Great interview! I quit the show a long ago but this interview was great piece of article to read. Only wishing GM the best for his future endeavors.

One thing I liked was that the purpose of exit remained anonymous. Whatever presumptions one wants to make, to each their own. 😆Even resonating with the struggles was a nice point, they toiled hard to deserve their place.

Him crediting the team including ST and his director (Rahul Tiwari) was a sweet thing to mention. It was indeed organic and resonated, complete top-notch acting delivered.

Lol, the kaala tikka bit was a bit witty but damn right true, can't shut everyone's mouths. 😆 The takeaway of character is good answer 👍🏼.

Yes, absolutely loved the take-away bit. Good reminder for.us also to not get too attached to fictional characters who are nothing but a figment of someone's imagination!

For example, the timeline thing perplexed me a bit with the two months of working & whatnot. Felt a bit too long of an answer TBH. If it was decided and if its business, then just complete the work and whatnot.

Second thing was "the Aryan acceptance and Aditya being wrong." I felt something was fishy in that response like PR response. Because shouldn't it focus on why he left? It's quite subjective here.

Maybe I found some of the parts a bit cliched as a response. 😆

I don't know while the article did have good pointers, certain parts were really amusing to me or probably "joke of the century" kinda thing.

Especially the Aryan acceptance and Aditya being wrong, that is a subjective thing. After 200+ episodes of build up and then telling to accept the change, I don't know but that felt fishy to me as a response.

Well, whatever anonymous kichdi happened, still wishing best of luck to GM.

Yeah but certain things in the article do seem to confuse me in a bit because a lot of the questions do take a direct hit at the PH indirectly w/o directly pointing the fingers at it.

I actually felt the questions were very well framed, in that they were exactly the questions people were making speculations about on Twitter etc. He did the right thing by not revealing the reasons for his exit, I think both the PH and GM have handled it extremely professionally. The long answet may have also been to address all rumors out there about Mayuri arm twisting the PH and why AKT's character arc was developed the way it was, to address all the anguish about the show not runnig anymore because GM was exiting etc. etc.

Again, the point about Aryan, I think he was just answering the question of whether it was difficult for him to let go of the character he developed. It may be the "right" answer and not the correct answer, but again, this is an industry where you cannot afford to burn bridges and so I don't fault him for giving politically correct answers, and not reveal more than necessary.

He comes across as an extremely articulate and very affable person who really is passionate about his craft and it shows in his words and actions!

He's very pragmatic and speaks his mind nd some ppl don't have anyother job other than nitpicking faults nd tagging him as a cesspool of narcissism such ppl needs medical help at d earliest. If they don't like him stay away wats d need of constant disparaging of him I don't understand. Today I must say ppl like Gash r so rare in showbizz nd his friendship with Sumbul is d most pristine relationship I have ever seen touchwood!

Yeah. I did not find anything narcissistic about what he has said in the interview. Some people on twitter insinuating that he said he taught Sumbul acting, I can not find that he said that anywhere. In fact he said he and Sumbul clicked so well because she was spontaneous and receptive to his improvizations and they were both helped by Rahul, the director. No where do I see him taking credit for the entire thing being successful because of him, and certanly no where does he say he taught Sumbul to act.

If they are referring to the comment he makes "aise karte hai kya", he talks about the attachment they share as a pair off screen and the liberties he is able to take with her. Nothing about his or her acting at all in that paragraph, unless we are reading different articles! Seriously!

Some people can have nothing nice to say about someone else's achievement or positive experience because you have to rain negativity and misery on everything. And this goes for both GM's and FK's fans who cannot look past the character they play on screen, and have to cast aspersions on them as real persons.

As for me, being a fan of Gashmeer, I do really hope he only sees success in every endeavor of his going forward. He is really that good!

I don't understand what is so wrong about being proud of one's achievement. He is not using that to bring down anyone else or put down someone else's achievement. This is really no different than me updating my LinkedIn profile if I got a promotion at work or if I was given an award at work or something like that!

GM exit as a hero ❤️ . His honest and straight forward answer without pointing out and blaming others . Highlighting Sumbul’s and His struggle . The bonds they have together . 🤗

He rather have his character to be butcher for the other person to be accepted . Imlie without him is not the same .

I been hating Mayuri , but now I reaslised , how her character also been butcher just to cater the new entry .

Time will tell the progress of Imlie . Sigh ……….

Let's not pin the entire credit of "accepting" only on Gashmeer. Mayuri's character was butchered way before Aryan's entry and we all know that was only to justify Adilie's relationship. As much as we may hate Malini's character, that is a fact we cannot ignore. So if Gash is graceful in accepting the downfall of his character, so is Mayuri. Even more so, I would say, because she is continuing in the serial as a negative character.

And she is a woman who went through a great personal tragedy with losing her spouse to suicide, so total respect to her in this regard. We're not sure if there are issues she has with the other on set etc., but in this regard, she totally deserves respect.

Yes, that is what i am saying , Mayuri character also got butchered .

Yes, Zu-ji. But please note that butchering was not only for the new entry, it was also to prop up Adi and Imlie's charcters.

But in any case, Adilie was a wonderful dynamic and together they really created magic on screen. Really hope we get to see that dynamic elsewhere, in a webseries or something!
