You are right. Niti moves her hands a lot and she needs to stop overplaying the cute innocent act. BUT I don't blame her totally. If the script is cat poop and you have a lead opposite you who appears disinterested and scenes are copy pasted from an original where the bar has been set high,it's difficult to carve out your niche. There will always be a comparison.


I've mentioned in my original post that she is a directors and writters actor. She can do decently if the character is written and directed well. But the lack of good acting, plus writing, along with lack of direction seems to all work hand in hand to make this as terrible as possible.

True. Parth isn't some amazing actor either but I feel like he has certain learnt nuances (very Manik-like) which he adds to his character which usually looks 'pleasing' (for a lack of a better word). He basically plays different variations of Manik IMO. Lol😆 Which is his "comfort-zone". He 'Manik-ized' his current character too.

Niti however tends to overact. She uses her hands and shakes them way too much. Notice her hands in any scene. She can hardly get past a scene without using them. Annoys me. Even as Nandini, she had her shortcomings. I just think Parth and Niti worked well TOGETHER as they covered each others flaws as a unit. Separately, their flaws are glaring. It also doesn't help when the character is written so choppy. I'm guessing this was a last-minute thing as the previous actress wasn't accepted. And it shows how last-minute this was



@bold: That I agree with😆...which is why I find him an average actor. I don't see him evolving much beyond his stock mannerisms as Manik or maybe that's just Parth himself...whatever the reason, his stock moves don't work in any character other than Manik IMO...the way he says, "Listen...yesss" etc. is so standard Manik, it just sounds funny to hear him say it in other roles.


All actors have certain basic mannerisms they bring to every character they play...and I understand that...but there has to be something beyond that to really make me respect your abilities as an actor. If I had to give an example, there's another young actor called Sumedh Mugdalkar who's currently playing Krishna in Radha Krishna...that guy is amazing with his range in going from super boyish/mischievous kid to gravitas filled God in moments...he doesn't bring stock mannerisms to everything he plays...there is variation from one mode to the other...so I can respect that talent. That is evolution as an actor.


With MaNan, both Parth and Niti got really well written characters with variations so they already got to play a range there...that seems to be all the learned acting they managed to acquire...which seems more suited for youth shows.


To see either of them in GEC shows firstly is really laughable to me😆...they do not suit this medium at all and mainly suit youth shows...chanced upon a scene of Parth mouthing words like KUMKUM and I was like REALLY? 😆...it wasn't even the GOOD kind of different...he looks artificial trying to play a sanskaari good boy or he falls back into his Manik mode...lol so where's the acting evolution?


As for Niti, yes her hyper hand movements are deffo a big minus along with the fact that she is in permanently child-like mode...it worked for Nandu but it doesn't work anywhere else...least of all in a GEC where the amount of well written roles are hardly 0.1%.



Yes, Niti was deffo a rushed replacement and she seems to have chosen this to make inroads into Star Plus as well as Gul's camp😆...remains to be seen if it pays off for her cuz the character has nothing to it.

What a surprise! This post is allowed to continue. Once I criticized just a scene (first night scene) in a related thread and I didn't mention even the characters acting. But that comment was reported and removed immediately. What I think?. Maybe this actress fans do not like even to visit this forum page OR their maturity level may be highly enough to accept the criticism.
I do not come here to spoil this fantastic thread. I just shared my experience . I saw a few episodes only after Niti's entry. I like her acting and her cuteness. Maybe the direction and the scripts are poor for her as someone said in this thread. In my view the crying scenes do not suit her. She is a bubbly actress.

PS. All the things seem black when we see them wearing the black glasses.

Yes i absolutely agree with the above. All the actors are doing fantastic and DIB is the best opportunity for all the new actors to show their best. I think second season is the best show, we all should give the chance with open eyes.

Infact Manju was also doing great we should respect actors. New replacement is also good.

This is in no way a bashing thread. I am only giving an opinion and I think that Niti can improve. Actors can only grow if they see their flaws. They aren't perfect just like us. And as a viewer, I'm just putting my opinion across. I personally think she has a lot to work on before I can consider her decent. Right now, its sub-par and even below average sometimes. There is room for improvement and there is nothing wrong with pointing that out.

If she is good, I will definitely say it.

Lol😆 Ditto on the "Not GEC material" part. They are not. I actually haven't watched Kasautii after the first 3 weeks because it wasn't doing it for me. But until that part, Parth was literally playing a sober version of Manik. But it wasn't clicking with me somehow because he didn't have a co-actor to cover up his flaws as I said before. I mean, I could take his Manik-ness BUT his co-actor is worse than him (sorry to say but the dialogue delivery ) .

Same with Niti. She tries to overplay the innocent bubbly girl and Nakuul isn't doing so great as Shivaansh either so its not like he can cover for her. So all in all, a big mess. LOL. As I said, GEC shows are not for me. I can't watch them for a more than a few weeks.

This was just me concluding my short watch of Ishqbaaz just to see how Niti does as I really root for the two (Parth and Niti) even though they are very sub-par and childish (in real life😆). But boy oh boy, whatever I watched was terrible to say the least. Rickshaw, heart problems, candles in hospital, fake tears, a guy in a bride corpse bride outfit... Everyone trying to outdo each other in overacting... WHAT??!! NOPE. Not my train to catch. lol. That's all. Had to rant because I wasted a significant amount of time trying to find out what actually was going on to be left disappointed. LOL😆 But yeah. I'm done. Y'all enjoy.

Exactly it was my point. There were some people who were appreciating Manju's acting also and then they appreciate new on her place also in the same way. So what to say.

Lol. I don't know who you are pointing at but just to clear things, I was never an Ishqbaaz fan. I only watched it way back when Vrushika was playing Ishaana but that track was ruined and scraped I guess. But I never took part in the forum. After that, I came to see what was happening since Niti entered. But, it isn't too good IMO. So Yeah. Let's leave it at that.
