*EDIT*

1) Has MJHT lost it's charm that it began with?

a) Think about Characterization.
It definitely has. What begun with a sweet simple attractive show for youngsters has been butchered into an unpredictable, Non-happening show,the freshness Attractive ness .Almost everything it began with has gone.Characters tortured and changed.

I believe mayank mentioned exams? Where are they they? Postponed? Vacations? moved? Just to introduce a new couple?

If you look down with the early epiodes ,everything has changed.


b) Think about Plots
Plots? Definitely. Evreything was changed starting from the pool scenes to bets and even the RJ hunt waas fun. But Rv setting some plan to arrest his own classmates?.Why would a"highness" Come to the college at all?Bui would send babloo Nupur's so called "Tob e" without a photo of her? . The early episodes were fun but this is Not !

c) Think about Dialogues- Dialogues.A few sensible ones here and there and then whoosh !. Everything was not sensible.Whistling classes really?.Pathetic.And nowadays.It's really A torture.

d) Think about the Goals this show had, and they are at this current time
Goals? I think the main goal was to keep viewer's glued? Well,it's not doing that successfully. And showing new things dosen't mean Bringing or rather,dragging in new characters.

2) What are things that Made you watch MJHT?
It's freshness? Early episodes were a treat to watch.Less can be said for now.

3) Can College Campus be expanded -- but not lose it's charm?
Yes,it can be.

4) What Plots have creatives not explored?
There are many plots.Sam's parents. i dont like the way it's shaping up.it sounds more like a long lost brother-sister pair. Mayanks dad? . And if you tend to write it down ,it'll be endless.

5) What is your college life like, or was --- do you relate to it?
I cant say as i have never yet been to college.
Can you add your experiences to MJHT for the concepts we plan to create?
yes, I can. Got loads of them

what an idea Avani!
Id love to join the writers group.

1) Has MJHT lost it's charm that it began with?

a) Think about Characterization
No.The characters are perfect to begin with.Nupur is still using her 'By-God' and other comic and filmy one-liners.Although she is missing Mayank,she dosen't show it and tries to tackle the problems with her sweet smile.That's the true Nupur.Mayank is still full of sarcasm that can be seen from the phone conversations between the both.Trying to make others jealous is something he has been doing from the beginning,for example the exam results.Samrat might have changed a bit,but he seems committed to his relationship with Gunjan and therefore acts all cheesy and romantic.But the repect towards girls which he had before is lacking a bit.Gunjan is becoming stronger and is mixing with others like 'the mayur patch up mission' where she lies to her sister.That is for the good,of course.The change was needed to the boring Gunjan.
Uday,dia and Benji are just the same,except now Dia likes to be with her sisters and doesn't consider them to be uncool.As for the new entries,Adhiraj talks with an englidh accent even though he is from Indore and Suhaani speaks pure Hindi even thoufgh she has stayed in London for so many years.Suhaani's character cannot be described as she is mixture of feelings while Adhiraj is too arrogant.

b) Think about Plots
Yes.new and sensible plots are very much needed.The recent plots like the 'Locket Fiasco' or the 'Marriage in 2016' were dumb,to be frank.The SaJan plot was continuously dragged and many of the viewers used to watch the episode on youtube to skip the Sajan parts.While the fights were at least realistic,the girls going to Morena just because they had fought with their respective lovers wasn't relevant.The 'Babloo' act didn't last long and was unnecessary.The sajan confession didn't start off well,and the initiative of the confession wasn't there.They just met in the barn,and confessed.Even the 'Nupur part 2' plot is a bit boring.

c) Think about Dialogues
Not at all.The charm is still very much there.There is nothing too cheesy or too monotonous or boring.The lines are romantic as well as funny.They can be related to the college life cool talk.The relationships can be understood by the dialogues easily.Mayank and Nupur's dialogues during both their confessions were great.They were portraying the true feelings of the both.

d) Think about the Goals this show had, and they are at this current time
Yes.MJHT was made to attract the youth,so what was the need to add marriage talks or Father-in-law giving responsibilities to the Son-in-law even before the college?One of the tracks had maYur talking about marriage.While Mayank was practical,Nupur was not.That wasn't how Nupur was supposed to be.Samrat in the beginning used to respect girls.Now all he wants to do is kiss Gunjan.That is not samrat.And in the beginnig,even Gunjan gave the way.The Mayur scenes in the barn were really great,because such things might happen in your youth ony.But now,even Adhiraj is talking about marrying when they are in college.Everyone wishes for the old Romantic Mayur and the sajan as friend were more fun.The initial stages were more fun.

