Asad v2 was not the best but still cute and I loved seeing Asad .. I just felt if they concentrated more on this version of Asya properly it would have been better Bcoz AsYa v2 was mainly a side show since august !

Now AsYa v3 .. Def has that sexy factor and while I don't love them they r better than asya v2. But I will always hope that AsYa v1 re appears

And Raqesh is doing a good job .. Getting better everyday .. He needs to work on a few things especially dialogue .. That's just my thoughts

Cheers

Hi Zara! Yup you're right, V3 has this sexy thing going on about them, which I really love haha. Still V1 holds that place above the other versions though. Yeah, RV is still working on getting his act together, and so far he's been doing pretty well. Slowly but surely, he'll improve in other aspects as well (:

Amazing post Green!

I couldn't agree more.

The character Asad was truly Asad for me till mid June episodes, that is, before the much hyped 'Ajmer Track'.

Then came Asad V2, who was less Akdu and more mushy. I mean, very mushy for my liking!

There was romance, but the passion was missing.

Scenes became repetitive. The hairstyle was an influential factor too! SMH.

Things got worse after the ZoYaan track, because after Asad V2 brought Zoya home, he became Asad V2.5 .

Too much for me to handle!

Then we started getting very less of him and more of HB craziness.

Asad V3 is a breath of fresh air - new emotions, new hairdo, new dialogue delivery style and the list goes on.

I admit I do miss the Asad V1/V2/V2.5's 'ZOYA!'

I am still accustomed to it. So it feels funny when Asad V3 says it.

But he indeed is good and delivers passionate romantic scenes, I may add.

..and has a VERY charming smile! ☺️

So the conclusion is, with the gripping storytelling, fabulous acting and direction, I'm hooked again!

Oh actually I quite enjoyed Ajmer as well (: It was after that, after the Tanveer reveal... the fizz kinda died down. And yes, after ZoYaan it was even worse. I totally agree with the Zoya thing haha, V3 doesn't quite say it in the way Asad would in my mind... but well haha like I said, I'm just making peace since the story is going forward finally (:

Hey Green... Superb post!!!

When I started watching QH for Zoya's character though I knew actor playing Asad V1. Within span of 3-4 episodes I was fan of their noke-zoke . Even that time story was fast paced and gripping. All the tracks like Mangalpur, Dilshaad being shot to BNHH were superbly placed, shot and directed.

Then came the airport engagement and ASYA started witht heir superb chemistry... those falls, eye locks were mind blowing. We started getting addicted to it...

This where we and the makers went wrong... The serial which we were watching for story suddenly we started watching for ASYA. A family drama became a love story. Sorry a Clichd love story.

All become boring after Ajmer Track. All the wish-list drama was cheesy and boring. Few scenes here and there were good but overall story didn't move a bit. Epic Zoyaan was introduced to make the story move forward but the addiction is not easy to let go... So we protested for our ASYA to come back and finally makers bowed down to give it back to us. During this time Asad V1 when became Asad V2 we didn't even realised.

An OCD Asad became less concerned about his hair, always formally dressed started wearing jackets and T-Shirts. Intensity from his eyes started becoming less effective. It almost felt he was sleep walking through the scenes. We loved him then also cos we loved the character a little too much.

Suddenly one day we wake up to see now we have Asad V3. Initial shock of loosing the charisma of the character was major deterrent for people to think Asad cannot be played by anyone else. But I must admit Asad V3 is doing a superb job! He has understood the character in the shortest time span. His smile, his irritation, anger has its own flavour and much needed change.

Most importantly story is moving in right direction. Every team member is putting more efforts to make sure no one falls short of delivering the best.

I loved Asad V1... I sat throught Asad V2 cos I wanted back my Asad V1 and I am liking Asad V3 cos he is putting a lot of effort to make us love him

We loved... We lost.. and we may love again... That's the way life is...

Sorry for a long post.. but wanted to pen it down for a long time :)

Don't apologize! It was a pleasure to read (: In fact it deserves a thread of its own, you've summarized the tracks and how Asad's character changed along with them in a wonderful way. And I love how you said you sat through V2 waiting for V1 to come back, because that's totally what I did too. Then V3 came along, and while I may not get V1 back, he's not doing a bad job either (:

For this post...

V2 was sweet for me...but the hair was really putting me off. And the tracks were not helping either. V3 means business...he is a lion woken up from his nap...

Raqesh is doing a splendid job...👏...very very surprising. So, even though I welcome Asad 3 with mixed feelings...I am in awe of Raqesh. 😳

Yeah that's right! It's like with V3, the snoozefest ended haha. RV is cute, he's definitely growing on me too (:

While watching, I just imagine Raquesh as someone else in Zoya's life, not Asad Ahmed Khan. That reduces the expectation a lot and I find myself a lot more detached from the character on screen. 😊

Thanks for the lovely post...well written! I totally agree with your post and hope to read more👍🏼 Something positive for a change👏
