Neil why are you so funny...ye ja kaha raha tha BTW..?

He cannot even wait there for 1 sec..Romance is equal to 1 sec look at lips and then go behind the neck to pickup a cup...oh god other shows have these scenes as funny ones...hero cheating heroine...that too in a much better way...

See its established Neil is uncomfortable.....

But can't they direct a little better.....like in the laddoo scene...it's not that difficult

As I had written earlier, a close-up, better angles and some tehraav in the scene could have easily made up for it....or even a slow-motion of the same shot....simple things

And they should have stopped at 'almost kiss'.....head deviation was not necessary

first of all if Ur so uncomfortable with romance as such u shouldn't be in showbiz and u shouldn't be an actor .so when Ur in it now the least u can is do a good job rather than a sloppy one . this whole thing is such a big clownry.

It's bad direction yaar, don't know if Virat can do anything. Remember one of the BTS the amazing director was giving direction to Neil on how to hug Sai awkwardly🤣

I have a different view... theek hai if actor/actresses are not comfortable with romance scenes.....some few actors seem to be uncomfortable if they are married ....here also Aish is on sets....it might be difficult....

I have seen other shows where the leads are uncomfortable...and also read interviews where the actors spouse became uncomfortable seeing him/her romance on screen.... obviously their personal life will take priority...so chalta hai....I empathize with their position

But directors can do their job better.....just tone down the romance, make the actors comfortable, use cheat shots.....

Just my POV 😊

I think actors can be uncomfortable..have their comfort zone ..You know we all have in terms of work...but we are pushed to come out of it...only then can one Excel and will happen in every stage of life .. similarly with actors it's should be the job of the directors to push them to do certain scenes...Plus such things will not be visible to the actor while performing ..the cinematographer...the DOp the director would be getting to see it... How can they let it go...The problem is they let Neil do whatever he wants to do in such scenes..or any scenes...he is coming across very uncomfortable even in family scenes...

Yes definitely. Director should push actors to the point they can handle, talk to them & ease them into it....use good camera work.

You know regarding that discomfort we talked about - I think that is at the heart of all of Neil's acting woes. That 'persona' he tries to put on - that makes him look concious, artificial and compromises with his expressions and dialogue delivery. When I joined the forum, I had written a post on that - but nobody seemed to agree with me.....so I thought it was just me feeling it.

I remember how he was in DABH - after he befriends the FL he was shown to be soft-hearted, polite and respectful - and Neil managed to pull off that persona convincingly and with none of the discomfort we see in Virat. All he had to do was repeat the performance in ghum. But here he over-thought and tried too hard. I feel that might be because he wasn't very confident - 13 years in the industry and no lead roles. Might have been too desperate to be accepted as the ML. I remember the first scene I watched in ghum was the GC scene when Sai asks him to run away from the marriage - I was surprised at Neil's artificiality....it put me off from watching any further. If not for Sai, I would have stopped watching the show. Even in their famous fights, I remember getting annoyed that Neil was spoiling the scene ....when Ayesha was acting so well. I now see that the same self-consciousness was at play there too. In that sense, even the previous director did not do a good job of helping him loosen up, or give him assurance (although he might have helped with the characterization). He did better with Ayesha. I think it is because of this that I like Neil better now....I think with his role becoming accepted, he has grown slightly in confidence ....and it is coming across in a few scenes good scenes now.....it looks more natural...and his emotions are looking less artificial. But he is still concious in the family scenes ....in his chakkar of pulling off a certain persona....It's not that he can't pull it off....he did it in DABH...but despite how it looks, somwhere Neil certainly has confidence issues ....

Talking of persona.....how can one forget ASR. Every scene, every shot the persona screamed ASR and with such conviction that we were indeed seeing a real person called ASR. And it maintained until the end.....The actor looks exactly opposite....droopy eyes, lazy demeanor , unkempt hair 😆.

Long essay over....fell free to skip if you wish 😆
