And about Elena,I know it's quite stupid to support her but we all,mostly all,have a typical love guru when we fall for someone who tries to encourage us and in fact forces us to confess.😆 But there too Sona acted gracefully. But her dreams were solely hers,Elene never influenced them ..as she never had a friend mentioned by her only,she only had two friends since childhood her brother and Elena,so she has to share this with them. Quite normal for any girl.

Again Peace.😆

But yes the Sona we saw in initial promos will be portrayed once Ishwari track starts. Have faith.😳

I agree with some points and some points I do not agree with.

Really glad someone brought this up. I hope the future of this show holds some substance for Sonakshi's character. The Elena-Sona dynamic got boring after like 3 episodes. I kinda want Sona to bring this up with Dev. That she feels her job at their house is done and she wants to go back to working in a hospital and not a kitchen.

Topic maker! You stole the words out of my mouth!

Sometimes I wonder whether it's really hard for an Indian serial to maintain a character after they fall in love? I mean isn't the underlying point that you fall in love with your original characteristics/traits intact? I rmbr watching the first week of the episodes and I loved the authority in Sonakshi's character! It was a treat to watch in all honesty! Also I don't think she has to know how to cook in order to be a nutritionist! There job is to truly just make charts and study properties of food. Nothing more really..

Coming to the immaturity displayed by Sonakshi's character! I agree, there really were moments where I was like "stop grab a hold of yourself. Go out and find a new job and move on" bcos in reality, one sided love stories do happen, you don't see majority of people mopping around and crying till 3am in the morning. One day, maybe two, by the third night you will be fine. Chill. I agree didn't appreciate the whole "my first love story ended without starting" phase, mainly bcos I truly think love isnt handled well in Indian tv shows (bcos what they feel isn't love and is infatuation. And yep I am a very critical person in life 🤪). She needs to move out of the Ishwari mansion and find a new job. It's high time that she left the place for at least her own satisfaction (bcos I rmbr an epi where she was talking to her dad about how much she loves her job).

Coming to her acting, she is not too bad in my opinion. It's more the dialogues and plot line that lets Erica down! But I am crossing my fingers (and toes) that the original headstrong, confident and disciplined Sona stands up soon... I truly do believe that Neha has more substance than Sonakshi, but I also believe Neha probably has the best character on the show. Ishwari er meh, it's kind of an periodical cycle that she wants to break and intervene on. I truly believe the CVs have done an amazing job when penning down Neha's character, it's very hard hitting and no matter how bitter she is in the show, she will always make my heart break at her complexity.


Coming to butchering of a character, Dev and Sona have both been butchered. No one in this world with a business to run like dev, ignores their commitments like he does. It's just random to see how a change like that occurs in one night? Already talked about Sona's butchering, Neha too to an extent really (fine line btwn manipulation and bitterness). I don't know why Indian tv serials think making a character fall in love, changes their attitudes and outlook towards life? It's a bit of a "W*F" in my opinion


(Highly controversial point here, please don't bash me.. I actually really liked the confession at a superficial glance, I truly did. Then it set in and one line. One part of the confession really irked me, maybe bcos it's wasn't a very well phrased statement, yet a lot of people seemed to have been appreciating it. Meep, I am just very critical in life and the statement was this "I love you like a man loves a woman." Bro what about a woman loving a woman, a man loving a man, a transgender loving their partner? No? At a superficial level I fangirled and hyperventilated. When it set in, I was majority disappointed. It's not like India has no LGBT community, it was just a very regressive statement in my eyes esp since this Ep aired like a couple of days after the Orlando massacre. And what really irked me was that Durjoy Dutta wrote the confession, I thought the dude was in with the times. Clearly not. Just my opinion on the confession scene, I expected more bcos this show has preached realism since it started. That notion is also dwindling. Peace)

Dr. Bose, Dr. Sonakshi Bose is a nutritionist. They shaped up her character really well, someone who has a good amount of self confidence and self respect.

