When i heard about the Office being remade i was a 100% sure that they were going to ruin it ( The trailer did not help).
The script writing is actually good in my opinion , They have done a great job of taking inspiration from NBC's office and adapting it to the Indian scenario . Some of the casting and acting is really good , but the rest unfortunately , not so much . Here are the main things that i felt actually ruined this remake :-
1. Michael Scott - The guy playing him is a good actor , no doubt , but he cannot pull Michael Scott . This makes soo many of his moments downright cringey , and not the funny cringe that NBCs office had , just cringe.
2. Jim and Pam - Again both are doing a great job, but just cant live up to the high expectations . Jim does not feel like Jim , and there seem to be a very forced chemistry between Jim and Pam
So it boils down to this , if you haven't seen the original Office , you might actually like this show but if you have , you may not have a very good experience.
