ITV actresses who deserve to be in Bollywood? DT Note on Pg 16 and 23 - Page 9

Used to be a big Drashti Dhami fan, still find her gorgeous. But when talking about being successful in Bollywood I'd put my money on Jennifer Winget. I think she is more of the whole package than any other ITV actress.

DivyaDrishti is mocked like anything on SNS! lol.

Rati did a cameo there? woah. Can you link me to that episode?

Man you should watch Rati in Hitler Didi to see her full potential as an actress. It was one of the best performance ever on ITV. HD was an unique show & had easy breezy vibe and perfect blend of romance, drama, comedy, entrainment, emotion, intensity when the show started off in its initial stage. MJHT is also a very very good show till the track I've seen so far. Rati stole the show and her character Nupur had touch of Geet from JWM. Sanaya was the other lead of that show.

Drashti was unbearable as Nandini. Majority of viewers panned her acting. She only vibrated and shook her head throughout the show. No comparison with Aditi. Each & every actor overshadowed Drashti in Silsila.

Pooja was phenomenal as Draupadi. She has set a benchmark with that performance. Next level acting. She left everyone in awe in her debut show itself. None could believe she delivered a performance of such high caliber without any previous acting experience. I'm still so salty that Pooja didn't get a single award for that epic performance. She's class apart. She did Mahakali with SRJ (Krishna of SPMB) after that. She was excellent there too. But Pooja is super lazy. As much as I disliked SPMB because of unauthentic ridiculous storyline, I do feel baring Shaheer Sheikh the entire starcast was top notch especially Pooja, Aham and SRJ.

Rashmi as Tapasya imo is the best performance ever in a negative role on ITV alongwith Simone Singh as Sakshi Goenka. Rashmi isn't that great in positive roles but she still does far far better job than most of the top ITV stars.

I used to follow KHKT initially but later on it went the same cliched track. And Sonakshi's character didn't have that spunk. They shared a great chemistry that's it. KVG was the saving grace. I'm glad he got his due through that series but Dipika toh I don't consider her even an actress LMAO! I'm stunned to see people's stupidity on Twitter how Dipika's non-existent acting is praised to sky high for playing Sonakshi. ITV fans are so gulible who confuse likeable on-screen character is equivalent to good acting for them. Dipika sucks man!

That show is considered a pathbreaking type of show just like Bepannah, Ishqbaaz fans used to overhype those faltu shows to the moon.

Divyanka I'm not fond of her acting style either. Too dramatic. Too irritating. Monotonous. Zero variation. Monotonous. KP is a decent actor tho. Well Tv awards are sold anyway for Ekta camp only so what's so surprising in DT winning undeserving trophies year after year. They mostly give awards to their channel star or someone from Ekta camp. DT won critics award last year too over Aditi as Mauli 🤣 DT is overrated as f-ck.

Shivangi Joshi. Oh god I've dealt with many of her rabid fans on Twitter. She's got great amount of SM fans lol idk why & how. She's neither a looker nor even a decent actor.

I can't stand Hina either. Lousy actress. And her overacting as Komolika 🤪 She won too many awards for that cringefest performance. Talk about standards.

LOL. True but I share the same opinion on Parth too. Erica isn't even fit for supporting roles. She's sooo basic looking. Has no star appeal. But she was good in KRPKAB because of good direction I guess.

Jennifer is like andho mein kaana raja 😆 I actually like Surbhi Chandna's comic timing. The best one since Ragini Khanna IMO. And has great screen presence too & attractive. Emotional scenes mein needs to improve otherwise decent.

I like Sriti. She emotes really well. I've known her from Saubhagyavati Bhava days only. She was amazing as Janhvi. Wish she gets better roles. She's quite underrated I feel alongwith Kratika Sengar. What was the name of the show you are talking about where Sriti acted in?

Sanaya is decent actor. But she never makes me feel cringe and makes idiotic scenes bearable with her charm. She is a star and has a very starry presence too. I have a soft spot for her. Her comic timing is really good.

