Indi di, Indu,
That mirroring of actions by ASR & Shyam. Was that similarity shown to highlight shyam's position or how much he was valued by the raizada family? So that when the blow came, its impact was so much more. Jeejaji's special pain balm ๐Yes, shyam's creepy music did give out his evil side!๐I'll take payaliya's jethji's music anyday๐
I get what you're saying indi di. I felt in the beginning there was this feeling that asr and akash also sort of looked upto shyam, that peeping out from behind newspapers to watch shyam manaofying Anjali๐ But yes, we felt the baddie was the nice guy (he did come across as the nice one) and the good guy as the baddie, who was absolutely not politically correct๐
kizh,
that could be the case. but to establish shyam's position, they could have used the relationship he has cultivated with everyone and the very fact he is damad gives him a special place. i felt there was a reason they mirrored the protagonist and the antagonist... it had a twist in its very conception. and a nice touch there, you'll think hero is baddie, you'll think baddie is achha ladka, then you'll realise your folly... then you'll watch them saying and doing similar things and yet know how vastly different they are, brings a certain traction to the telling of story, i guess... neat crafting.
also a beautiful way to reveal character... throw the same thing at the two, and see what each one does with it.
payaliya's jeth ji has just given me heart ache and attack at once. episodes 219/220.
i wish abhas hadn't put on so much weight and become flat in his portrayal... he was so good when it alls started... just rightly slimy and creepy.
His di was his weakness, the focal point of his life, which made him overlook many things, including his jeeja's activities. And yes, like you had mentioned shyam was not that flat character he later became. You felt there was more to him. I watched the guesthouse episodes the other day, and I think it is 29, where Anjali is on the phone with shyam and telling him about chottey's and nani's fight and how only he could talk some sense in to them. And shyam was busy fretting over khushiji and poor chottey was also in a tizzy over her! Hayee re^^
hi kizh,
i just edited that post above... realised i was talking about something else. yeah... the mirroring had many uses, you're right.
and where exactly is this payaliya's jeth ji...