2) What are things that Made you watch MJHT?
Mayur.I was,am and will be for eternity a complete Mayur fan.The first time I saw Nupur,I thought "How could a girl look that good even in plaits?"I had made a mindset that actresses look good only with open hair,but Rati proved me wrong.As for Mayank,I went madwhen I saw him smiling in the first ad.How could someone look that cute?the minute I decided to watch the sho\w.The characters looked promising,the plot was amazing,and I being a teen had to explore college life.when I saw the first few episodes,I fell in love with the innocence of SaJan,the cute and romantinc Mayur,the funny Uday and Benji and even the arrogant Dia.But nowadays,they don't show the college masti that used to be.

3) Can College Campus be expanded -- but not lose it's charm?
There is no need,but yes,that can be possible.The college can look more lively.

4) What Plots have creatives not explored?
Emotional bonding.The couples are opposites,and therefore the opposites attract part is sure to fall.But the opposites need to understand each other,and that has not been shown much yet.Instead,they show misunderstandings on this basis.They can show some more college life.When do the guys do anything related to studies?the only time was the exams.Even the academic meet was like some parade.

hey Avani, awesome post ! I would love to join the writers club, as a writer for SaJan.

Questions:

1) Has MJHT lost it's charm that it began with?

Oh yah it definitely has lost its initial charm !! But it could be easily fixed with great ideas and realistic tracks that any college going student can relate too.
a) Think about Characterization
They have messed with the characters for sure at one pint on another, more so with Mayur and Gunjan.
b) Think about Plots
The initial plots were realistic and fun, but with time the tracks became more cliched and with the CV's tendency to drag didnt help their cause either.
c) Think about Dialogues
I dont have a problem with the dialogues. They aren't rocking but they are not bad too ! Especially in the case of uday and benji's one liners !! But there is always a room for inprovement.
d) Think about the Goals this show had, and they are at this current time
I feel that the CV's had their heart in the riht place when they started, but somewhat lost their direction on why they made this show. I'll be honest, CV;s are not doing a bad job, if they were, we would have quit by now, but we are sticking with the show, so they are definitely doing something right. Every show has its ups and downs,so has MJHT, but it has us glued to our TV's 😊 They can still achieve their goals, cuz their heart is in the right place, they just need direction.

2) What are things that Made you watch MJHT?
I only got hooked to MJHT because of Sam and Gunjan, I feel in love with these two characters !! 😊
3) Can College Campus be expanded -- but not lose it's charm?
Yes it can, but then again it will cost money and I would rather see that money spend of good tracks for our c haracters rather on college campus
4) What Plots have creatives not explored?
There are quite a few many plots the creatives have not explored !! The list is quite long 😛
5) What is your college life like, or was --- do you relate to it?
My college life was quite unlike the college life of Excel 😆 My college was very strict !! There was no concept of bunking the classes and we wore uniforms if you can believe that !! But I learned a lot !! 😆

Can you add your experiences to MJHT for the concepts we plan to create?
My experiences were quite boring, so can't add those, but I could give you lot of ideas for the show still !! 😆

I would try for the position of general MJHT writer...but only if there is no one else for the job.


Okay..upfirst I want to say this for MJHT:
More books and studies.
More friendship. More sisterly bonding.
More serious scenes and character development for dia and benji.

And also..lease do AWAY with the so called "slip-fall-catch" routine. I am damn TIRED of seeing that! Also unless you realy have the guts to show a liplock between your leads, do NOT show the "almost kisses"


1) Has MJHT lost it's charm that it began with?

Ofcourse it has!!! It is becoming redundant and hackneyed!

a) Think about Characterization
Characterization...well I never was that much a fan of characterization except fr the character of Mayank perhaps. I think all characters except Samrat to some extent have been ruined. Mayank especially has been reduced to a locket wearing freak who "checks the water content of pools to express his love for Nupur". The locket track was way pathetic and it ruined poor Mayank's character way too much..I don't think any self respecting guy is going to wear that ridiculous locket! e studies no more...is focused only on his love life...basically the zeal and drive in his character is lost. He shuld be shown more focused on his studies and be the realist.

Gunjan- Well I was never happy with her character as her unnatural silence I found too odd and unrealistic. She was shown in the middle trying to be confident and I second that sort of track. She should talk more...have a bit of humour and also there should be scenes with other characters in the show...she is only going "Samrat samrat samrat" which I find annoying. She should care for her sister and tere should be scenes portraying the beautiful story of the sisters and their mutual affection for each other.

