True that! When I first checked out one of them videos, I thought Sharon might be the typical mean girl character but surprisingly enough she's been anything but the stereotypical mean girl. Sharon's character seems to have the aura of a good central character rather than Kriya.






LOL that's such an interesting irony, haina? I too think Sharon makes for a more interesting central character than Kriya...but inevitably most lead female characters are about the "middle class small town bholi bhaali" girl😆

Sharon's goodness as a person is interesting mainly cuz it's layered...it's interesting cuz it peeks out in the most unexpected of moments from a girl who otherwise lives to play up her diva-ness...

The animated butterflies...rofl


It didnt start off that bad and then 🤣🤣! Such bad choreography and clumsy editing. Direction was hopeless.
I just went back and watched a couple of star parivaar songs. The first one has to be my favorite. The song actually spoke to the audience and the words had some meaning. Plus, I was a super star fan back then. Who wasnt? All ekta's shows: Kyunki, Kahaani, Kasauti, Karam Apna, etc etc. and there was a connection with the characters despite crappy and repetitive story lines.

Sometimes, I feel those shows were better than today's. But then again, I dont watch a lot of shows now so cant compare.

Edit: The girl from yeh rishta is probably the worst dancer in star parivaar at least. The only person that comes close to her is Barun this year!

This video is prolly edited by a 4th Grader whoz read too much of Frida Kahlo. ZOMG Feminist drive MUCH !??! 😲

Waddup with SP couples, dressed in Shaadi ke jode types chamkeelay kapde and showing up randomly in pplz kitchens .. interrupting study sessions between a Grandfather and his grandkid (Daughter ? She looked pretty pissed off to me when the Suraj guy tried to grab her pen 😆) .. and the Bahus .. were they helping the gaao ke ladies grind spices or breed butterflies !? ITNAY halke se kaun pestle (Giant wooden pestle ? 😆) maarta hai ?! 😲 At this rate spices toh agle sattayis janmon mein grind nahin honge ! 😳

So this SPA is all about female and village empowerment. What cheap gimmicks ! 😳 👎🏼

At least pahle ke SPA ke gaane ache hote thei .. and like Mits said .. I used to be an Ekta show fan despite the crappy storyline .. I watched Kayamath .. and Kasauti etc .. and all .. and SPA bhi I followed .. but this one is just LAME .

And the butterflies were just W*F

And that Star-logo rising instead of the Sun .. was SOOO creepy .. I dunno why .. but twas CREEPY 😕 .. like its signaling the advent of some TV-Antichrist or something ! 😲

FAIL.


P.S : Is there an SP show about a female police officer ? De-glam and all .. Okay .. mebbe I am interested.

Exactly Anu. Most lead female characters in desi shows have to be the middle-class girls with OTT idealistic characteristics, so much so that it is impossible to connect to such characters on any level. They end up being stubborn/ OTT headstrong in the beginning and then gradually morph in to super docile damsels once the trip-catch-eyelock routines get in to high gear.😳 How UN-interesting!
@Sharon-- well yeah there have been some of those short eye-locks and those typical routines between SS but the fact that it is shorter and the way Sneha enacts it, makes a big difference. She never turns in to your typical hyperventilating female lead.
@Bold-- True that! She seems realistic because that's how most of the people are in reality. I don't think you would ever find someone like one of them female leads because they're just too idealistic and even dumb at times. I like how in regards to SS, it is Swayam, the male character who is idealistic instead of the female character. You know how most desi shows have the male lead character flawed and the idealistic female character tries to "sudharofy" him. I find it quite interesting how they have managed to avoid that with SS and even though Swayam's character is idealistic, he is not shown to be on any mission to "sudharofy" Sharon.

Gags@ SPA song. Such a bad choreography and such a cheesy OTT anthem or whatever that was.🤣🤣
everyone was so off in their weirdo hands movement.
@Rafi--I agree on that logo coming out of the sun. it was indeed creepy somehow. It's like Star plus is some sort of alien ship that arrives and takes away sanity and replaces it with OTT soaps with brainless damsels and MCP male leads...bleh!😳

@Anu-- I just got done watching today's D3. Liked the bit on the beach, the way she just momentarily halts messing with beach sand and then actually walks up to Swayam and asks him to repeat the last bit. Swayam, being Swayam lol, tries to stick to the script and says it was what Rey said, but Sharon doesn't seem to care about that and reiterates her request to repeat what HE said earlier. Is this really the same Sharon who would just shush this guy in an instant back then?!


