I actually think Akshay made the right choice signing PV, the role was the opposite of his character in IPK and helped get him more recognition as an actor which is a good thing. Hopefully he will get more offers
Yes Mandy, no idea why the mess in IPK happened that way. If the PH wanted to tell that their lead actor is quitting then wouldn't it make so much sense to give out a press conference and confirm what they want to do next. I still don't understand why they had to leak the news to some random journalist and authorize her to create panic in the fandom.
Having said that I have no doubt that the serial closing was a pre-meditated decision both on the part of the PH and the channel. They never intended to have the show on air after Nov 30, Channel wanted to have the show running for it had SPL live in the background and PH was forced to show 2 months of crap. My only gripe is that they could have closed down the show much more gracefully showing some good vintage IPK, instead we got Sheetal and Mrs.India track and blame on Barun for wanting to take a break. I still am yet to hear the 3 movies that Barun apparently signed during the end IPK months one which SP kept on telling to everyone who called. All I see is only one other movie that Barun signed after he came back to India in Dec.
