OMG- purab walks out of jassi !!!!!!! - Page 2

Samir, you're doing the right thing. 🤗

No point in wasting another year of your life on this serial for 5 days of monthly shooting.

[quote=jprasad]Samir Soni left his livelyhood in the US to pursue his dreams and why should he have to settle. I think he s/b on a show where he is more appreciated. [/quote]

I agree.

Hi Jots,

You raise a good point. Why does Samir come and go? Let's revisit...well, he was brought on the first time as a guest and then brought back by popular demand. The second time he left, he left quite abruptly leaving his viewers quite baffled. I believe that he left due to monetary issues as well as not getting along with some of the cast/crew. Then he is brought back with a bang and the viewers are excited, but within moments of his re-entry, his character is promptly put in the blender and blended to an oblivion. I am assuming the fourth time he is brought back was during this brief interval when we didn't see him, but still it is the same, his character 🤢.

Now he wants to leave again and I say go buddy. For one, I am tired of this stupid love triangle. Secondly, his character has been turned to crap too many times to reform. I know there are a lot of people who love Purab's character, but folks is it worth it to keep him on the show? Can we let him go with our blessings and good wishes?

i agree with jp, when i see sameer soni and the way he keeps on quitting the show, i feel as if he is not as dedicateed to the show as are mona and apurva. I mean he just cant make his mind up as to whether he wants to stay or not and thats why his role goes down hill every time he re-enters!! I think he should go because he hasnt given jjkn as much importance as have mona, apurva and others. He has always had other projects to hand, which he considered more important than jjkn, so why should the creaters of jjkn keep on running after him. He wants to be the lead, well thats just not possible when their are more dedicated actors like mona and apurva, theirs no space for sameer!!!! no offence but i also feel they should let him go, for good this time!!!

Jots 😃

no jots its not that samir is not dedicated...he wants meatier roles...i.e. a better scope for better performances.....but if his character was not there in the original, it is difficult to give him a better chance...they must have not deviated in the first place.....

jjkn is not the only serial where actors/sctresses are sidelined....every family serial has a huge starcast where in a couple of months the whole set of actors/actresses undergo a shift (except for the male/female protaginist/s)

but it is nice to see him come out so frankly about the role and the stupidity of it...i am happy to see some actor/actress question the logic of the story...i am very dejected that apoorva has not done this earlier.....what do they gain by framing purab, now we know that this court case is not going anywhere.....

i want people to revolt in such a way that t/d should regret that they ever requested for a 1 year extension.......

jots ...i think you are being prejudiced.....it is not about dedication but also a lot of other factors. incidentally he is not the first actor who has/is threatening to walk of the show. somehow i think that the directors are not dealing with the story and the workculture on thier sets properly.they ate concentrating on getting trps by hook or crook. there can be only one pair(which is played by armaan and jassi) but that does not imply that all the other characters should go for a toss(has happened from the group, purab to mallika).

as for samirsoni....if the rumours are to be believed , he is brought back with the promise of a meatier role everytime and then his character is shredded into pieces within a day or two of his entry.strangely it is not the public opinion that influences this decision but the beserk story(no logic, no rhythm ). also asking an actor to reserve certain days for shooting and then cancelling them on short notice is very unprofessional.it would enrage anyone. all in all ....i think that the directors are treading very thin ice both on and off the screen.

samir soni did the right thing by quitting anyway he didnt have any role and importance in jjkn esp in this comeback of his ,so good luck to him

I have asked them to terminate my character in some way or the other. My contract with them expires in July, but I have requested them to attend to my annoyance and relieve me before that. I have even informed the director Imtiaz," revealed Purab of Jassi.... Since the story has gone linear after Jassi's transformation to Jessica, many characters have not been too happy with the show. Rajesh Khera (Maddy) and Shabnam (secretary at Gulmohur House) called it a day. Recently, we heard, Maninee De (Pari) was not too happy with the way her character was going and stopped shooting after she spoke to the channel, who in turn convinced her that her track would return in a meatier way some time later. Parmeet Sethi too isn't too happy, but that's more for money. Back to Soni. As a creative actor too, Soni is quite dissatisfied, "I and Nandini (Neena Gupta) were the two main eye-witnesses to Jassi's transformation. I was not asked for any opinion when the hi-drama of the courtroom scene (the court case where Jessica is accuised of killing Jassi) was going on. Would you believe that I didn't even shoot for the court scenes? Whatever you saw, was taken elsewhere; just the face shots were taken with the required expressions," adding, "I am supposed to give 12 days to Jassi... but last month I was asked to report for just 5 days, this month just for 7 days, that means 12 days in two months instead of one." Again he questions the creativity behind the show. "Pray, tell me if something happens to Jassi, would Purab be a prime suspect? Viola! Next week Jassi will be shot at and Purab is going to be the prime suspect," he grimaces. "Actually my character was not in the original Betty La Fea. My character was supposed to last for just four episodes. Incidentally, it became very popular. But this does not imply that I will be used in a way which is terribly annoying,"

for some reason i feel like i have tons & tons to vent out after reading this news......T/D

whats with this shooting and framing purab yaar ..............whats the logic at all????? pleasseeee stop.....

i HATE (to the power of 10,237) jessica ...the whole jessica angle....

i think i am going to stop watching jjkn......

sorry guys...but i think i just cannot take it any longer...i have been really patient with these guys and the mess that they have made.....but this is irrevocable
