QUESTIONS BY RAKSHA
ANSWERED BY ME
1.How exactly did you get the idea of creating an FC for Harshad..
Well we were active on the LRL forums when the show startedโฆWe had no idea about these Fan Club'sโฆOne day Yoj made a new FC of Harsh in August 2007 and posted the link on the LRL forumsโฆWhen we visited the FCโฆThe moderators closed it saying that Harshad FC already existedโฆWe got the link of the FC that was made in 2006 where members had just come and said hi but never discussed anythingโฆSo that FC was inactive for 1 yearโฆWe activated it..But still didn't get many members thereโฆThe first page was very plain and we could not also edit it..We felt restricted thereโฆso we requested the moderators to close that FC when it was on page 60 or so , and allow us to make a new oneโฆSo that was itโฆwe took permission from the person who had made the first FCโฆAnd then we were finally allowed to open one during August 2007..
2. What was Harshad's role during the first FC...does he know about its existence???
Ya Harshad knows about the existence of his FC's since day oneโฆI mean since the day I started itโฆWe did tell him and he was very eager to see itโฆHe always thought that no body liked him, he has no fans and no one appreciates his work in LRLโฆ.We told him what the truth was and how we were looking forward to get in touch with him atleast onceโฆThe other LRL stars used to interact a lot via sms's and emails and messages on the forumsโฆBut Harsh never didโฆHe once gave out his email id on the Indiatimes chat but never checked it cause he thought that no one wud mail him..โฆSo that id expireโฆ.
His role in the first FC was that he read each and every page of that FC, leaving us highly embarrassedโฆ.
3.What was the happiest moment so far ( we know more to come though)
Hmm happiest moment for the FC??? If yes, then every moment has been happyโฆCause he has never missed a single FCโฆThe best part is that he reads every line on the first page and then never forgets to comment tooโฆYa one of the best moment can also be the time where he gave a written message twice for the FCโฆ
4.What was the lowest???
When the FC was inactive during January-March in the beginning of this yearโฆI dunno why but all the members just leftโฆYoj too had quit for some timeโฆI thought that , that was the end of itโฆWe didn't know what to talk..what to do..since we hardly had any membersโฆ.Harsh had quit LRL then and was going through a lean patch professionally tooโฆI guess it took us more than 2 months to finish a FC at that time..
5.What's the role of Harshad in the current FCs??
His role is to visit it frequently..sometimes 2-3 timesโฆremember the number of pages we had finished last and the theme and then comment..
6. Can you please give an insight into the old members of the FC, who have been its support system ever since Harshad's Ali days..?
As u knowโฆ.Yoj..SwatiโฆVaishu were always thereโฆ
We then had 2 guys Mannu and NishantโฆMannu has quit IF, Nishant no longer visits the FC I guessโฆMaybe he is busy with his studiesโฆMannu used to upload videos and pictures for usโฆNishant's work was to basically pull our legs and Harshad's tooโฆ
We had 2 Arjun Bijlani fans, Dia and Raniโฆwho used to visit our FC and just liked being hereโฆWe never had ardent fans of Harsh on our FC actually apart from we fourโฆ
Ya we had Gauri who was a fan too..โฆ.Gauri was like one of the biggest fan of Ali /Harsh, but never very active hereโฆโฆAnu was there too but she again was never an active memberโฆOthers like I said used to come here and post, they liked Ali but were not his biggest of fansโฆ
Kiran DiโฆSubhaโฆKanakโฆDia..AshiโฆRakshitaโฆSarika
And how can I forget Vanduโฆwho is always there for me whenever I need herโฆ
6. Can you please give an insight into the current active members ??
Aww the new membersโฆwhat do I sayโฆI would like to say that the FC has never witnessed such a phase beforeโฆHad it not been for the new membersโฆthis FC would have been historyโฆAfterall what can 2 members do with a FC..โฆ
Sabse pehle a hugeee hug to Sarah..Mehndi..Zuman who came to our FC as new members when Prem hit the screenโฆand they really gave a boost to our FCโฆI mean had it not been for themโฆThe FC would have been shut downโฆSeriously thanks to them for sticking around with us since March 2008..It was all because of them that we won 2 major contests too..
