The dialogues between ahmer & his baba were poignant & thought-evoking while Dr.Irfan had some of the most hilarious and poetic lines in the show! But there weren't much interactions between the protagonists . MAy be coz it was a weekend show.
But in KTLK, we can expect the two taking their own time to fall in love; more scenes together for eg- nidhi taking care of a sick Ashutosh ( in DK, she visits him , gives a bouquet & goes away after 10 minutes conversation) or her father's birthday ( one can never forget zoya's face glowing behind the candles on the cake while ahmer looks at her mesmerized😍
When u think about it, there are many scenes in Dk that leaves u yearning for more to watch between the two
Well, we are so used to the elongation of a script in todays TV genre that we have actually forgotten the story telling skills of a 13 episode show...There was an Indian show called Kashish, 13 episode intense love story...One of the best Indian shows in my mind and their LS also started abruptly because thats how the 13 episode shows are...
but you make a very good point...The daily show, if taken sensitively, can be a great forum to potray an evolving love...Each episode can be a small step towards the eventual pristine love...Take us through the journey, make us fall in love the way the protaganist will fall in love...that is the way we would connect to them completely...and then the writers can also meet the challenge of converting a 13 episode into a 200+ episode show...I saw this delicate nuance only in one show - LTL...The love story took its time to fully blow...The protaganist took hos time to fall in love because it was true love, beyond the physical silhouettes...and that is what touched us the most...every episode became spl becauae every episode was an essential step to their love...We fell in love with them...well, I can go on and on about th show, but I hope we see that here!!!...
I agree the end was very abrupt, I guess because the PH was strict about covering it in 13 episodes...
and yes, excellent point..I agree...If the writer has to make the best of DK script, the scenes u have mentioned can be made v v spl...Oh god!! u have reminded me of tht show again vividly...I have to go and watch it again!! 😳😳😳