BANSHEESARSEONFIRE, that was unexpected yet expected ... Sharon ... I dunno .. Ajeeb paradoxes ki dukaan hai yeh ladki ... And I like the fact that she was in no mood for his BS about Rey having said that. She wanted to hear what HE Swayam had to say. I liked that. I like how Sharon is so realistic here , skipping all the filmy Denial/pretense combo , getting right to the point. And I think its beautiful the way their thing has evolved .. from considering Swayam as a vapid "loser" " despo" whose voice she'd rather tune out ... to the guy she'd pay attention to .. to what he has to say .. watching out for his reactions .. I think its really sweet, that lil bit of whatever she feels for him.


I also liked the rehearsal bits...Sharon's really lost a lot of her confidence. it seemed so off to watch her follow and nod to everything Rey said/asked and not pointing out mistakes. Sneha did an amazing job portraying this mellow, less confident Sharon throughout the episode today. She made us feel empathetic towards her, didn't she?

OH YEAH. Eyes downcast, voice couple notches lower .. . too insecure and doubtful about her own capabilities to find fault with others .. this is a gurl whoz had spirits broken badly .. and I LOVE how Sneha never overdoes it .. just the right nuances ..


@Last SS bit-- i liked that scene too. it was a short moment but it was so inherently SS.

If u mean that convo bit where Swayam tells her its okay to not practice the lift together if shez uncomfortable with it ... I love how Swayam never invades her space, without permission (Cept mebbe that one time in the abandoned corridor .. but I'll let that one pass .. KITNA frustrated thaa tab bechara 😆). Unlike em heroes who force themselves on the gurls .. pin em against some wall .. and then aforementioned female starts to hyperventilate cuz of the proximity and then HAWT walla LOWE happens. EWWW ? Nah .. I like the fact that Swayam abides by the limits of decency ... and gives Sharon all the space she wants. Also that was so Swayam .. the way he encouraged her for the solo. THAT is wat a prospective other-half should be like .. haina ? Always giving u that lil encouraging push towards the right direction, helping u stand up when u fall .. not just someone who gives u the occasional jollies ! 😳

@Precap-- It looks interesting in terms of SS. I like Rey's plan so far. Thank goodness they aren't showing him to be overtly cupid-like and instead having him take a step back and do all the arrow shooting from behind.

A lil filmy laga meko precap .. Blindfold and dil se pukaarna and all ... but I feel SS , as usual will do it nicely without making it look too cheesy 😳

Yeah that was a nice Sharon moment right there in that little bit. She's come a LONG way for sure when it comes to Swayam. Like you stated, earlier she would care less about what Swayam had to say, but look at her now! She actually ONLY listened to what he had to say.😲😆

Word. Sneha does a really good job bringing out the right amount of softness while carefully preserving Sharon's inherent characteristics of a strong individual. Sneha, is by far, the most balanced actress of all and has been consistent throughout.

WORD @ Swayam giving her the space and not overpowering her. Giving space and independence is a major part of any relationship and most desi shows tend to ignore that part entirely in order to carry out their HAWT LOWE scenes with the male lead coercing the female lead who starts to hyperventilate and allows that sort of behavior. They have been avoiding such stuff up until now and it would definitely benefit them if they continue to do so.

LOL yeah it is one of them cliched moments but so far SS have managed to remain sensible during such cliched parts and will probably give it the very SS feel to it. eh.😆

😡 NO ONE can beat Barun a.k.a apna CT...Don't you know about his OSSUM POSSUM "voice modulation"? Similarly in dancing toh he's MICHAEL JACKSON😛


Re: the K-show era...ofcourse it was a million times better...cuz back then we hadn't seen every formula beaten to death...it was still relatively "new"...there were less shows on air so not much choice other than watching the K-stuff😆...and finally and most importantly, most of the actors were excellent...even if Kekta chose newbies for her shows, they could usually act...Now toh SP is beyond lame.

I think Zee has a better set of actors.




@Rafi: LOL well isn't that Diya aur Baati Hum show supposed to be about a chick who wanted to be an IPS officer? And now is sporting a 10 foot ghoonghat and bearing the taunts of her evil saas? lol


There's a show on Zee about a girl who wants to be a civil officer in the Bihar Govt. Administration services or something...I'm watching that show these days...I like the acting of the female lead.

Not IPS officer .. POLICE , proper khaki uniform mein POLICE ... ? Oh wait .. she was part of the song .. not an actual show on SP ! 😆 Dekhlo .. ITNA behuda thaa inka editing ke pata bhi naa chale ke kaun SP show ka hai .. aur kaun gaaon waale ! 😆 BTW lady Police reminds me of Shweta Kawatra's character in Phulwa before the leap .. I LOVED that character .. how she was a badass cop, without compromising on her her femininity.
