Being a bit more serious...I suppose, it's a problem of upbringing...I wonder how many children get an own agenda...from very small on...

I have a lot of respect for the Archie kids and also the supportive parents...

Andrew has respectful and supporting parents... Betty, too (I like both their father's thinking). Reggie's father has no faith in his son...initially...has no respect for himself, either...Reggie is the one character that blossoms the most through the friendships.

Jughead is the one I like the most...and he is the most mature one...emotionally.

There is so much said/shown in the movie (I bet it either got overheard or not taken serious) that I found beyond the (often cheesy) run-of-the-mill things of movies where youngsters play the main characters. I felt that Zoya had a lot of respect and fondness for her 7 protagonists.

Yet this movie is so much ridiculed...and in my mind because people can't separate the performing of the characters from the people who perform them (especially the star-kids)...they are not able to look e.g. at Kushi, Agastya and Suhana only as aspiring actor/actresses without thinking at Bachchan, SRK and Sridevi...

It could not be that I'm the only one who looks at Kushi, Agastya and, Suhana the same way I look at Mihir, Vedang, Yuvrash and Dot. To me they exist as characters in a story shown in a film and my simple question is: "Do I understand these characters through the acting?"...And I do, each of them.

So in addition to every other very well done work (cinematography, settings, music...etc) I like the uncomplicated (but still meaningfull) story and the rendition.


I haven't watched the movie..so avoided commenting on the characterisation or acting. The only snippet we got to see here was about Agastya and Suhana..and honestly they didn't deliver the dialogue well.

About their being misfit..commented even before the release that Agastya looks too sophisticated to be Archie..had reservations about Suhana too..but then saw her dance video and thought maybe she is Sassy afterall. Reviews don't seem to agree..

And ya..these kids have the privilege of bagging such a well marketed debut on a global platform like Netflix..an adaptation of a universally loved comic character.

They get a star studded premiere attended by who's who of BW and bigwigs from Netflix. Their families r loved and followed by millions. Tell me how is anyone going to see them without thinking of Bachchan, Sridevi or SRK? They got this offer and r talked about the most precisely for this reason..getting scrutinized is just a part of their public life, coz they owe their whole public identity to their lineage. It's a small con to the pros

Ok I have a genuine question.Did Kareena get such raving reviews for her portrayal of Poo during the release of K3G?I always thought she must have gotten criticised for her OTTNESS as Poo and it’s only after JWM and Geet that people started appreciating Poo also.

So did she get such love for Poo when the movie released too or is it with time that people started loving Poo more?


More than praising Kareena for Poo..people r saying the character is closest to Veronica.

Kareena overacted..and as per her Poo is based on KJo and she followed what he said😂

Though she seems to be real life Veronica..Rich, Sassy, Arrogant, Beautiful, Go-getter, somewhat vain but generally good hearted.
