I need to go watch Beyhadh.. i remember watching the initial episodes but didn't watch on because I disliked Kushal Tandon but given the cult status it has achieved, I've been thinking of trying it again. Thanks for reminding me!
Tandon was probably the weakest point of Beyhadh as an actor. Was downright terrible in some scenes.
Beyhadh 1's cult status is due to JW the actor. Unbelievably good performance- the script allowed her to showcase a variety of emotions, and she aced it. Looked unbelievably good doing it (great hair and styling), which also helped! 😳 Literally every actress interviewed those days about their dream role would answer Maya in Beyhadh.
Tandon during crying scenes and Winget in crying scenes were literally on two opposite ends of the scale performance wise.
I have no sympathy for her character (there used to be loads of fights in the Beyhadh forum because of it 😆), but as an actor- it's probably the single best performance I've seen on ITV. As she said at the end "Maya Beyhadh hai"
If they had a stronger actor than Tandon, B1 would probably have enjoyed the same cult status as say, IPK does these days on these boards. His single good point was to wear his shirt buttons low and be eye candy.
