@Shaheer_S I am ever so glad you lived the Bekhayali track most bcos that was the one that REALLY hit me hardest too. Abir's internal struggle, slowly dying inside while putting up a show of normalcy was perhaps the TOUGHEST portrayal for ANY actor to do #YehRishteyHainPyaarKe
You not only played it to perfection but also added your own million nuances to involve the viewer in so damn deep that every time Abir hurt, I hurt. BAD. Every expression, every wince, every swallowed sob was like a dagger thru the heart. #YehRishteyHainPyaarKe #ShaheerSheikh
There were a million layers to the portrayal there. Abir was still being the son to Meenu in front of everyone but take a closer look and he NEVER met Meenu's eyes. NOT ONCE. Abir kept his physical distance from her too all thru #YehRishteyHainPyaarKe #ShaheerSheikh
But with Parul, Abir still had his facade but he cud not help but show some of his emotions to her. You portrayed a slight lowering of Abir's defences there- subtle, so subtle that it was SENSED, not seen #YehRishteyHainPyaarKe #ShaheerSheikh
With Kunal, we cud see Abir's fear, his protective nature in full force but forcibly subdued so Kunal does not get wind of what's happening. Abir was closest to himself only with Kunal in that track, the smile pained but full of affection. #YehRishteyHainPyaarKe #ShaheerSheikh
Abir's whole body screamed for help, it was not just those gorgeous eyes emoting there but Shaheer's whole personality taking on the misery of Abir, imbibing it, soaking the track and its pain in to come out with a truly phenomenal portrayal #YehRishteyHainPyaarKe #ShaheerSheikh
In solitude, Abir's shoulders sagged instantly, his steps slowed down, faltered as he let the true misery of his position allow itself to be felt. Not a single word needed to be spoken, but pages and pages conveyed by this brilliant actor #YehRishteyHainPyaarKe #ShaheerSheikh
Be it the diary writing scene or the drunk scene or the bus roof scene, Abir's defeated posture had its own saga to tell. #YehRishteyHainPyaarKe #ShaheerSheikh
The mark of a truly consummate artist- when he can communicate deep, hard hitting emotions without speaking a word, without even looking into the camera. #YehRishteyHainPyaarKe #ShaheerSheikh
And THERE , this man stood tall in that entire track, portraying Abir's desolation and hopelessness to perfection. #YehRishteyHainPyaarKe #ShaheerSheikh
From the ever happy, ever smiling, ever positive Abir just a few months earlier to the Abir whose soul had been ripped out of his body- the transition was simply flawless during the Bekhayali track #YehRishteyHainPyaarKe #ShaheerSheikh
@Shaheer_S thank you for putting your life, soul, heart into every track even though it takes so much out of you. Abir is yet another example of your versatility, of your ability to adopt literally ANY persona and portray it to perfection. #YehRishteyHainPyaarKe #ShaheerSheikh
Thank you for giving so much of yourself to your fans. I do hope you know how many hours of pure pleasure you give us with your work. No matter what you do, where you go, there are ppl like me whose wishes and love envelop you #YehRishteyHainPyaarKe #ShaheerSheikh
