Musings

''With any part you play, there is a certain amount of YOURSELF in it. There has to be, otherwise its just not acting. ITS LYING"
- Johnny Depp

We can really tell Kunal is  a great actor because  IN front of the camera he talks, emotes and reacts. We as audience don't have to keep cutting away from him, because He is the language and the behaviour. Its all about tour-de-performance.

To portray an iconic character like 'Mohan Bhatangar' in a show like ' NA BOLE TUM NA MAINE KUCH KAHA' enhances that because the show put  a spin on characters and made them very different. And put core values which were  very different which were  not in the original fairy tales a lot of people related to.

I once heard that the best stories are either about extraordinary  characters in ordinary situations or ordinary characters in extraordinary situations.. We would agree to the fact that the iconic 'Mohan Bhatnagar' broke the mould. he was extraordinary and so were his situations.


What made the character of Mohan Bhatnagar so memorable? Mohan Bhatnagar deviated from social norms and expectations. He had a distinct clothing and accessories and memorable catch phrases. MB had the boy next door good looks, attitude and backstory which till date makes  him an endearing character.

I dearly love the character of Mohan Bhatnagar. Kunal Karan Kapoor played it to the 'T'.A second iconic role will break the image of  MB. I am sure Kunal realises that.. and hence taking his time to give a nod to a new project..

I believe this quote sums up what many Mohan Bhatnagar/ Kunal Karan Kapoor fans feel

" Some times you don't realise the weight of something you have been carrying until you feel the weight of  its release''

For kunal and his legions of fans - The pain that you have been feeling, cannot compare to the joy that's coming.

Three cheers,
