Fine.. the cvs want to introduce whatever tracks they deem fit... logic goes to hell, loopholes in the story are never closed, characterization oscillates, etc, etc.. FINE: your baby CVs, write it the way you want to and yes if we want to see what you dish out, it is on our own heads
BUT
Is there no one to see/ensure that actors at least look like the characters they are supposed to portray. Whatever happened to quality control. Is it limited to fairy lights around the sets or producing ladoo dabbas? What happened to making sure your actors LOOK good on screen? Ideally they should be doing this themselves but if they are reluctant for whatever reason, guide them bhai, behen, Gul, director or whoever. Some part of our enjoyment is also linked to seeing them look good and in tune with the character.
Aakash: Suddenly Aakash has a beard... he used to be the clean/sweet guy who even wore jackets all the time in the first few episodes. What happened? Everyone in this serial has decided to support a stubble or what.. will it be NK next?
Shyam: same stubble, long hair... Grrr
ASR: I don't even want to go there. This character used to look suave... now he looks dirty... all the time. He wears the same bloody brown shirt 24/7. His stubble on most days is a beard, his shoes never change, his hair are awry all the time.
GOSH what happened... can't you guys get your actors to look like their characters and not like themselves.. don't care if your actor hates getting a haircut... but this character's look demands it... its part of his job. Manage his stubble. It changes from scene 1 to scene 2 and it looks really bad that in the middle of a dialogue he has mild stubble which alternates with a heavy one. Please hire a continuity assistant.
Khushi: Oh bhagwan... why is she wearing these monstrous tents aka anarkalis...? Why this uniform? Before marriage, short kurta, after marriage anarkalis? Can she mix her wardrobe please? And can she tie her hair once in a while... Why cant she be given a slightly different hair style...Mix it up: open hair, ponytail, plait. And please do something about her clothes.
I feel that it is important to keep this aspect in mind too and no one, I repeat no one in this serial is bother about the overall finished product it seems.
Please I am not bashing the actors or anything... but seriously this just shows a lack of dedication. This is "Kuch Bhi Chalta Hai" attitude.
