@ Red - I beg to differ on this point
I just want to say that when the male lead was kidnapped the ratings went down to 2.3 which improved the next week only due to the ILU promo & the sightings of him in between which sort of convinced the viewers that he is coming back.
When I told my TRP viewer mom after the ME in May that the actor is leaving for movie shoot, her immediate reply was then he is not coming back. This would have been the view of most TRP viewers who did not have access to the Online news & showing the male lead gave them the belief that he is there.
Also the writing & the villian carried it forward but not just the female lead, I was pissed off with the female lead esp. after she comes back from the almost Con seq.
I can speak for myself since I was so bugged with the female lead Investigating track that every day I used to catch the episodes hoping for the Male lead sighting & I was not a purely the Male actor fan then, I was a fan of the couple but that period made me realize what the absence of Male lead means in the previous show.
I used to support the posts urging members to watch the show for Sanaya's sake but was never eagerly waiting to the episode & never watched the 11 pm repeats which I had never missed from Feb & continued after the Male lead returned.
I am sorry to bring the previous show & the characters here but its in reply to the comment which I have quoted which mentions it
@ TM ' I agree with you that CC is a poorly executed show & its being carried by Supriya alone. They have to up the execution part immensely to be some sort of competition for DABH
