I was crazy about Geet/Maaneet at the time it aired, but it had lots of scenes with bgm playing and couple staring at each other. Sometime staring at each for 3+ mins even. At that time I didn’t mind, but now when I come across it I find I don’t like it like I did back then. But the show’s lead characters were written very well, and story between the leads was developed very well too. That was the first and last show of Gul where both lead characters were written well and ML was not toxic or abusive other than being angry initially. The chemistry was great too which was the main reason the show becaming so popular. From the itv shows I have watched over decades that show was the most romantic show but too sweet type that now I can’t take it because of too much sweetness or it just feels too idealistic type now
This YHM couple look really good. It’s good I didn’t watch this show at that time it aired as now I will have something good to watch whenever I will have access to hotstar. I didn’t watch it at the time as I was not interested in a couple with child story. It felt like older couple story to me. So I skipped it. I was a teenager then and interested in young couples only, but now as an adult I can watch it. The only couple way before YHM I loved despite having them children was AnuPre and that’s because I wasn’t really understanding much back then. I was too young but loved AnuPre right when I saw them the first time and fell in love with Sneha. She was such a cutie. Ekta took one of the cutest kids for Sneha’s role
I don’t have the patience to sit through the romantic scenes of a couple if all they do is stare at each other for minutes on end as a song/tune plays. It feels more like a staring contest after a time than a romantic moment.
I start thinking whose eyes would start watering first, who blinks first. Why is it that none of them ever have an eye infection or sore eyes?
What happens if they shoot such a scene and one of the leads had sore eyes but didn’t know yet and then both of them are infected?