Then a hugee hug to all our new and active membersโฆ.(If I can add sane and mature too)โฆ.Wasima, Priya, Bhavna, Chotu Priya, Raksha, Payal, Zainab, Misty, Sidra, Nandini, Atop, Yasmin, Neha, Alina , Reva, Mona, Rohini, Avneet, Sara, Nina, Now Amy and I hope I didn't miss any namesโฆ
Every member here has contributed in some way or the otherโฆBe it posting pictures videosโฆsiggiesโฆavi'sโฆanalysisโฆ
We have such talented members on board
NandiniโฆU just have to ask her for a videoโฆShe never says ''no''โฆ.Makes sure that we see every video on air on HarshโฆI guess if I have all the videos of Harsh in SBS, SPA โฆits all because of NansโฆAnd ya the DL links of the episodesโฆI know some people who dont even read ur PM's when we make requestsโฆBut Nandini is someone who has always been there for usโฆ.A hug to u Nans
SarahโฆOur most cutest memberโฆTakes the pain to post amazing pictures of Harshad for us from the episodesโฆ.And how can I forget her amazing VM'sโฆ.I can never forget the ones she made during Harshad's b'dayโฆHe too loveddd themโฆ.And I have also not come across such a sincere and an ardent fan of Harsh like SarahโฆThe things she does for him is unbeleivable and each time she surprises me with her immense love and support for HarshโฆSarah I loveee uโฆ
Mehndiโฆ.What do I say about this small wonder we haveโฆJust 16 and a store house of talentโฆI think I have 200 siggies and avi's all made by Mehndiโฆand our last 15-16 FC's have been having siggies made by her all the timeโฆMehndi I know I cant say thanks but u deserve a hugโฆ.Ya your videos avi's too deserve a special mentionโฆAnd Mehndi too is someone who will neve say a NOโฆJust request anything and she comes up with a creation within a few hoursโฆYou are missed MehndiโฆBut then studies come first..
Saraโฆ.My bestest buddy who is the most sensible person out hereโฆWill not just say anything just for the sake of sayingโฆShe is very honest and will downright say if she does not like anythingโฆThough I too have not interacted with u much personallyโฆI find a friend in you with whom I could discuss so muchโฆAnd all our discussion we had on the FC initially was outstanding and fun..Right from the ''Prem planets'' to the ''Prem uncle'' discussions, and teasing MehndiโฆI cant tell u how much I miss uโฆ.Please come back soonโฆ
SidraโฆI know we didn't quite instantly gel with each other when u came into this FC initiallyโฆI guess there was some kind of reservationโฆ.I dunno what the reason wasโฆMaybe we old members knew each other and were discussing stuff and u felt left outโฆ.But chalo u again came here as an active memberโฆ.U became comfortable here and now I guess the FC is dull without uโฆOnly u can make the weirdest of observations and make us just sit and thinkโฆHahahahaโฆthanks for spreading so much cheer and joy here..
Zainab..Aww did I tell how much I love uโฆI didn't even know u personally when I met u for the first time on the forumsโฆand the way u showered love on me and Yoj was sooo overwhelmingโฆI remember telling someone that you are the most sober and the sweetest person I have ever metโฆThere was this instant connection and I am so glad to have u hereโฆAs everyone saysโฆYou are the sweetest person I have met and also the best human beingโฆ Love u..

And a thanks and hug to all our other members who have been so vital for the functioning of our FCโฆ.Had it not been for u guys.. The FC wud not have been the sameโฆ
I am sooo SORRY if I missed any memberโฆ
7.What was the silliest discussion that happened??