Nupur- Well...the whole essence of her character is lost. She is reduced to a dumb girl with no brains whatsoever..I mean she can't pronounce basic science terms??? 😕 That made her sound like she was uneducated and illiterate! She is filmy and nautanki, yes, but she was also very smart and esp very sharp....and I can NOT understand the marriage track! Which college going girl, even one from a small town wants to marry at this age??? It cheapened her character to a desperate girl out for marrying only!

Samrat- I think his is the only character not too changed. Plus he is getting the bro-sis track which will be good for him. He should not lose his essence though and he should NOT become a devdaas.

The other characters like Dia (esp her) Benji and Dodo...well barring Dodo..can there be some character development in dia and benji? Why should Benji always play the side kick and always be shown running here and there after samrat, trying to unravel his messy plots? Cannot he have a good character story? And Dia too!

Also, I think there should be grey characters and not merely the black and white characters we have been fed to! I hate to see mayank and samrat succeed ALL the time...its so annoyingly unrealistic!!!

b) Think about Plots
Plots well...I found the whole Morena track lame...it could be made sensible and there could have been an element of logic in the track but everyone just rushes off to morena. The locket track was pathetic and the current track about everybody fooling adhiraj is dumb.

There are several very simple plots that can be set up...which can reflect college life in all its glory...why is basketball the only sport in Excel? Why isn't ragging ever been dealt with?

Why is the issue of students' drug abuse brought up only as a comic joke n the Mayur track? Why aren't they showing the economic and social differences in the colleges? And whatabout the "groups" that are there in every college.

Coming to the couples...MayUr..they havelost all charm after their rain dance scene just after their confession. Why can't they just sit and talk about love, LIFE, college, struggles, their past experiences and obstacles they have had to cross uptil now? Why don't they talk about their relationships? And please do away with the barns..all I want is a simply candle lit dinner at mayank's place if you wish fr romance. Also, the "misunderstandings" shown b/w them were way too dumb...one can show some realistic misunderstanding b/w them which is a result of gradual differences between them which can be built up. And it is not that difficult because of MN's varied outlooks on life.

SaJan..well Gunjan needs to stop forever humming "samrat samrat samrat" all the time. And is their relationship so fragile as to break at the slightest threat? This problem about Suhaani..it should NOT be shown as THE reason for the SG break up.

c) Think about Dialogues
Dialogues...way too cheesy! The "pyar mein paani ka level nahi dekhte" was the WORST of the lot!

d) Think about the Goals this show had, and they are at this current time
I think they wanted a cheesy college based teenage drama and they haven't exactly changed. It is just that MJHT was atleast bearable earlier..now it has gone for a complete toss.

2) What are things that Made you watch MJHT?
Err some random and rare things called as "friendship" and the relationship between the two Morena sisters..but they botched that up too when they showed only Nupur caring for Gunjan and Gunjan never getting the time to care for Nupur! It was all one sided!

3) Can College Campus be expanded -- but not lose it's charm?
What do you mean by that?? If you mean for the plots to go out of the college..I would say fine but to an extent! All the plots and the characters should always come back o the college...because that is why I watch the show..I don't want for the characters to get married, have ten kids and get involved in bitter divorce proceedings! I can watch any ekta Kapoor show for that, thank you!


4) What Plots have creatives not explored?
I've written some down above in the "plot" area. What I want is more friendship (ad I mean true friendship scenes) and those can be shown if you show a logical souring in the friendships and THEN showing the characters getting over the misunderstandings and going on to become stronger people and better friends.
More development of the side characters. I do NOT want them to be only for comic scenes! I want them to have emo scenes and serious scenes also!

5) What is your college life like, or was --- do you relate to it?

I am still in college and I don't relate to MJHT. Never did anyway. In my coll there are spats b/w friends, there are the cold wars between the various groups that are formed, the one-upmanship for the teacher's pet job and lots of gossiping and rumours. And there are several people who are popular, not like MJHT where only samrat and mayank are THE dudes of the college. and they can do no wrong!

Can you add your experiences to MJHT for the concepts we plan to create?

