I am so damn frustrated…I had prepared this huge write-up on word on my fav remix supporting cast and remix as a whole but before I could save it…d power went off😭…
So I have to re-write it all over again😭…but as it is the second time around…it might lack the previous enthusiasm and spirit so to speak….
Well wat to say abt Remix...it was as fresh as a newly blossomed daisy as unique as the handprint. I call the start of the show as revolution of sorts….coz it broke the protocol of saas-bahu and other kind of shows meant only for TV buffs...remix like the channel was meant for the thinking audience…..a niche audience who knew they deserved better and won't accept anything thrown in…..in the name of entertainment…..the first thing I noticed at the show is the minute detailing that went into show…not only did the looks and styling of each of the actors suited the personality traits of their characters but even the room they live in were styled according to their likes…like the angels' room had a poster of the pop band Blues.. and yuvi's had the pin-up girl Christina anguliera's poster..and well Ranveer and his roomies aman and varun had a more decent wall comparatively..lolz…plus tha hairstyle each one of them had done by the talented Adhuna Akhtar was a thing to die for…other than Tia..i think Vrinda and Pri had an amazing hairstyle…esp Pri..she looked much thinner with that kind of haircut rather than she does in KGGK…
Another thing I liked abt the show..that foursum though were the leads were not much different from their friends…the only thing that differentiated them from others were their attitude and the ability to dream big..otherwise more or less…all of them were quite similar…and thei friends be it meher, pri, Vrinda. Sid or aman and MP had a mind of their own and were not mere chamchas or chamchi's of the lead foursome..
Of the roomies my favourites were all except for Aman and Varun😕…I liked Aman's character but not his acting😕..and varun's character was good😛 but I didn't like his transition later….
Meher…was my most favourite…mainly cos she's bold and smart and very calm-headed…wat I liked abt her was though she was shown as a very loose type of girl..but still there was sum dignity to her….with sum justification too….she is a little mean but is genuinely a very nice girl…my fav scene of hers..are mostly when she's with her angels…those r very cute scenes…and also the ones where she flirts with sid initially in the beginning episodes and also later on when she used to date Nakul…also add to the fact that of all the first timers in the show..she acted the best and got her act right….right from the beginning…
Pri comes a close second…I think she got a lot of screen time comparatively….and she deserved it….her insecurity, her health problem made her character more real and authentic.. her struggle with bulimia was handled with the sensitivity needed….which was the highlight of the show…archana did a splendid job as pri..the way she gobbles up food and den gives this guilty look is so cute…she has a very pretty face….i always wanted sum nice guy to love pri like she deserves..i really hated aseem when he two-timed her and also that creep aditya..but thankfully pri bounced back…though her fixation on finding the right guy sounds terrible..but is very heart-touching too…to have such simple dreams..to love and be loved…most fo pri's scenes in season 1 were my fav..even those with Aseem…I liked her unique dialogue delivery..she had a very different style of talking
Nakul…among the guys..nakul's my fav…agreed he overacts a lot and his style of walking is very irritating..but he was the only comic relief in season 1 before sid took over the crown of the funny man….and I think Nakul was better….he was everyone's fav punching bag..and Nakul used to love the attention..lolz…
His self-boasts were a hoot and his style were sumthing else..i mean where can u find a guy who dips sandwiches into coffee before eating it..nakul did it during his date with tia..and that too with style….and he genuinely considers himself to be the coolest….my fav Nakul scenes were all his scenes with yuvi and sid..mainly with sid…they both together were a laugh riot…they fight they had over a stupid girl called sweety, and when Nakul comes to sid's rescue to break off from latika..and reads this breakup letter to her in front of a huge crowd…his expression's were hilarious….and yes the scene where yuvi, sid and Nakul go out on a blind date and get robbed by the girls….that was so hilarious..also his dating antics with tia were so funny…and those with meher too….also when he pays sum theatre actors to turn up as his rich parents to show off to his gf sweety…and dey actually turn up in a Mughal-e-azam costume….remix was not the same after Nakul aka habib left…
Sid….he started being funny and silly after Nakul left but I also liked his previous character where he was more sharper..though still foolish….he used to fall in and out of love quite easily..and the kind of girls he fell for went bad to worse…first it was meher..then Vrinda (both were good)..but then lathika…and sum girl called sweety..and then Ayesha Maam…and even the girl who used to assist Sonal Masi at the caf…yuk..there was no accounting for his taste….my fav Sid scenes were the ones where he gets letters from meher and gets all excited….but his scared of yuvi…and ya his scenes with Nakul…I think he looked awesum with Vrinda than Aman did…wish they were shown together…
MP's character was good and strong…I esp liked her will power and her ability to face anything alone…her scenes with Arjun were a pleasure to watch…my fav scene was hers was when Arjun catches her in the caf late at night…and literally assaults her and manhandles her..poor thing just sneaked in to have food..as she was hungry but Arjun humiliates her…but still MP didn't shed a single tear though she was humiliated and the way she dealt with him was commendable..
Vrinda…is ms. Goody two shoes…sees good in everyone..such people r really irritating in real life…coz u can never bitch abt sumone with them..lolz…no wonder MP couldn't stand her initially…but then again Vrinda is the only thing which used to bind the two rival groups…also at sum point she did manage to bring the band together….she dotes on her friends…irrespective of the fact whether they proved to be good friends with her…for eg. Pri…who troubled her so much..but Vrinda always liked her….her self-sacrificing love for her sister is also very touching..fav scenes…most of them…except for those with aman….sakshi also like archana and anu is a very good actor😃…
Of the senior cast..the best thing they did was to take veteran actors for such roles..be it ranveer's mom or yuvi' dad or jumbo …all three of them were very respected and talented as actors…and of course vinay jain, sonia kapoor and anoop soni were excellent too👏..post on them later😛
