Onscreen chemistry between a lead
couple on a TV show is a must.
Agree? However, the telly equations
are surely tilting towards newer
definitions, with content taking over
the prime time.
So, now you see a powerfully woven
story taking over the chemistry
factor. We have had seen it all in the
past, how the chemistry between a
lead couple helped a show win
audience's hearts. Mihir and Tulsi in
Kyunkii...Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi or
Maan and Geet in Geet...Hui Sabse
Parayi or Arnav and Khushi from Iss
Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon?
Now, that thing has become a passe.
Picture this, Sooraj (Anas Rashid)
and Sandhya (Deepika Singh) in Diya
Aur Baati Hum, Zoya (Surbhi Jyoti)
and Asad (Karan Singh Grover) in
Qubool Ha i, RK (Vivian D'Sena) and
Madhubala ( Drashti Dhami ) in
Madhubala...Ek Ishq Ek Junoon ,
Anandi ( Toral Rasputra) and Shiv (
Siddharth Shukla ) in Balika Vadhu or
Raj (Karan V Grover) Sarita (Srishty
Rode) in Punar Vivah - Ek Nayi
Umeed " although all these pairs are
highly popular within audiences but,
the show popularity is backed by a
well written and very well crafted
execution.
Of late, it is the dramatic twists in
the tales that is working for these
shows and is garnering them more
TVTs. Producer Sudhir Sharma says,
"It is content that makes or breaks a
show. Indeed good cast and lead
couple's chemistry are key factors
for any show to garner audiences,
like how the onscreen chemistry
between Sanaya Irani and Barun
Sobti impacted Iss Pyaar Ko Kya
Naam Doon ? At the same time, new
faces get a better mileage owing to a
great storyline and powerful content.
Despite a strong lead cast, some
shows failed to grab eyeballs in
recent times too due to weak
content."
Many in the industry feel, it's
ultimately good content that sparks
off the onscreen chemistry between
the lead couple. Producer Asit
Kumarr Modi shares, "If content fails,
the chemistry of lead couple is going
to take a show nowhere. So, any day
producers and directors will focus on
a better story-line. Despite the lead
couple's sizzling onscreen chemistry
in some shows, ratings experienced
a dip because of weaker tracks. The
same applies to my show also."
Agrees actress Adaa Khan, who says,
"Content of a show is most important
for its popularity than it was before.
Actors' chemistry is an add on and
it's the camera's perspective and the
director's vision that makes a lead
couple strike a chord and look good
on screen."
Actor Jay Soni says, "Like in films
where just one scene or one good
song doesn't make a film a big hit, a
TV show can't click with just the help
of a good screen chemistry. The
storyline has to be up to the mark.
How a story flows and the character
sketch has to have a balance and be
in sync."
With lead replacements becoming too
frequent these days, the focus has
shifted more towards how a story is
shaping up, leading to a diverse set
of stories and genres being explored
by the TV fraternity.