I don't like Surbhi Jyoti at all 🤧

Yeah that they are being better than the likes of Janhvi, Ananya, Sara is no big feat. They're no benchmark anyway!

Divyadrishti is honestly bashed too much on social media I'd say.it wasnt that bad..I mean I'm not saying it was GOT level or something. Itv supernatural shows are so unbelievably crazy and DD was in line with that..but it was far better than the horror that is naagin4 right now.Dd had a unique plot and the actors did full justice to it as per itv standards.

Check out the very 1st episode of divyadrishti..rati is in that episode,a very impressive cameo. (Link:Check out Sisters with Divine Powers on Hotstar! https://www.hotstar.com/1000230342)

Will surely check out HD.yes I've heard great reviews about mjht..and nupur too.

I loathed drashtis character in silsila..lol.so I thought she was effective.she was so one note i agree..same expression of a bechari🤦‍♀️.

Yup pooja was quite impressive. Yeah SRJ was good but I liked him more in Devon ke dev Mahadev in life ok..than sp mahabharat. I guess no one can really come anywhere close to nitish bharadwaj maybe that's why.shaheer was a DISASTER..arjun is the most important character and he ruined it! Yes aham sharma,the guys who played bheem,duryodhan,abhimanyu were good.

I agree.rashami was very good in uttaran.simone Singh oh yes!she was so classy in that show on sp.what an actor!

Lol khkt,ishqbaaz pathbreaking 😆😆😆😆.

Dt was so monotonous. Winning a critics award over aditi dev sharma was HEIGHTS!🙄.

dt,shivangi joshi(I wonder how did she even get a lead role🙄)..and hina all lousy monotonous actors.

Hina was horrible as komolika..but compared to shivangi..she did a better job in ye rishta show.

I guess Erica's bad acting makes parth look better!

I have seen many people like only either of the 2 surbhis.😆🤪.yeah surbhi chandna is ok in her comedy scenes..but nowhere near sanaya.and I vote for surbhi jyoti...she has impressed me doing a variety of roles and she excels in intense/emotional scenes..chandna makes me cringe in emotional scenes.i guess we can agree to disagree in case of the 2 surbhis.

Sriti is really good.it was a show in imagine tv named jyoti.her character name was sudha.

Jenny is way overrated for sure.

Yup nepos are no benchmark but they are being hailed as the next big things so yes all these actresses are anyday miles better than them.

Based on looks there are a TV lot who can give bollywood nepo kids a run for their money but acting only few and sadly majority of them are past prime as per bollywood standard like Sakshi or Shwetha.

Rati I haven't watched much to judge but have to say Beyhadh and Jennifer winget have to be the most overrated show and tv actress respectively. Beyhadh writing was as bad as any other itv soap but hailed only because it was was/is being sold as female grey centric show and jw lacks rage and maya was one tone too. Alisha did a better job at being grey in immj show than jw as maya.

Alisha >>> Jennifer anyday for me.

Tamanna was good but Fox stopped the show mid way I cheered for her when she left her douchebag husband to pursue her dreams.

I don't know drashti have not seen her work but sanaya's show Bir garip was a huge hit here but till date I cannot wrap my head around the hype the show got. It was so bad typical 4lions rehash 🤣

I liked ADS in Ganga but the story did not impressed me much.

Have not seen Rati Pandey and Sana sayyad's work but that Sana chick looks cute.

The ML of the show puts me off evertime he is onscreen.

Rati do not have any fan following here so there are 0 chances of her show getting dubbed in Turkish.

Tere liye starring harshad chopda and Anupriya Kapoor was also a big success here I loved HC and AP but the girl vanished after the show

You don't understand Hindi? So all the series you watched were dubbed in Turkish language?

Oh man I LOVE LOVE LOVE TERE LIYE SO MUCH! A short series with everlasting impact. I still can't believe it came from Ekta's production. 🤣

Taani - Anurag are among my most favourite ITV pairs of all time. They didn't butcher their characters or lovestory like most of fav pairings story had been butchered after a point. I'm thankful to CVS for that lol. But Had Anurag died at the end of the show it'd have been the fitting end to the theme & title of the show IMO.

