Yes they are very similar because they were meant to be. Geet was on a smaller platform, even at it's peak it had a lower reach. So the idea of doing them on star plus was to have a chemistry like manmeet on a larger platform
Ofcourse why not they arent out of the world. They are very real characters.Not everyone's perfect. We know men like this and we have all them in our lives and we fall in them. No one is perfect.How is it even possible that is why we give them a flaw to make it closer to life.
Gul: We are particular b/c our couples have sensational chemistry. They have to fit a certain mould. When we thought of Arnav we were thinking of a guy who can speak a lot of english and that is why Arnav says WHAT THE!Barun's really suited being ASR it's very difficult to take somebody who's not too dudish in real life and to show him as a dude on air. Also with MSK and ASR their eyes were very important the needed to have expressive eyes.In girls, simplicity and dialogue delivery was very important. I think both the couples were pretty bang on!
Interviewer: In western shows, the acting schedule is very different from Indian television shows. Do you think this schedule can apply in Indian showsGul:It is sad that people only think about the actors. The whole crew is working if there is a show for 14 hours. One of the reasons for this is that Indian television shows give 5 episodes per week. it is hectic.
Interviewer: Name one quality of the following actors which sets them apart.Gurmeet: His eyes
Drashti: Her smile she has a really sweet smile and is a fantastic actress
Sanaya: She has a twinkle in her eye she has a naughty thing and when she looks at the camera her eyes twinkle and she is so khusi in real life
Barun: *laughs* Barun.I think what is cute about him is that it is really difficult to answer a rapid fire about him b/c if you know him Barun is sooo different from ASR it's so difficult to differentiate that he is this always laughing, chattery guy on the set who is hitting a big gym ball like a soccer ball and playing cricket on the set and then suddenly he transfers into ASR and becomes this intense broody guy it is very difficult to see Barun just in isolation. Barun has a cool personality which he transfers into Arnav that dudish attitude because it's Barun.Barun is playing it
Abhaas: Abhaas is a very good actor, again he is such a kid and he is soo sweet and strange to see him transform into Shyam
IPKKND: What do you want me to say
IPKKND ARHI chemistry rocks that is what we work on.Infact just before your call we were sitting and cracking what is the next romantic part to do it is great fun to conceive,deliver and thens see it on air. The show is exciting the love story and chemistry drives the entire team.
They have wonderful chemistry and its fun. We think oh now Arnav will leave Khushi in the rain and then he comes running.We love the fact that we can control their love story.
Interviewer: The "judai" and "milan" also increase the intensity.
Gul: Yes. We knew intensity was going to be pushed up hence This is why we made the RV version also more intense.
