Everest

Everest is a heart touching TV series.

it shows what being a girl in some families feel like where parents are small minded who think that only boys can do certain things.

it gives you an impression of how Mount Everest is like and how it feels like to climb it.

The story is really touching and gets interesting as it goes ahead.

i wish this was much longer than it is and wish that a second series of this comes soon.

its not a spoiler but just a general review of what it is like.

thumbs up to the producer Ashutosh Gowariker and i hope you can keep making such TV series's

I have never been a fan of Indian serials, basically because most of it run way out of logic and interest. But this changed the face of it, I really got intrigued from the very first trailer but somewhere inside I had this fear that ultimately it will fall down to sub-par standards set by the daily soaps, but it did not. This show is an undertaking of the master Bollywood director Ashutosh Gowariker who made his TV debut as the producer of this show. This show is part of Star Plus's immense undertaking, "Women Empowerment". The story is about this girl named Anjali whose dream is to climb Mt.Everest in an attempt to win her father's love who had the same dream but could never achieve it. As we progress through the show the story becomes more of a "Pilgrimage" to find ones inner self, we see Anjali fighting her limitations to achieve her dream. Gowariker stated that: "The whole idea of the show actually began with an insight that what are you willing to do for your dreams?"

Its very much obvious that a great deal of research was done. The shooting took place in actual Everest Base Camp (in Nepal) and Dokriani Glacier (in India) and the actors were made to attend Mountain Climbing classes prior to the starting of the shoot. Even though it achieves what most of the Indian shows fail to do , i.e. meaningful story telling, it fails in certain aspects too. Most of the times the characters are all black and white, too romantic. Sometimes it seems a little bit too stretched, and some unnecessary sub-plots pop up occasionally. But overall it was a fresh change from the painstakingly irritating daily soaps that frequent the Indian television. I hope it is a sign of better things to come, and if it really is then the future seems bright for Indian television.

The actors have done a remarkable job though some of them are too monotonous. The director has done a fair job but he could have done better. Music for the show has been composed by none other than A.R.Rahman, and though it feels just good but sometimes it sounds too gloomy.

I recommend everyone to watch the show, it really deserves to be seen.

A big big Thankyou to Ashutosh Gowariker for taking out his precious time and making a TV serial, so inspiring, so straight, so precise and what not. You have done an incredible job. If the vision of the monotonous TV serials is changed and shifted to such story lines, they can achieve laurels.

The cast selected was so apt that we could get involve in the story, not only as an audience but sometimes having goosebumps when the shot was so sharp. The whole setup, the aura ,the great script and I can go on praising the efforts made. All I can wish for is to have such great series coming up on the television, a daily dose of inspiration touching our hearts :D

what a befitting and superb FINALE of a grand show..Clap Ended with a bang, just like it started!Smile Akanjali is a treat to watch today... They clicked , they shared and they confessed ...

What a heavenly kiss... EmbarrassedBlushingi thought they wouldn't show it, citing TV audience viewer ship..but, NAAH... it surpassed by expectation.Smile.. what a cute scene it was.. from Anjali's playful gesture at making him confess and then , confessing what she feels, to the KISS... it was so beautifully done...The FBI of the whole journey of them together... and then , realizing what they just did... was superbly portrayed..ClapClap BTW, is it me who thought , aka sh looked extra handsome today??...Embarrassed

some people never change, and roongta is one of them.. he is again on a search for someone else to steal the sarpeach! LOL his face was worth watching confronting aka sh. aka sh is more confident now, like col said, his life will change for the better now..

Reena- Arjuna too... I loved them... his explanation of not submitting was so apt and heart-touching... finally he acknowledged love and is at peace now.Clap loved the character of Reena.

Anjali-jag-at- 'main Anjela Ki papa ho on'.. lovely scene, no unnecessary drama, very crisp and totally loved his emotions today... and at the award ceremony! he is watching his daughter get President's AwardClap

Finally, the END CREDITS..OMG! they showed it just like a film... absolutely stunning, it felt like a beautiful movie got over...

So it ended.Confused one of the best shows seen by me in recent times... i guess good things to end one day. I will miss the forum, checking out people's posts.. analysis.

It's a good experience watching Everest on Television screen.The story revolves around Anjali, a girl who wants her father's acceptance.

I personally love all the characters especially Sarita,Shika Amma and Tara characters which explains about unconditional Love.

Col.Abhyankar,Jagat Singh Rawat,Vidhaan and his fathers are perfect for military officers.

Though Arjun Sabarwal behaves rude with every other characters his past makes us to cry.same emotions come for Chaand

Mr.Roongta as a business tycoon played his hands very well.

A true inspiration for everyone.Awesome background music by A.R.Rahman.

Eachand every episode has a message for the viewer which is highly motivational.All over it's a great journey watching EVEREST!!!
