D3 as of Today - Page 2

Before I reply individually to all of you, I am very happy to see constructive posts here. You've all given in some very true points and on the basis of the same I would like to clarify few things:

One, I do not mean to compare Vrushika Mehta with Sneha Kapoor. In all honesty Sneha Kapoor's reasons for leaving had led me into believing she is an escapist. While I still believe the same, I'd be in denial if I said SwaRon with Kapoor in it wasn't getting on my nerves because of Kapoor's inhibitions. She did many wrong things to the story line See, no hard feelings. But its not Sneha's fault na. She was all about leaving. It was Palki who wanted Sneha to be there and changed the story line. and it'd be reasonable to associate this 'lack of passion' everybody is speaking of here with the wrong decisions she led the writers into making. But as it is, mates - Vrushika Mehta plays Sharon very differently. I like her and her version of Sharon and realize how Kapoor would not have been able to produce scenes - I still feel I will not love and admire her as I admired Sharon before, up until the last couple of months before Kapoor left. (: Thats true. Here or there, Swaron would have lacked something. I still wish Sneha was Sharon minus her limitations. Sneha leaving TV industry is the biggest loss ever. Such a fine talented actress and we will never see her acting again.

Two, SwaRon have matured. I had expected the maturity to intensify their passion, not lessen it. Thinking same. One thing where D3 disappoints me is Dialogue department. Be it TaaRey be it Swaron be it Nilesh's rap or comedy dialouges- I think the dialogues are very normal. Not the dialogues which makes our heart skip a bit. If you know what I mean😳 They maintain their uniqueness by being perhaps the only couple on TV who have befriended each other after their breakup. That is adorable. But after a point, as conflicted and layered and beautiful characters as Swayum and Sharon don't deserve to only be 'adorable', now do they? 😳 I hope you don't mind me saying this but its like a role reversal. Its like Sharon is the Laila now, and frankly, its a little hard to digest😆. Meaning they are adorable😳

Three, those who have no opinion of Taani have been wise in talking talking of her. Yup. As for me, I will not say I like her because I don't. But I have no hatred towards her, whatsoever. So, all you guys are welcome to discuss her here on the basis of my evaluation and I again wish good luck to the actress and the writers in creating substance in Taani's character. (: Its going good till now. Hope they really work nice on it. I don't know why I am finding it hard to trust CVs in this deparment. So many goofups in Taani and TaaRey lately

Epiphany.-Um, its ur name? Just puzzled

Thanks dear for this interesting and different topic...

Last epi of D3 should be considered one of the finest epis of the show, as per me... it not only had a good balance between all important elements of D3,... SS, TR, Gang and dance... it also was written in a very good way... and very well executed by both technical team and actors...

TR...

Though I'm not a TR fan and used to not connect with their scenes/story,... this time their scene was not annoying at all, instead it was really good in terms of script and execution... VD has improved... and both T & R seemed to be more solid characters...

It's like when u see the oppenent team is playing well in the match, u should say that as this is won't change the fact that the other team was and still ur fav...

Sharon...

- First I agree with "Muskurana" & "Tannuluv" points... for me, story and scripts always comes first then the actors... and I'm keen to see what is in writers' mind without any constraints imposed on their talent... If the concrete is solid, everything else will look more solid too, if not, everything else will be weak even if looks solid from a standalone pov... writers' r the concrete of any show and actors r among the "everything else"...

- Yes there r changes in Sharon but not all of them r due to the change in acting style... Sharon has to go through some changes; some of them should have been shown since SK's time actually but the known constraints prevent them... She, as a character, has to change due to 2 reasons:

a) Swayam's effect - ... Her soft nature has to come out more often... coz love has that strong effect to reduce the negativity in humans' souls and attitude... We could see this during SK times but I think still she could have shown more of it if not for her inhibitions...

b) Illness effect - '.. Usually illness would affect person's phycology'. Either negatively by becoming more tensed or positively by viewing life from different angle and hence have more peace with his inner'.. Sharon's case seems the positive one'. Being tensed and somewhat artificial person since childhood, watching such positive affect of illness on her seems logical'. Specially with being surrounded by people who can understand her needs like Swayam'..

SK/Vrush'..

I'll talk only about their acting'.

After SKs exit I was expecting anything in the new actress'. I believed that as she can be less than SK, she also can be of SK's level, or maybe better than SK'.. But deep inside me I was not optimistic'.

Agree that some of the change in Sharon's character should be attributed to the change in acting style'.. However I guess this was for the good of the show'.. Maybe I'm among the very few whom was feeling SK's sharon was lacking somewhere'. I used to have some Qs in my mind about the diva Sharon'.. Though SK was very very good in emotional scenes and has expressive face, I was not convinced of y she was the most popular and the diva of college bearing in mind the way she used to behave'.

One day while I was watching Gumrah, when the story was about a Diva of some college, I realized that SK was missing some important details that a diva should show'. The actress in Gumrah could make me feel the diva through her acting, the thing that SK couldn't coz she missed some critical details'.

Now Vrush is not imitating SK, rather she is performing Sharon according to her understanding of the character'.. And I believe this is the most correct thing to be done'. Coz if Vrush tried to imitate SK, she will carry on the same mistakes SK was doing while performing Sharon plus adding her new mistakes'. Then Sharon would have turned into disaster as a character'' but the way Vrush is playing Sharon tells that she could escape the mistakes SK was doing at least, but remains her own mistakes which can be reduced with more practice'.

If u ask me now which version I prefer'. I'll tell if we can expect the same percentage of growth in acting level from Vrush during the same amount of time as SK's'.. then I prefer Vrush's version'.

SK was excellent in acting technicalities but her understanding of all character details was lacking'' as in, she knew how to cry, shout, express love and emotions' but being a born rich, smart, spoiled, sophisticated diva, she shouldn't be loud the way SK was showing''. On the other hand, Vrush has a better understanding of the character details as she shows the strength and meanness of diva but with elegance' she is elegantly mean, and this justifies her popularity despite her defaults'.. but in terms of technicalities, Vrush still needs to work hard to grasp all required technicalities an actor should learn and I believe this is just a matter of time when she will learn them all''
