This movie, oops serial, man wat a mistake I made right in the beginning. Don’t worry calling this serial a movie too is an understatement! A movie wraps up in about 3 hours in India while serials like this, that are supposed to end in less than 30 minutes are streched to what looks like 30 years. About half a decade ago, I remeber this program starting. I switched through the channels all the time and never caught it completely. Rightly so, coz once I did, that half an hour gave me half a day to trash something real bad!
Now, about half a decade later from that, my whole family loves to follow the serial. They catch it every time it airs and are so interested. Well I ask them what’s so good watching the serial....pathetic direction where the motive is to keep stretching the story, or to watch retarded people like Abhay and Mahi on screen. What really surprises me is that some people know all these drawbacks and are still willing to catch such a terrible serial!
Nothing more to say about it than these four words of advice to all sensible people:
’’STAY AWAY FROM THIS!’’ OKAY? I think four words get tedious for some people (surprising that half a decade didn’t!) So lemme put it in one word to describe the serial---AWFUL!!!
The camera and colors are horrible. The lens looks the same all the time with no gloss whatsoever. Negative characters remain negative for years and positive remain positive for years. So it becomes positive vs. negative all the time. If one party every time tries to solve something, the other party refuses. A new character can jump in at all times and the director succeeds in making this look like a never ending saga! Hats off to people who can stand such a misery. However at the same the VERY SAME PEOPLE need my word of ADVICE! You won’t have to move so far...just go online and read Captain Charisma’s review on Kkusum, u’ll know what your next move should be. But that’s not guaranteed since a lot of you people might already have been advised before by sensible people like me, it’s just that u never got it...lolx!
Kkusum has some pathetic actors. While Kkusum is changed twice Nausheen Ali to Mansi Joshi to I dunno whom? But still all the Kkusums have a flair for acting and they do justice to their roles. It’s just sad to see such talented actresses wasted in such an inconsequential, ridiculous in the so called name of ’’INSPIRING!’’ My foot inspiring! Add to the mix Mahi, the actress wears the same expression all the time and fails in whatever she has to do against Kkusum. She used to be good in her other serials, which I just caught a glimpse of (since they too were all Kkekta Kapoor I couldn’t see em all)! But here in Kkusum this actress is forced to play a vamp and she has no versatility whatsoever, she fails miserably in the negative role. All negative characters from Arundhati to Nakul to Harry look like nonactors who struggle portraying their parts. Kumud was good in the beginning while now she looks monotonous with the same crying expressions all the time on her. She has started to look pathetic in this role! Amit Sareen as Kshitij is the saving grace of the show as the guy dances well, has a good comic timing, looks natural, and most of all has a charming personality. This guy wasn’t impressive in the beginning but gradually climbed his way up in the hearts of many fed up viewers, finally giving them a reason to catch at least a glimpse of the serial. This guy certainly deserves better offers. Chetan Hansraj as Garv has a flair for bright roles...Garv’s role he’s a complete misfit and looks like a crybaby. Therefore it was good to see him opt for the role of Josh in Kaisa Yeh Pyar Hai...a more bright character that suits his persona more! Anuj Saxena as Abhay and the girl playing Kali can be nominated as the weakest characters EVVER ONSCREEN. In their respective ways, they both have BIG credulities. Meaning they believe whatever any person tells them and react against their dear ones even if some outsider tells them something against them! What pathetic roles and what poor performances. Kkusum surely DESERVES a BIG SKIP for the sake of such people’s irritating presence.
Overall, the program HAMS! Period, why I am giving it even a one star surprises me when I should’ve skipped even writing the REVIEW! I think I am just doing so for my satisfaction that I will get after trashing this serial in my review. Please comment!
Captain!
