I guess we need to give them some time. We cannot enjoy an ice cream if it is melted and not put in the refrigerator. This is daily show. If we have to enjoy the complete essence perfect buildup is necessary. More over the actors are human beings and not machines. They do have families, health problems and some other necessities. So they need to use BD's in there places. The maha episode which was aired on Saturday was shot all Friday night. Still they tried to give their best. So that is why all such bloopers and bad editing. I guess we need to be little bit patience.

I think the actors who commit to Indian soaps really need to commit. I think it is more difficult with these shows because they are shown five days a week and keeping the momentum going can be an effort, but then the actors should not commit.
If you see the difference in Western shows on TV and Indian shows, the quality is unmatchable. Athe cast in those soaps and the editing is spot on. They must body doubles as well, but they don't use them for crucial scenes. Pardon me but the ME door scene was a crucial part and they got some moronic BD and some pathetic shots of Barun in which he looked haggard and drawn out.
In the beginning when the show went live, I could hardly wait to go home and watch the episode, but now it feels that not only the CVs but also the actors are taking us for a ride.
They have to remember that the audience now is educated and they have competition from the West as well and if they want to survive they need to get their act together.

Thanks for all your feedback. Its nice to know I'm not alone. Here's hoping that the quality will improve and that the CVs understand one of these days that a kiss is NEVER just a kiss. Please go to the edge and jump off with a great storyline and fantastic romance. We're waiting!!!

Let's give them a chance... 😊



I couldn't agree more. Yes production can do a lot better with small things like avoiding bad editing, too many bloopers but as u said they r humans as well. They r trying so hard to meet all obligations, working day & nite. And we don't even know what goes behind the scene, like budget, time lines..etc..And so true we cannot just live on ice cream alone. But 1 thing 4 sure, u cannot satisfy all d ppl all d time.😉

Great post! Agree that this show has been on the edge and back so many times now. After a while even the most ardent fans will lose interest and move on to other things/shows (after all, time is precious to us all and if we are making a commitment to spend 30 mins of each day watching something, it better be worth the while). The BD they used for Barun for the ME totally spoiled the scene for me.
