A for Effort, D for Story
Food analogy: Lukewarm milk tea with the promise of masala!
The first half of the story felt very different from the Second half, almost as if two different writers wrote them independently and stitched them together without much discussion. It had good premise of being a nostalgic teenage puppy love cum timeskipped mature heartbroken re-love. I understand that these kinds of storylines are hard to pull off but the writers just gave up. There was nothing and a lot of happening at the same time. There was a very dark plot point of abuse which i felt was not resolved well which leaves a bitter taste in my mouth. Even the romance curve just goes whoosh whoosh, hot and cold, sense and no sense. Only saving grace were the leads individually. The did a great job as a stand alone but because of the plot point of the ML leaving the FL in the beginning (not a spoiler as this is in the trailer) , it just felt like the characters always had a wall inbetween them due to FL's lack of trust, Which led the chemistry to feel flat due to the lack of buildup. Overall, the actors did the best with what they Had. You can watch for the 2nd couple which was cuter for me.
Give it a watch only if you have time to kill.
This series is not exactly very bad. It just under delivered.
