I have never posted on this forum before because of lack of free time although I remained in awe of the beautiful story of YHM. However, today's episode made me come here for a couple of minutes. Whenever Ekta Kapoor's name is taken by youngsters, it is usually not in admiration because her dramas tend to go downhill very soon and they have this OTT senseless drama with many bloopers although they start out brilliantly. She picks the best actors for the job and creates onscreen couples which remain in your heart forever. But somewhere down the lane, her dramas tend to lose that depth!! So, I started YHM with low expectations. But I am pleasantly surprised with the amount of depth and effort that has gone into this particular drama of hers.
I saw all of the good assets of Ekta shows in YHM and Divyanka Tripathy and Karan Patel act really well for their age, BUT there is something else about YHM which makes it stand apart from Ekta's previous shows and that is the WRITING of this show!!.
At no point do I feel that the situations or the feelings are unreal. It never feels like they are beating around the bush for no apparent reason. Everything they portray has depth to it which is what makes a good quality drama. Since dramas aren't meant to be educational, they should atleast be worth your time in the sense that they should bring out all sorts of emotions in you, make you anticipate what will happen next and most importantly leave you with the feeling that you are not wasting your time investing in emotions that are far from reality. YHM fits the bill. It does all of this and much more.
They are really handling a drama that has greattt potential, a good beginning under its' belt and a talented cast who will be able to portray every emotion that the story of Raman, Ishita and Ruhi can possibly demand. I really hope that they continue to use these things to their advantage and make the show something that I am not embarassed to admit watching to lol . Since Indian dramas usually have no logic people feel like you're stupid when you invest in them time-wise and emotionally, but YHM is an exception.
Although, my family loves Karan's acting, Divyanka should really take a bow today because it was mostly her emotions which could've determined the impact of today's scene and she nailed it. From being happy and eager to shocked to hurt to disappointed to angry to helpless at the end, she did it all so effortlessly. If she was a bad actress then today's scene could have easily looked SUPER irritating with that idiotic kid and his so-called parents in the picture. It COULD HAVE easily looked like an OTT , infuriating typical, Indian soap scene with the evil winning over the good, but the acting made us see through Ruhi, her Ishima and their hurt feelings. That's what makes YHM different from other Ekta shows for me because the feelings pierce your heart. Love the concept!! I'll stop now because considering how impressive today's episode was, I can write for a few more hours lol.
