DIL BOLE OBEROI: What is and what could have been...
*SIGH*
Here we go again with the asshole-meets-bubbly-girl-and-falls-in-luuuurve storyline… 💩💩
I have to say, I was genuinely super ecited about this spin-off since Om is literally my fav character of Ishqbaaz and I really couldn’t wait to see him get more screen time!!
Alas, that was not to be as we have a whole new show and I still haven’t seen the Om I feel in love with 😔😔
Now let’s get specific.
OM: I’m getting supremely fed up with this asshole being the ultimate leading man concept. Om was a character I fell in love with, BECAUSE he was anything BUT that. He was a super-sweet very-logical shayari-sprouting truth-seeking hippy-looking artist… who for a change did not give 2 shits about money, ego, reputation and family name AND … MOST IMPORTANTLY, he was not an abuser. I didn’t see this guy anywhere in DBO. Like literally… i didn’t see even ONE SINGLE CHARACTERISTIC 😭😭😭😭😭 GAH. Instead I saw a long-haired Shivaay in action 😳😳😧😧
My message to Gul: the IB universe does NOT need another Shivaay, since we’re still having a hard time digesting the first one 😒😒😩😩
GAURI (aka Khushi Kumari Gupta 2.0): She’s really cute, I’ll give her that. Like suuuuuuuper adorable 😘😘. Welcome to the fam girrrl!!! And honestly, more than Om and her, I can’t wait to see her and Anika interact more 😂😂😂 too much raita and womania for the Oberoi’s to handle 😂😂😂
But character wise she seemed a wee bit like she was trying too hard I guess. So it got kinda annoying at times. But I’m gonna give her the benefit of doubt since it’s like the 1st episode, it’ll take some time for her to completely settle into character without overacting. I felt that surbhi too had the same problem in the first few episodes of IB.
Overall though, I don’t really see anything new Gauri brings to the table. I get a very ‘been there, seen that’ vibe when I see her.
OTHERS: Kaali Thakur… aka Rahul dev from BB10. Lol. I thought he did a pretty decent job of making me hate him. Well done 👏👏. Also…did anyone notice his kanji aankhein??? 😬😬👀 Jhanvi 2.0 … She’s pretty…didn’t really see much more from her. Pinky 2.0… please disappear 😥😥 And random blind mom… um, hi 😓
Overall Review: DBO started off with a MEH. This show currently has nothing new to offer, in terms of characters or plotlines. Anything new they could have done *cough* Om *cough* now resembles IB 2.0, in every sense coz we now have a another shivaay, pinky, tej and jhanvi.
If 4Lions plans to keep things as it is character wise…. I dont think I’m gonna stick around for much longer coz i can get my daily dose of bad boy meets good girl in IB itself…. 🙁🙁
Fucking hell, I’m disappointed 😔😔
