I guess in the entertainment business looks do matter then anyway else.
I just wish more effort was made to get a handsome face for the role now, even a handsome model take the job and the director to mould him into giving the right performance speaking honestly if they did find someone who was interested in his craft and prepared to put in the effort to learn his craft, give him a chance, I would be really happy. Right now the trademark of the show is ruined (this was the only show where the male and female leads were both good looking), for a young girl like Madhu to fantasize of AK and he is not cute or handsome, is not believable.
The story is good, I just wish I was enthusiastic and counting the hours and minutes to watch the show like I was at the beginning when I first started to watch MEIEJ in 2012. It's a fresh story, but the CV's didn't deliver on casting the main lead this time, they messed up.