But it seed rather too stupid to be full time nutritionist at Dev's house. I mean, what was her job ? Make diet charts, direct Kichu bhaiyya and make Ishwari eat food ? Is that it ? To me, it seemed like the writers wanted to create some relation between the mother, the girl and the boy and they couldn't think of any other way out. I mean seriously, what is she doing at Dev's house from morning to evening? And to top it all, she is a nutritionist who doesn't even know to cook. And nowadays Ishwari is also following her diet chart, so there is really, really no need for her to be there 24X7.

There was some depth in her character before the accident sequence. But after that, and also with the entry of Elena the writers just began butchering her character. They just take it a bit too far. Dreaming, was fine. But over dreaming and thinking of him too much and the constant lecturing of Elena was irritating. And not to mention Erica's pathetic acting. The incessant crying was a pain in the eyes to watch.

There is no matter and depth left to Erica's character Sonakshi. She simply looks like a doll, who gets ready in the morning to meet Dev at his house. She basically has no aim in her life.

Kuch Rang, is a good watch, but there are a thousand cons as well. But I would like to appreciate its music. It's simply superb. It's awesome. Every time, every little piece of music, every song is beautiful. Dev has a great character depth. Shaheer acts really well. He emotes well. Supriya Pilgaonkar as Ishwari is amazing ! She knows to act. Actually even Neha has matter and depth in her character. The Dixit family is good to watch. They have substance.

While on the other hand, the Bose family is far from irritating. I just don't understand their presence. What are they up to? The episode doesn't really need them. They are just fillers these days. But before the accident, the Bose family was truly adorable.

Dev on one hand seems so mature and understanding, while Sonakshi is really just a doll. I agree the proposal scene was good. A treat to watch. Then a few scenes here and there. But I don't understand Sonakshi anymore. Her character is not worth a lead. Neha is way better than her. Comparing with Shaheer, I am really sorry but I dont think Erica is acting well these days. It's not cute anymore. It's irritating. Sonakshi, what is Sonakshi anymore ? Her character has not shaped up well. It's not a treat to watch anymore, a girl who basically does no work at all but still is at the Dixit household for namesake. I think they should probably show Ranveer and Neha more. They have some good story. And oh did I forget Tina. She's such an angel ! She has better characterisation than Sonakshi Bose.

I am sorry if anyone gets offended. I am sure many will, cause everyone is loving the new romance. But I really feel they aren't showing any depth in the script anymore, atleast with the entire Bose family.

Please feel free to comment. I would love to know your opinions too.

Love,

Sindhu

Well I agree with most of ur points, from a strong independent confident career woman she has become a weepy dreamer.she's always hanging out at devs house with the intention of catchjng romantic moments. Sonakshi's character has really gone down after falling in love. This is a message to audience? Women how so ever smart they are become coy over romantic non ambitious girls once in love 😭

But I strongly disagree about erica. She has improved a LOT frm first episode i feel.hercrying weepy days were repititive but she acted well. Shaheer to kamal ka hai hi erica bhi aajkal barabar takkar deti hai 👏 its thescript which has problem

What a relief to see some one genuinely put forth the lapses in the show especially Sonakshi's Charecter and Erica's pathetic acting. Thank God you felt the same like I did. Yes. Sonakshi's Charecter has been butchered and how? I think even Natasha's Charecter has some integrity as she always is shown serious about her work though she is in love with Dev. And Dr Sonakshi Bose must have forgotten she has a great career sorry she used to have. Now all she does is what you explained in your post. I need not say anything more. Thank you for being genuine and straight while posting your views. Thank you very much.

I have to disagree with the author of this topic...and the writers of this show have studied human behavior... Sona started of like every independent woman,she studied hard and became the best in her field...and she was proud of that...she had her opinions and stood by it but when Mr handsome hunk mother fell ill he wanted the best for her and he went after sona...if you remember in earlier episodes he blocked her from all other job offers and interviews...it was the heart to heart talk with my favourite character her father that made her take the job...

Agree to your point about Sona's profession. Makers just wanted to show regular Dev Sona and Ishwari interaction so Sona's profession went down the drain. Atleast they shud show that she is seeing other patients, doing some consultation post working hours at Dev's house, connect with doctors. I was really angry with the writers when she went back to work just bcoz Dev waited 5hrs for her.
