I'm just wondering is it only me or someone else also thinking the same... !!
I'm a die-heart fan of ARSHI.. So started to watch this show just because of Sanaya..
Probably the same reason as 99.99% of us here...although I think some here aren't actually even watching the show but what the hey...the more the merrier.๐
But with the days passing by, I'm realizing that this is just another saas-bahu drama.. the story teller has nothing novel to convey.. Well UB has a big scope here that I can see.. Do you think perhaps you might be rushing into judgement just a little too soon here? Agree it looks like it's going the saas bahu route but I'm not sure if it's going to be the traditional way though as CC is no shrinking violet who'll cover her head with her pallu and Maji her way through an episode.What makes me hopeful that CC might be different is that Sanaya said that the narration was very good...I have faith in her judgement. I have yet to see a storyteller on Indian TV who has something different to covey. Even the ones who start off with a promising concept usually fall onto the tried and tested path. Tomorrow will be just the 16th episode of the show...in my view the storyteller hasn't even had a chance to show whether or not they have something new to convey. Also I'm guessing that the main story will hit our screens after IPL, right now the cv's are just laying the foundations.
but still trying to find out why Sanaya chose this show on the first place... will be eager to hear her interview what she liked about this role anyway... Was she so desperate that didn't give much thought before signing it?? Frankly, I'm not finding this as a 'unique' role all.. Compared to Khushi, this role is so so so flat (completely my opinion friends, please don't BASH me..)!!! Such HUGE contrast it is !! I think I read you said that you've heard Sanaya's interview as to why she chose this role and she can say it better than anyone of us here. I'm surprised at you asking if Sanaya would sign without thinking because one quality of Sanaya's that has always come to the fore for me is her intelligence and after IPK how could she possibly be desperate when she was in demand.
Neither Khushi nor Chhanchhan are unique. characters The bubbly innocent small town girl who comes to the big city has been done a hundred times but what made Khushi 'unique' was Sanaya's portrayal of the role. Khushi was an in your face character so the impact came sooner but I'd say give Sanaya a chance to make the same impact with the more conservative (compared to KKG) ChhanChhan. The fact that there is a HUGE contrast in the roles...isn't that a good thing? I do disagree a little with you here as I don't think the contrast is that great but I can see Sanaya toning her natural bubbliness down a notch to differentiate between KKG and CC.
I know with time Manav-Chanchan chemistry will improve and many of us might be hooked to it.. but for me, the STORY plays the main role.. and so far there is no NOVELTY here.. I doubt there will be in future...
Tough Pull for Sanaya.. My Good Wishes with HER..
As far as the story is concerned the ChanMan chemistry is secondary. After the last two days episodes I hope that changes and the cv's will include it in the show because regardless as to what level FK's acting improves he knows how to do romance and there is a spark between Sanan even though they are standing a couple of feet apart. I used to think that story was king but after Sanaya's last show when I was totally hooked even after the actual story was long dead and buried I think a lot of factors matter.
A few people are talking about 'novelty' and I'm having a hard time understanding what they mean in context to this show. Isn't the whole concept of the Sarabhai family and the dogs novel? The way the follow up to the dowry issue was handled with the computer classes, wasn't that novel? True I haven't seen a lot of dramas but I've never seen a doggie birthday party before. The point is while the concept might not be new the executions and content do seem to be.
I will be watching CC till the last day because when Sanaya Irani comes on screen she just brings a smile to my face and it's never hard for me to watch her.
