Sumiko- Review

Whatever the TRPs and the turns and twists in the plot ,the whims of the Cvs

The team has kept up its standard in acting and grown

Mihir has over time become a fine tuned actor

Romi without letting go his Bindas light demeanour has risen to every occasion

Mrs Iyer is almost perfect .Her transition from Kanjeevaram to all Inda traditional sarees without losing the essence of her personality is notable

Mrs Bhala - same at heart but moves with the times - not letting go of the basic nature scripted for her

Mr.Iyer is indeed a character actor and very subtle in displaying his versatility

Mr.Bhalla so very steadfast just as his character sketch so also his acting

Ashok Khanna the evergreen villain- never fails in his performance

Shagun has shown many hues but never needed to camaflage her character - She could do it without using props of any kind

Simmi is a low profile role but gives it full justice

Bala has been crushed because of his circumstances many times and somewhere down the way lost his initial bounciness- perhaps the Cvs want it that way

Vandu's vibrancy cannot be suppressed and even the stern collars she wears at times does not take that away- a very good actress

We miss little Shrave - he was so awfully sweet

And The Old Adi who looked as bright as the sun

Now the new Ruhi is making a good effort

Same can be said about Aliya

Adi in the Oder avatar is very good when emoting but hs rant and rave for Aliya does suit his real character which has been shaped by Ishita's influence during his formative years- anyway if the Cvs want him to behave so undecorously what can he do

Neelu is like a rock and plays her art beautifully

Suraj had a winsome air about him specially his soft corner for Vandu- good actor indeed

Nidhi does as she is directed

Mani is really true friend -- of earnest acting

Pihu/Ruhi is gifted,talented and her act does not sag ,always fresh and when she is happy so are we

Ishita and Raman are par excellence

One feels they act because its almost like they just love to act together

Well, a delightful cast

Hope The CVs can once again match their story to the story of the fine acting these actors are displaying and playing out day in day out
