Hello to all the members on the BBKD forum :)
I'm Hinal, and to be honest, I'm surprised I'm on here 😆
To start off, I personally found myself irritated after watching the initial promo thinking it'd be one of those silly shows where characters are there just for comic timing and nothing else. But I am happy to be proven wrong. From the first episode to the sixth (which by the way I binge-watched just now), I am enjoying pretty much every aspect of the show!
From the family squabbles in the Pant household to the tense dynamics of the (Raizada is it?) household for their daughter's future, it has been shown with a very real viewpoint.
Especially the Pant family! I have seen my share of familial drama myself, and needless to say, characters are - more often than not - in grey shades rather than the stereotypical and rigid positive or negative shade. Each character has their flaws, but they are still bound together in the end because they are a family. A dysfunctional family, perhaps, but even then, they are held together by a thread which seems to be strung by a few members in that family, namely Abhishek.
Being completely honest, Meera's "I just want to be happy" dialogue in the promo irked me. [I know, you might be thinking I get very easily irritated 😆 But the truth is, I've seen too many insanely idiotic and utterly stupid shows. I tend to judge Indian soaps very rigidly at first because I'd rather not put myself through that torture again 😛]
But the point is, my initial thought was that she was mindlessly wasting her life away just wanting to be happy. That was a very naive but irrational character portrayed in my eyes. But in the episodes so far, her character has managed to shape up as a naive but matured person. She isn't lazy, but she just doesn't know what it is she wants to do with life. As a soon-to-be-graduate, I'm exactly in her position and so after watching their family conversation, I find myself relating to her logic!
Now before I get carried away and write my own novel, I'm going to end the post right here 😆
So far, the 6 episodes have been a treat to watch, leaving me eager to watch many more!
Here's to the show BBKD :) A great beginning with a lot of potential!
Don't forget to leave your views/thoughts etc.
It'd be nice to get the forum active 😉
Lot's of love,
Hinal 😳
