Which 90s actress has had the best OTT show till now?

Edited by diasingh2 - 2 years ago

I had very low expectations from Aranyak and I was totally surprised when I watched it. Story-line, cinematography, characters etc everything was good in Aranyak. The only complaint I've heard about is that it did not get the 'accents' right, but I can live with that.

Arya season 1 was TOP-NOTCH and I would've definitely voted for it, only if its season 2 could live up to its expectations. (also if I hadn't watched Raveena's show).

Bombay Begums was surprisingly good, and the story-line kept me hooked.

Mentalhood was nothing extraordinary, but it was not bad either. It tried to tackle a lot of "modern" issues but the makers couldn't dig deep into anything since it was a light-hearted show.

I feel The Fame Game is easily the weakest in the lot, especially considering it was a Drama/Thriller. It didn't' have an impressive supporting cast (except Manav Kaul), unlike the other 4 shows where the supporting cast truly elevated the show's quality.

Performance wise, Sush, Lolo and Pooja were good but I feel they couldn't mold themselves into their characters well enough. Madhuri was practically playing a fictional version of herself. 

That's why, I voted for Raveena/Aanyak because not only the show was good, Raveena delved into a character that was nothing like her in real life. And she was convincing enough.

The funny thing is I never liked Raveena in the 90s so I'm quite surprised with my vote.😃

Out of the list, I've only watched Fame Game and it was so disappointing.

All it showed me was how limited Madhuri's acting really is 😔

Hi everyone I just came here to say that MENTALHOOD is the biggest pile of SHHHHHITTTTEE I have ever ever ever ever ever ever ever witnessed.

The Fame Game was so-so, kinda boring. Bomay Begums was wonderful. Sounds like I need to watch Sush and Ravs' shows.

Aranyak seemed to be inspired by Candy.

She used to be such a powerhouse of a performer in the 90s.

But looks like her acting skills have regressed now and they get worse with her every 'comeback'.🤔

I totally recommend watching Arya and Aranyak, definetly better than Mentalhood. 👍🏼

Also, I don't think Mentalhood was THAT bad.  Sure it was cheesy & ridiculous at several points, but I'm sure there are even worse shows out there.😆

Cheesy is absolutely fine. I wish that was all that was wrong with it. I will list some problems below but the biggest issue is the writing, I would be SHOCKED if it was written by anyone over the age of 12.

- There are scenes where Karisma looks at the camera by mistake and they kept it in the edit. 

- The background music is not just too loud and distracting but it's totally OFF sync with the scene.

- The acting is SO BAD. It's like Karisma is working on a drama serial, another actress is working in a slapstick comedy, another one in an eerie sci-fi flick, another one in a 70s sit-com.

- And it's tone-DEAF in every episode, which is worrying to say the least.

BUT...it's so bad that it's good, I am enjoying the atrocity of it all.

I have watched only aarya and it was good 

I loved Raveena as a cop in Aranyak. She is easily the best actress by far among the ones in the poll. She was fabulous in Satta.
