Our Take:

The show describes various stages of love and marital relationships, how people perceive their partner’s deceive and fall in dilemma to pick up a second chance in life. It emphasizes on the tough phase when one has to go through a big heartbreak after a spouse’s cheat and loss. Both Aditya and Zoya are poles apart when it comes to handle their spouses’ affair truth. Aditya instantly believes Pooja’s affair and develops strong hatred for her. Zoya doesn’t change her opinion about Yash, even when the world speaks against him. Aditya and Zoya have one thing in common, that’s their belief in loyalty in their relationships. The other characters, Yash and Pooja find love in each other, while they were pretending to be happy in their perfect marriage.

Zoya and Aditya will be ultimately finding love in each other after going through a lot of emotional turmoil. The show will highlight on Yash and Pooja’s back story about their affair and emotional connect. Zoya and Aditya will be questioning themselves to know where they failed in not being perfect for their spouses. Zoya and Aditya’s journey of self-realization will be seen. They will find love again. They will get married by going against their families and society. Their strong bond will stand out despite facing many hurdles. The characterizations are strong, contrast, distinct and right on their front.

Aditya and Zoya’s stories are interwoven well. Their immense love for their spouses is depicted well. Everything from dialogues, sets, costumes, screenplay to the stellar cast is perfect for the show. Jennifer plays the role of Zoya perfectly. She makes the character more watchable by her striking looks. Harshad is very much natural as passionate lover Aditya. The leads outshine in their portrayals. Even the other leads Sehban and Namita do complete justice with their roles. The show has a fresh appeal, even though there had been many shows around infidelity before. Bepannaah looks much more promising because of its contrast characters.

Overall:

Bepannaah is an intense love story with much emotions, drama, romance, mystery and thrill. The story begins after post marriage phase. The relationships are seen with much detailing and emotional depth. A show with a unique and heart-touching storyline.
