the real villain of industry
i see ppl all the time debating between yas, harper, eric etc. abt who’s the worst. and yes they all are complex and suck ass in their own ways, but rishi is literally a villain. he cheats on his wife on his wedding day. he’s misogynistic and abusive at work. he cheats on his wife after his wedding constantly, including with ppl at work. he scams his friends. he watches porn while holding his child. he bankrupts his family. he takes his wife’s savings to pay off his debt then takes out yet even more debt to fund his addiction. and the finale - he gets his wife LITERALLY KILLED.
like yes, everyone is stabbing each other in the back and making shitty decisions and are exploiting everyone, but in terms of real life actual horrendous things a person can do rish def takes the cake (phrasing that’s super appropriate if you’ve seen the last ep). i was extremely happy to see him get his comeuppance in the last episode. he’s given almost nothing redeeming to make him more sympathetic, complex, or just not a pure villain. and this doesn’t mean i hate his character, i actually like having a pure villain. but to me he’s def less of a ”complex” character and more of just a shit.
