Omg!! Do you know the release date for season 3??? Or do we have to wait 4-5 more years like we did season 2!!
Rumors said they did 60 episodes so my guess is they already produced and requested S2 and S3 and received censorship approvals Plus it makes sense to keep the same crew to make sure everyone is available. I expect S3 in a couple of months once money returned from S2

FL is very young who has first time stepped out of her village ( that too from a village where everyone ignored…
Thanks for the double post. You made your point. I think differently.
If actors and actresses are going to perform a romantic storyline in a drama, I expect the romance to be believable and to have chemistry between the characters. However, I did not find any chemistry between them. I am not sure if it was a directorial choice or her acting skills that contributed to this lack of chemistry. As a viewer, I expect the actors to portray their characters convincingly, so that I can believe that the female lead is not just a groupie in front of her idol. The progression of love seemed to have eluded my perception entirely. From my point of view, it appeared as though he had fallen head over heels for her, while she simply went along with the situation without much thought.
My point of view. You are entitled think differently
The male lead is nearly twice the female lead age in real life but he looks like heโs in his late 20s.
I know it is a taboo subject on MDL but don't care ๐
In real life, in my opinion, age gaps are not an issue when it comes to true love. However, in dramas, actors and actresses portray different characters, and sometimes an age gap between them may be a concern. Even though it is not always the case, some actors or actresses may feel uncomfortable while performing a kissing scene with someone who is significantly older or younger than them. And viewers can easily notice that.
In this particular drama, I have seen the actors kiss, and my first thought was, "Wow! He knows how to kiss, and I am grateful that they did not show a standoffish or awkward kissing scene.". They were both professional, and I didn't notice any awkwardness. Perhaps the age difference didn't show too much physically, partly because he still looked like a handsome man in his thirties. And perhaps it was because she is a true professional. Acting is essentially the art of portraying a character through pretense.
I always thought that it might be more difficult for young actresses. However, I acknowledge that this is a biased point of view and I cannot claim to understand what it is like to be in their shoes.
I noticed something amusing - when a viewer enjoys a show and its actors, the age gap between characters is not a concern. However, if a viewer dislikes the actors or the drama, the age gap becomes a significant problem. I consider this to be biased and I admit that I am not immune to it.
My personal opinion. You are entitled to think differently.
It's definitely on my list to watch. Plus, I love the male lead. I fully agree about the directors. Too many of…
I completely agree with you. I have written about directors on my profile before. Some of them are amateurs, while others are geniuses. I can usually tell quickly after watching the first episode whether a drama is worth my time or not. For instance, if Dilraba or Irene are in it, I don't even bother giving it a chance.
