oAnd yes, thank you for the healing vibes! Physically, the aspects of the show - that's literally what we want. Yes, Sanaya-Barun as Khushi-Arnav is the USPo
I am so glad that the podcast has introduced you to all the aspects of the show - that's literally what we want. Yes, Sanaya-Barun as Khushi-Arnav is the USP of the show but this show literally won't be what it is without the directing, producing, the rest of the cast, editing, background scoring and - MOST IMPORTANTLY - writing.
Eeee, thanks for the love for the analysis *big hugglez*
@phati-sari's blog is just awesome. Her dedication is truly unparalleled. Also, some of my fav posts from her blog is the rule of threes and circle (it's one of my favorite gifsets!). You should check it out if you already haven't!
Barun... I simply love him and his acting. I was always a fan of Sanaya and I think she has a stunning range - probably way more versatile than prominent Hindi Cinema actors tbh. Barun was a discovery for me and he's one of my favorite actors to see cause he's brilliant. Stunning.
I feel IPK also worked because it had two of the strongest actors as its leads. The chemistry was explosive and the directors & cinematographers knew their best angles, lighting and expression.
Haha I'm glad you could see the MU under a new light! I mean, all I say is literally my opinion. I loved the setup for the MU, it was so well done and I think what's nice is that the show doesn't try to justify what Arnav did. I think it's important to know the difference between explanation and justification.
I think it's great to understand and explain what characters do. Justification can go a bit grey because at times we might tend to clarify that the characters were right in doing what they did. And I always try to highlight that I understand what Arnav did and why, but also state that despite the understanding there are some lines that he crossed which he shouldn't have.
That helps me from coloring the character through my eyes and analyzing perspectives from as unbiased viewpoint as I can.
So keep analyzing and I hope you love this show more than ever! There's so much to unpack in IPKKND!!!
