I love watching this show. Initially when it came on I thought it's boring but past week I've begun watching it it's a nice, subtle ahow. Abhi definitely has to be one the best written MLs I've seen yet & I hope they don't screw up his characterisation for the sake of TRPs/masala. Meera is.. Meera.
I relate a lot to her but at the end she is the prototype of a manic pixie girl.. But with a twist. There is that spontaneous composition, desire & a genuine love for helping people & spreading smiles. I adored her line in the Intro promos, "Bass, Khush rehna chahtee Hoon Papa!" It was said with such simple joy, that that is her Oife's-Mission, and her family didn't us west and.. Because they're too busy chasing their own happiness. After-all, isn't that what we all seek ultimately. Happiness, however we define it & wherever we seek it. Abhi is a simple guy, compassionate & no-nonsense, slightly jaded yet with such a solid head on his shoulders--- But he's also a feminist. He doesn't need to shout it from rooftops or was Steinem, N Wolf or Feminine Mystique.. It is something that he instinctively usnerstands, believes in & practices, the contrast then of the "well-educated, urban & classy" UMC (upper-middle class) Aman with his self-righteous & arrogant sexism intact, was all the more jarring. Goes to show how Education, Class & Understanding; are all tools & platforms & not pathways for understanding/mental/moral/emotional enlightment/understanding. Seen too many Amans in Delhi & there're loathsome & vile, big pic on their brethren!!!
All this is conveyed with the subtlest gestures &
Acting! The effortlessness of the story recitation on tv, is this good chiefly because of the actors. This cast is excellent!!!! ESP the lead actors!!! Abhi & Meera are such confident actors & I am presuming it's their debut show-- ESP for Meera (I think I've seen Abhi before..) it's all the more impressive!!! Meera grabbed my attention from the beginning promos itself, I thought she would be very good but she truly is living upto her character so well!! I would've found her character annoying otherwise but because she is SO good as ab actress, I only laugh & smile K think she's so silly-cute. 😆 Like an over-grown girl with a sprig of flowers in her basket & a bunch of colourful balloons.. Yet she has her 'Meeraisms', her moments of cheery vulnerability & her own brand of weird wisdom.. Abhi impresses me more lately. ESP today. He was so cute when she was talking about "the laali ke nishaan" on his shirt 😆
