Did you guys know that she was nominated for two awards at Star Screen on starplus?

One for the best comic actor which went to Ekta's brother Tushar kapoor in Golmaal returns and one for supporting actress in Phoonk which went to some one else.

She is a damn good actress! But she does need a good plot to showcase her talent just like other talented actors in Kasamh Se. Arunima was the other actress who never was given an opportunity to show her talent.

Sidharth (Ranveer) was the other guy...Maasi who is no longer in the show was a damn good actress as well.
Anyways it's not just important to have a good ensemble, it's also important for them to have meaty roles that will display their skills....

Shoba, there were so many people who were given a raw deal or else the character was bucchered unnecessarily. Amongst the people who also were in the serial, Tarun was one character who could have done a good job but they made him behave like OCD inflicted person for Bani. and apart from Jigs another person whom I admired was Ranveer (dont remember his original name) and his character too has gone for a complete toss. I would have loved to see other tracks getting developed in KS as well when all the leads were going on a vacation or anything. But unfortunately they decided to use body doubles and continue shooting bizarre stuff !

Yeah she was but was'nt She nominated in Negative actress category for Phoonkl if i am not wrong 😕 alongside Best Comdeian for Golmaal Returns.
Sho,u should watch Ashwini is star one weekly soap Sidhanth.It was story around a lawyer ,played by Pawan Shankar our very own OCD Tarun Lee whose life was around winning cases come what may and money mattered but later an incident changes his life and he starts taking up cases with a cause. Ashwini plays no nonsense and fire headed cop ACP Nethra Menon there she was truly amazing there with short and gelled hair.(Nope no romantic angle b/w PS and AK they are shown as true professionals and friends).
I really hope Sidharth and Aurinima get some nice soaps where they can display there acting talents.

Swathi,

You are right, I really liked Tarun Sablok and I think he could have played a really important role in the show and Pia was the other, she has a lot of spunk and her character was soooooo butchered. Roshni Chopra and Pawan did great jobs as Pia and Tarun respectively. We hated Pia's character but was always amused by her spoilt yet loving role in the beginning of the show. Yep! What a loss of talent....

Archie,

You are right, you know the chemistry between Rano and Ranveer was amazing...I really think they should play leads on a show or at least strong supporting characters.

No, I never got to watch Sidhanth. But I can imagine both Ashwini and Pawan doing a great job, I actually like court shows a lot....I would have enjoyed watching the show.

Yes, you are right, Ashwini's nomination was for negative role, my bad!!

Pia was brat always but she wanst evil,she did love her sisters yeah she also wanted to be rich and dreamt of fanciful life. She was one who always stood up against Jai and Jigaysa whenever they said anythng to bani. She was one who goes to jai and smacks sense when bani was jailed for hitting ranveer on head.In initial episodes whn bani's manager at Mt.Abu insults bani,it was same pia who teaches that man a lesson.
Suddenly after ONS the character of Pia went beyond me,she can fall in love with jai but nothing can explain her drugging jai to get him to bed.The idea of trying to kill bani or framing her for sahil muder and so on were simply cruel.
In short ONS in all directions killed KS and its characters to a large extent,though after ONS they did get ample opportunities to undo the mistakes ,the creatives always pushed KS down furthur than pulling it up.

Shazia:

She was definitely a spoilt girl from the beginning, but she was real in her love toward her sisters. When the whole extra-marital affair started, she became thoroughly vicious and mean. She wanted Bani to die and take away everything Bani had, she did not even have any mercy toward Bani as she was pregnant with her two kids. That was totally unlike the original Pia we all liked.

In life, you do come across people who are really like her. They are slightly spoilt and have a huge ego, but they are not merciless and cruel toward their own sisters.

KS has been famous for butchering all their characters! When the lead protagonists, Jai and Bani did not escape the butcher's knife, the others had no chance in hell escaping from the "Creatives and their creativity"!!
The older generation had/have so much potential, I still wonder why the creatives made mince meat out of all them. The characters either started off with certain characteristics and ended with almost being the opposite or they did not get properly used by the creatives!
I totally agree, a talented starcast has no value unless the screenplay is good and they have good scenes to perform.
It looks like the creatives have purposely butchered KS, the whole thing reeks of some kind of sabotage! I wonder how much Ekta is involved in all her serials. But reading articles of late, it seems Ekta trusted some people who did not justify this trust. Hence one can see the sacking/resigning of so many of her people, including the infamous Niveditha Basu!
Well, its not humanely possible for Ekta to look into all her serials, I agree. I just wish that the people she had relegated the authority to, especially for KS, had not given it a step-motherly treatment!

sheena dear, ashwini is really a great actress, now a days sometimes i m watching her in sidhant and like archi mentioned she is playing ACP or DCP and she was too good in her acting and of course pawan is also a doing a brilliant job in that show.
I think BT should be given award of best PH for butchering characters, but u know what BT has suffered also because of their attitude.
i have noted that in BT serials only the main leads are given importance and side characters are never more than a doormat while other production houses try to give importance to many more characters along with leads and that is key to their new found success.
