Our Take:

The story is not at all new. The audience can relate this story to multiple hindi movies. Apart from the story, the next lacking point here is too-much predictable characterization. Some twist and turn elements could have been added to bring some freshness in the plot. There is nothing surprising about the dialogues as well. The show struggles in keeping up the intriguing drama. Coming to the actors, the leads Vivaan and Eisha are well-known, and proved their acting prowess in their earlier shows. This show also proves their natural acting skills. Supporting cast are also a good bunch of actors. The audience can expect the show to bring a striking chemistry between the leads. Only the madness and romance filling up in the love story can raise the interest.

Overall:

A fair attempt by Colors, but still just a remake. The leads are the USP of the show. Their chemistry can be expected to become amazing in the coming episodes.

Our Rating:

3 out of 5
