lovely lovely post! & so refreshing in perspectivei also feel like the dimension to rishi helps leave a lot to dissect and discuss. he is a character that can either be easily judged without thought, or thoroughly intriguing by the amount of contradictions and anomalies he produced. for example, we should dislike those who lie, but when does that fine line between a white lie fade? especially when the one who has erred is willing to be punished?
i wrote this as i was watching the THURSDAY show in the AT (sorry, its a bit much😳)
-i really liked how rishi kept quiet as sameer leveled all those lies along with only one true fact and one distortion. fact, rishi is ricky diwan; distortion, their parents arent fully happy with ricky (this will lead to another thing i noticed). the rest were ALL lies. being third party viewers, no matter how the scenes were delivered, we all accept that in his own way rishi tried his best to hhelp indira and the sharmas. he learned a lot over the last few months, and if he was the perfect complimentary personality from the beginning, he also started becoming a better partner for indira. that's what relationships should do, make the other person want to be better, to improve and grow, as well as complete the points which came to lack. i really want indira to come to her own decisions regarding rishi, i do not want him to restate everything he has done for her in any way, because indira's decision can not be helped. she has always been one to decide and act, and she will never be fully at peace if she had compromised that right of hers. she wanted rishi to give her an easy answer, but the fact that he kept that truth, him being ricky, unfaltered as well as those looks of turmoil and silence ..i think he did the right thing. this show is mainly about indira, thus we need to see how and why she makes the decisions she does. how will she judge things with the information presented, and being wise, she will realize that sameer is equivalent to her entire sharma (minus sunaina) family. he's manipulative, secretive, lying, vain and wrongly ambitious. this is her crossroads, and i am excited to see what fork she will take and whether the path will be more rocky or easy than it should be.
-then simi said that rishi has never made his parents proud, that his emphatic and emotional characteristics annoy his father ...it gave huge background information to rishi and made sense why he acts the way he does. he has always tried solving things in his own rash way, because like all individuals seeking approval, he wanted to gratify someone. to receive a sense of approval .. probably something that his father never conveyed to him. sameer must have cared for his little brother, but seeing how he revels in one-upping rishi and taking advantage of his lackings, i doubt he minded rishi being the black-sheep. the next stern figure in rishi's life should be indira, and slowly he has come to learn her ways and adapt to them as well as adopt them, and her affection are akin to approval. finally he is beginning to matter to someone, to belong. how does he contest and fight her disappointment when his previous flaws and lackings are well-known to him .. when he couldn't pacify other people in his life? once again, this is a decision and act of indira's that will have a domino effect.
-is it just me, or do you also feel like indira is more hurt than believing rishi wanted her property.
-sharmas are lame, thank god for sunaina ...comedic relief. and the fun music they play in times of tension.
-rishi is looking totally broken and helpless with his one tear and lost look - im liking it. his fate should be in indira's hand and he needs to man up and thoroughly knock sameer off his horse. (side note, did sumit really get his lip split by accident by the baby lady?)
-at break but this firsst segment leaves me thinking that two different families, two different types of relationships, two different types of financial situations - and yet indira and rishi face the same role within their families. the one to get the blame, the one manipulated, and then ones to be hurt without hesitation. who's situation is worse? i would definitely say indira, but on a more general note, i feel like the wealthy youth face this dilemma in real life. so many films and news articles are written about how they face all these psychologically problems.
okay, so im really liking how rishi is breaking away from the playful romance and telling indira to evaluate him as a friend because he had been that before HD turbocharged their romance. (the romance was really the only way they could lead into the sameer-indira-ricky thing, rishi's truth, and the family problems ...did HD dig themselves into this hole, because stating it as thus kinda breaks the heavy layers it so well weaves into a skeleton of a very basic plot formula. if so, then this just attests to HD's good scripting) anyway, back to point, he is telling indira how she's positively affected him and i think that's the best thing he can do. i get so annoyed when people try justifying falsities and never learn from their mistakes. we can fix a mistake but not an error.
-also, i can see that indira is understanding rishi - her throwing him out will hurt her heart but in all truth, i think she needs her space to think. any girl will feel so hurt, so betrayed - being a female i can empathize with her & realize her emotions are justified. sometimes people want a show to follow a slight unreality without understanding sometimes they want to break this fantasy world indian serials so well create. HD is one such show. indira is a female, one who has to take the responsibility of a male, she is hurt, she is stubborn, she can come into her emotional rages, and she is not supposed to be perfect - just full of conviction.
- I feel like both sides have laid the field open and are fully justified in their reasons and emotions .. let's hope the story progresses well.
-so we've gotten the rest and full jist of rishi's background and life. it answers a lot of questions.
-also, a lot of my thoughts we touched upon from the previous two posts
-end thoughts: indira will definitely think about the crossroads she has been lead to because the issues with the sharmas will always remain, but rishi is a definitive moment of her life. without him, i see her feeling incomplete but i do not seeing her able to accept him happily without all the dirty laundry aired and sheets ironed.
-i want rishi to now give a rebuttal to sameer, i want him to face him and fight honestly and rightly...not like how sameer decided his course of actions.
-when vidit's truth comes out, i hope we learn that he wasn't injured by rishi. it would just make it impossible to believe indira would accept him unless HD spent a year or showing rishi making up for it all, or some silly leap where his actions finally made him acceptable to indira. i want him to be the person that helped vidit because he was his friend, because it was necessary. rahul seems to be a mutual friend.
