Something old and something new

something old and something new, something borrowed and something blue...

What remained the same : the same angst ridden Raizada, the rabba ve, the emotional music when he saves the dog, the same "welcome to hell" dialogue, the little boy orphan who lost his parents unexpectedly, the seething simmering anger

And of course the Barun magic ... setting the screen on fire

Something new - Chandni - I must say she's not bad, whether she will rise up to Raizada and be a match for him - let's wait and see, while she did the emotional parts well, the scene with the 7up bottle - was a misfire and a misfit

Something borrowed - Wahi hackneyed characters - the vamp, and her asinine side kick, the rani sahiba etc - let's hope the characters are fleshed out well and are not mere caricatures...

Something blue - the whole episode was loud, over grandiose, garish - not the genteel grace of IPK 1 - this was cardboard and kitsch - let's hope Gul knows where she's going with this and once the pieces fall in place, we will see a more refined show, that is worthy of its predecessor !

Today's episode - apart from Barun setting the screen on fire, there's not much that rises above the average, so let me give it a 6/10.

I am sure things will shape up after the first week, initially most stories seem haphazard

True, Barun has lost none of his screen power and magic, and let's hope others match up to his level.

Is that really you Arshics!!!!! OMG. I'm sooo happy to see you. 🤗 i still remember your posts yaar. I missed you DAMMIT.

as for the beginning of IPK3, my expectation was next to nothing, also with Gul's current shows, this is how i expected this show would be. I'm bas happy to get Barun Sobti back on my tv with the guarantee that I will see him daily. Bas aur kuch nahi chahiye mujhe, at least for now.

There is a sense of trying too hard in the episodes. Everything was just a haphazard mess. They really need to up their editing game and sound direction if they are even to come close to their predecessor.

Hi Nishu, so great to see you too, in fact the two things that will initially be enough to keep us going will be Barun and meeting all the old friends - reconnecting and having fun on the forum !
