Ok ,I dont wanna be rude to you , in fact i appreciate your post , but your comment on '90s stuff falling flat' is completely untrue. I happen to be a fan of YUDKBH as well as ypntkh , so All i wanna say that YUDKBH certainly hasn't gone flat. In fact it has highest TRP among Sony shows and has earned a lot of appreciation for the beautiful depiction of 90s. In fact our show depends heavily on yudkbh ... both for audience and TRP.

Nice post. I am loving the simplicity of the show. So far like you said the good part is there is no cliched romance. I even like the teenage ones. Plus Sid 's family is interesting. Even i am warming to Anushka .

Apologies but what is BBKD?

Same here. Interest span is too short these days. Was simply not watching anything until I got down with cold and had to take off from work and hence happened to watch the six episodes. Seems interesting so far. so far.

Good to see a familiar face 😃 Have always enjoyed reading your posts.

Ditto on BBKD, the Sinha family reminded me of the Pants. And similar to that, I doubt this show would also last long enough. Or it would probably turn into another YPNHK.

Thank you :)

I'm really appreciating the simplicity too...the natural interactions b/w family without OTT camera or sound effects...the natural locations help add freshness too.

Yes, I'm pleasantly surprised about the understated quality to the "romance" if you will...it's very rare to find a show these days which focuses on the undercurrents more than overt behavior...Sid's family is very interesting...Reddys get annoying with their condescension sometimes but overall some interesting dynamics in all the characters.

Anushka also doesn't feel like the typical FL...she's tender hearted and naive but heartbreak has left her scarred so now she struggles with trying to harden her heart, determined to never let anyone hurt her again but she still finds herself helpless when it comes to Sid.

Thanks, bohemian...good to see you here too :) What a lovely quote you have there in your sig👏

Yes, the Sinhas absolutely remind me of the Pants without the level of madcap dysfunction I guess...lol...but the middle class simplicity is common among the families...

Err I'm not familiar with YPNHK...was that also on Sony?...all these shows seem to have such similar acronyms...haha...too long for me to type out so I'm sticking with YPN for this show for now

And I am pleasantly surprised as well.

Had no clue abt the show, was flipping channels and came across it . Then did a marthon catchup.

The show does remind me of EDKV for some reason.

Now that am hooked to it, only hope/fear is Sony lets it run its course..
