Sir:

You have done great work in movies appreciate your work always

TV; i STARTED TO WATCH BECAUSE OF YOUR NAME EVERY THING IS GRAND BUT SOME TIMES A BEAUTIFUL PICTURE CAN LACK SOUL.

Understand your TV Audience: Love your sets etc but I find myself switching channels,

you need fun romance drama every thing little less theaterical and more realistic depict todays times do not have to follow the novel to a T.

Hero needs to work on his emotions needs to let loose from eyes and body language emote through his voice

Jennifer is lovely their chemistry needs that X factor.

Get a focus group of all ages from TV world not your chamchas ask their opinion and take your cue for direction from there.

Once again respect your work and knowing you will take it to the next level.

My honest feedback is as follows

In spite of few initial bloopers the show is good

The choice of lead casts is good too as Jenny and Gautam seem to fit in there characters quit well

Story is moving at good pace and is not at all boring ,though most of us know the story still ur cvs have succeeded to maintain our interest till now

I am in love with the show and want it to rule trp charts

Just want to see how u re define Saraswati Chandra in modern context and make these star crossed lovers meet as u said u r going to complete this incomplete love story of perfect love

Barring a few bloopers here and there...the show is a visual treat..

The sets are amazing, the clothes are awesome, the soundtrack is brilliant and the chemistry between the leads is already sizzling despite not being in the same frame...lets hope the the show continues to maintain the high standards that we expect from a maestro like SLB...

I think the story is moving at a good pace, considering how we jumped into Saras and Kumud's marriage talks within the first episode...it could have been dragged out much more...

I want more character development with Kumud and Saras...give them more depth...instead of telling us that Saras is kind and compassionate and Kumud is sharp witted and gutsy, give us more scenes that define their character - I guess we may see more of it now...

I will admit though, these first weeks have been pretty tough to keep me glued but I'm watching because I know this is just the beginning...still, very impressed with the cinematography and music =) I love when they use original background score

I agree with your assessment. A week into it and I got bored. Its missing some chemistry. It has all the right parts story, actors and all but it feels lacking in keeping interest.

Have to admit did not expect this let down. How strange I feel this way.

My honest feedback:
The direction is superb, the music is mesmerising and very very apt. ⭐️
Plus the sets, the costumes, and the current pace is perfect.

The leads have been doing well so far, but that naturalness is missing to some extent. Still looking for that spark in the chemistry
Anyway, they have a long way to go, so no judging yet!

Summing up... everything's been going great so far.
Just please do not introduce any dash of overwhelming "drama" and "vampirism".
Would love it if it could be kept as natural and real as possible! 😊

BORING SHOW. It's slower than the likes of Saathiya and Yeh Rishta, and it pretends to be articulate when in reality it's as similar to the other shit that's churned out on TV. Jennifer is very lackluster, though Gautam is visually appealing however he's not very expressive at all. The couple is missing that zinger, which attracts the audience...the story is of a love saga, hence the pair need to hit it off right from the start and that's missing very much. The two don't seem compatible at this point, and all in all the show just does not seem to do a good job at holding people's attention. I don't see the show lasting too long, it's simply not appealing. It's not as romantic neither is it too dramatic...doesn't have a niche to pull the audiences in.

Jennifer W is very unattractive. Did I mention that already? #OHYEAH Gautam is aight,minus the eyebrows. Yes, I will judge the characters' attractiveness since that's also a supposed element of the show as the camerawork is highlighting always the girl's waist, breasts, chest etc.

Basically, tai tai phisss. All that build up for this epic saga, and within two weeks, I am going, "SERIOUSLY! W*F"

You know...romantic shows that gained instant viewers were couples like Angad - Kripa, Arnav - Khushi, RK - Madhubala, Arjun - Arohi, etc etc. This show hasn't managed that yet which should make the creatives worry a bit because the show thrives on the lead pair. Neither does the show have a strong female character which some shows run on such as Kokila, Anandi, Bhabo etc.

Positives of the show: the promos before the show aired. LOL.

Agree. Lackluster for sure and yes the promos with the hype was the high for the show.

I do not find the lead actress attractive. But for some reason she has this fan following, and I thought I would give her a chance. Result: she seems like the downfall for the show.

Oh well. Live and learn. Not everything Bansali churns out is worth trying.

Jennifer Singh Grover is the most beautiful actress on T.V. She & SLB are the plus points of this show. The show has everything that needed to raise the TRPs & within a week we are at # 4 .

Jennifer is extremely attractive & beautiful . Oh did I mention that already ?
