Sushpective:On Gul Khan's&Nissar's(p7) interviews! - Page 2

Sush, man I was sooo hoping someone would post-mortum that article ... it was just begging for it almost :) glad you started the ball rolling.

ASR & Anji the Raizada funions! So ASR's character has had some of his layers peeled back ( aah I get it now! Khushi had been shedding onion tears !) ... but I think we have yet to see the core of Anji ... the subtlety with which they've set up her character is sheer brilliance ... or atleast will be if they turn her grey. I really hope they explore this further ...
I don't mind the bro / sis quotient as long as it is their separate tracks in it's majority with some crossovers as necessary ie Anji own journey to find love and heal the wounds of the past...the whole didi ki saut crap storyline I hope is dropped like the proverbial hot potato...get Shyam booted out and start Anji's journey.

Ok now the whole opposites attract ... sigh ... only if the differences are complementary and only IF there is atleast one shared belief ... here I'm glad the execution went beyond Gul's half-baked idea ... ArHi have both lost their parents, they both have a strong family bond ... the whole being drawn to each other inexplicably is just tweenie wet dreams! Can't believe a grown woman would come up with such nonsense...pfffttt

I definitely agree on Shyam's two dimensionality. The original premise of the cassonova sounds fine but here in execution this failed, the result being a lascivious twitching murderous cartoon doing impotent rounds around khushi. I think the production team need to reel in the OTT delivery and make Shyam sly and cunning again ... I mean come on the villain ought to garner a response of distaste not smirks from the viewers.

Oh my what a long post for a couch critic ;)

i too was upset about the DIDI KI SAUT thing!!
it sounds awful ...just hope that the storyline is wont turn out exactly like the previous intended title

After reading about the 'saut' title I was gagging for a full hour 😕 I mean seriously?

I disagree with you here sush,about Shyam. I think the character is absolutely fascinating. There is so much scope to the character if portrayed well. I think Abhaas is doing a fabulous job ,until the twitching started.

There are many men who do lust over a girl even if they are married. Its quiet common. But what makes his character interesting is that he is a street smart guy who married well. He wanted a good lifestyle through marriage. He is not a casanova ,who falls for every other girl. He fell for a simple girl after he got married. Till now his character is similar to SRK in Kabhi Alvida na kehna.

But what is different about him is that he loves his image. Of a good person, of a good son in law..He doesn't want his image to be tarnished. He wanted 2 separate lives with 2 wives. But it was beyond his control and finally Guptas came to know about him. He is a psychopath now.. He wants to possess Khushi even though he knows she doesn't care for him. He made plans to kill his wife. The news that he is becoming a father has no effect on him. He just wants Khushi.. Now he is more like SRK in Darr.

I think the negative character is a pretty good one with lot of scope about his past too.. N AM is fabulous. Hope he continues in some way in this show.

Evening ladies. Great comments by all.
@Premparbat - I too was very surprised that Gul failed to mention the leads in her article. To me they are the reason the show holds up big time. There was a link posted in the forum about an article from Hindustan times, reviewing soaps across channels and this is what they had to say about IPK which says the best.

This couple has such crackling chemistry, the TV screen could combust. In a landscape littered with effete men and meek women, Arnav and Khushi stand out. He is rich, powerful, cruel, heartless (a simmering Barun Sobti).She is poor, self-respecting, soft-hearted, spirited (a very pretty Sanaya Irani). They claim to hate each other but are secretly in love...

I hope Friday's track will continue next week. I doubt whether Khushi will tie in Shyam to Arnav's hurt on Monday but she will not let go of the fact that she has hurt him. Hopefully the CV's will move this track intelligently and stay away for mindless rona dhona.

Nice post...thanks for bringing it up. I see pretty much everyone reacted the same way about "Di the saut"?!?! I heard about Vaidhedi being the original tittle, but not this. I read it and I was like are you kidding me with that tittle??

Great analysis!!

Excellent points!!! I remember talking to a Bostonion on IF about IPKKND who would visit the forum sometimes...but never caught on to it...saying that we see the depth in IPKKND...because we are projecting ourselves into it...according to her the plot really is not brilliant at all...Diya...remember her? Her name skips me...

Sometimes I think she may have been right ...a least go some extent...and when the complexity if e characters does not love up to our imaginations we feel quite dsiappointed...

Shyam...for one has been an extremely craz character...while lusting for a girl part is real...his staying in Madhumatis house ...plan o marry. KHushi...and still thinking about marrying her...there is no logic...no complexity...to me is downright stupid...He even planned to kill Anj...and tha track was beyond any intelligence...I mean seriously? He married Znj for money ...right? So he should have wanted to just find a girl he can keep relationship with...not marry...and KHushi was getting too complicated ...he would look for another girl...because e is governed by his libido...Is that too logical for a soap? most times he just sits there like a sitting duck and gets lucky...because for soe reason DM has always been helping him save his ass...


In a any case...I think the story works because of difference in their ideologies...their personalities and their chemistry...everything else is interjected to create situations to move that forward... Hope they don't get caught up in their own imagination...tha IPKKND saut plot is the one that is THE story...
