Execution of the show despite potential - Rough & dry

From the promos of the show, concept seems to be a remake or something of SGP though there were different traits here & there.

I'm not sure what it is but man, pacing & direction of the show seems off. Pacing felt too lagging.

FL seems somewhat raw in acting or maybe it's pacing but somehow felt it was a dry execution between the paternal aunt-niece. The FL seems like a spendthrift as she's from a reputed family & somewhat conscious about what she does to maintain her figure and status hence at disagreements with the aunt. Strained relationship with her mother seemed to buildup this social consciousness in her.

Seen it in the past that FL's with strained relationships with parents sometimes get on nerves in ITV based on the respective shows' execution but with the slow start, not sure where the direction is headed towards.

There are moments that are bearable for example yes, dryness was visible over the actress playing Khushi (ML's sister) but the song selection was good for showing the daughter's farewell from her native place. It wasn't best bit but not certainly the worst scene. When the aunt of Khushi was talking about the pros/cons of joint family vs nuclear family versus parallel to Gungun's torn apart family scenes, seems like potential for good execution if it improves in the future episodes.

Another scene is the bond between Gungun and her aunt when her aunt opens up over her past & strained relationship with Akriti.

Precap for episode 4 has the couple meet but execution & pacing doesn't seem on par for some reason.

I won't say anything before the show starts but the treatment given by the same production house and creative lead to another show makes me wonder if I should even give this show a shot! I am too wary now.

The show's started, I think. I just feel the disconnected towards the execution of the show. FL has her moments of being selfish, conscious, bonding towards to those who have seen her grow up. ML's family is joint family wherein his uncle has a small grudge for the ML to choosing to remain in India as opposed to rejecting an offer from the USA.

But the execution & pacing felt too dry, slow. Right now, somewhat mixed about the show.

Concept's not new in some way or the other but the execution seems really dry & slow.

It is to early to say anything major - but IMHO


FL and execution is worst of all so far.... can not connect at all. ... I feel like I am watching in FF mode or watching in chunks...


FL is overacting or not acting at all (or trying too much to act) - I can not say .... but I can not see a character Gungun anywhere.....I see only Esha.


ML is doing great work... and most of ML family members(actors) are good too.

I think its a characterization of FL. In marathi version also she is shown same, but later on it picks up.

To be honest there is nothing new in the show or that we haven’t seen. I would give this show some time and then judge lol. I may change my opinion or not change lol. This is exact replica of sgp for me. I really missed something easy breezy on tv show hence I decided to give this show a shot.

I agree, with the FL. It seemed like she was rehearsing on screen and audition clips were being played as opposed to actual feeling. Looked artificial acting.

ML is better but still not on par. Maybe it's the first week so shall give it time to settle in perhaps.

I agree the execution is not really good.

Fl needs to improve a bit, so far ml is good.

It's a remake of bengali show called Khorkuto and the scenes so far seem to be copy pasted. Even the set design is similar to the original


but the acting was better in the original, everything seems thanda in this one
