MB emotes well thru his eyes just like his talented mom!

And I like KK too; She brings a smile on ur face with her antics!😆

Dislike- his flashbacks! I wasn't please to see him act like a 20year old

Anjie-RN scene- looks like I am the only one who didnot enjoy those scenes.As per the original story RN will soon fall in love with her; but I find no chemistry between them at the moment

I am really finding it very difficult to connect with Dr. A's history with his baba. It is very irritating to me actually because I love Dr. Ahmer's scenes with his baba. I just do not know why they can't establish good scenes with Dr. A and his father.

So I can't even compare and contrast cause I saw DK so long ago, I don't remember details like that! But even independent of that comparison, its just being executed in a very shallow manner. Zero connect so far - given its an MB exclusive frame, it could be so so much better! I hope I offend no one, but I'm not exactly an Alok Nath fan... 😳 Still i'd expect this kind of history sequence to play much better between actors like them. And Ashutosh as a hyper 20 something with a violin was just, jutting out of nowhere for me.

Another irritating part is they just can't seem to decide what specialty Dr. A is practicing. one day he is a pediatrician the other day he is Gynecologist. Are they trying to say he is a genius and hence he can handle all the specialties.😕 My sister is a pediatrician she finds all the inconsistencies with the medical part of the show so irritating that she just switched it off. 😆 She said I do not want to watch it.

LOL - yeh Tanu mentioned how med people were having that problem. I'm far more affected by the characterization as such, and the screenplay all the more - so I can pass the medic stuff, if that goes well. Some dialogues actually show promise - but then something very trite follows it up and disappoints me. I wish to no end that they'd alternate better between silent emoting and good sound dialogue ...

Another thing that I find extremely irritating is the fact that Nidhi told the guy he was going to be a father of a baby girl before the baby was born.

Okay so I'm not sure I'll make sense, I'm certainly not defending the stand here - but I would almost pass that slip off as in character for Nidhi. Clearly her history has a sweet sour chord with the mother daughter bond - and maybe this was more of ... you know, like an excited spill of detail than a solemnly made thoughtful statement. I think the whole idea of a mother daughter bond is this mystical special thing to her - and she probably just jumped the gun and told him how a daughter was saving mother...! Its something her character is quite capable of - such verbal and casual negligence in her excitement!

I agree with the cabin scene. I enjoyed it but the way it ended was a bit I do not know let me just put it this way that I did not expect it to end that way.

Haha! Well that makes it 3 of us then 😆 yeh, we could certainly do without those blocks. The rest of it - thumbs up.

Thanks for your thoughts. I really hope they just make Dr. A a pediatrician permanently and hence I can watch the show peacefully. Looking forward to a better next week. In dhoop kinare Dr. Ahmer was a pediatrician I seriously do not remember him delivering a baby. 😕Lets just stick to that.

Nice post JZ..

I liked how she did not just enter into his room on impulse...but actually went to inquire about him at the reception..so that was a nice touch.. Also liked that bit when Ashutosh after finding Nidhi in his room turns back to look at Anjie and gives that expression 😆 😆..

Lol - yes, those were all nice nuances Maz - the Ashutosh look to Anji's hitting her head expressions was 😆 The blocks were just iffy for me. I suppose enjoying the scene so genuinely made me hate on them more, eh! 😳

I like Anjie...quite crazy in her own way like Nidhi...of course that's why they are friends..😆 Her scenes with Ranganath were funny yeah...they will be the cheesy romantic couple, LOL...I'm ok with it..they will be a good buffer for Ashutosh-Nidhi..

Yes, exactly! The idea of a laid back buffer around the gravity of AN is certainly not unwelcome to me. And me too, me too! Anji makes it good on screen space - does justice to her time. And their bond is simple and real and natural - thumbs up to the girl thing! 👍🏼

@medical aspect...totally agree with you guys...it's unintentionally funny...especially the OT scenes..it's like 2 mins noodles ki tarah, they are done with the operations 😆 woh bhi delivery ke direct baad hysterectomy! And also if Nidhi realized there was a tumor after an ultrasound, abhi tak what were the docs doing? Don't they have regular ultrasound check-ups that could have shown this earlier? And the most funny part was Nidhi telling the patient's husband that they are going to have a baby girl..If I'm right, finding out the sex of the baby is illegal in India!