I have listed several down in the previous question

jus one doubt before I really begin, I hope this post has some good value in the future and that the makers of this show WILL definitely respect our opinions regarding this or else we'll have someone saying that 'our opinion isnt even that important'..and hence ther wud not be any need for me to waste my precious time and energy here! because this show has given me loads of entertainment, I m here to give something back to it..I hope it is dealt wit in a nice manner .. 😊

Originally posted by: sportskp



1) Has MJHT lost it's charm that it began with?

YES !!! definitely.. initially when I used to watch MJHT, it was for MJHT as a whole..now when I watch it, its only for SaJan..so yes, the charm has been lost..since now I feel like skipping most of the scenes except my fav characters! There are occasional instances when I love the whole episode, like for example the friday one..but then again, since it was dominated by SG and suhaani was mainly the reason I liked it!

a) Think about Characterization

Well..characterisation is a bit difficult to answer...for me, Mayank and Nupur are the worst ruined characters...and Samrat is the BEST evolved one... gunjan in somewhere in b/w .. she was GONE completely in the sheee-na era...where I used to absolutely get bored on watching her..but looks like she is coming back now...so for now, I will say that samrat's characterisation is the BEST thing that happened in MJHT..whereas MayUr characterisation deterioration are the worst thing that happened...there wer some instances when MJHT began where I actualy preferred mayank over samrat ... I watched the show for ALLL of them..but now, I only watch it for samrat and gunjan!

Samrat - no change needed..by far, the most amazing character in MJHT..the character graph has been tremendous for him..the initial supercool and flirtatious samrat..becoming commited in a relationship..his is the character that has been the most IMPERFECT one..he has made worst mistakes..falling for the wrong girl..getting involved in drunk n drive cases...lying to his best friend and then regretting it..and amongst all that has evolved as a better person..and now this suhaani track can get even better ...

Gunjan - always potrayed as miss PERFECTIONIST cum SAINT .. I cannot deny that she was very unrealistic to begin with..but then its that thing, because at some point v do want to become something like her..someone whom no one can ever hate..someone who's loving, caring, understanding and innocently innocent! and its not like she can committ no mistakes in life..she can, but the thing abt her is that whenever she does, she always learns from it..and hence will think 100000000000 times before she committs another mistake, being the speculative person she is...hence the next time u dont see her committing the same mistake, because there IS no next time for her..she makes sure of that ... and thats why mayb it feels as tho she cannot committ any kinda mistake, which is not true! this can be seen from the V-day epi where she tells samrat that she indeed was a fool to hav stretched tht bet issue soo much..n ever since then she has never ever shown distrust towards samrat..for any reason watsoever! she believs when he tells her the truth... wat I loved the most abt this character was that despite being soo shy and reserved abt everything, jus like she preaches not to lie..she practises it too! once she realised she was in love..never did she try to deny her feelings even to herself! her character wrt sam, has evolved tremendously..from a low-confidence person..to a high-confidence girl..from being a no-friend person..to a person having a male best friend..and undergoing emotions of first love and heart-break..and emerging stronger from that!

however there wer times when her character was the WORST destroyed..and that was during the sheeee-na phase..her intelligence was neglected..and only her pain was potrayed which made her a cry baby..she was made to look as a pathetic and weak woman whose only wim in life was to love samrat and not getting him back meant as if she had no aim left in life, and that soo wasnt her to begin with! and that was the time I stopped relating to her even for a bit..because heartbreak isnt a HUGE thing..its difficult but definitely not impossible to get over a person..she shud hav been shown moving on wit her life..because every gunjan in this world doesnt get her samrat back!

her intelligence was worst under estimated during the sam jail track where all she did was cry for sam..instead she should hav been his pillar of strength and helped him thru that..by cracking the code wit mayank...

in general, her character evolution has been seen only wit samrat..and not wit other characters since ther hasnt been much interaction shown wit other characters! I'd expected more of a gunjan-dia bonding and dia confessing abt her crush on sam...more than nps-dia bonding I wud hav expected a gunjan-dia bonding because both are in the same class too!

