Sometimes I feel the way Suhana uses English words in her dialogues is very unnatural. A lot of people who have an urban educational background tend to use a lot of English words, but the way it is done here, kind of spoils the otherwise perfectly written dialogues for her. Thats my opinion, what do you people think?

Her english words doesn't surprises me. But lack of hindi knowledge ammazes me ..... Seems to me she must have bunked lot of classes. People who had english medium scholling tend to use english words than other language.
In my opinion , What ruins the perfactly written dialogues is mockery done by others . So what she uses more english words than hindi. Does she do mockery of ur english ????

I think using English words is ok, but saying stuff like "main unknown thi" for "main anjaan thii" is kind of strange. Ya, and I feel the dialogues have actually been written in Hindi first and a few select/random words have been translated into English, which is strange. According to my observation, the pattern in which people generally mix English words in normal conversation is a different from what is shown here. And ya, lack of knowledge of Hindi and especially some of those Urdu words is nothing strange. Again, this is purely my opinion

I agree with you some what as many of times, Suhana,s dialouges were perfect in hindi and she did delivered them perfectly and naturally, its only the comic scenes or so called enforced comic scene where it is unnaturally and annoying, but in all intense scenes it was okey, the example you gave of dialogue in Goa was bit strange but reflected Suhana,s personality, as she said " Mai Apni Heartbeat ko nah smajh saki" and Mai Unknown thee something like that. But I know what you mean , they should try to minimise the forced comedy .

Even i too feel that dialogue not up to the mark...."Main unknown thi".."kabhi apni heartbeat ko samajh nahi saki"...ki jagah simple sa dialogue jaise " Mein kabhi tumhare liye apni uss feelings ko samajh hi nahi payi jo mere dil mein sirf aur sirf tumhare liye hamesha se thi"........use karte to jyada better lagta😊

wow 😊 I totally would have accepted this dialogue. You guys are really talented :)
The point I am trying to make is not about her using English, which I feel is perfectly justified, but it sounds very unnatural and sometimes the usage is wrong, as was in this case IMHO

Hey Sush......Good Post Yar......I also feel that they are bit aggravating her usage of English.....I can say from my experience that It isnt possible for one that he/she isnt able to understand Simple Hindi words.....I have too studied In english medium whole my Life But I am Not only Good in English But also Good at Hindi too and that too equally Good......So I hope they will work on this in future and try to improve their mistakes.....Its not wrong to show Suhana having problems with Hindi on some difficult words like Today Bhanti Bhanti.....I mean its not that difficult but still they can show it as difficult word........
