Watching the recent shower of bts, I think there is definite unrest in the ranks.
Jay and Pranali look uncomfortable in the interviews together -the bts that leaked and went viral showed JS was irritated and annoyed with PR taking too many takes and it seems like their working relationship is just cordial. There is no friendship there. And in today’s IV PR was kind of exasperated at JS.
It doesn’t help that JS is all over the place and started off on the wrong foot with the Abhira fandom. He should have remained quiet it’s not easy to break into an established pairing like Abhira who have such a strong following. He is trying too hard and whining too much and he comes across as a cry baby.
HC and PR have been downplaying their onscreen chemistry. It seems like the makers feel they created this jodi on paper and so they can do whatever they want to the Abhira - make or break them. Looks like there is some friction there as well, you have to admit even if the writers wrote them on paper, HC and PR breathed life into the characters with their superior acting. Makers must be salty that the fans are not accepting the cross pairing.
Seems to me the makers planned to completely destroy Abhira but the fandom is not letting go. And the cringe party they are trying on the crosspairs is coming off as very distasteful.
