Tanaav 2's Gitika Ganju Dhar on show's mixed response: Business of critique today is very complex business

After the successful first season, the makers of Tanaav released the much-anticipated second season of the show recently. However, the show starring Manav Vij and Arbaaz Khan in the lead roles got mixed reviews from the viewers. Speaking about the same in a recent interview, actress Gitika Ganju Dhar, who plays an important part in the show, opened up about why the show might be getting mixed response. 

Gitika Ganju Dhar on Tanaav 2's mixed reviews

In an interview with News18 Showsha, the actress said, "The reviews for any piece of art better be mixed otherwise someone is lacing them! From comments like – Riveting drama with thrilling moments, a gripping political revenge saga to calling it edgy and an intense socio-political drama, I am reading positive opinions. I think it has a very real feel in terms of its filming."

However, the actress also urged the viewers to not judge the show by the reviews and and still watch it. She called the screenwriters and filmmakers brave by revealing that they put a lot of labour and love into what they create. "The business of critique today is a very complex business. I also feel that there is an increasing disconnect between what critics prefer and what audiences do. And so, I wonder whether it’s worth pleasing a select bunch of highbrows at the cost of a larger viewership. I think the audience knows that too,” she said.
