Stalkers are probably considering KV's exit, a victory of sorts for them which is tbh totally unrelated to their failed mission anyways... which btw will definitely continue till QH ends for totally different reasons 😆.

🤣

And then they will say they got it shut!!! 😆 Finally they will shut up!🤣

Gitey, very good topic for discussion 👏.

I do feel very bad for child artists no matter how well they act or how good the show is. As you said an ad film shoot ends in a day or two so it's ok.

The worst are these talent shows. The competition weighs so heavily on the child that it shows . Parents push them like no tomorrow and that's really sad. The kids drop out of schools for a year coz they can't handle the singing/dancing and studies. Every parent would want their child to excel but what is the extent to which they can be pushed/supported and for what kind of situations? E.g. A talent contest in school is a totally different ball game but these talent shows on TV are super taxing and stressful for the child.

We will see more Macaulay Culkins around, I guess.🤔 It is sad.

Why did KV leave Gumraah? 😕. Is it confirmed that he has signed a movie?

Soup, BS left coz he signed a movie or wanted to pursue his Bollywood dreams na? I think he clarified that later. I read somewhere that he had already told Gul he wants to join Bollywood. Of course it was a big blow to the show and his fans and the story went totally downhill after that with the kidnapping and Mrs. India track coz they were in a hurry to shut down the show and the audience was not ready to accept Viraf as ASR.

But in KSG's case no clarification was given either by the PH or Gul or the man himself.

Anu,

I will CP from what I wrote in the HS chat corner😆

My point about actors quitting in Gul's shows is: The maker has to know the limits to which she can stretch a story. I like all the actors who worked with Gul...for different reasons- some more than the other.

BS: He wanted to quit quite early - was requested to stay back- came to a point where the guy just needed a good break. His personality is not suited for Television..I don't sympathise with him much...So long as he is happy doing his movies, I guess he made the right decision. Barun couldn't handle the fame as rightly said... or he thought he had better opportunities ahead...which didn't work. Hardly matters to me after my QH experience because most certainly IPKKND would have reached a point dragged where we would have screamed to get the show shut. Barun just saved the show from inevitable disaster 6 months down the line .

KSG: He has himself explained that he had given some time for the team to rework the script so as to kill off Asad..because he needed the break- whatever reason he quoted, I am not sure. Again, hardly matters to me because Asad was butchered as a character...he had pushed his love to marry his own brother for whatever reasons...there is no redeeming a guy after that.

Now both the quitting dramas were badly handled.

Barun denied it probably because he was asked to..the news leaked out..no one knew how to handle it and the show shut down with a happy ending. Had the show run on Zee, they would have replaced ASR or killed him like Gul did with Asad.

KSG gave a time limit of 4 months and this irked the Zee guys. They just went ahead and kicked him out. Again, the news came from the PH or the Channel...The actor's explanation came last.

KV has played it very smart and I applaud him for that. He was approached to replace Asad and he refused. He was proud to enter QH as a new character and the pairing worked. It brought teh trps back. He has been throwing around hints of his unhappiness for quite some time...Aahil as a character had nothing interesting to do for four months. What is the point in being tied down to a show as a decorative piece , mumbling 'Mera Number Kab Aayega?'😆...He gave his resignation as soon as the story line was again changed to the character being hypnotised by a satanic witch (U have to see it to believe it.😆 It is worse than the Ghost show that came after HS!🤣) until the time his heroine came to save him!

He handled it quite neatly and announced his decision before Zee could make it look like they kicked him out.

Coming to think of it, why do we say Gul's shows are hero centric? All her heroes need the heroines to spell everything clearly..Not one has solved a mystery of his own...

Khushi was the real hero..as was Zoya and Sanam . Harshad was lucky because he got to the final track redeeming the hero before they could butcher him at the expense of developing other plots. I feel the hero always suffers the most in Gul's shows.😆

And I really swear...Asad and Aahil have used more glycerine than their FLs.

Yes talent shows are the worst Anu. Kids who cant spell depression, are diagnosed with depression and stress.

Parent pressure yes, of all the downsides of this issue, this is the worst.

I had even read about a lil girl, who was passed off a boy (I think in one of RGV bhoot movies), by the mother, so that the kid could receive many offers. What was the logic, beats me?

Finally the father of the kid intervened. How ghastly?

Shouldn't child artistes be considered child labour?

@bold 1 - I'm imagining Ahil saying that like a school boy and everyone from Khala Khalu to Misbah, standing in front of him. 🤣)

@bold2 - Yeah Soup, KV played smart here and announced it very decently. ANd he didn't point any fingers at PH or channel. All the pointing was done by TJ.

But I have a feeling the new drashti serial my replace QH and Qh may go off air or may be with a change of time. Its lost its youth appeal to be in the 9:30 bracket. Whatever, a major chunk of their audience is youth. They should never forget that.

And I think, the strings in Qh are being pulled by the channel. I don't believe this PH would've planned the witch track. It is too disgusting for words even.

Aahil is always a boy...He is the only hero I never wished any ill on...Because his childhood was so bad...the worst anyone could have...😭..Sanam was like a mother to him...Khair Chhodo...😳

QH is still there in top ten. Zee will flog it until it is dead. And probably display the corpse too..😭

Aasani se jaane nahi denge...The PH did fight for KSG and killed off RV's charcetr in four months time...Zee will not forget or forgive.🥱

😆 Poor RV too...He got caught in this unnecessary mess...and got the worst deal!

KV is really no nonsense- Hats off to him for that! 👏

Even now, he has made his stance clear...and expressed willingness to come back- Kudos to him.👏

I think Zee will get a new guy to play Aahil.😭 Better would be to kill him off.

New guy, to play Ahil. Then Soup, they won't have any scenes to show for fbs. Not even one.

At least with Asad, they have a few scenes of RV for asya fbs, but in this case, there will not be even a single fb.

I still think, they will end Saahil on a happy note and show some twist whereby Seher gets exchanged with Sanam and continue Seher Shaad story. Seher is their backup strategy if numbers fall. Dont wait for the inevitable and use the backup strategy wisely.

Yeah I saw the Fawad-Sanam Baloch promo a few days ago. I'm sure BBC will confirm 😆. A friend of mine who has seen the show said she's surprised they are actually airing Daastan here coz it's a controversial topic and risky. It was named Lakeerein initially and now it's Waqt ne kiya kya haseen sitam. Why the name change? 😕

BBC is lagging behind😆

Has the time been shown
