Kabhi Kabhie Ittefaq Sey fame Manan Joshi who is known for essaying the role of Anubhav in the show was recently trolled on social media for marrying two women. In the show, Manan’s character Anubhav has been portrayed as a cultured guy who upholds traditional values. However, he ends up being intimate with Gungun (essayed by Yesha Rughani) in the hospital despite being married to Aakriti (essayed by Riya Bhattacharjee).
Viewers were shocked to see Anubhav romancing Gungun and as a result, Manan faced some massive trolling. Fans took to social media to not only ridicule the scene but also called him ‘Bigamist of the year’.
Now in an interview with ETimes TV, Manan reacted to the trolling and being called the Bigamist of the year. He said, “There were few really funny memes which I read and laughed so much. I wanted to share them but I lost hold of them otherwise, I would have shared them. I wasn’t taken aback, somewhere I was expecting that there would be questions. From Manan’s perspective, I was feeling what the fans were going through. Having said that, the memes were really funny. But if you look from the character’s point of view on Anubhav marrying two girls, it is because he has not been able to express himself to the family. Also, he is someone who hasn’t expressed his feelings to himself also. For Anubhav it is that if you love someone you do anything and everything possible. That’s exactly what happened to him. He loves Gungun so much that he has gone out of his way and has also learnt something about himself during the whole process. He is now bound by family and his family has forced him to be with a girl.”
He further shared, “Also, the writers have shown Anubhav onscreen that he has been with Gungun and they have been intimate and none of them has happened with Aakriti. He has always maintained his distance from Aakriti. In fact, whenever she has tried to get close to Anubhav, he has always in a very respectful fashion just let her be away from him. He has never established a relationship of that sort. He might have been in a fix that he has been married to two women but he is wholehearted with one and the other one he is just bound by the situation.”
When asked about his reaction on being called the ‘Bigamist of the year’, he said, “I definitely wouldn’t just laugh over the comments because that is what my fans feel about the character. But Bigamist is a situation where you have committed a crime of marrying two women legally. In Anubhav and Gungun’s case it is their souls that are connected. And there is a relationship that is established by law with Aakriti. Bigamist is something when you are married to two women in all your senses and you are committing that crime on purpose. It is when that person has ulterior motives, but here Anubhav doesn’t have any kind of motives, he doesn’t want to create any kind of crime, he is just listening to his heart and is trying not to do anything wrong to Aakriti. I think it should be fair to Anubhav. I think the fans should be aware of this side of the story on how Anubhav feels.”
