Sometimes it feels, this current bunch calling themselves creatives are most inefficient folks.
post Ekta, itv storytelling has been so rotten & stuck- aagboys, angst, ehsaas, women being trashed, living single mom lives, just to come back to abusive sasuraals, 2 women wasting their lives fighting for a usual aag douchebag..,.amiri garibi ratta…
All in larger than life sets, nonexistent work worlds!
The feel good stories, normal dramas, happy joint family routines - trials & triumphs - all gone!
We had ITv of dekh bhai dekh, buniyaad, hum paanch, sailaab, Banegi apni baat, yeh jo hai zindagi, Fauji, circus, tu tu main main (saas bahoo in fun way), family no.1, Shanti, Rajni, Saans, Kora kagaz…..
now it’s all the same , over n over again!!!
See this: 90s had variety & shows for All agegroups.
Had some fantastic actors:
For eg: Banegi apni baat had Irfaan khan, Madhavan (his Ashley for Riya & Rituraj as Vicky : heartthrobs the th were) and so many other great Actors. And that created beautiful progressive story for 4 years run.
These shows were way more progressive in terms of story telling, tracks, real life connects, acting: everything.
