"We, all who live, have
A life that is lived
And another life that is thought,
And the only life we have
It's the one that is divided
In right or wrong."
Sharing few favourite lines of mine written by a famous Portuguese writer to explain my thoughts about the protagonist who is an anti hero in true sense indulging in activities which is morally wrong and should be punished under laws. He leaves no reasons left for us to defend his deeds and make us feel angry yet helpless. Rizwan Ahmed khan makes me confused when I fail to detest him, makes me question my sense of righteousness everyday with his emotional madness. who is he? what is driving him actually? What his ulterior motive end of the day? Whom should I believe? The man who does not think twice before being immoral and steal security papers or the man who uses those papers to safeguard his so called sister's husband's life? A man who so deeply feels about the woman he shares his life with or the man so heartless in cold voice utters that he can never forget his nation and his mission to avenge. The more I see different facets of this character, the more I get entrapped in the web of conflict.
Today's episode showed the two sides of him so distinctly and so starkly that it becomes very clear that it will be battle of emotions for me too to decide which side should I take. The line between right and wrong in terms of this character is getting blurred day by day and its a difficult task to have a monochromatic viewpoint about him. A grey shaded character who make us think, who make us feel, who evoke gamut of emotions in us and for that the writers surely deserves a big round of applause. So here it is Bravo writers for sketching an unusual edgy character who hurts yet heals.❤️⭐️👍🏼
Coming to my favourite scenes of the day, each and every scene of Rizwan stole the show today for me. But the showstealer was a daughter's voice which saves a father in danger unknown to him. He adores her, admits to his gang members that the darling daughter belongs to his soul when he says Meri Kavya ka kya hota? that connection becomes his saving grace and when he comes back and hugs her tight saying its only you who sets things right in my life, makes me decide between right and wrong, you just cant help but shed a tear for this anti hero. knowing that nothing belongs to him and his truth would only lead to his destruction, investing this much emotion and heart in so called fake relationships requires lot of guts and a pure soul devoid of deceit. At that moment Rizwan Ahmed khan defines the words- Raahein aisi jinki manzil hi nahin, dhundho mujhe ab main rehta hun wahin.❤️💔
Another favourite would be the way he showed his restraint over his overflowing impulses to take control of the situation to calm Atif down and save Kukuji. Though he masked his concern by uttering the favourite lines of those morons and gave excuses of him getting caught by intelligence , it was evident that neeti's one phone call made him determined to tackle the situation tactfully. I am glad today for the first time I saw Rizwan to take control of his emotions and command a situation. His angst, his outbursts and his constant emotional breakdowns for Preet and Hoodas would endanger them. Hope he continues to do so.
This struggle of emotions will be constant In Rizwan's life journey along with us I suppose. It eats him up like a corrosive agent does, slowly but steadily. But still he manages to bring smile to the faces who matter, becomes Mr Dependable to all and as Preet pointed the number 1 on the list of all family members. A man who suffers each moment, tries to ease pain from other's lives. Is it possible for an antagonist to do so? An unavoidable question which seeks answers but fails to get any. There is a saying that to know what you are find out what you are not. Hope Rizwan who fails to separate Ishan from his persona finds out who he really is. Don't know whats in store for him, but this man makes me feel so stupid at times, angry in other times and then I end up writing such long posts on him. As I mentioned its a mess. But I am sure his journey would remain as exciting as it is and we will all remain hooked to this.
Do share your thoughts folks. Its becoming one hell of a ride and I am sure we all are enjoying it every bit.
P.S it would be an injustice to dedicate a post on the character without mentioning the actor who breathes life to it. I would be very honest, though I followed Iqbal Khan's most shows knowing his choices and considers him to be a good actor, but I was never a fangirl. I have my fangirl feelings secured for other favourites. Iqbal is one such actor who I know will nevr disappoint and thus I end up following most of his shows. Mr dependable kind, would never do trash. But he surprised me with his acting here giving life to this difficult character. He has sharpened his skills and takes the cake, cherry, cream everything in each episode. A sheer delight for sure. wish he surprises us more. 👏⭐️😳
