I think that in order to hog limelight and ensure central attention on themselves stars produce serials and smriti irani is no different as with virrudh apart from producing the show she is acting and co-writing the show but by which she has harmed the show.the serial is a nice departure from the usual rape kitchen politics foccused shows with its strong script content but unfortunately the shows viability to viewers is seriously hampered due to miscasting and indifferent camerawork which makes the show appear uncomfortable and boring to viewers.i think smriti should have just produced the show and had not played the central character and cast someone else as she looks completely unsuitable for the role and her chemistry does not matches with the hero and she looks older then him and her brand of acting also looks same from her kyunki set otherwise the show is interesting to watch Virrudh is the political social family drama which revolves around dj singhania(vikram gokhale) who is a rich and powerful newspaper owner who believes in making friendship with right people and also uses his nwspaper as a vendetta tool for his rich friends as a result of which he is constantly at loggerheads with sushant(sushant singh).
A honest value ladden journalist who also is his daughter vasudhas(smriti) boyfriend but cannot do anything to him as vasudha is his favouraite daughter who incidentally also is his illegitimate child out of wedlock as a result of singhanias rape on shalini(zarina wahab) 20 years ago .the serial also has subplots of a drunken hate spewing daughter(achint kaur) and jealous and villanous relatives like his brother(bhandari) and his son(chetan hansraj) who are looking to steal his property which nows looks all set to become the main track of serial
performance
dj singhania-vikram gokhale is good as powerful, manipulative and villanous
singhania
vasudha-smriti irani does not suit the role and her acting also looks same
sushant-sushant singh is ok as sushant a journalist
chetan hansraj acts his usual self as a greedy nephew
achint kaur overacts as a sozzled daughter
