ITV actresses who deserve to be in Bollywood? DT Note on Pg 16 and 23 - Page 11

Jennifer winget is a below average actor with below average face...but hot body...with goodluck and sympathy she become top actor..her role of maya is overrated.....she can play elder sister or bhabi role in movies

Nia sharma- she looks like transwoman for me...and overacts like anything

Helly shah- Good actor and has cute face...better than alia

SPMB was sh*t as a show. The starcast was the only saving grace baring Shaheer.

So you stopped following HD religiously after they showed Indira's supposed death? did you follow any track post-leap? When Rishi had affair with Indira's identical? or when Indira was shown to be mentally unstable and her daughter brings her back from Lahore? Gosh! kiya bana diya itne acche show ko. It had become so messy! HD should've gone offair after Indira's death or they should've never brought her back from grave. It'd have been a much better ending Rishi moving on with Zara but the bull crap they had shown Rishi doing to Indira after he finds her out she's alive. That was a nightmare. None could anticipate the disaster. Agree Rishi was quite different male hero back in those days although I had a bias for Indira but I did love Rishi a LOT too. But the drastic change they showed in his character postleap was sooo unexpected. None could see that coming. I mean he loved kids so much but he used to act like a harsh stepfather with his own daughter (she was pain in the a*s tho) based on some filmsy reason. And Rishi was like Meri Indira Meri Shrimaati jee My this My that... what not when Shweta was there even when Zara was there & he was having affair with her he used to be all like My Shrimaati jee. But when original Indira comes back, he agrees to send Indira to mental asylum because of Zara's ultimatum! Damn. Kaha gaya woh pyaar achanak se? how could he do that to the woman he had pinned & craved and longed for 8yrs just to see a glimpse of hers and was living barely on her memories? He used to worship the ground Indira walked on. He couldn't see anyone doing injustice with Indira. Idk if you've watched those episodes. Then remarrying Zara in Indira's presence, romancing Zara and were about to have their wedding night after Indira came back into his life and in her house was so disrespectful for the love he shared with Indira. He acted so selfishly and like an ungrateful opportunistic loser, doesn't matter if he got married to Zara before he found out about Indira's existence or he wasn't legally married to Indira anymore. None could tolerate Rishi choosing Zara over Indira as his love & the main reason was only because of Indira's mental condition which is truly sad not because he felt he was in love with Zara. Zara was the better option for him at that time And his choosing to love Zara was utter bull crap cause he'd not have given her a second look if she didn't have Indira's face & characteristic features. He had admitted that several times himself that's why it was beyond me why did CVs did Rishi so dirty? And funniest part was they ended their marriage by turning Zara evil in following 2 weeks. 🤣 If cvs intended to reunite Rishi with Indira why did they show such idiotic stuffs? How ridiculous! Rishi going back to loving Indira & claiming rights on her as her husband was even more absurd. Indira went from his zimmedaari to love all over again. What BS! I so wanted Indira to not get back with Rishi at all and kick his a*s out of her life cause I knew for sure even if Zara hadn't turned negative, he'd have gone after Indira after she gets her memories back & becomes mentally and physically normal. Indira should've ended up with someone who'd love her and accept her irrespective of her mental condition.

Also, don't you think logically speaking if you love someone more than your life you'd shower love on her aakhri nishaani all the time. The reason Rishi used to give for not giving fathers love to her daughter was nonsensical. She was part of Indira so idk. Keeping everything aside his character had become way too selfish and insensitive postleap. He couldn't see anything beyond his own happiness & love-life.

Ishq Mein Marjawaan is engaging to watch till they replaced Aalisha's negative character with Niaa talentless Sharma! You should watch it just for Aalisha's performance alone IMO.

Rati's terrific at body language acting too. In Hitler Didi the way she captured Indira's mannerisms, her posture, Hitler pose and her hands around her arms. Great stuff.

Pooja's hindi diction is sooo clear & soothing to ears. Her performance as Draupadi and it's impact is everlasting and unprecedented. It's the best performance I've ever seen on TV.

Hitler didi used to telecast when we only had one TV at our home. I remember when they showed Indira's death, my Mother renounced the show😆.

She was like ab nahi dekhna yeh show. After that I never bothered to watch that show again and going by your account thank god, I didn't.

I have good memories of the show. I would love to keep it that way. Then we moved to Star Plus after that😵. Even worse.

We had successfully stopped following any show(except a few mythological shows) after Hitler Didi till Zee started Zindagi channel and got us hooked on Pakistani show.

Nia is sooo overrated man. I get it that some people might find her hot but I still don't get her appeal.

