Whoever said Eku is using Kasam's music, they were right!! Ffs, I stopped watching Kasam when she had that plastic surgery to be Kritika again and also forgot the music!!! But heck, this bgm again?! And what's that "hawa ka jhonka" where he has a feeling of someone aka Karuwaki when he hasn't even met her? That's BS!!! Left episode 3 at 14:34mins to write this! The right reaction would be of that meme of everyone face-palming themselves!!! And seriously, the bgm is cringe if you've ever watched previous Ekta shows without knowing it was an Ekta show at that time.
Also, the directors kind of let Adnan freelance his dialogues and body language. The fight scene with the apple, MINUS the apple AND OTT Herculean strength of carrying someone's whole body for 1mins straight, seems to be the only areas where the directors direct the script of the show.
I have an issue with the clothes. It's super modern, given that it's pré-Islamic and pré-colonisation times, where cloth were only available and styled without cutting and stitching. Heck, I realized I could have decorated those to represent that era waaay better than the actual designer. Maybe natural beads from plants, wood pieces, stones and dry hay, tressed made maybe, including linen threads and rough gemstones, and with some creativity used into it, it could also have been today's fashion statement and a sustainable fashion. (Yeah, I also try to visualise how Ramayan and Mahabharata would be with realistic representation of that era's clothing) If I'm not wrong the color purple would have been omitted too from the color palette!! Maybe only for the commoners but used only for kings and queens of that era, coz no flag bears the color purple, REMEMBER??!
Calming the hell down, "it's got potential, if it were to be more realistic and real efforts put in by direction team and stylist team".
