Parichay - Then & Now

I beg ti differ.. I dont think Samir Soni's acting is the only saving grace.. I think the acting in general is the saving grace of the show. Aarti Singh, Keerti Nagpure, Abhayji etc. all act very well.

I hadn't read that review before, quite interesting. Some points I definitely agree with. The promos were innovative and very intriguing. The concept was interesting because finally we had a show were things did not revolve around a female lead and how she tackled the never ending problems of the world. Samir has been playing his part well no doubt. Personally, I like the entire cast of the show and most of them deliver brilliantly on screen. To be fair the show has done a great job of Kunal and Siddhi's love story and showing how Siddhi triggered the second lease of life for Kunal but keeping that aside, the main problem still remains the very shoddy and terribly monotonous writing of this show which has ultimately brought it back to square one. Every track does not have to revolve around Kunal Chopra for sure but reducing his role to something along the lines of a hopeless lawyer who does nothing but mope for his wife in jail is very very very cringe inducing.

Do tv show writers take the audience for granted? Five years ago Kunal Chopra is a top notch gold medalist lawyer and now all this once-upon-a-time-awesome lawyer can do is land himself in jail time and again and expect his wife to use her naari shakti to sort out the mess? What crap??? The current track is sooo B-O-R-I-N-G that even trying to sit through it is a chore. I love Kunal Siddhi as a pair but honestly I've had enough of portraying Kunal as a loser and Siddhi as the brainiac. Every show has its ups and downs, some things work and some things don't but how long will they keep pushing Siddhi's greatness in our face and keep sidelining Kunal's parichay?

The shows needs an overhaul soon. Makers of parichay, PLEASE just end this horrible case track, get Kunal out of jail and get him a job, write a good, meaningful track which involves him and please for God's sake STOP portraying him as a brainless prop. Make use of Samir's awesome acting ability so that he gets his due. Everyone else on the show is doing great so bless them but seriously write something that justifies the title of the show.

We can only hope things changes because if they don't then the show will remain stuck in this endless loop of horrible tracks

@Kuanl being shown as a loser I agree but Sid's as a brainiac I disagree, this character has been penned by our very talented CV's as an insult to all women lawyers who dare to go out and make a difference!!!!All she does now is run around like her tail has been set on fire and slpa people for no apparent reason!!!!😡

Haha..I call her brainiac not in the literal sense but in general how she emerges as the true savior of all mankind at the end of each track..😆

And honestly, there isn't a single soul in this show who can be called brainiac. If they were then all these cases would be over and done with in a few days. Remember the rape case track where they found the CD but instead of making copies of it, our genius lawyers ran around getting kidnapped and what not ...lolz!
