Hi Shilpita,
Welcome to the forum...
QH 1 was not perfect..and personally for me, the mitwas in the beginning looked cliched..and the Rabba Veys in ipkknd too...(Hope U watched that.)
What has attracted me to the show is the storyline and the execution.
I bet we were all able to identify much better with an ipad sporting Zoya...Sanam is not that interesting, compared to Zoya...or is she?
The idea is to create someone diametrically opposite to the male lead...Aahil has more of Zoya characterestics...he goes several steps further from 'yeh mere kapde hai, mere character nahi'...he is unapologetic about the choices he makes...even though it may be shocking for most of us...
So..Sanam has to be opposite of all that he is...that is all...
I am liking the parallel tracks in QH 2 much better than QH1...The sibling bonds too...
QH1 looked very artificial ..even upto the meteor scene..
Cliched romantic moments...the junoons and mitwas look ill timed until the leads actually start feeling something...😆
On the whole, QH2 looks very promising...Hope U'll get to enjoy it...and stick around too...
I agree... No show is without its fair share of bloopers and cringe worthy moments.. and the eyelocks in all shows are rather like that .. I stopped watching IPKKND due to too many eyelocks actually.. 😆
But QH1 became artificial after the entry of Tanveer.. her elaborate plans and pushing Zoya off cliff etc were just too mediocre.. As i said i loved the story uptill 150 episodes.. then its obvious from the quality of story and execution from ajmer track onwards that it went downhill and diluted the characters of Leads for TRP.. The whole track of Ajmer was awfully handled.. Zoya calls Asad on cell which he left in bhopal.. Tanveer hears the voice mail and reachs ajmer to be rid of Zoya in like 1 hour..Even if she gets a flight , the average checkin Security check takes 2 hours.. so did she sprout wings. Zoya is saved by a Chadar that flew from Asad's hands.. A old woman is kept captive in her own house under beds and no one finds her.. That house must have filthy floors as no one bothers to clean under beds.
But inspite all this... The character sketch of the QH1 were so much believeable.
I totally agree they wanted to make Sanam as very different from Ahil.. Rle reversal of sorts.. but the circumstances for them could have been much better.. I am sure , I will keep watching more out of curiosity as both the leads now are putting their best in their roles... But sometimes i wonder why its so difficult for Makers to keep it interesting and sensible at the same time.
