Nice post!
I will be honest; this is my first show of Ronit and I fell in love with his acting instantly. He is damn good and acts with so much maturity and dignity. The second best thing is Pallavi. She is doing a wonderful job too and their chemistry is ek dum right! The makers got themselves a brownie point there!
Lekin lekin lekin...even the biggest shows with the best star casts can have big loopholes and kinda illogical details in their stories. And believe it or not, but IKNMP is not very different...
The concept is indeed good and new. It is different and has a mature story line. Kaash CVs bhi iss story ko maturely handle karte...
I completely agree with your points of Ragini's fake marriage with Dr. Aman and their friendship and also the last one about the youngster's love triangle.
Indeed no need to show the one sided love story of Dr. Aman, yes a good solid friendship would have been good enough. A true support system is also something a man can give to a woman and vice versa. But at the end of the day, this is a Hindi tv show aur uppar se an Ekta show, iss liye we will have to cope it.
Is it really necessary to show a love triangle among those three? Maybe in the future, but definitely not now! There are so many other issues that need to be solved. So many other things that they need to focus on instead of showing how Pam supports her so called beta Ranbir in snatching away Shilpa from Aarav. Yes, I do understand that in all these years Pam has had some influence on the kids and Ranbir is the 'lucky' one who has adapted that ill mind, but there are so many other ways to show that Ranbir is not fond of his mother.
The most important and biggest one: Neil's character. Thank you for pointing this out. It is somehow my biggest 'concern' regarding this show. Ragini's character is quite clear, Pam's character is even more than clear, Dr. Aman the confused one, RK/Karan/Dimpy and the rest also very clear, but the million dollar question is: Who is Neil? What is his character?
I started to ask myself these questions since last after watching the sangeet episode. I have mentioned this before in some other posts as well and I keep saying it; in my eyes, Neil needs to stand up and change his attitude towards his lovely sister Pam. He has raised his kids with other principles than Ragini has, fine. He loves them all, cool. He respects is mother-in-law and can do anything for Nani, very good. He stands up for Ragini, supports her and helps here where needed, again way to go! But where is Neil, the no-nonsense man, whenever Pam starts with her bakwas? Where was he when someone else decided to change his life for him?
In short, I just want to see a strong male lead who truly matches the character inside out. Neil has definitely the potential the be the first no-nonsense male lead character on TV (there must have been a few, but I have never seen one till now). Initially, they all start with this great persona thing but eventually they all become like puppets in the hands of the antagonist, which is sad...
Also, to make the concept and story line more crispy the CVs really need to pay more attention to the little things in the story. In their eyes it might not be much of a big deal, but as a viewer we see a lot, we accept a lot (for the sake of drama) but that does not mean we buy anything they show us. It is the little things that make the most sense because those will only add to the bigger picture...
Thank you! And please do not see this comment as a rant.
I do like the show and the lead cast is amazing. In fact, all of them are doing a great job and really so far so good. Lets just hope the CVs don't ruin it later...
