If you have seen left right left back then, you can't just help but appreciate the freshness this show brought on television. It was a youth oriented series packaged as a drama for all the audiences at the primetime slot. There were many people who used to follow this show be it children, youth, adults or even old people. For any show or a movie, the basic thing that needs to work is writing, people mostly give credits to actors but they forget if the writing is bad, nothing can save a show which is exactly happened with this one after 200 episodes which is pretty much the same story of all daily soaps. Either you drag it or pull it off, these days channels have become impatient, they take off shows pretty quick but LRL was lucky in that sense, it continued to run with lower ratings for some time.
I liked the basic premise of the show, it was refreshing to see a female lead having an author backed role and having the whole story around her. the rest of the actors, supporting characters each of them did great job. The creatives took the show seriously and in no time it was one of the highest rated show on TV. But like most of the soaps, once the show crossed 150-200 episodes, it went out of steam. Worse, there were creative differences between the actors, crew and producers. Too many replacements and two three major actors were shown the door. If it was not enough, the show suffered with a great creative (Satyam Tripathy, who was initially the creative head and writer left the show midway) and it never came back on track.
There were several loose ends in the show. The Biggest Blunder they showed was Major Nair (Deepraj Rana) Who was a working agent for the mastermind MD Gehlot was seen continuing as the principal of KMA and the whole faculty respects him. WTH seriously! Whatever the fresh wave of new concepts of TV brought by star one shows and LRL was quickly put off. We are back to those silly dramas and it's been a while that I have even seen the face of teleivision.
So yeah thank you LRL for all the memories.
Love to Priyanka Bassi, Vikas Manaktala, Gazal, Harshad everyone...