I m glad this suhaani track has her playing a pivotal role..she has been given a good chance to expand her character!

the GuNur relationship - this deserves a special mention, because ppl like me watched MJHT mainly for samrat-gunjan and this relationship...because I dont hav a sister myself, i often wonder and admire the relationship these two share..and I hav always ended up smiling, laughing and adoring their scenes.. however, sadly speaking..this one has been ruined to no extent by the CVs..and everytime I try to smile now for their scenes I always experience a pain in my cheek muscles...its too fake for me! the morena track was the WORST phase of their life...because a person like gunjan, who by all means SHOULD hav gotten over..or atleast on the verge of getting over sam..because technically its been 4 months since she experienced a heartbreak..and it IS a long time indeed! a person like nupur would hav been strong enuf to deal wit her trauma in life, because she was shown a bit stronger than the sensitive gunjan..and her ego wud hav never allowed her to go back to morena jus beacuse she experienced a heartbreak and break-up..and that too, acc to her for no fault of hers!


b) Think about Plots

there hav been soo many USELESS plots ... some, have had a role in getting the story move..like for example the recent morena track which got the SG story moving..or the drink n drive case of samrat, which was sooo LAME and UNINTELLIGENT, yet in the long run it helped in samrat realisation...and some sam-realisation hungry fans like me then really watched MJHT despite this lame thing because ofcourse again some brilliant acting and biased love towards certain characters! doesnt deny the fact that the track was stupid! some, really worth watching...the whole RJ hunt or talent parade or secret friend-purab..he as been the best cameo ever! MN academic meet.. where their story got going!

there hav been many plots which are not explored ... social issues like environament pollution or illiteracy ... helping the cancer or AIDS patients.. or even simple tracks like a cute night-out of the three sisters together and they jus talk abt life..normal stuff that the youth does! colleges picnics..nupur missing her mom and talking to mayank..ONLY one of tht aspect has bee involved and thats abt gunjan talking to sam abt his family..but I doubt whether the creatives WILL explore such beautiful tracks ...because such tracks involve loads of thinking and when the CVs hav so many multiple shows to deal wit at the same time who will waste soo much efforts and time and money on jus one small show? the TRPs of one show falling doesnt affect them much because they already hav a hoard of shows from where their economy is restored!

c) Think about Dialogues

dodo and benji's one liners are too good!

samrat and gunjan's dialogues are ALWAYS the best ... straight from the heart and sound really realistic! be it the recent one where sam tells gunjan "tum toh janti ho na, mujhe major attention problem hain..esp jab tum involved hoti ho.." or gunjan's confession ( which sam never heard ) "tumne mere dil aur dimag mein ek aisi jagah bana li hain jo koi nahi le sakta" their dialogues were ALWAYS the best and in character! I m lucky to call myself an SG fan because I hav absolutely no reasons to complain in this department...

however, mayank and nupur's dialogues hav become wayyy to cheesy !!! I was once a HUGE fan of mayank's sarcasm and nupur's cute chutkullas...but sigh, now i jus dont bother to listen to them, they are soo irritating to my ears!

d) Think about the Goals this show had, and they are at this current time

I think their main theme to launch wit was "opposites attract' and they hav achieved it

wrt sam and gunjan's love story ... this is more like "opposites attraact, they accept and stay together for life"

with mayank and nupur it has been "opposites attract, accept..but cannot stay together"

however I highly doubt whether their aim was ever to look beyond these love stories..and include other relations as long as they keep attracting audiences tht love watching their show ... now ther hav been many ppl who might hav quit watching MJHT after MN got ruined, but then ther wer loads others who continues to watch it..and even more who BEGAN watching because somehow they found the cheeesy and OTT mayank and nupur much more entertaining to watch! ther wer many who quit right now when adhiraj and suhaani became a part of MJHT, but as time passes ther will b fans of this couple too..so the CVs get wat they want, attraction of an audience!

even ppl like me, despite cursing this show a LOT..still watch it..why? because of samrat and gunjan..because of some miracle that has retained my characters as they hav been...because I can relate to their life and love story in every which way, even tho I absolutely do NOT relate to MJHT as a whole..even tho I refuse to cal this a youth show, a rocking show.. hypocritical, eh? I speak of SaJan and I only watch SaJan scenes..because the remaining MJHT simply bores me! but then..the CVs get wat they want neway!
2) What are things that Made you watch MJHT?

initially jus the fresheness and liveliness abt every character..later on my bias turned towards SG..and it has not changed even now!

3) Can College Campus be expanded -- but not lose it's charm?

depends on what u can call abt expansion..I mean, I do not want these 19/20 yr olds ( yes, doesnt it seem odd to here, but thats how old they are.. and I hope they are shown that way too! ) to become married and hav kids n stuff..wrt college campus, like I mentioned above..mayb sum social issues or something might help!

4) What Plots have creatives not explored?

hav already mentioned that above!

5) What is your college life like, or was --- do you relate to it?

like I said, I absoulutely do NOT relate to MJHT as a whole..however I do relate to samrat and gunjan and their love story..hence thats wat keeps me hooked onto this show!

