Acting is not a forte in this show, not that they are horrible or anything but it is not great either. Zayed is not a great actor but here his character is understated, so it suits him and is not jarring. I always find Vatsal hams a bit and he was a little over the top though I guess they wanted to establish the contrast between the brothers and hence the clear demarcation, though as characters all 3, Ranveer, Kabir and Aanchal are intriguing. Nikita is not great either but her body language is commanding, I guess her posture really helps here. I only find that she looks really tired especially around the eyes in certain scenes. I found the thing with the fidget-spinner quite annoying though I do think its a tick with him, something that probably helps to calm the impulsive Kabir and make him think.
Screenplay has been good for the 1st 2 episodes. The show isnt without flaws but it does intrigue you.

I saw the first episode yesterday, I think the episode was pretty much about laying down the three characters and their interactions towards others...

I for one hope the editing gets better or music to this show gets better, because the intro of Ranvir was let down, unless we were only suppose to see this from Aanchal and family watching on tv. Not just that i felt Ranvir and Kabir's mother's intro felt flat too.

I also felt there was no on-screen presence of Zayed coming through with Ranvir. I felt Vatsal has presence. Two characters who are different in demeanor should come through but only Kabir felt like he has screen presence.

Why do i feel like Aanchal who played her mum and brother in the scene with dealing with them and playing them both, will come into play in how she deals with Ranvir and Kabir... that's what i felt this scene was kinda telling him
