Fans are telling Anirudh to bring Jenshad back in a new story - one where the love track starts immediately. They were upset that they couldn't witness more of adiya's Married life in BP as the love story started late, so they want to see romance straightaway.
If there's 1 important lesson to learn from BP debacle, is all audience- young and online and trp audience - love romance. ITV cannot survive without romance. Unfortunately BP had no takers on tv and young Jenshad shippers were impatient due to no romance between the leads for almost 6 months.
Of course BP's story is about the leads losing spouses so it will look weird if they fell in love with each other too quickly. Hence such tropes have no takers and Low trps(by Low I mean no 2 + trps). All the other new shows that started last year like Ishq Sabah Allah and Naagin and Krishna challe London all started their love tracks very quickly.

Hey Shabla I didn't say Ani and ph did any injustice to the show. I just said that perhaps if they had informed the fans about the Creative differences and channel interference earlier, we could have tried to tweet to Colours not to do so. Colors has a PR team that checks the pulse of SM fans and would read their tweets online. By keeping silent, no one knew anything was wrong and couldn't help until it was too late. And many foreign fans kept blaming the Writers Pakriti and Ishita and wanting them to be replaced.

P.S. of course there is no guarantee that Colours will listen to fans but if we don't try we will never know. But it's too late now.

Why is this discussion still going on?? @romancefan how hard is it to accept Channel was at fault. If you don't know the full information, don't start blaming Ani sir or PH needlessly.

One thing is sure some scenes in tis 8 months we could clearly see channel interference bt wat abt rest. was it channel? Or trp pressure? Or makers being inovative or may be actual story line..what ever the reason but result is our show is offair..we bp fans hav least patience compare to others..last day live was for 20-30 mins ter ani sir was in tears 4-5 times tat answered a lot..see 2nd live of jenshad ter r saying only one thing repeatedly tat was "TRP TRP" agree or nt .bp was always on red mark..its future had always been depend on trp,which is the sadest thing in itv...but yes channel is 95% at fault..rest 5? Makers or fans

There are few things I wish for ITV-
1. Channels remove their interference in scripts completely, if they have issues with numbers then inform the makers to look into the script. They know their baby more than channel doctors. Give the story atleast 6 months or even 4 months to lay the ground work before even considering any sort of interference in the plot.
2. Audience to turn more patient. Not all stories are about romance only and that too conventional romance and even romance takes time to develop in a complex plot. Most good stories suffer because audience who reviews on SM is not patient and wants things asap and channels give in to that demand. (A lot of love stories in finite foreign shows don't begin until 6-7 episodes and sometimes its even more. Friends took 1.5 season, TVD took 4 seasons to show Delena, Arrow took 1 season complete to show Oliver-Laurel and 3 seasons to show Olicity, Turkish, Chinese and Korean shows which are about romance too take half the season to actually begin the romance).
3. PH and channels got to sign the contracts carefully with both parties having fair share of points in their favor and abide by it.
4. Makers/Channels to not always give in to fan pressure and compromise with the plot of the story. One deviation can be of major blow to the entire plot. Some Fans are always gonna be impatient with what they get and some demands are not worth considering. Some times it may be considered but not always.
5. If possible, go for seasonal format.
6. TRP system becomes more transparent and programming schedule improves with variety of content and genres.

Otherwise shows like BP and many other will continue to suffer if ITV sticks to just one typical formula.

In indian tv there are no work ethics. Any show has to be given atleast 6 months to allow it to settle in. Problem with these channel's is that they expect instant results within the 1st month itself especially when it's high budget show like BP. They shouldn't meddle with the script at all. Let creatives do their job. If numbers are still low after 6 months, then decision to axe off the show should be taken but offair news has to be told in advance so makers can give a decent closure.

Experimenting with different genres as well so there is something to watch for everyone. Too many shows in the name of supernatural and saas bahu drama have become a laughing stock.

seasonal format needs to be there. Work pressure on Actors is less and story doesn't end up going haywire or dragging for years

TRP system needs to be changed. Something where a larger sample are included in the rating system

And yes audience need patience. Especially the ones on SM. Its a tv show not a film

Low TRP is just the made up story. Just like the voot offer, which the actors and the production house declined. The decision to prematurely end the show was made long back just the notice and voot story happened lately. The show ended either due to creative differences or a big politics was played withour beloved show to bring in the two new shows. How a channel who couldn't manage to air BP in time could lately manage every show on time.
Anyways whatever is the inside story we would never no. But the way BP was rushed to end no show deserves this kind of treatment even the ones with lower TRPs, every show, production house and actors deserve some sort of dignity. ColorsTv will have to pay for the injustice done to our show. No sane director with a good story will approach such unprofessional channel and neither will the sane audiences watch this channel. I have switched to Netflix and AmazonPrime TV to pehle se hi badnaam tha ColorsTv ne apne sath dusre channels ko bhi badnaam kar diya. Bepannaah was the only show I watched on TV at the prime time.

Both creative differences and politics by colors was the reason why BP ended. Many people question why the show was made to end suddenly but the reason is clear. PH were annoyed with channel for meddling with the story. Who wouldn't be? Ani sir spent 2 years working on the script which he called his dream project. To not be given the freedom to tell the story in the way he wrote it would have upset him. And cinevistas are not like certain producers who don't know the meaning of story telling. Cinevistas shows are different. Eg EHMMBH was about 2 sisters, EHT a revenge drama, DMG medical based story. They didn't want to compromise anymore on quality to please the channel.




I think that's why channel played dirty politics with the show by deliberately not starting episodes on time and then giving PH only 1 week to wrap things up
