Finally its the last day for PV. I still remember how excited I was when I heard the news of this show, first finite war series, histo fantasy, something I would have always wanted Ashish to do.
I think I have never been so excited for any show even before it started, than I had been for PV. The day we got the news for PV, me and Thushi started looking for jodi names for Ashish- Sonarika pairing π
The promo took my excitement to another level. From making VMs even with the small glimpses of the promo, to clicking pictures of the banners of PV in metro stations... Ahh! Those days can never forget them!!! π³
Coming to the show, from story to acting by the whole cast, from VFX to costumes everything was perfect. I felt presentation could have been better but leaving aside the flaws, I loved the show
The show is dealing with a concept which we usually don't see. True repentance can wash all crimes. How many times have we heard it, but to show it is something complex. Because repentance is treated as pretense and hypocrisy by the world. But team did justice to the concept. Mrinal never accepted Singhdant's apology but the way Prithvi turned the tables made Mrinal understand the meaning of remorse and ask for forgiveness from Prithvi, n he forgave her.
For a change is was wonderful to see FL who is filled with hatred and ML who is peace loving. Atleast for once let the ML go lengths to prove his love to heal the FL and FL be hard to crack ππ
About role reversal I would like to add something. PV gave a perfect role reversal not just through storyline but through body language as well. The way Mrinal walk's is so strong, like usually Angry Young Men walk and Prithvi, I just love the way he bows his head and says "Rajkumari" eyes full of respect and love... Mrinal is even elder to Prithvi π
Best part about PV is both Prithvi n Mrinal are similar yet different. Both go through pain but experience in a different way. While Mrinal's eyes always has pain, Prithvi's eyes never show the amount of pain he's suffering, his eyes are ever smiling.
Mrinal is strong warrior princess and tough from outside, but she is the most emotional girl from inside. Her love for Prithvi is seen in her eyes not in her words.She is one of the most complex n grey character I have seen.
And Prithvi is really like a mystery. On the face of it, he looks like totally crazy in love but in reality he is a man with his own goals. He is the most colorful n unpredictable character in the show. He is soft hearted, lovable, forgiving, but at the same time, he's diplomatic n smart warrior king and above all his love for Singhdant n Sindhu n Mrinal has been unbelievably beautiful.
Mrinal takes up the path which is existing, like making Tailap the king as she's the princess of Manyakhet. N forces people to walk in that path. Whereas Prithvi, he bends rules, creates his own path n convince people to follow that path. I specially love his techniques of convincing people, from throwing a plate towards Mahakai in the sabha, to making his eyes big big, accepting to get beaten by Kallari and then finally Mrinal he did everything lol infact in Mrinal's case he provoked her more with his poem uff this Prithvi π
PV was the first show of Writers Galaxy but has set a sort of benchmark for all historicals, Hats off to AP Sir. Ashish and Sonarika what to even say about them, they are flawless, both have expressive eyes but they used them in totally different way, according to their character's demand, While Sona's eyes were filled with emotions, showing the feelings which Mrinal hid, Ashish's eyes had a different story to tell all together as Prithvi was a mystery and his eyes were deceptive, they conveyed only that much what Prithvi wanted to convey (Like Mrinal saidπ) . The amount of hardwork they have put is amazing.Usually we don't see FL's putting so much efforts for physical transformation but Sona did it brilliantly, she prepared both mentally n physically for Mrinal. And for Ashish physical transformation has become a child playπ So no surprises to see such an amazing body transformation, hairstyle(his Prithvi look will be my all time fav π³), but the amount of hardwork he has put in by writing poems for Prithvi held me in awe as I translated them recently. There is so much depth in his writing and it forms the most integral part of Prithvi's character. The way he uses his uses his words to get people spell bound. Ashish fully owns the character for me, not only performance wise but to add depth to the writing part of the character as well.
Lastly I will compliment the stellar supporting cast,Sply Sunil (Sindhu) was amazing, Yunus was excellent as Satyashrey, Ashnoor, Mukesh ji, Jitin, Piyali, Sheezan everyone
Just realised I wrote too much so closing it here ππ
