Love and its manifestations in 4 Lions Films Shows
Love. One word that has inspired many poets. A word that has moved mountains (almost literally), has been cause of wars and led to path of death and destruction. It is a roller coaster ride on which one experiences emotions from ecstasy to despair. One may crave the emotion while other renounce it but can one say it does not exist? No. Or at least we don’t think so. Some say love makes the world go around. A pragmatic person might denounce it as a romantic notion, befitting movies and novels. But ask a person in love and you might see them nod in agreement.
4 Lions Films have romantics in form of Gul Khan, Nissar Parvez and Gorky. They have epitomized the word romance in every series they have produced. Be it Geet – Hui Sabse Parayi, Humse Hai Life, Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon, Suvreen Guggal – Topper of the Year, Arjun – Har Yug Mein Aayega Ek or Qubool Hai. And we are not just talking about romance between the leads namely Raghav (Himansh Kohli) and Sia (Abigail Jain), Suvreen Guggal (Smiriti Kalra) and Yuvraj Singh (Shivin Narang), Maan Singh Khurana (Gurmeet Choudhary) and Geet Handa (Dhrashti Dhami), Arnav Singh Raizada (Barun Sobti) and Khushi Kumari Gupta (Sanaya Irani), Arjun Suryakant Rawte (Shaleen Malhotra) and Roshini (Sameeksha Singh), Asad Ahmed Khan (Karan Singh Grover) and Zoya Farooqui (Surbhi Jyoti. We are also talking about romance amongst the mature couples namely Dilshaad Ahmed Khan (Shalini Kapoor), Raashid Ahmed Khan (Vaquar Shaikh) and Shireen Ahmed Khan (Shabnam Sayed) and Raashid , Lovely Guggal (Ekta Sharma) and Baldev Guggal ( Akshay Anand).
What is love? Is it better to have loved and lost than not to have loved at all? Ask Arjun Suryakant Rawte and one may not find a yes. Is love then to possess? Ask Khushi Kumari Gupta if what Shyam felt for her was love and again would you find a yes? Is love then to sacrifice? Ask Dilshaad and she would not agree with the sacrifice that Raashid has made for her as love or will she? What about Sia? Was it love that made Raghav abandon her? Is love then to let someone go? For Suvreen has let Yuvraj go when he said that he only sees her as a friend. Does loving someone mean that you set them free, if they come back, its yours, else it never was? Is love acceptance? For Maan Singh Khurana accepted Geet with another man’s child. Is love compromise? For Shireen seems to have compromised with her fate as she knows that somewhere Raashid does love Dilshaad as well or a little more than her.
Love is a feeling. A feeling of anticipation, confusion, hesitation, jealousy, rivalry and pain. Can one compartmentalize and say I only want to feel one and not other? Don’t we all go through each and every stage of love. 4 Lions Films have shows us different hues of love. In Geet, it’s Maan’s acceptance. In IPKKND, for Arnav its understanding. In Suvreen, it’s Suvreen’s strength of love. In HHL, love is second chance for Sia, In Arjun – love is pain. In Qubool Hai, love is denial, for Asad and sacrifice for Raashid. Love and its avatars in all their shows have one common thread. Divinity, blessing, gift. In each show, they bring you a polychromatic collage, that shows that meaning of love changes for every person; love can define a person but not be the definition of love.
4 Lions Films have produced shows that render stories filled with love and passion. Through characters, we have seen rendition of emotions that would take you through veritable fields of gold to deserts of time. Each character has taken you through the wringer of emotions and extracted every drop from you as an audience in form of praise, criticism or question.
