Erica quitting?? What about Shaheer? - Page 12

Even Shaheer wouldn't make his way up to here if he didn't get a chance. Not that he had a readymade fanbase right from the beginning. Lol

Shaheer hina all these actors were casted opposite newbies, so they made a name for themselves on their own merit. Even in mahabharat inspite of being the weakest link he gained huge popularity not only in India but also in Indonesia, he became more popular than anyone else from the cast. Kuch toh hoga na usme that inspite of performing so badly in mahabharat according to some still he is one of most popular and successful actors. Even shivangi and mohsin for that matter weren't much popular before yrkkh and were relatively newbies of one show old, but they got so much fame because of their talent.

There's a difference between getting popular with their first few shows only where all new actors are casted and getting popular after working with popular actors. Most of Shah's Co actors come under second category where they get some advantage because of his popularity but then a solid fan base is creating solely on their acting capabilities and other things.

Like you said I wasn't planning to reply to you but one last time.

Like I said even I didn't like his unprofessional behavior but due to lockdown the shooting of these two shows overlapped. Like actresses, actors can't wear wig and shoot for shows.

Also I hated his unkempt look throughout the last few months but it doesn't change that fact that even if he kept that shabby look the shows trp was still the same. Even if he would have performed better the trps would have been the same.

Okay I understand actors say few things for their good image. But there are so many actors who are working in the bhagya and yrkkh and other shows since forever even though there's no storyline to it and its going around in circles and theres no character growth and scope to perform. They are getting paycheck and their fans are unhappy that their potential is wasted but they don't care.

In short I'm saying is it's just not shaheer who is working for money but even other popular actors are working for money in the same gisa pita shows for years now. This show would end in couple of days but their shows would still run on air forever.

What the outcome may have been if he did all those things we would never know because he did not do them. The show could still fail because of the pathetic writing even if he gave his 100% here. The show might have done relatively better if the writers could develop a Devakshi centric track & he was available to shoot adequate amount of time for that. We would never know. My point only was that he is not that committed or invested in this show & certainly not doing favours on fans & PH like you are trying to project.

I agree with you totally on that last paragraph. I believe I am also saying the same thing. There's no need of argument over that.

See you in some other thread/forum. Take care 😊

He is working on two shows and not doing justice to this one... doing his job badly...yet you expect me to appreciate him? Mera chacha mama nahi lagta hai.

As I said in my first reply to you...there are characters in this show who were given the least screen space yet they were convincing. Shaheer ki toh unse zyada scope thi but we was not good with most parts given toh him. Bas yahi keh rahe the hum and you brought the whole new angle to that discussion with how he is managing two shows, sacrificing his time baby, being loyal to the production house by staying, his online fans helping his female co-stars, etc.

Erica is quite new no? Uske baare mein bhi zyada nahi suna except saw that she's playing Prerna. That was enough reason to not watch her show. This is my first show where I'm watching her perform and she's doing a great job in most of the scenes given to her. If she is unhappy with how her character is shaping up...she has all the rights to quit. She's not doing anything unethical.

Bhai behen main kahan bol rahi hu ki uski Jay Jay kaar karo.

I was just trying to put out a different perspective why he is not quiting the show. Regarding him not performing well pehle bhi bol chuki hu his character has been the worst affected this season. Even though he isn't shooting for pr 2 since many days he is neither given ss nor any scope to perform. Ye romance karna, sabka khayal rakhna, sab manage karna he has done in his previous shows as well. So there's not much effort from his side.

Aur bashing toh yahan bhi hoti hai, just because he posted a reel from krpkab set with ankita he was judged for promoting pr 2, just because he was with hina during an award function people started speculating about sharicas offscreen bond. He posted pictures of krpkab cast on his page then too people complain about him not promoting the show.

Yes an actor has full right to quit if they aren't satisfied with the way things are shaping up but there are many actors who are still working in the long running shows like bhagyas and yrkkh even though these shows are just going around in circles since forever. Ye show toh khatam ho jaayega since its a limited series, shaheer isn't quitting the show. But if Erica has decided then she might have thought about it. Anyways this season like for many others doesn't exist for me all.

I really don't think there's an added advantage for newbies to get casted opposite to an famous actor, except for learning new things from their experience. Idk if shaheer's fans are 'buttering' up Sana as well because she's almost the FL anyway😆 She is not doing a good job in her part & hence, even though she's casted as a third lead in the show with well known actors, she doesn't have a well defined fanbase, apparently. As far as I know, even Erica was very much disliked during initial krpkab days because she got casted opposite an experienced dude, until she proved herself during the Sona's falling in love phase. If you've watched Beyhadh, you'd know how terrible kushal is as an actor, & he wasn't praised just because he got casted opposite Jenny. Lol their chemistry also sucked big time, there certainly wasn't any unnecessary praise showering during those days. Basically, no one is gonna blindly praise a newbie because they got casted opposite a famous actor.

