Aahil and Sanam have grown on me...

A year ago i was not happy with what the writers did with the QH1 regarding the Asad-Zoya jodi (it was that ridiculous mini-skirt episode)...I was recently trying to catch up with old episodes this weekend and despite watching the ever handsome KSG, I could not recapture all the Asad-Zoya magic I loved when I initially watched the show. As a fan of the show, I can tell you, I really loved this jodi. Not sure how I am going to feel when I see Asad (Not KSG...but this shows how much i identified Asad as KSG) played by another person...

When the new QH started; I definitely did not welcome the new actor and loathed the actor who was cast in the part. However, despite his looks the guy can act and has fit in well with his character. Additionally, I have began to enjoy watching the conflict between him and Sanam enough that you can welcome their love-hate romance and actually find it entertaining. I believe that over the years the producers have finally realized that viewers do not mind the love-hate aspect but they do not welcome the unnecessary abuse inflicted on the female lead and how it can justify any potential romance. that type of writing is very pre-1970s - the time when the writers of the show were engrossed in horrifically bad Mills and Boon and Harlequin romances.
I had not watched the show for several days and I started catching up on episodes from when Sanam drops her badi ammi off and Manisa's house...and I simply could not stop watching...I finally did after the ladoo episode and will allow for some episodes to pile up...I have not been so hooked on watching a show like this in such a long time!

The writing is good; and the characters well-developed. I might not be a fan of the actor's looks but I can tolerate him. Someone needs to still work on his horrifically bad wardrobe...even better, we have a lot LESS of the annoying Khala and Khaloo...

I love Latif - more of her the better ;-)

I quit watching QH after KSG left. And I started watching it again after Karanvir Bohra joined 😆
He plays naughty boy/grey/villainous characters very well. As for his looks...it's the hair...😆...I don't know if you've seen his previous drama (Dil Se Di Dua Saubhagyavati Bhava)...but he looks a lot better clean shaved and with a bit longer hair.

You can see a lot of touches of IPKKND in the new edition of QH.
But I haven't been able to complete warm up to Aahil. Giving him ASR's BG music doesn't make him measure up to the guy. Aahil is way too loose, and way too cocky for no reason. I could have overlooked all that if he hadn't cheated with the ladoo bit...I mean come on chore ke bhi kuch asool hote hain... 🤔

What I do love about the new QH are the girls...Sanam and Haya.

While I never warmed up to Zoya (couldn't stand her, and never understood how Asad did)...I absolutely love Sanam. She's just the perfect combo of her parents.

And I'm totally fascinated by Haya...the actress is doing such a good job emoting without any dialogue... 👏.

So I watch with eager interest, to see what fate and Gul Khan has in store for these 2 young girls...the heroes so far are not so impressive...just my POV.

despite his looks?


Oh my!


But ditto on every other point! (Though I kinda enjoy Khala Khalu at times)


I love his hair.


And yes his looks too.

I agree; I think it might be the hair...but I actually think the facial hair suits him...

I would you not get mad but i still have not watched IPKKND yet! I have not even watched the other Gul Khan drama.

I like the looseness...I've known guys like him and the charm with these guys is that women like them because they have a personality that makes them likable...i hope to see that developed in this character...such a charm that he becomes irresistible...it is not looks but an ability to make people laugh and the writers have to work on developing this further...

Now the reason he did that was not that he was a chor but because he wanted to make sure that he could get Sanam to do her part and then get rid of her. he did not want to deal with her anymore - she was an annoyance...and that's what i welcome as a change in many dramas...most times the guy sees the girl and the first meeting is a long pause where the guy and girl stare at each other for half an hour and the audience is told...it is now love at first sight...this is SO boring...

If a love-hate develops that's fine...but over time what attracts to people is that they get along with each other...they actually talk about stuff and during that time they eventually find they like each other...they can bicker and argue all the time...but they like each other and do things for each other...that's what makes a good jodi...

What I do love about the new QH are the girls...Sanam and Haya.

While I never warmed up to Zoya (couldn't stand her, and never understood how Asad did)...I absolutely love Sanam. She's just the perfect combo of her parents.

And I'm totally fascinated by Haya...the actress is doing such a good job emoting without any dialogue... 👏.

i was discussing that with my sister; sanam has grown on me faster than zoya. while i did like zoya, the writers destroyed the character by presenting her as an excessively rude individual and confidence does not equate the rudeness. i find the writers need to introduce some humor into sanam's personality - a wit that is missing. i like her determination and self-confidence. haya is fine and the actress to me is mediocre...but a lot better than a lot of these new actresses that come on the scene.

the key of making a strong female lead is to make this a person whom you want to be friends with...someone who is a good listener and is someone with whom you want to engage in strong conversation...a stimulating individual...unfortunately, that's often missing in many of the female leads on Indian television. it does not have to be forced or unreal...

So I watch with eager interest, to see what fate and Gul Khan has in store for these 2 young girls...the heroes so far are not so impressive...just my POV.

Their jodi does nothing for me...it's not even started...and what i saw has not done anything for me yet...nothing new...of course you cannot stand her husband...he is a pervert, a leech and evidently a man who intends to violate the poor girl if given the chance to be a lone for her...he already tried - TWICE.

I hope Haya tells sOMEONe - I hate dramas where people encourage the female lead to keep things of this kind a secret.

Firstly, I love Latif as well. He ... err She is HILARIOUS!

I was actually disappointed that KVB was selected when news of it was first out AND I had no expectations from the leap ( God know How many times I've repeated this statement lol ) but I am actually pleasantly surprised with the result. Not only am I loving SaHil, I am loving KVB as well. He fits the role effortlessly. The wardrobe needs a little working on at certain times but KVB carries it well and makes it look good making me come to the point that I really like his look; the hair and the stubble, goes with the character.

Haya and Rahat would have made for an excellent parallel story me thinks but the actor aka Rahat need to work on his expressions. But perhaps I need to give him some time before judging.


@ummesulaiman. Ahil does not have ASR's bg but the revised version of AAK's bg.
