i beg to differ, i think srj as krishna is awesome, he is at par with nitish bhaaradwaaj right now.

Have to agree with your post. I love the epic so maybe i want a little more. As the choice maybe Arjun is ok in looks but i want the character more stronger.

Will firstly i would say all the actors of the old MB were excellent each and every one of them lived these characters and i dont think any other actor can ever match up to their level.The actors in this new MB who have come the closest to the excellent potrayal done by actors in the old MB are Arav as Bheeshm and SRJ as krishna.

Other than these two i like actors playing Dhridhrashtra,Gandhari,kunti,shakuni,Arjun and Karan

I feel nothing too deep about certain actors in so far as the most I do exists on surface level, nevertheless some happen to be very good at entering wholeheartedly into the mentality of their respective role whilst others merely float on the facade. Some induce us to feel appropriate emotions, whether that be empathy in Karnas even Dhritarastra or Gandharis case, awe in Bhishmas, and charm in Krishnas whom we have yet to see more of. But as yet its hard to become engrossed within them in a sense perhaps due to the way the story is directed, it does seem almost always that there is conscious effort to manufacture emotion which becomes translated as enforced and unreal. Consider the over emphasis of close ups in dramatized moments on particular expressions as if we can't fill in the gap ourselves that these have to be literally spelt out for us. The actors feel, but I don't feel as much as i would like to.[I][/I][B][/B]

Nope. I don't feel much except on occasions from bhishma, SRJ.

The portrayal of dhritrastra and gandhari are particularly poor if you think of the original MB. Neither actor can portray the necessary emotions.

However, I am still enjoying it, just the quality is not high. 😊

Im totally in sync with you. Other than the characters you mentioned,I havent really gotten around to BELIEVE the other characters.

i lyk dialog delivery of drona.though characterwise my fav is bheeshma.shaheer looks like arjun and in action sequences he is gud bt sumtimes i thnk when focus if on him he gets a bit uncomfortable. but still i luv❤️ him as arjun as for me he luks like arjun.no word needed for krishna.he is manmohana😳.initially i dint think kunti was gud but now i think she suits her character.karna actor is quite gud as he emotes his anger and frustation well.oh n how cud i forget drit and ghandhari they are superb.as for shakuni sumtimes except his wrong pronuciation of certain words he acts well.dury is gud too but if a villain looks so good how r we gonna hate him😛

Although yes,I disagree with your bit about SRJ. He is certainly one of the best we have on the show. Honestly,one the meain reasons i decided to watch MB,was SRJ enacting Krishna 😳