Gosh that's toughโฆCause we always had so many silly discussionsโฆ.I guess when Swati was around last yearโฆshe used to post such hilarious messages and captions naโฆThat one couldn't help but ROFLโฆAnd the best or the worst part was that Harsh read itโฆI will post some here..U guys will go insaneโฆHehehehehโฆThat's how Harsh knows about Swati and her humour
8.Any special mention of a particular event which brought the members more closer to each other??
When Harsh quit ADโฆ.I guess u did read Zainab's message as to how overwhelming support he got on the forumsโฆOn the FC tooโฆthough the messages were few...The FC was brimming with support for himโฆThen when we went through a lean phaseโฆwe never lost faith in himโฆAnd all those terrible articles published against him during that timeโฆ
And how can I forget this recent article by Lalwani which brought us closer to such a level that now I guess these journalists will think twice before saying anythingโฆShows the power of fans..
9.Anything embarrassing that you wished Harshad didn't see or read about??
ManyyyโฆThe captions we had on his pictures (Though he saw that many times)โฆThe bekhandes discssuions members have these daysโฆon the anda scene and the bizarre observations made and the pictures posted (Read:-The ''egg'' scene..''Water'' scene) and many moreโฆSomething which just makes me hide my face to save myself from embarrasment..
10. What was the most trying moment???
To make a new FC each timeโฆselect a theme and live up to the expectations of everyone here..Though I thoroughly enjoy what I doโฆSo its not actually a trying momentโฆBut sometimes I get nervous when I don't have anything in mind
And ya last year it was to keep the FC alive when no one was around..
11. What was the most hillarious moment??
There have been many hilarious momentsโฆOnce we had a ''caption contest'' and we could not help but just laugh and laughโฆSome captions were too funnyโฆHahahaโฆAnd then when the entire ''night gang'' or the ''mad gang'' meetsโฆThe FC turns into a laughter zone where things really go out of handโฆI still remember that day when Payal just ran away from here and I had to go and hide my faceโฆHahaha
12. Which is the fastest FC??
We finished one FC in 4 days flatโฆ.Thanks to Sarah for thatโฆHeheheheโฆSorry don't exactly remember the FC numberโฆIt was after Prem hit the screen and u guys weren't hereโฆMaybe 12th or 13thโฆNot very sureโฆWe had finished one FC in 5 days tooโฆAgain thanks to Sarah for that.
And how can I forget FC # 26, IF had a new format thenโฆ1500 posts per FC and we finished that in 4 days which was a super recordโฆI still maintain that, that was one of our bestest Fan Club'sโฆIt was a laughter riot..
13. Did Harshad participate in any discussion ever??
No neverโฆHe has just been a silent spectator cause he likes it that wayโฆYa but he did read messages where he saw his fans mentioning about the roles they wud like to see him inโฆ
14.Are the members asking for it??
Hmm didn't get any requests as suchโฆBut I guess you guys do want to see him hereโฆ.
15. What kind of discussions usually happen there??
Sometimes ''bekhande''โฆsometimes hilariousโฆsometimes we are too seriousโฆand write things which make lots of senseโฆwe don't like one linersโฆwe don't like Hi's and Bye'sโฆand don't spam the placeโฆ.Sometimes if the girls go beserk then its tough to handle themโฆsometimes they get so serious that we need to pep them upโฆBut I can proudly say that Harsh FC is the only place where actually people discuss things rather than finding ways of filling the pagesโฆwith a Don around how is that possibleโฆHahahahaโฆ
16.One last question, what was the state of the FC on the day the now popularly known to be Ande episode was telecast???I mean, how maturedly the members handled the scene???Did you wish Harshad was there reading the discussion??Please feel free to elaborate on this...
One word....''BIZZARE'' I was actually stunned to see the kinds of thought that can cross in the minds of some members here
Some sane members ran away from the FC there and then..
NO WAYS....I wud never want Harsh to ever read those messages...and I know he wont...They are already lost
