Is it just my microscopic whining or do I have a point in actuality?

Rishabh is an extremely good-looking guy if i get him a hair stylist imported from Milan . He has amazing soulful eyes and he is very very photogenic. But when it comes to screen presence , holding a scene together by a nuanced measured performance , the boy continues to falter - even when QH is touching a 100. His dialogue delivery , pronunciation of Hindi/Urdu at certain points suffers and his performance's degree depends on the artist who is with him - be it Shabnam, Karan or even Humeira ( the pretty lass' name please?). Humeira has come a long way from her screechy awkward days and i love the torque of her performance as a spurned yet honourable woman.

Rishabh has potential but that is that. He is not moving beyond this rawness. He has an excellent face that can be both aggressive and vulnerable but he is yet to inch towards the craft of using it to his advantage.

I feel the same drawback in Nisha. Very pretty, delicate and elite looking . But again, in the layer of veiling Tanveer under the salwaar-kameez Tehzeeb, the dialogue delivery and the mannerisms are coming across as too plastic. Its like Tehzeeb is being forced down her throat and its not natural. The portrayal of her as the prim-propah Muslim girl is not coming as natural, like it comes to Archana as Nikhat.

My point is not to bash Rishabh and Nisha, What I mean is that while Rishabh needs to move to the next level of performance , Nisha needs to work on looking and sounding convincing as Tanveer. I am not very sure about Nisha yet but Rishabh seriously has potential if he works towards it. And when you are acting with flawless actors like Karan, Surbhi , Shalini , Shabnam and stalwarts like Alka , the loopholes do a limelight fashion parade.

I think 4Lions needs to concentrate on Rishabh and Nisha because they are pivotal in the story, epecially Rishabh. Workshops and rehearsals are needed for them, even though i know they shoot 24x7.

Many people might think am sealing Nisha too early. Maybe. If she gets the hang of Tanveer, maybe we will see her improve by leaps and bounds but seeing Rishabh's flat graph , i would not bet too much on that.

Besides, screen presence is one thing that the camera tells you the moment we go lights, camera , start sound, action. While Rishabh still holds because of an interesting face and the dirtbike character of Ayaan, Nisha seems to be paling on the screen.

Look at Alkaa Kaushal when she enters the scene as Razia. THAT is what screen presence is all about.

If my post comes across as bashing , I am extremely sorry about it. :-)

I agree. Karan, Surbhi, Shalini, Alka are flawless actors IMO. They just take scene to an another level altogether with their amazing screen presence and their acting skills. Even actors playing Badi Bi, Nazma, Nikhat, Rashid and Humeira are great. But Rishabh is a below average actor. I cringe watching him especially when he has scenes with Karan. His performance falls flat. Yes he does have screen presence and that kinda saves his scenes for me but Nisha, Man she's so boring to watch. No screen presence and her dialogue delivery makes me pull out my hair. She's just bad. I hope she improves or God know how I'm gunna tolerate her especially her scenes with Karan, Surbhi and Shalini.

Thanks.Hmm. I too feel the same actually. Rishabh is still where he was in Episode 1 even though his cute factor and his rakish good looks save him most of the time. Nisha needs to be told that even Tehzeeb has adaa, nazaakat and an allure. 😆

Agree. I guess many of us have the same problem especially with Ayaan. he definitely needs to be improved if zoya-ayaan track is there. Else, it would be a big trouble .

Nisha, I will give a couple more episodes to judge. I personally felt her acting was okay but dialogue delivery was flaaat. Its no way sounding like how salwaar kameez's should sound. As you said, Nikhat totally nailed it.

Agree..

Rishab's performances are hit or miss.. Sometimes he is good but other times he is extremely bad (esp in emotional scenes) I remember reading an article that said that he is not punctual and doesn't not attend workshops that PH organizes for him.. I dont know how much of it is true, but judging his performance, looks like it is true.

As for Nisha, I agree her performance is not upto the mark so far.. I don't see the best friend type of chemistry b/w her and Asad(KSG).. Hopefully, she'll pick it up soon..

4Lions is actually very good at casting I don't know how they went wrong with these two characters..perhaps they thought they could mould them..

Rishabh needs a hair cut...then we can handle him and Surbhi ...maybe...

Nisha...I will stick to my stance of no comments...😕

Seriously me and my brother laugh every time he comes on-screen. I don't find him good-looking either:\ He has some screen presence, that's why I can watch him. Even lady playing Shireen makes me cringe. My brother says she just reads out her lines without any emotions. I like her character but in acting even she doesn't impress me much. I still wonder what my brother has to say about Nisha. Friday's episode hasn't aired here yet.

Thanks. If Rishabh is going to stay at this stage only, then, we better always have Asad in his and Zoe's scenes.

Nisha needs workshops on the character of Tanveer. 😊