But baring Alia I don't see any of the new lot of starkids are being accepted or considered good actresses by majority of public on SM.

Btw what happened to Imagine TV channel?

Here's the 1st episode of HD. That first episode is so iconic. All the dialogues and presentation was so different and had a great vibes. Later it went downhill after 5-6 months like every other ITV show but still likeable. But the horror took place after 2-3 months postleap ruined the entire plot & base of the show!

https://youtu.be/5z9GphsrJec

All the episodes are available on YouTube except episode no. 33 & 37 which you can watch on Zee5 app. and 223 episode is also missing but it's nowhere to be seen.

Do tell me your review on this thread after watching the initial episodes. :)

After watching the shows I do understand some Hindi words (Hindi and Turkish have 9000 similar words that might be one reason as well)

I have seen some Indian tv classics like shanti,kora kagaz, hum panch, Hubahoo,Hasratein, Kurukshetra, Swabhimaan (Kitu gidwani was the FL) on TFB before it was forced to shut down coz of copyright infringement.

A Local TV channel do air the dubbed versions of Hindi shows from time to time but Tere liye and Is pyar ki were the only shows that saw unprecedented success, Humsafars (Harshad chopda) started off well but the numbers dipped by the end still it did way better than

Any of the recent shows)

@BOLD agree but you know I am a sucker of happy endings and I am glad the show had a happy ending.

Some most popular shows of India aired and tanked in turkey are Dil mil Gaye, qubool hai (it started shortly after Is pyar that might be the reason it flopped) and Beyhadh (might be coz we have a a far better show on obsession than beyhadh called Bir bulut olsam)

P.S. Had initially intended to edit for a friend as she has been an SI fan for long but since TM did the honours of quoting it I shall let it remain. Also friendship should be above any actor or actress..just plugging it in there!

Sanaya and decent actor? The woman has same 2 asthmatic expressions in every show of hers. Heard not many people went to watch her disaster horror movie either and suna hai usme bhi asthmatic expressions bharpur the. Reality is she cannot even be classified as below average forget decent actor lol. All of her male co actors have been far far better actors than her, starting from Barun right up to Ashish.

LOL. you're mistaken if you think I'm fan of Sanaya or her acting as such. I don't stan anyone from ITV. I do have favorites and for acting only. I am fond of Sanaya cause of her looks and offscreen persona, not for her acting. and I find her decent, didn't say she's good or great. Everyone's entitled to their opinion. I have mentioned her weak points too and she has her flaws too but she doesn't make me feel cringe even in the most ridiculous scenes. I have a soft spot for her but not a fan.

Agree about Ashish. He's a versatile actor but Barun oh please. I used to watch IPK in bits and pieces only to see Sanaya although they shared sizzling chemistry but Barun is okaish as an actor. Sanaya was miles more enjoyable to watch on-screen than Sobti.

Watch these clips of Pooja as Draupadi who haven't seen Pooja's acting before.

Pooja as Draupadi was once in a lifetime performance especially in the disrobing sequence. The best acting I've seen across in TV medium.

I have a soft spot for her but not a fan. You need to take a chill pill Drashti fan. I can understand the bitterness of DD fans after her disastrous performance in Silsila.

Well she is easily the most cringiest ITV actress and her disastrous asthmatic hyperventilations in the name of acting in RR and IPK are proof of just how bad her acting skills are. I couldnt even get through one scene of RR without cringing at her heavy breathing. On this forum only people were saying how terrible she was in her movie and had the same hyperventilations there too apparently.

Barun has already proved his mettle by now and I don't think there is even a comparison . Not just his acting in Asura but even in Tu Hai mera Sunday he was well appreciated by most critics . Most other TV actors chose D grade films for entry to Bollywood but he was the only one that actually choose good concept oriented films . Yes the films didnt work but his acting was appreciated. Most of my friends back in college used to watch IPK for him as they found him really attractive and were crazy over ASR.
