Ayesha is top notch with her expressions.. But she still has to work on lot of things like stability during dialogues delivery.. I'm seeing slowly she is picking up those smallest nuances..

Neil is hailed for his nuances but I can actually see nuances in Ayesha's performance. Closing eyes after every dialogue or Pakhi didi's hand on mouth expression cannot be called a nuance.

Colors top show ML, even Sudhanshu Ji are convincing to the extent that you have to remember the characters deeds before sympathising them in their whitewash tracks. Also, when they are evil they are hated even more for their portrayal.

Sudhanshu never can be compared with Neil.. He is convincing irrespective of his character graph.. We are all inconsistent so that reason is lame for an excuse..

However I'm really impressed with colors top ML.. Less experienced than Neil yet fabulous on screen..

Neil either should take a good holiday or quit Ghum...

Aishwarya wasn't cringy as Pakhi in the initial episodes when she was positive. The character is annoying which affects even more her acting.

Shafaq is not impressive but shes not unbearable as an actor even though her character is rubbish so everyone does not want her onscreen. I concur with the posts that give examples of actors who are playing actual negative/grey shades like V and Kavvya of top show. Their performance is so convincing that you have to stop and remind yourself of their past actions. Plus they are made more well rounded and not one-note.

Pp as a character is crap but the actor has had a year to develop her own backstory and tbh she has got many kind of scenes- family ke saath, Sai ke saath, Sam ke saath, khud ke parents ke saath, Virat ke saath- all giving her enough scope to perform and show layers. But she has never been watchable in any of these scenes. The only ones I watch are Sai-PP scenes because Sai is fire in those.. So she is utterly terrible irrespective of the character being good. If she was given Sai or Karishmas character she would have been as terrible as she is now.

Her "best days" as an actor also have only been utterly subpar.

So while makers, director have much blame to take for the lackluster performances , but pp actor is consistently unbearable and unwatchable.

Intially ayesha has highly got support from actors playing jagthap and kamal joshi....later she herself along with others improved her performance....and finally both sai and she become popular....the girl whose even single shot was not approved by team on first day became the face of the channel...no one from the team would have thought that she will be counted among top actors within a year...aishwarya has more potential to play a negative character rather than postive or grey shaded....Nb can nicely do flirting and action scenes...he can also do negative character brillantly...I found him better in performing emotional scenes than some popular actors...his major drawback is while portraying anger of virat he goes to rage mode ...I would like to see ayesha as playing negative character if possible in ghum itself as twin sister of sai

I know I should be the last person for giving inputs since I have not really watched the show... Just some clips.

But as an actor you don't let your connectivity issue get in a way for you to perform because if that happens then your character can't be iconic...

Because let's agree that in no way the actors who performs those toxic ML resonate with the actions. For example, Sudhanshu Pandey. His character as Vanraj is inconsistent... Kabhi white kabhi black and kabhi grey but when he is on screen, he takes your attention.

And neither does any actress playing the sacrificial FL who bores the brunt of every other person misdeed will be resonating with the character but still they are at the top of their acting game.

As an actor, you need to take the poison pill so that the show move forward (that does not happen here tho ) but if you continued to give bitter and those worst expression tab kya hi faayda... Apne character ki nuances toh udda di gyi

Because in the initial episodes ,there was nothing to perform.All she had to so was smile,look pretty and flirt With ML.

She was even manageable till the marriage track with Samrat but after that ,when she actually had to show a lot of emotions (that is after her marriage and virat marriage with Sai)She couldn't do the job.Because from there Pakhi's character build up starts like love ,hate , guilt, jealous etc but she couldn't do it ,instead she became more cringy and couldn't connect to her.Instead she came out lusty, disgusting woman.

Hence now the story writers have changed her to a negative character,to build up her character.Hope this time it works.

I mean look at last week's episode when sai was confronting and asking about Shruti in front of everybody,I couldn't understand her expressions.What the hell was that ,neither happy,sad,jealous etc...in fact I could figure out Sneha's expressions better.

See that's why I am saying ,she is not capable of playing this character.....

In a recent interview of the actors from the colors show, they were asked how do they come to terms/justify something on screen that they might not necessarily agree/identify with as a person? The answer - that's why it's called acting. An actors job is to take whatever is given to them and to portray it as convincingly as possible even if they personally might not agree with it.

While the characterization, direction, writing, editing, etc is all abysmal in this show, we can't necessarily blame all of that for poor acting as well.

Take Sonali, Karishma, Ninad or even Bhavani kaku for instance, they have pretty one-dimensional characters, their lines are repetitions of what has been said from day one, yet one cannot deny that they are good actors.

Pakhi's character actually had a lot of potential, AS was average at best in the beginning, but she was never able to capture the layered intensity (anger, betrayal, hurt, jealousy, etc) that was there in the writing. In fact, her acting let down the writing in those early days and it has only been downhill since.

Shruthi's character as it's being shown now, is absolutely one-dimensional, so it's hard to even expect anything more from the actor. It will be interesting to see what happens to her character post-labor, etc... if they will continue showing her as this helpless damsel in distress that needs to depend on Virat for everything or the Shruthi that had no problem being pregnant in the jungle with her husband and seemingly managed a whole bunch of criminals.

Neil is a good actor, but yes, he has had his moments as has been pointed out. If the problem is that he as a person can't connect with the character, then he needs to work on making it convincing - that's his job.

So, yes, while on one hand character's can affect actors, it works the other way too... actors can bring down characters as well.