About MB, I haven't watched it but a lot of my friends immensely praise Pooja Sharma for performing as Draupadi. She hasn't done any show post that, apparently, but the impact created is much visible even today. Shaheer has been very ambitious & has kept doing shows post MB, & hence, the hype is there (& well deserved as well). Khair chodo, mai is topic se thak gayi😆

Shaheer was mediocre in SP MB but he was really good in S1 IMO. Dev had some really good scenes (given the kinda scenes leads get on TV, Dev had so much more scope & Shaheer did well. My favourite performance remains what he pulled off in the Dev ki deewaangi track. There are so many scenes in that track where Shaheer and Erica were really good. That office scene where Sonakshi comes to meet him, the confrontation with Ishwari about the horoscope when Dev walks off, Sonakshi confronting Ishwari & of course the final engagement sequence- I think they both were good/great in a lot of these scenes. Of course credit goes to the writers/director/music director to a large extent but these two managed to do well. They aren't as bad as it's made out to be at times (based on Erica's performance in KZK or Shaheer in this season). They are good/decent when they are ably supported by a script and when they give it their best. Of course they are glorified as best actors by their FDs but every FD is delusional and lives in a bubble that their favourite is the best ever. And the ones who don't like them make it sound like they are the worst actors who made it based on pure luck. The reality is usually somewhere in between for most actors IMO

I completely agree.

I think he was quite mediocre in MB, but S1 Dev is definitely his best role. He was fantastic in it, there were several emotional scenes where he totally nailed it. Dev ki Deewangi track was easily the best track of the show, intense and engaging. It really was a treat to watch and I have rewatched those episodes multiple times.

I know. Right from this promo in fact. The angst this track served >>> And the performances from the entire cast (Shaheer, Erica, SP & Jagat) was really good.

Yeah he is one of the popular actors on Indian TV who has worked for many years like Jennifer, Harshad etc. They do have big FDs online and are quite popular but that doesn't mean they can make shows work on their own. No one can 😆

You can get whichever actor, big or small. Ultimately, script and story are the Kings. Actors can only bring in the initial audience. Of course, not talking about the loyal fan base which will watch anything as long as their idol is in it. I am talking about general audience here. A show has to have a decent script to make it popular. Unfortunately most ITV shows lost the plot after a while.

Bhagyas ka trp dekha hai? Why will anyone leave a show with good TRP? Paise milte hai unko and mostly everyone gets good coverage onscreen as well as off-screen in Ekta shows.

Erica too would've stayed back..or maybe she is since neither her nor the production house has really confirmed the rumours. They might've come to some decision regarding this.

It all boils to an individual's choice...some are ready to do half baked job in a role and some want to do better with whatever they are offered. Limited series bol bol kar 50 episodes cross ho gaye...and this is most probably like an extra income to him. He's least bothered about the acting part.

No idea where you've seen people bashing him for off-screen content here...hardly there any active threads here on this forum except EDT.

Aapka different perspective for Shaheer doing a bad job in this season is for us to appreciate him for doing HIS job. Theek hai woh bhi kar lete hai...here

Yeh Shaheer Sheikh hai, yeh TV ke bahot bade actor hai aur apna fame aur fans co-stars ko daan karte hai, lockdown ki wajah se baakiyon ki tarah inka show bhi band ho gaya hai, isliye woh 2 shows ek saath kar rahe hai aur ek show mein acha kaam nahi kar rahe hai, lekin dil ke bahot ache hai woh dusro ki tarah show chod kar nahi jaa rahe hai ..woh fans aur producers ke liye apne baby ke saath spend karne wala time sacrifice kar rahe hai

Ab ho gaya...iske aage aur kuch nahi bol sakte... because we'll talking in circles only like the bhagya shows as you mentioned

He was excellent.. truly. Man, the angst track really tugs at heart strings in this show!

And everyone was top notch. Remember that scene between Ishwari and Bijoy, where he tells her that her love is mixed with selfishness and Dev's with weakness. I swear, dialogs of S1 should have a separate fan base!!

Both Shaheer and Erica really nailed the parts there.

It's really their career best roles so far and it pains me to see the downfall in S3.
