sorry long post!
Ek aur baat hai ... why do we want to always think of this as character assassination... simply accept him for who he is ...
His traits were shown from the beginning
Extreme compassion - why he is now a devoted husband and choosing to live life without love
Responsible - Why he remained steadfast in his commitment to Arshi
Jalkukada with an impulsive nature - AK incident, Rahul, etc...
Manipulative - did for Jhanak to protect her and now he is doing it to make Arshi believe he loves her
Extreme logical human being - I like to think why he did not intervene in the police investigation but did wish for Jhanak to be proven innocent
Brave, kind-hearted, accepting of his mistakes when he is wrong, respecting woman's choice, going above and beyond for justice, emotional IQ of a kid ...
He is a mixture of all of these, but what I have generally seen people focus on is his actions towards Jhanak and only Jhanak... because people just assume he is madly in love with Jhanak and nothing else matters to him more than Jhanak in his life. They have this Kabir Singh image of Anirudh in mind, which is a mad guy who loses it when something happens to Jhanak. But the truth is for both of them they chose to choose something else above each other. The sooner we accept this truth the better it is. If Jhanak can choose to leave Anirudh and choose dance over him, then he also has the right to not help Jhanak and think about Arshi first, he has the right to move on. Jhanak moved on, why cant he? Just because one confessed and the other one kept lying? lol
Think about it this way .. his care towards Jhanak was also a result of his extremely compassionate nature! To the extent he has gone to help Jhanak, no one in real life does that. But that was also not just because he loved Jhanak but also because he had an extreme sense of justice embedded in him. I dare to say, this is why he did not stand in the way of Arshi getting justice even if it came at the cost of Jhanak. This question is always a topic of discussion did he trust Jhanak or not? Why don't we just say, he chose to stand by Arshi because she was hurt? Because we have seen him always fight for what's right, Jhanak is no exception. I think this thought of Jhanak doing something wrong pained him (he says that in mono), so he chose not to think about it but rather kept his focus on arshi. In the end, he hurt Jhanak's feelings though and when you hurt someone like that, it does not matter if you were right or wrong, you just have to make up for it. That is why he wants to apologize to Jhanak... Hope they have a good heartfelt conversation about this ... so people can put this to rest ...
So break the "mad lover image" of Anirudh Bose in mind because he is a lot more complicated than that. He is a lot of other things as well, he cares for a lot of other things as well, he is imperfect but his love is pure and true. He says himself he is wrong, but that is ok. He has right to be wrong right? Or do we expect him to not make any mistakes? He is a human being after all and look at the complex traits he has, look at all that he has been through, his family, his relationship with Arshi... all of this also plays a part. You know I have declared all three of these leads gray long back, so to me what he does makes no difference now. Because he is gonna drive everyone crazy but he is also going to win hearts back.
Yes,..I absolutely agree.....so beautifully written......
It is true ....bcz of the attachment to RuNak...we do judge each of his action in context to that....We expect him to be the doer .But Ani as a character is extremely complex and with a lot of layers...
The kind of life he has had, relationships he has endured...the way he has lived all his life by being the pacifist,.only and only craving for acceptance...even before Jhanak came into picture...makes him much more than Jhanak 's Ani....
A person with his own principals, his own rules.....his own way of dealing things ..but a very pure hearted man...whose love is very very pure ...To the extent he went to support Jhanak and stand for her even when she is a stranger tells us how much his sense of justice and compassion drives him and to what extent.....
A guy with pure intent and mad mistakes...whom you can't help but fall in love with...is what Anirudh Bose is for me ..
he uses excuses
