Word to your review, Fary.
Even I was remembering how the first epi of DMG was way better than this in establishing characters. Lol such irony when DMG starts looking better 🙈😂
Yes, it was all coming across as very rushed and forced. The writing felt quite ham handed in terms of execution.
Re: Sets, yes the hospital set was nice and bigger compared to the smaller DMG set but the one wooden sculpture of Hanuman carrying the Sanjivani booti hanging from the ceiling was cracking me up 🤣
Namit was the saving grace of the epi. Never thought I’d say that. Lol
Poor SC has been utterly shortchanged with this character. 🤷♀️ I can’t decide if it’s that the character is not suiting her and she’s struggling to execute it it’s just the overall execution that’s bad and her acting skills can’t salvage such a badly written character.
It can’t be that she can’t play a quiet character...she already did it nicely in QH. But she isn’t jiving with this badly written Ishaani and frankly I’m not sure anyone can play such an OTT character and make it likeable. The preaching is a MAJOR turn off. What are ppl thinking? This is 2019....people have even less patience for such faltu preaching now.
Also so ironic...the PH that invented the standard template of leads ki nok jhonk on Star One can’t execute it dhang se anymore. What WAS that, man? Itna forced and sudden....one second she’s screaming at him for being a chep, next second calmly giving him a chocolate 🤷♀️
And her so called germophobe trait was also lamely shown. She supposedly can’t stand ppl touching her but she was happily grabbing the collar of the guy. No consistency 🤷♀️