Word to the bold! 😆 The unintentionally funny, is actually funny the wrong way 😆 And as I said to Keva, although it is more likely a detailing error, I suppose the revealing of gender can go down as passable in Nidhi's character. She's not exactly the rule following or think before speak/act person!

Guess it's all in the name of creative liberty!

Talk about creative liberty - its exceedingly abused on TV... too much to stand too often - lets hope KTLK can curb their excess... although Rajan Shahi behind the scenes is never a source of solace to me personally. The more they take creative liberty for granted, the more I miss you know what... 😒

Lovely analysis as always, Jzee! Thanks for making a post!


I just got around to watching the epi...it wasn't too bad...I'm not expecting any medical realism from the show so I ignore those parts in general as long as they are not as horrendous as Clowns Mil Gaye.

I was surprised at the bits they changed from the original DK scene in the cabin scene...I was expecting an exact carbon copy...so I'm still not too sure about what to make of the the addition of the typical 'rasta rok liya' type of scene they showed with AN there. I liked the touch they added of Nidhi's bemusement at being scared by the skeleton then realizing what it is...that bit KK did very sweetly...but Ashutosh getting all flustered over the rasta roko was a bit much at this stage...this is just a week into the show. They added other different touches like Nidhi putting the coat back on the chair rather than handing it to him like Zoya did with Ahmer...so that bit again just felt different...they are just treating the whole 'hichkichahat' angle differently in this show I guess...I just hadn't thought Ashutosh's hichkichahat's' will start so soon...lol...although it was good to see him remember to remind her about the injection. That storyline also feels it's a bit early in the game compared to the original...ah well.

Okay - pretty much word to all that Nur. I am glad though, about not refreshing my DK memories, cause I think I'd be far more prone to comparison than is healthy to upkeep for a Shahi show 😆
That said, its curious they should introduce hesitance or consciousness on Ashutosh's account already, since they are actually striving to air this show much longer than the original. I'd have taken time getting to it - 250 episodes is plenty of time. But minus that debatable 3 blocks conclusion, the cabin scene was well done, came naturally, and luckily for us was perfectly enacted by both MB, and even KK! The skeleton bit was so cute, especially MB going finished?! 😆 I couldn't help but wonder all the time, how it would not hit him one of these days, that she was such a junior subordinate and that he was actually unassumingly compelled into far more liberty for her than a head could technically afford around a junior! 😆 Btw, KK putting that coat back on his chair - was very subtly well done done by her. She was actually cheeky and jumpy at once in that bit 😆

I liked the Anjie-Ranganath scene...Vishal was actually amusing with his reactions to the way Anjie was making up bimaris...lol...

Haha! Yeh, I still find Vishal sort of trying to fit into his role, but this scene to me was well done. Like I said to Tanu I think, between the cabin scene, and this An-R scene, we had too well done cute sequences of potential love stories - like those classic memories from the build up phase! Shamil said the original had a better bonding for those two - but like Maz, I'm just happy to watch these two play buffer, as long as they don't turn lunatic in the name of creative liberty!


Another thing...they are making Malika too defensive very early in this show...Sheena didn't start her full on cutting out Zoya sessions until later...yahaan toh already Malika is not even letting Nidhi operate? LOL...granted Nidhi's reputation at this point for carelessness would give anyone pause...but even then...that moment seemed more about female ego battling over Ashutosh than a doctor's expertise.

Too soon, yeh? I just remember Sheena being a little too dark for a grey vamp character that I prefer this role to be. So can't compare as you do - but yes, Mallika's iffy take yesterday was certainly beyond professionalism. She's not jealous yet of course, a while to get there, not even wary so to say, but the instinct has subconsciously kicked in, and like you said - its almost too soon. But if Ashutosh is going faster than Ahmer, than maybe it going to be like that? I'm still hoping the other news of Ashutosh having a sour love history isn't true. That would really dilute the story's concept for me, personally - bot for the Ashu-Mallika and Ashu-Nidhi angles.

I forwarded all the Irfan-Anjie scenes in the original😛😆...found them quite blah and actually annoying in bits :P...so I think Anji-Rangnath are cute for now...Vishal's a good actor...if they give him better material, I think he'll settle into this role better. I thought him and Anjie had good chemistry in that scene...I can see it growing in the future.