Can you add your experiences to MJHT for the concepts we plan to create?

well, I wud..and I wud also like to work as a SaJan writer .. I can mayb write a write up occasionally .. but cannot promise to b ther for every meeting and discussion...hence if ther are no other writers for SaJan, then I wud happily b the SG writer!

Hey yaa.. nice topic.. I hope the CV's read all the entries in this topic and learn from their mistakes. They can always ask the viewers about their opinions, ideas through polls, contest and views... I think they can take that risk if it is for the betterment of the show.And I also hope that our views are being considered as lots of time has been invested in this.
Questions:

1) Has MJHT lost it's charm that it began with?
Yes... MJHT has really lost its charm... Its not the MJHT that we saw when it started. I agree that as time passes, the concept also changes, but total deviation is not acceptable. But, this can very well be fixed by going back to the college campus..
a) Think about Characterization :- Yeah... they have totally messed up with the characters.. Gunjan's character has opened up.. this change is good... But, Nupur has become more quiet.. quite a contrast to the bubbly and chirpy Nupur, Mayank's sarcasam is missing, Sammy's flirtiness is missing.. (i know he is with Gunjan.. but then his flirty attitude an continue with Gunjan...).. DOdo and Benji are good with their one-liners, and Dia is good too. Overall, total mess up of Mayank and Nupur... They have lost the originality of these two characters.
b) Think about Plots:- The academic plot was good and so was the talent parade.. The drama sequence was excellent.. But, I really don't think that locket scene was needed and the Morena plot could have been handled better for Mayur scenes especially.

c) Think about Dialogues:- The dialogues are ok. but the credit goes to actors who with their dialogue delivery make it sound fabulous. The dialogues can be written more creatively where they can emphasize on the nature of the characters also.
d) Think about the Goals this show had, and they are at this current time:- Yeah initially the goals were defined and they did reach out to the audiences.. But, they have lost track now and I guess these goals have changed... The CV's need to get back to their goals they had set or else they may end up losing everything. Honestly, sometimes they were good.. but most of the times they have ended up messing the story line.. and so many bloopers.. I understand its a serial and we need to take things for granted.. but then too many of them cannot be overlooked... E.g.. How is it that Adiraj doesn't have a snap of Nupur.. whom he is suppossed to marry.. or how does Nupur suddenly land in Mayank's arms in the midst of the traffic.. Mayank doesn't even know she is running behind the bus... Its high time the CV's realise these mistakes... The direction is good.. But every area can be improved.. And rather than bringing in a new couple, they can probably start a new story between Benji and Dia.

2) What are things that Made you watch MJHT?
Ofcourse, one and only Mayur.. The charm and attraction of this couple has kept me glued on to this show.. They both are actors par excellence.. and the college based show was refreshing and new.. The concept of the show was good. One request to the producer/ director of the show.. Do not change the characters.. Let Arjun play Mayank, Rati play Nupur, Mohit play Sammy, Sanaya play Gunjan, Naveena plays Dia , Benji, Dodo.. Please don't change any of the characters and make us feel like not wanting to see the show. We don't want any new faces to play these characters..

3) Can College Campus be expanded -- but not lose it's charm?
College campus can be expanded but they need to do it in a way which will not sideline any of the lead actors. They need to give screen space to all of them equally. It's ok if they inroduce new ones for some time, but the leads should be given more importance.

4) What Plots have creatives not explored?
Well quite a few.. Since everyone's family is being considered, then why not Benji's, Mayank's and Dia's? They can have plots where these leads can be declared as all-rounders.. Not only do they excel in academics, but sports, music.. social awareness.. This show is mostly follwed by a lot of teenagers.. so they can show some plots where proper guidance can be given to the teenagers.. enjoyment is good but then studies are equally important. They can show a proper classroom with classes being conducted, exams are being held and much more can be done. The cast is amazing and the potential and talent is too good. I think the CV's are not utilising the full potential and the talent of these wonderful actors.

5) What is your college life like, or was --- do you relate to it?
My college life was very much normal.. had academics, sports, extra-curricular activities and loads of masti.. In my college we used to celebrate Independence day, Republic day, Teachers day and all festivals.. But why don't they show these things in MJHT? Why is the student-teacher bonding not shown in MJHT? They neglect the total bond between the student-teacher relationship.

Can you add your experiences to MJHT for the concepts we plan to create? I will let you as when I get some ideas.
