| Nimmo finds a place in our heart! | |||||||
| What happens when undiscovered talent, veteran actors and the queen of all production houses come together- you get a brilliant amalgamation called Kya Hoga Nimmo Ka! It is one of those soaps under the Balaji roof that has a completely different way of telling a story and keeps the audience rooted to their couch, undoubtedly!
Unlike the storylines of other K serials which revolve around nothing but usual cranky drama, KHNK has something much more unusual to offer. The characters are well sketched and the actors playing it do complete justice to it. The Gujarati element finds its space in this 'K' product again, but with a difference. But the creator brings in the Punjabi flavour too, which gives the former tough competition! So the audience has variety in a half hour slot! Sanjeeda, Ekta's new find, shows potential, and needs no lessons to brush up on the essentials like (Ekta's) other freshers do! From acting to expressions, everything is up to the mark. Though the primary idea of her character, being middle class, sincere, a plain Jane and accident prone is clichd, her relationship with the Almighty is one aspect that keeps Nimmo ticking. Coming to the heartthrob of the show, Eijaz Khan, ask any teenybopper and she will vouch that he looks even hotter! What took my breath away was his entry on the show. Ravishing is an understatement! His effort to look dumbstruck 24x7 turns out astounding. But in certain scenes, it's really difficult to pinpoint whether he's acting like the perplexed Kunal Sehgal or Eijaz literally missed on his acting bit!
The two leads have a very different chemistry to offer, while Nimmo is outright and smart; Kunal is as puzzled as ever. The contract marriage sequence and the following tracks are thoughtfully penned down. The exciting bit which I am desperately awaiting is the love angle between Nimmo and Kunal… Bharati Achrekar, whose character of Kanta ben at first seemed 'just another replica' is unexpectedly, the heart of the show! She takes centerstage as soon as she makes an entry in each episode. Sujata Mehta and Muni Jha too have their moments; as a Gujarati couple, they complement each other very well. The two sisters, Swati and Naina, though not extraordinary, are still on their way to reach the level! Navneet Nishan plays a glam vamp whose bitchy attitude as Parminder keeps the audience wanting more, but can't get enough. The sidekicks of the Sehgal house are the essentials for the fast moving storyline and completely fit in! Sanjeet Bedi does a good job too, but needs to cut down a bit on his excitement and get a little more expressive than he usual does.
Though there are many USPs of this show, but one positively is Dolly Thakore's debut. Though she loses out on her delivery of Hindi dialogue, her personality and aura can make the audience overlook everything else. Despite of having a line-up of characters, KHNK avoids getting messy or ignores its main track. The show has kick-started in the most convincing way, and one can only hope the fire sustains, and doesn't get dragged with viewers searching for new shows on the 10 pm slot elsewhere! |
