“Have you ever been in love? Horrible, isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses. You build up this whole armor, for years, so nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life… You give them a piece of you. They don't ask for it. They do something dumb one day like kiss you, or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so a simple phrase like "maybe we should just be friends" or "how very perceptive" turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a body-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. Nothing should be able to do that. Especially not love. I hate love.”
-Neil Gaiman
What apt words do define the prerogative that Happy took years ago by misplacing her trust on Rocky! I did happen to watch the episodes and Donal, despite being a good actress, is not Happy for me. I watched it for the sheer brilliance of Rocky and his emotions. They say that passionate men-when they fall in love- Make epic love stories! Yes, they do. So did Rocky. No matter how much Rocky has wronged Harleen but I still relate to his pain, his anger, his angst and his helplessness. When you lose someone you love, generally people heal when they have closure. But sadly, Rocky and Happy never really had a closure for their love. Most of their feelings were unspoken and then it catapulted into a vile turn of events.
Why CVs why? Why did you have to create this epic layered character and then ruin the storyline with Bomb, narcotics and what not!
Addiction, a word that rightly consumed Rocky for 3 long years and a yearning of 6 long years. The thoughts of Happy consumed him every single second.
No one is a culprit more than Happy. Instead of taking things in her hand, she should have placed more importance to exposing RVs crime. Sometimes, we take unilateral decisions without even an iota of understanding of it’s repercussions. And what better lesson than a massive catastrophic ruining of an entire family and Harleen too!
I loved the questions Rocky posed today. Her assumptions aren’t true. Everything is devastated! That’s what she doesn’t understand. Happy was wrong and will always be. Nothing can justify her actions and now all bear the consequences of her actions.
Six long years, he grieved and grieved for what? To see the woman whom he couldn’t breathe without living without him? His grief is shattering. Harleen’s grief is heart breaking. Yes, I grieve for her too. No matter how shallow and selfish, every woman has a right to happiness. A woman tormented for no reason. A shy bride meets a shivering bizarre groom. What about her misery?
Rocky is consumed by her thoughts and it will always be the same.
I don’t feel anything for Donal because for me she isn’t Happy but Ansh is flattering as Rocky. Such a depth in his pain.
I wish things were different and the show was with AnshMin!
P.S- This post has been heavily inspired from the wonderful video posted by Ansh on his Instagram.
