Why Fanaah did not work ~ 10 reasons - Page 6

I had a lot of expectations from Fanaah but it disappointed me big time. One of the reasons is Chetna.
I just dont' understand what the makers where thinking when they cast her as the lead. She can't act to save her life! It looks like she was taken without any auditions because I'm sure they could have found a much better actress easily. I will watch watch season 2 only if they replace her with a better actress. Like someone said its difficult to imagine a love triangle with her in it.

The only good thing about season 1 was Preet and Anshuman's love story. I wanted more of them

Really??? Dont you know he is the one who created classic shows like Gumrah And Ye hai Aashiqui and plus he was the creative of the best tracks during Kis Des Mai Hai Mera Dil and Kitni Mohabbat hai nd even some other shows. I believe he has great creative mind and he is a trendsetter with Gumrah and YHA. I so hope things work out better for Fanaah in season2..

I dont understand why Rithvik is blamed for not shooting for fanaah and going to capetown.

There was time when he hosted IBD, DID, did jhakak and shoot for PR together. And not to forget his international tours at the same time along with photoshoots and award functions.

And then he did NB (which in itself is very time-consuming) and hosted YHA and did PR (and mind you guys his role was not cut short when he was taking part in NB, he was there in every episode at that time actively).

So the reason that he went to cape town for D2D and didnt shoot for Fanaah is absurd. When he can shoot for YHA cant he shoot for fanaah?

The point is creatives couldnt create and strategy and organize their story.

Instead of wasting whole 2 months in flashbacks they could have showed few episodes in present, few in past or past in present like they showed in TVD but in a large scale.

Just the sickness of two actors is not a reason to pull the show off air. They are hiding that they have no idea what to do next and how to execute next and perhaps havent written the script too. That's why they are giving excuse of actor's ill health to conceal their clueless-ness about next episodes.

as people said that rithvik is not "used" over here , so i would like to differ here.

Regarding using the actors for promotions.. Come on guyz..they were meant to b part of the show.. They still are unless the actors decide to quit. So how on earth was it "using"? I understand ppl who waited to see RD only kept waiting.. Same way even Kundra fans waited to see him in a new avtar-a Vampire which did not happen in the entire season.. Future with kundra is doubtful. So even we are equally disheartened. So far there was nothing in the show that we hadn't seen Karan doing before except that 'Vivaan' was too naive.

And yeah..the promotions kept actors in news. So the actors also benefited from that. It's just us fans here crying to see our favz..🥺

actually i loved d show very much...

i loved d way they saw it...

but it is a bit slow...

Hello guys thanks for loving #MTVFanaah and yes my entry in fanaah will be a few weeks later till then all I need is ur love and support :)

Clearly Rithvik had shot some of his scenes for Fanaah before he left for Dare 2 Dance and had expected that it would be shown few weeks later as the story progresses forward.

I can't comment on the pace of the show because I literally, skipped the entire Dhara-Vivan childhood love story and began watching again from when the two are in college.

However, I liked the pace of the show AFTER the college track began. There were definitely loop holes and inconsistencies with the track in regards to significant details such as Anshuman losing his powers because of Preet, etc..

But this was one Indian supernatural show that was well done. I actually enjoyed it. If PKYEK was so loved despite it having horrendous actors and a cringe worthy storyline, and Fanaah doesn't work out even with the stupendous actors and interesting plot, I have no words for the Indian audience.

PKYEK was absolutely horrible. =/ Fanaah i found a refreshing story.

As for Rithvik, I'm glad they didn't rush his entry in the first season. I'm happy he'll be entering in the second season because they actually took time to develop his role in the story at the end of the first season.
