You know I haven't watched S1 (I was actually busy watching Tom and Jerry and playing with my doll house then🤣) barring a few episodes on Youtube after the reboot announcement.
My mom resonates the same sensibilites like yours... According to her Pre-RB arc was the highlight of S1. She still gushes over how organic their journey was. From forced marriage to being friends. Then them being each others philosopher-guide-and mentor apart from being parents to each others' kids and the ultimate love that has been nothing but a natural progression over the time. the love was nothing but an organic culmination of all the ups and down that they went through the journey they shared together. RB became worthy of Pre when he regretted his wrong doings and redeemed himself.
Even today, my mom is such a mush when it comes to them...😆
Doll house and tom-jerry?😆 U must be a kid then? I don't know how young you are but I am 29.5 now and at that time I was in 8th std, so I had come out of doll house but ya, would still watch Tom n Jerry 😆
I myself was a huge PRB fan in S1( and this coming from a crazy AP fan who hated Bajaj and my journey of how I fell in love with Bajaj and then jumped ships )
but now I cannot stand Pre-Rish.
Yes, that's the word. Organic. There was no suprise, shock or even ping -pong feeling of Pre falling for RB. It was something so beautiful.
I am not against negative characters or villians. Show them as bad if they are. That's what they did with S1 bajaj. Made him ruthless, bad, egoistic and obsessed. We disliked him, kind of hated him too. And then his slow transformation in few years , the journey was beautiful.
You cannot show negative characters as ideal and then expect ppl to love him. This is what is wrong this season. Don't whitewash. Period.