I so wish Pooja to come back. Now that was one hot woman ( in my eyes) and she was so talented. The scene where Arjun brings his second wife home to meet Draupadi, Pooja's expressions are still etched in my mind. That was one powerful scene. And there are so many others. When she gets to know that Pandavas have bet her in their game. Or the scene where she asks revenge for her disrespect and confront the Pandavas

They are not easy scenes but not once I find her overdoing them. Despite all heavy costumes, there was an air of ease in her work.

I might start watching Ishq mein Mar Jawaan after I complete Adaalat's first season. KD Pathak is my first love after all. And BTW I noticed yesterday Alisha also was part of the show. She played the accused in one of the episodes and looked so beautiful❤️.

maya wasn't perfectly written but even in the poorly written scenes jenny excelled. dd has never performed that well even in the early stages of her shows when the character is consistent. even as madhu she occasionally gave forced a unnatural expressions. and as geet she always went a little ott.

again i am not saying jenny is the best on tv. she is far from that. but as a whole i find her more natural and less effortless than dd in her shows. even in her not so great performances.

Agree. Same with Zoya, the script was very badly written, despite that she did justice to it. She is extremely natural in emotional scenes (Jenny).

Only on this forum i read opinions how a mediocre Alisha's portrayal as Tara is better than that of Jw's maya. While BH and Maya has been hailed as the best by both critics and every ITV actor actress. Keep hyping the underdogs, that wont take away JW's goodwill and talent.

Jennifer Winget is undoubtedly the most respected and the loved actor of ITV, not only ITV male or female actors’, she is the favorite of many child actors as well! The PHs, directors, even so many South Indian actresses have publicly praised Jennifer! She is not popular and admired in India only, but in many foreign countries as well (I myself am not an Indian!)...there is a reason why she is a role model of many existing and upcoming actresses and the dream co-actor of so many male actors! There is a reason why Maya is a household name and a character every actress in ITV wants to play while also acknowledging that nobody else would be able to play it better than Jennifer Winget! There is a reason why Sanjay Leela Bhansali went back to Jennifer Winget for Kumud even after she dropped the project due to some contract issues...there is a reason why her first web series became a massive success...and the reason for all these is her dedication and super-connectivity to the audience through her amazing performances! But do I need to shove these facts down anyone’s throat? No! Because I understand that acting is subjective and no person is universally liked! But what I don’t like is the notion of calling everyone one doesn’t like overrated and downplaying their achievements!

P.S. I was not even going to comment on this topic but your comment plus the extra time I have right now made me comment here 😂

@BOLD You stole my words, i happen to stumble upon some of the opinions here and i couldn't stop laughing. Like you said, she's the most admired actress on tv and a role model for practically every ITV actress. I am yet to name an itv actor who hasn't named JW as their favorite. She gets such unconditional love from across her fraternity. Even some national winning south actors have been following her insta offlate, such is an admiration for her work.

Not a fan of jenny but this recent year's jenny has done n gotten the best projects n she has given her best n that's a fact like it or not so the most deserving is jenny at the moment

The only ITV actress i really admire is JW. Rest are meh.

Wow this is a fun thread. TM,please make more TV related topics.😆 Damn, I really miss those TV fan wars. Aaj kal toh almost all the TV forums are dead.

No offence to fans but what a joke😆😆.

Maya a household name!wow😆.

I mean it's ok you are her fans but being so ignorant is🤦‍♀️..conduct a survey and you will see hardly 5 trp audience would know maya..but they would know gopi bahu,ishimaa,shivanya,bela or akshara.

Do you think audiences’ extreme negative reaction online resulted in low TRPs?

I don't think the real audience of the Indian heartland, which BARC is measuring, is the same audience that's reacting to the previous season. The online audience never translates into ratings, therefore their negativity also does not translate into low or high ratings! For instance, Ishqbaaaz is extremely popular and loved online but rating wise it's not No. 1.

The show (IPKKND) was not watched enough by the audiences that networks measure, therefore the decision was taken to shut it. Online popularity or negativity does not impact the ratings much actually. No matter how popular the show is online it doesn't become a highly rated show and no matter how much negative chatter is there online, it doesn't result in low ratings. IPKKND simply didn't do well in BARC ratings.

@Bold and @underlines sums it up all online popularity and trps means jackshit and this is coming from a woman who has some of biggest shows under her name on trps and online as well.

I'd rather believe a producer who knows what goes into making a show than online fans who thinks their show is a huge success coz of the online hype (Jaisi hai yaariyan/DMG) etc😆
