I loved 2nd epi...didn't like 3rd epi as much...like they cannot fool viewers.

Enjoyed first scene with Naina in the snow but that's cause Drashti is such a cutiepie!

When Amit says that people will see them together...like WTH, this is Austria, no one intrudes in other's affairs abroad. Also, no brother is so horrible...sati savitri sister just comes to Austria and is roaming around with luggage...its not realistic.

Drashti had said Naina's character aligns closely with hers but this is nothing like what Drashti is like! Muted intonation and tears...that sums up Naina in today's episode! I'm disappointed.

And the fake snow...like what even was that? AND WHY...

And of course the BGM...its ruining the whole show's vibe! Something needs to be done guys!

Also Raghav and the other characters are not behaving like NRIs. No NRIs wear saris at home and even the diction is super forced...And Naina is looking like Geet was when she came to Delhi...there's a big difference! Naina is a college lecturer in Delhi and her behaviour is not believable honestly!

The reason I say this is in hope of something better in future...I'm quite disappointed! Guys please give your feedback, negative and positive to Star Plus, Ekta, and involved parties! I don't see any nayi soch in this show!

Exactly
i am disappointed like never before.
The promos had me on such high spirits.
Drashti is so cute and pretty and her acting is fab but her character in the show is just destroying the charm of naina.

Please dont waste your time writing to Ekta .Both Ekta and Gul are arrogant producers ..they do what they like ...they hardly care abt content .
Infact i have a strong feeling that it is ekta who has changed naina's chara ...it is a 180 degrees turn to what was shown in promos.

Anyways i will watch it for sometime and soon stop (if it continues to be this boring)

P.S.- Everything in the show is illogical and regressive .

P.P.S - The background score is pathetic specially the tere naam version by an aunty who sings for every ekta shows right from 1st ekta show lolz

First of all it's an indian show so they won't show all talking and behaving likes actually like foreigner

In fact in movies like Queen or Pardes neither Kangana or SRK become like the English people they stay there made their own name without changing their liking or disliking just to show foreigners ...

It's serial it will take minimum 1week to stable ,balanced no one can judge seeing a single episode btw I liked today's episode I think it was better coz of 2 stranger's met at different country but their Dil is Hindustani

About Amit behavior he just want Naina to go back to India,or somewhere he dnt care abt her simple from his behavior ...

I am an actual NRI and so I'm stating what I think because whatever they are showing is just not realistic. And if Raghav was adopted and living in west his whole life, his dialect should also be so... And there's a big difference between Rani from Queen and Naina who is an English literature lecturer in urban Delhi...they cannot be compared. That's a movie and this is a daily soaped where viewers can be turned off.

And Amit is horrible but my issue is with Naina's behaviour! She doesn't know how to stand up for herself.

I agree show cannot be judged as a whole early but I will still voice my viewpoint!

Totally agree...the flavour of promos and shows is COMPLETELY different. I did not connect to the charas either today...was a bit disconnected as a viewer...it wasn't believable and that's an issue.

The lead protagonist should be strong and I'm not happy with what we've been shown of Naina as a character so far. Hope characterization changes for the better...

Watching for DD..so will keep watching but will also chime in my opinions LOL...

One other point...just my 2 cents!

In my experience it is important for leads to not get along or for their to be some conflict between them. Shows without that tend not to work. Ekta is fabulous in this department and of course Gul is the ambassador of love hate stories...there's a reason they work...shows like Ekta's BALH, Tiwari's Madhubala, or Gul's IPK.

Naina and Raghav's charas are both too goody goody...I said this in Raja Rani and am saying it again...A show will fail if there is no story of the leads...It cannot just be leads vs family or leads vs villain. A relationship should take a lot of time to develop between the leads and there should be a progression in that sense. Ekta typically sticks to this format too because it works! You need the tashan and fire to create chemistry! So although it was refreshing to see two genuinely good souls, in the long run, knowing Balaji shows are extended like rubber band, it will be very difficult for CVs to progress with show if the leads do not have any intrinsic conflict.

it's too early to say this is just the beginning and I liked it and I think we are waiting for the manifestation of nature then because if you remember began, and madhubala and GEET was at the beginning of this and I'm sure there will be a confrontation and not shutokou acti in the show there is always contradictions and conflicts between the characters which need to be solved and the show I think it will be successful because only 3 episodes have passed and I think heroes will be soon in India and that there will onovnom history😲

I quite like the dynamics raghav naina share...so so refreshing to see...also,just because they don't share love-hate relationship does not mean there will be nothing to develop in their relationship...it does not even mean that there can never be any conflict between them...it's also more realistic...do we just start fighting with the people we have just met for some insignificant,presumptious reason as shown in gul's shows or can we actually make efforts to be civil or helpful towards them?...I am glad raghav is the latter kind...if it was some typical 'intense' hero he would have blamed naina for her misunderstanding and wouldn't have tried to understand her at all...I just saw wednesday's episode and to me raghav naina are cute and refreshing enough to look forward to the next episode..they have spark without needing any love hate story

Itt is definitely refreshing...and they are no doubt great enough to look forward too...the actors aka Drashti and Arjun are the backbone of the show...but I think that a) the speed is too fast and b) the characters are really goody goody leaving little scope for the typical desi spa ce of misunderstandings which is what all shows run on...If indeed they can spin this refreshing approach to a high episode count that would be great but it doesn't happen often on TV. People enjoy watching those love hate scenes among the leads rather than seeing two goody goody leads fighting against a negative force. Rushing the love story and the lack of a complete story between the leads was one of the reasons ETR2 didn't click the way it should have despite a stellar star cast! it just became about the 2 leads battling odds against BRM...I don't want that happening here but Ekta is really excellent with balancing leads and other characters not like other producers so I'm sure she will have much better execution.

I second ur word 'its not nayi soch'.

Its typical Ekta show with same old cook up.

A man who promised to wait for his love just closes door on her face and chases her out looked illogic to me. and it is Austria and no one care with whom you are roaming around. something big will appear to eliminate him from Naina's life. he is not lead so he has to leave with some bad impression 😆

Raghav and Naina meeting is good. but again and again bumping on each other like he is the only person in that city. it show and done to build a impression on female lead and viewers. even then it is really too much. 😃

snow scene may be reshoot done in India after Ekta ordered some shots to be done again.😊

Raghav family scene is such a mess. all standing and doing their own business with typical indian family politics. even in india we have good manners of sitting and eating together. here it looked very funny.🤢

Raghav running around like he is the only servant and son at home. too much lift up given to character Raghav. looks too much unreal.

Veer elder son of that house is missing for 3 episodes.

after watching 3 episodes I feel most of the characters will disappear after sometime.
