the reasons for low trps in india are simple...timeslots going awry, no telecast of atleast one episode every month, lack of promotions abt the show or slot changes. as for the show itself the makers do not maintain momentum with the main s/u story. for instance only after 6 months of the show starting did they give an indication that s/u love story may happen...after that for 2 months they ignored it...then some decent episodes in august...then nothing in september. again oct-nov were dedicated to s/u with it culminating in sandeep admitting that he loves urmi too. then we thought things are ready to move on sandeep backed off and then they simply lose momentum with the bhoot and loan shark episode. after that star changed the time...the confession happenned but how many saw that? after the confession again nothing except the holi and then last episodes. also since the vasudha episode only few scenes have reached chabhi had set earlier. why so? the makers must sit back and think.
in comparision the k shows have too much momentum, have prime time slots and are well promoted in star plus or otherwise. if star allows the show back they must also give it support in terms of slots and promotions.
and yes we are supporting the show as much as we can but maybe it will help when u go to delhi and make enquiries. plz try to meet the right ppl and put our case forward.

i cant see wat else they can do. they have to show sumin related to the mohalla... they cant shw sum1 dyin evry episode like K serials or there wud be no difference between Chabi n K.

If they had shwed S/U love story evry episode then i bet the shw wud av finished in dec... they made people wait that's y we like their jodi

there has to be a balance b/w mohalla and love story...last few months the balance was tilted in favor of mohalla. hopefully in the future the balance is maintained as it was in the first one year.

i think episode waz better b4 the confession and diwali coz Urmi and Sandeep waz always funnish... Urmi tried to giv hint to Sandeep and Sandeep knowingly acted as if he is innocent and dont understand Urmi. i fink they sud av dragged that a little bit oncoz since diwali it hasnt been that comedy

I also think there shud av been episode of hw mohalla found out abt Urmi and Sandeep's love after holi. They showed it ba it was only abt the ladies and it waz so brief that i dont even remember

I am just worried wat the next episode will be like coz the story will go out of the mohalla and also the fact that the 4 vellas knw abt Urmi's love they wont try to flirt or impress Urmi anymore and that will reduce a little bit humur i recon

you said it.

also darpan, showing sandeep urmi more does not mean their story needs to be progressed or some twist needs to be added. There can be fantastic sandeep urmi episodes like kindney stone, urmi's birthday where no major changes happen but max they come a little closed to each other in the end.

very much like real life.

They did it very well in 1st year.. I hope they do it next too..

Frankly...i was quite happy with the show overall...ya .. definitely an episode here and there was a bit boring. and not great....but like i said no show can bring out excellent tracks continuously....on the whole i think it was one hour of fantastic entertainment..i am not too fixated on u/s..but there is no doubt that they light up the show..overall nice mohalla stories with fun laughter light entertainment would be great!!!.i just hope it comes back......i miss it..its the only show i followed religously...i keep glancing at others here and there when i am in..but nothing has got me hooked like this one did...its too bad really!!!...

the mohalla episodes havent been great either recently...most of them would end with colnelgunj ki jai which was quiet cheesy. they have done better mohalla episodes earlier like the soldier's death one or the ram lila ones. the rangila ke bapu episodes were unimaginative. all in all if the show returns i hope the makers have introspected on what went wrong that the show forget abt adding viewers had started to get even the die hard fans turned off.

Chabi was & is the better entertainer than anything else out there currently. We're not comparing it to any other show but to itself, the issue is that the Chabi of late didnt have the same flavour as it used to.

That's not to say it was a bad flavour, it was just different to the old magic...and the problem is that the new flavour didnt draw in viewers. Those of us that got hooked on the old flavour were beginning to get frustrated.

There was a time when we would drop whatever we were doing to watch the latest epi, even making sure to leave work early, or to mke plans for later so that we would be home. The last month or so, we would have been happy catching the repeats, or waiting for the update on here as many people were doing.

The only thing worth ACHPM's competition is ACHPM itself and the last month was losing the competition from the earlier episodes.😊
