries his best that kunal also dosent go though the same, of course kunal considers meenu as her mother and father both but he really shares an emotional bonding as a child with abir by keeping his vulnerable uncensored side open to him !
5."Abir kunal and the business" First of all in these modern times , don't make it sound as of it's only elder's son obligation to take up responsibilities n all ...ladki naa nahi keh sakti , bada bhai hi business sambhale , shaadi jisse family chahe usse hi ho , YRHPK is exactly breaking these kind of stereotypes....so it's not like haaye abir ne nahi sambhala toh kunal ko sambhalna pada haaye bichara. ..this was never the case ,both the boys chose their careers themselves, abir is into app developing and NGO services and is not dependent on the family , he is doing it all by himself , on the other hand kunal studied business administration and we all know business is his first love aur ghar ka acha khaasa set up already hai so he joined it and happily contributing to it , and acha lage ya nahi , its meenu who is running the family business for years ( with the support of kunal now ) and paying for family expenses , she is still hail and hearty and much capable of handling things all alone too , Da vansh toh voh hi sambhal ti hai akele, kunal has a separate unit Red Pear now .....Neither of the boys are paying for family and handling them , it's meenu who does that , benba ko underestimate mat karo, also ab baat nikli hi hai toh let me quote the man himself:
"I do it because i like it , it is my company , I have expanded it , it's my hard work and that was my choice to do , no one forced me " also he said " My brother has done a lot for me already, so much that I would never be able to do that for him , and he did that because he loves me a lot and I don't want to test his love and care because he doesn't need to prove anything to anyone " ....
These lines are from the latest episode before lockdown and I think when the man says himself we can really believe, now please don't say he doesn't really mean these words , kunal is one character who fearlessly speaks his mind and is brutally honest and i really appreciate this quality !
6. "Abir kunal and family" last but not the least, wouldn't bore you much but I won't waste my energy again ...we all know how rich of a family man kunal is, he participates in family business, gets ready to marry a girl of family's choice and I know there is so more to it also, he has dedicated his life to his family but I am not writing here because the post has already been so long and I think we aew pretty much clear on this topic and if you really wish to read what abir means to a family, read my reply to our fellow member aqua post on "abir a family guy"
..
Thank you so much for reading and I can very well understand if you can not still not agree with me., however my words were not demeaning and this long post is not my justification but just explanation of the words that I have used, I think it's a common sense , that if I am posting an emotional video that highlights abinal bond here in kunal AT , I would do that to appreciate kunal and not demean him in his own AT. I don't resort to such things and that's not the kind of person I am.
Henceforth, I would appreciate if you can once ask me to give clarification on the hatke words used rather than assuming and being so defensive about it already, however I can understand when we have immense love for a character then certain post can hit us in a wrong direction , so its always better to clarify
And Abinal bond can much more than this also , but It is my choice to analyse and write the way I want , for nandu's post, I just selected a few words to describe abinal in my style and that no where implies that it's the only understanding I have of then !...
Also in the post, I had added that I hope this bond keeps going stronger , m sure again these two are ready to take on new challenges coming their way
Thanks,
Uru.
