bubbly |'b?b(?)le|

adjective ( -blier, -bliest)

• figurative (of a person) full of cheerful high spirits : a bright and bubbly personality.


It doesn't say someone should be stupid and OTT to be bubbly!

The way she was giving chocolates to kids and then her interaction with her father.. her interaction with her sister .. those were scenes when she was "bubbly". I saw her trying to be so with her smile, but the voice did not reflect it! I think like NB said, even the creatives are unsure what she is supposed to be. Shoddy character sketch. I don't mind Jenny as much, but her voice needs to be a little more .. umm.. energetic at times! She needs to work on voice modulation!

i didnt said people want khushi here, But yes! they do associate the word 'bubbly' word with khushi. Which i dont agree with. They want kumud to act all clumsy and chirpy all the time, which i would never want. I absolutely loved kumud from today's episode, now thats what i would call strong personality in real sense.
And its been only 4 days and some people think they know kumud characterization better than director and actors 🤔


No I don't think people are saying they know what's better, they are just disagreeing and giving their own opinion. It is a forum, meant for that.

And no I don't think people are saying they want to see OTT khushi when they say Sanaya and it's unfair to assume otherwise.

Time will tell how the roles progress, like you said its too soon to write it off completely 😊

I for one think Jennifer is the best in the ensemble cast.- Gautam looks the part. Call me biased she is the one who has kept me hooked up to now and has enacted every scene very well. And reiterating SLB's words, after seeing them there was no need to think twice.
To people who are mentioning Sanaya, and who think it's okay to mention her, I have to say that you are a fan and so am I - but of different actors. So, respect your opinion. But this particular comparison has come up so many times that it doesn't sit well with me. There are people who haven't warmed upto Gautam's acting yet but 'Why not another male lead?' isn't a question i've seen often. If others who aren't yet pleased with the actor are willing to give him a chance then I suggest so should you.

I for one am not saying Kumud has to be bubbly. I said she is too suave. there is a difference between the two.

SLB is a fabulous director which is why most of us are here to see the show. I personally am hanging around in the hope things will get better and trust me I dont watch a show more than a week if I dont like it.

But it doesn't mean SLB is out of scope for criticism or so is Jenny or Rode. Lets remember that its is the same SLB who made a dud like Saawariya after making some fabulous movies, so yeah.

They are artists, criticism is what eggs them on to improvise.

I guess someone like me who hasn't seen past the second episode has no right to judge what Kumud is like.. I am sure you guys know better than me. But something about her seemed amiss ..
I am willing to overlook that if the story and the characters are good! So far even that seems disappointing!

I Like d Barun since Shradha, I have seen all episodes, then his another serial with Ankita, I always liked him even in IPKKND. Sanaya. I have seen first time in IPKKND, she is very very beautiful but I never liked her as khushi, sometimes they showed her without any brain with without any sense acting. Although most of the people liked it but I think she was not utilized properly. she is looking very beautiful in chancha. If I didnt like her as khushi that doesnt mean I dont like her. Similarly I have seen Jennifer first time in this serial. If we see her individually, she is fabulous, especially I liked her confidence in todays episode when she talked to Gautum. Every girl should be like this, with confidence and self respect. Although she is looking little mature for Gautum, that doesnt mean they cant be a pair. Eventually in a relation love and understanding matters the most. Initially I thought she is not a good choice for Gautum or vice-versa but now I started liking their pair. lets see how their chemistry works. I hope they can make their chemistry work by showing immense understanding and love between them while keeping their self respect intact. I dont like the serials where girls are shown to compromise with their self respect due to the attitude of male lead...

And Im a Sanaya Irani fan and I never wanted her to be cast as Kumud, not that she has been asking me to make her career decisions.

SLB's Kumud is jennifer, so we call all discuss who else could be cast, how much ever we want, nothing will change that.

Thats the reason I felt like replying to this post. Jennifer has been bang on in each and every scene so far.. yet she is criticised.. fine criticism is good and I can take it in good spirit if you do it fairly.. I have been saying that Gautam's acting has been one dimentional so far but his subtle expressions today were so good. On the other hand Jenny has hardly gone wrong anywhere with anything, be it her expressions, body language, attitude yet some people say she should be replaced.. well too bad , its SLB who is making the show and he thinks Jennifer is Kumud.

I am 100 % agree with you dude. I didnt like the acting of the leading lady. Its a serious flaw in this casting . Saraswatichandra is awesome and is fitting in perfectly well. But a big no no no to Jennifer.
She is not for this role dude. I hope CVs understand it. soon

I have a feeling jenny has been cast mainly for the woman Kumud becomes after marriage. Jenny has a certain sadness in her face.

But yeah, she looks miscast at the moment and I can critique the present not the future.
