is it just us ?

are we the ones making KYPH bigger than what it is intended to be...... we have devoted pages n pages on the star crossed lovers, their obsession, their madness, their all consuming love n hatred.... the way we write abt the two n disect each n every part of the relationship, we turn it into an epic love story........

.......... whereas in reality, it may turn out to be just anither ghisa pita serial, with a revenge-seeking girl and a self sacrificing boy (btw they can take turns at this n exchage places as the serial progresses so that they can stretch the serial for another 2 years)

what i'm trying to say is that we have put angad-kripa story on a sky-high pedestral whereas the end result may be nothing close to it (blame the writers, the serial already has had its share of ridiculous cheesy moments)

after saying all this....i'm still completely ADDICTED to it 😉😉

agree to evry word u just said bips...😃..esp the last line

I know what you are saying Bips...but the truth that Angad and Kripa are indeed an intriguing couple and that's why we are discussing them 24x7...several yahoogroups devoted to them...whereas KYPH in general is just another Ekta offering.

We are not here because of KYPH...we are not addicted to KYPH...we are addicted to the pairing of Angad and Kripa...otherwise who cares?

101% True Bips! Couldn't have put it better! It is the audience which lends popularity and fame to a book, a serial, a film, a drama or just about anything! Critical acclamation is all hog-wash, all that matters in end is, whether the audience, that is we, like it or not!

What else explains the phenomenal success of the Harry Potter Series? JK Rowling might never get a Nobel / Booker for her book, but the whole world knows that she is the only single person who brought back reading into fashion again and literally revived publication business all over the World! Who else gave her the demi-god status that she now has? The readers all over the World! Does she really care about what the critics write about her book, I don't think so.......we, the readers have anyway elevated her to the status of the high priestess of publication, and nothing can change that position!

Same with movies! Why do you think a simple fare like Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jaayenge enjoyed a 500 Weeks run? Was it critically acclaimed? Was it an Oscar nominee? Did it have mind-blowing performances? No.....the only reason for its unprecedented success is the audience appreciation that went for it!

Why do you think a trashy, third class soap like KSBKBT has achieved a cult like status? Because, the entire Indian Middle class household watches it with devotion every day, 4 days a week. I read somewhere that when the Bhuj Earthquake shook every corner of Gujarat, the first thing people asked for in aid was a TV so that they shouldn't miss a single episode of the serial!

KYPH has a story which is as old as the hills.....rich, spoilt boy meets poor, good girl, they fall in love, parents oppose, they get seperated and then wind up with one another again............there is nothing exceptional about the serial, apart from the mint-fresh lead cast, especially Angad, Kripa and Prithvi........but still the serial is gaining popularity.......only because we the audience appreciate it!

I hope I have made my point😳 I know I can be a little too detailed at times! Thanks for bearing with me!

Cheers,

Chilly

yes its the one thing they have got bang on right..... its the casting.... any other lacklustre couple, and i wouldn't even watch the promo let alone join a forum about them.....their chemistry is just too sizzling for words.... and of course, iqbal is such a cutie, that doesn't hurt either 😉
