Is what separates the wheat from the chaff
So many such instances in EDKV...
But this post is dedicated to acknowledge something different
Have been meaning to mention it since quite some time
Couldn't wait any longer
Just had to do it
After watching the latest EDKV promo, on air!
So, this one friends, is yet another example of how EDKV is truly "hatke"
Am talking the VO here
The absolutely BRILLIANT Voice Over used for the EDKV promos!!
👏👏👏
What an amazingly "emotive" voice
Understands the ShraMan dynamic like the back of his hands
And the way he has infused life into the lines of the latest promo
Had gooseflesh when I heard it the first time!
And am still recuperating!😉😆
PHENOMENAL LINES
And
EPIC RENDITION
👏👏👏
The point that I am trying to make through this post is slightly larger, my friends...
The wider context that I am referring to
Is the "culture" that EDKV is beginning to get associated with...
A culture of EXCELLENCE!!
I mean when a promo can manage to create such an indelible impact
Is EDKV on its path to creating HISTORY??!!
Can we expect from START to FINISH
A set of DIFFERENTIATED Talent coming together
With an UNWAVERING commitment
To deliver EXCELLENCE!
This one's a HEARTFELT appeal
To the makers
To the entire cast and crew of EDKV
You guys have set a new BENCHMARK
Of NEW WAVE Indian Television
Please do not sway for anything
The beaten path is not for those
Who wish to leave behind
A LEGACY of sorts!!
Am taking the liberty of making this post on behalf of all the EDKV IF forum friends...
Cheers!
DocD
PS: Please share your thoughts; makes mine that much more meaningful...as always!😊

totally agree with you. u know to be frank i still cant believe its happening. like in indian telly a show like this is really unbelievable and its rare to see these kind of shows. were they focus more on content. and really the CVS 👏
i dont know how to praise them but the way they look after every detail and leave no point or plot or scene unfinished. is MINDBLOWING
they even handle the cliche scenes so differently. like adding tadka to daal.
i love the fact they are still now very much being realistic.
i know some members still dont like suman
but u know i love both shravan and suman individually as well as together as shraman
i dont know but yea i can feel suman's character. maybe because she is more of introvert now. supressing her feelings. but something really makes me love her character but ofcourse the older one.
and shravan I LOVE HIM.
and also the other characters for example ramnath is actually one of my fav characters. i know somewhere he is grey shaded but the love he has for family and respect nanaji so much. he is just 👏
my fav dad character till now dr dayal thakur (ek haseena thi)
and i can see ramnath getting into my fav list
i ll stop it here as i wont stop my rant 😆
BUT yea this promo i guess is my fav till now. after the MARD promo😆

WORD to everything you said, Doc.
The attention to detail is so so commendable in this show. And the best thing like I've said time & time again, is that they don't brag about it at all. Its just there for you to notice...and these little things in each scene just elevate the show to another level. They show, rather than tell.
Even the promos are so well thought out (something that is seriously rare) with such amazing lines spoken in the voiceover.

I can proudly say I am a fan of EDKV. I am so so glad, that after so long, Indian TV; specifically Sony & the PH have gotten it right. They've truly set the benchmark for other Indian shows, which are just getting crappier with each passing day.

HATS OFF TO THE ENTIRE TEAM❤️

There isn't enough for me to say on this topic. And like Sammy said, I love how they never make a big tamasha of the fact that they've indulged in such subtleties. It's there for you to notice and interpret for yourself.
Man I can go on an on about the things I love about this show,

Do I start with the kind of effort the makers put in? (Just one of the COUNTLESS examples: Shravan's graduation gown in a picture the screen glanced over for a mere 5-10 seconds resembling the Oxford Law School graduation gown)

The fact that everything is part of a larger story, there are no "uncessary/filler" scenes? Even the "comedy" ones.
-Nanu making the Maami/Maasi clean the house: thematically pre-developing the house track.
-The whole goonda fiasco not just a random scene thrown in for good measure, but to lead the track forward as Shravan would find Suman's wallet there, bring the money home, find out about the 3 lakhs. It wasn't "just there."

The REALISM in the writing, storyline, performances? Even the annoying MAMI is realistic, you see her and you're like I've SO MET a bitchy aunty like that. They could've turned her into Cinderella's OTT stepmom, but her two-facedness, selfish behavior, make her a lot more realistic. Jab faida dikhta hai, toh toot padti hai, as many people do.

The lack of loopholes and WHOLE UNABASHED use of logic?Which is a delight btw.

The writer's ability to spin cliche tracks in a completely new direction? (The goonda track, the engagement/Urvashi thing)

Or do I applaud the characterizations/performances? There is so much I can say here, I'll spare you the essay, but just...the fact that there is really no clear cut right and wrong, and that despite there not being a clear cut right/wrong box to compartmentalize characters. Yes Shravan wanted revenge, but he did not want anything beyond that one night, his actions after that night force us to look beyond that one night. And the backstories of the characters. The dynamics between them all, which brings me to:

A solid supporting cast. Like hats off to the casting and the writing, the relationships/dynamics between these characters are just so rich and sell the show convincingly even when the leads aren't there.

And of course the beautiful, poignant, realistically heartbreaking, and relatable story of Shravan & Suman. And of course, the way Namik & Nikita breathe life into these complex characters without a single false note is commendable.


And this is just the tip of the iceberg, lovely post D! And sorry for the essay, could not control my fangirl feels! ❤️ I don't always have the time or energy to respond this well, but this topic is one very close to me. EDKV will be remembered, it's setting the standards higher with each passing episode. I am truly, genuinely, so PROUD to be an EDKV fan.

So true, this show truly has created a new benchmark.👏

In terms of just writing, direction and overall execution of the show, this is hands down the best romantic serial that I have watched in years on an Indian channel.

Most romantic shows try to rely on the chemistry between the leads and some cliched situations to develop the love story (I have personally loved and hated some of them). But surprise surprise, the makers of EDKV are actually relying on the story and the (relatable) characters to do that.

Even the story on paper sounds so simple and unoriginal but the talented writers have elevated this 'simple and unoriginal' story into something highly addictive and of quality.
