If you really want me to list out everything...I will...I'm not an Irfan fan *shock and horror* :P...yes the dialogues were much better in DK...but even then it was a slow show in many ways...many times when they could have made an impact, the scenes didn't REALLY make an impact...not on me atleast...DK waali Anjie largely bored me to death...I LOVE KTLK waali Anjie😆...Mallika is a major improvement over Sheena and her ceiling stares...overall I wasn't MAJORLY impressed by the handling of the Ahmer-Zoya track by the end of the series...infact the ending itself felt kinda abrupt to me😆...

Having watched DK, I can actually see AMPLE scope of improving on the original IF the KTLK team would notice the options they have...and I'm not sure where/if/how they are doing that.

I love this avi too...the way Zeenia's looking at him...fantastic acting by Deepti too...she emotes so beautifully.


Arre shock and horror is too dramatic for my reaction - I'm not aspiring for TV soaps yet 😆

But let's settle that for a difference of opinion. Angie is certainly much better - the actress on KTLK actually makes me grin more that KK herself half the time. And Sheena - to be fair to her - is perhaps more suited to her kind of time and role, given DK isn't a recent show. Mallika however, is easier to connect with, any day, and I must add makes a much better grey character so far. Sheena has an edge of villainy about her, that I don't root for in subtle love triangles.

As for the end - I need to get there, but abrupt doesn't sound like a good heads up ^_^

Anyway, DK is done and past. I hope KTLK can buck up - they can certainly cover up for a bunch of episodes and do better than this!

Since they are going to stretch a 13 episode story [dhoop kinare] to suit today's audience, I would suggest that they introduce interesting subplots. Keep the romance intact but also bring forth the medical background and establish various cameos, perhaps introduce more Doctors too.


Add reasonably researched to that - it sounds very good. But first and foremost, can they please set the outlines for their character evolution time lines? There just seems to be an increased frequency of self contradicting/overdone/too soon sequences, especially for A and N.

There are other ways of showing a character's effectiveness.. they should stop going down this filmy route and you'll understand what I am saying when you watch the last scene of tonight's episode. They are doing the same mistake what BALH did in the first few weeks.. making the obvious even more obvious😆

And yea,
totally agree with you about the 'midpoint' of the show which they seem to be running towards.. well all we can hope for is a well planned track.. hope we get it!



LOL I watched tonight's epi and I know what you mean...god that was a cringe-inducing scene...this is all getting majorly melodramatic now...making the obvious even more obvious like you said *sigh*...Overall also it was a pretty lame epi...all that OTT 'comedy' with Nidhi and Anjie's dads...really not that funny.

Yeah let's see if we get a well planned track ahead.

A gr8 n most needed post, Anu 👍🏼

ok...this My List of the changes I wish in the show ( which despite a few shortcomings, has already become very close to my heart 😳)...If the CVs r actually interested in listening to fans' opinions, here r a few from me: 😃

1) cook/driving instructor track HAS to go...ASAP 🤢

2) Anjie's Dad HAS to be told that his character needs him to be STRICT & FIRM...not a SCREECHIING & SCREAMING buffoon kind of a guy... 🤡

3) "Saiyaan..." ❤️...this outstandingly melodious & romantic tune deserves its due RESPECT...its needs to be used ONLY during Ashni scenes, n that too with a little less pressure on the accelerator (it is being grossly MIS-USED & OVER-USED now )

4) Dr Ranga...this character has gr8 potential...please refer & re-refer to DK's Dr Irfan ...👍🏼

5) AshNi lovestory 😍 needs TIME to blossom...for it to appear REAL to us viewers,,,,,,again, CVs, please release the pressure from the accelerator...we r in no great hurry...😆 ...

WE DON'T WISH TO HEAR THE CVs SINGING

NA TUNE SIGNAL TODA,

Great post...n well needed too...

I havent watched DK even one bit, so i wont be comparing..instead i would like to highlight few pts that lack in ktlk..

1. Hospital scenes-- seriously does Dr. Kotnis hosp have one 3 rooms (ashutosh's cabin, dr. Ranga's cabin n the children's ward..and sometimes they go so kind as to show the OT n that too without the operation table) and 4 docs(nidhi, ashutosh, mallika n rangnath) in all? they are merely using the hosp as a prop atm.
I hope they DO show a few more docs and esp the interns, which i dont know why, are completely forgotten.

2. I'd like to add one more pt here. The interaction of nidhi with fellow interns is minimal or hardly shown, even though at a workplace u interact with ur colleagues firstly. And that invitation to fellow intern's shaadi after resigning was confusing..😕

3. The supposed 'attraction' btw ashutosh and nidhi is annoying me to no extent. maybe one can understand nidhi's attraction for ashutosh,even though she says he is 'khadoos', but i just FAIL to understand the pull experienced by dr.A, who i'm sure would have seen girls to some extent like nidhi and who 'supposedly' Doesnt believe in love. So how come he's falling for nidhi this early??😕

4. Dr. Hardstone???-- i dont find dr. A as hardstone, since he smiles with everyone and is too lenient, like in shehenshah's operation, nidhi's break-in in his cabin, while he should, acc to me, be a no-nonsense person.

i'll edit more as they come into my mind.

I missed last two episodes but I agree that it seems little unrealistic how everyone's going gaga over Nidhi. They didn't show anything substantial for audience to believe Nidhi's magical power. 😆
On that highlighted part: Couldn't it be possible that the intern was in the same Medical school with Nidhi?


Forget magical powers.. no medical institution hinges so much on one person's ability 😆

Sukhi, when that lady maaroed the "pyar karne waala PATI mile" line, I was just like *headdesk*...I guess no desi soap can be complete without these kind of cheesy lines *sigh*...and to make it even more "perfect" they have to cut to a shot of Ashutosh just then...what "subtle" foreshadowing🤔

Great points, Pari👍🏼

Totally...there are hardly 3 doctors in the hospital and hardly any of them have been shown to have proper interactions with Nidhi...in the hardly 2 days that she was even at the hospital...and we are expected to believe that these ppl are all sooo close and bffs now 😕...WORD on the fact that the hospital is a mere PROP to these pp...as are all the extra doctor characters...when in reality those characters can be well used to develop the story.

And yes, Nidhi-Ashu's 'attraction' is not being given a good gradual build up...they shouldn't be thinking about each other SO much also at this point...

^^ damn I just come online to check reviews before watching tonight's hour long epi - and Tanu, you don't sound encouraging at all.

Might as well skip and keep my Friday night uneventfully cheerful?! 😆
