Big Girls Don't Cry (BGDC)

Having had so many wonderful memories in my school years, I expected a lot from this series. Was sadly let down.

I've studied in an all girls convent. Was in one for 12 years, but the stories in this show is unbelievable and quite ridiculous.

What's with all this stick it to the man, sexually active teenagers? At their age they have an innocence and are learning but scared about the big bad world. None of that was shown.

And what is with the cast and cringe acting? Aneet Padda (Roohi) reminds me of Sara (Maxine Baker in Ginny and Georgia). They look similar, both are overacting and unlikeable.

Noor character is strong. But the actor who played her is super annoying. Overacting with her hand mannerisms.

Pluggy and that Dia characters and actors were just bad.

The rest of the cast were good. Kavyas mom will hold a special place for me.

If not for the cringe acting and weak story, this show would have been so much better.

Didn't expect BGDC to turn out to be that good! Kinda a melodramatic coming-of-age, all-girls drama as usual; however, it puts some natural efforts to make it a bit less unreal. The main strength of this series is the acting. Every actor acted well. From Puja Bhatt to Aneet Padda, everyone did justice to their role. I want to mention Aneet Padda, Manjaree, Kavya Yadav, Shataf Figar and Raima Sen, as they impressed me differently with their acting. Some comedy seemed unnecessary, though I appreciate that those were equally important to unfold some of the characters and their story build-up. I am recommending this to the viewers who love watching coming-of-age dramas.

The acting is top notch ( so natural), far better than that of nepo kids of Archies ( sorry not sorry, had to mention it).

The storyline is refreshing ( modern girls in an old fashioned boarding school ). I thoroughly enjoyed every character's story. All girls are so pretty. I feel it would enjoyed the most by young adults, even elder people would enjoy it as it would help them reminisce the good old days.

The cinematography is good and soundtrack is perfect. The whole set up is pleasing. To be honest, I feel this is the best young adults drama by Indian industry ( if definitely deserves global hype).

A season 2 would be great ( introducing new characters of boys's school or something) !

I just now watched the entire show and guess what I loved it .... I loved every scene of the show ... it's just so good.... highs ups and lows ...it has everything ...the versatility of the actors ...their highly perplexed character ... it all makes the show ...a super duper hit show for me .

The scenes felt so connecting .

The show shows good and bad times in a teens life while growing up and moving towards adulthood .

The end is so satisfying and was not so predictable . It has a happy ending .

The industry need series like this ...where the character are so involving and impressive .

Their bewildered and sentimental scenes are heart touching .

I would specially appreciate the actors and the entire team for their great work . Truly admirable .

If you're looking for sisterhood and the feelings and complications involved in friendships this totally delivers.

This show is very sweet and shows us how falling out from friendships doesn't always mean it's the end, fighting it and working back on it is the main highlight.

It is delivered with interesting acting and dialogues; they do feel somewhat gimmicky in the first two episodes, but it grows on you.

The cinematic angles and the close-up shots were unexpected, but the lighting and production design has been given a very high attention to detail that make the show what it is.

I would recommend watching it's light and hearty where it needs to be and soft and emotional too.
