Jia , I was drawn to the show because of two names. Nawazzuddin Siddique(wonderful actor) and Anurag Kashyap (I love his dark wit). But Nawazzudin Siddique didn't make an appearance the first day , yesterday I did not watch. I am not AB Sr's fan .I can probably be considered a traitor by conventional norms , I do not think AB Sr is freaking awesome , I hold him largely responsible for defining acting as 'over acting'. I haven't watched Sholay , I do not follow cricket and I believe in 'Love thy neighbour'. Wonder if they will revoke my citizenship... anyways.
I felt the show should be more crisp. It was kind of a drag. Or maybe I just missed the quintessential 'Saas'.😆😆

Misti, let me know what you think about the show!😉

Chitra I fell asleep...😳 Well to be fair, yesterday I decided to close my eyes for a bit and rest for half an hour and then watch the show...but when I opened my eyes it was six o' clock in the morning. 😳

And the other thing is that the thought of watching AB is actually stopping me from watching this show. I am really glad to find another person who does not think highly of AB's acting. The only movies of AB that I like are the ones made by Hrishikesh Mukherjee. Usually I tend to avoid his movies or there has to be very strong reason why I will watch it...In recent times I have seen Cheeni Kum because Tabu was in it and I saw Pa for Vidya Balan. I also have another confession to make...The movie Black completely confused me.

Anyway my reasons for thinking of watching this show are Nawazuddin and Anurag Kashyap.

I saw this movie last night, it's called Amu. Have any of you seen it? I had no idea this movies was censored/banned in India. I read about it after I saw the movie. It stars Konkona Sen. This movie is about the 1984 riots. It moved me and left me disturbed at a deeper level. The movie itself was very well done, with the narrative simple and to the point. And it ends with a news story about riots in Godhra. It was so poignant in the sense that nothing has really changed. This movie is available on youtube.

Tina I have seen it and although I bought the DVD so that I can watch the movie, this is one of the rare movies that I hesitate from re-watching. Its not because the movie is not good or that I did not like it...the movie is very good and I also liked it but like you it also left me very disturbed.

Have you watched Firaaq?

Congrats Myra 👏👏... fantastic.. now enjoy & relax before diving into the workplace...

I remember when my master's thesis was cleared.. there was a buzzing in my ears.. started feeling faint.. and could only mumble thank you & shake hands with a trembling hand... then to my embarrassment.. I had to run to the bathroom & started crying right there in the Loo... 😆

Then I attended a final class & a Desi guys asked me what happened & I said.. sailed through.. this idiot then said, oh it is because you are a girl doing EE engineering... I swear.. I was this close to smacking his idiot, sneering face...😡😡😡

Chitra...a hug for you 🤗..I loved it how you said that you are not a conventional girl. I am sure no one will revoke your citizenship if you disagree what entire nation approves of 😊. I read it in morning but was just busy to reply back. I some how remembered this quote from Steve Jobs...not sure how this this will fit in this conversation..I may sound totally off topic..but I love this quote.

"Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them.

About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius.

Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do."

I do not disagree with you and Misti that AB Sr and his OTT... but he had defined the Angry young man on Indian Cinema.I am not much action oriented movie gal though I watch all kind of movies so I watched very few movies of him...like Sholay, Chupke Chupke, Anand, Don.

But you should watch Sholay at least once ..if you don't want to watch it for AB Sr. then may be for other reasons ..good script, Gabbar, Basanti and the dialogue of Dharmendra on watertank 😆.

Just like both of you the main reason I want to try out Yudh is Nawazzuddin and Anurag too. I think I saw Kay kay Menon also in trailer. My hubby recorded it already ..because he likes Anurag Kashyap's movies...we will watch all epis in one go this weekend...but after reading both your reviews, it has dampened my interest. Oh..I am sure I will not miss quintessential 'Saas'.😆😆 in hindi shows...

Have you guys watched Gulal by Anurag Kashyap?
