IPKKND Hall of Fame - August Part 2

THE WORLD OF ISS PYAR KO KYA NAAM DOON

[Fan Fiction which is set within the world of Iss Pyar Ko Kya Naam Doon, there may be slight change in the story line and timelines but for the most part the world of IPKKND remains intact and the writers have not taken liberties with the characters or the settings]

Temporary Insanity by Nayika

This is just a delightful piece and a totally different, yet entertaining take on that oh so important word which is the lifeblood of IPKKND “Misunderstanding”. As always, written in a snappy style which seems to by Nayika’s trademark. The dialogues are witty and so in keeping with the onscreen personality of the characters. The flavour of IPKKND has been perfectly retained, in fact it has not just been retained, I would say it has been enhanced by the additional character. No wonder this is the author’s personal favourite…it is my personal favourite too! The ingenuity of the author in writing this piece is commendable.

Note to Author: Sure would love to read a new piece, given the current turn of events onscreen!

Careless Whisper by Meera30

What does one write about Careless Whisper! It's a difficult task, indeed.

A piece that is poignant in its beauty of love intermingled with guilt and refreshingly its not “khushi-centric”. As anyone who has read this author before, would agree, she has a wonderful command over situations and characters. And this command has been reflected in this piece to perfection. The build-up to the cliff hanger in Part 18-B, beautifully crafted with Arnavs memories and has achieved the purpose of establishing an impression of “made for each other” kind of love in the readers mind, a necessity, given the storyline. Guilt maybe a driving factor for quite a few characters in this piece, but each is being handled with great sensitivity and care and with differing brushstrokes by the author who has painted an interesting picture of the brittle and fickle world of showbiz. But saved it from being a stark landscape by cleverly placed splashes of uncontrollable emotion, both from the characters as well as the readers. Its well thought out and planned and the control and placement of each situation, each event and each dialogue reflect in the smooth fluidity of its flow. Another feature that sets this piece apart, is the fact that although this is clearly a Sliding Doors piece, yet each character mirrors its onscreen personality and perhaps the reason for this lies in the fact that the characters are so well defined. The sensitivity with which this piece is written, will make it unforgettable for many a reader.

Although she has always given us stories and characters that we have enjoyed immensely but for me this will always be her coming of age piece.
