Yes, i have heard about this too. I guess in PR forum, because she wrote bad for the actors playing Manav/Archana. In any case, this article has appeared in a newspaper and shouldn't be taken lightly. If possible we should start out work from right now. But one thing is for sure, if the TRP's don't increase, whatever we do wouldn't even make an ounce of difference to the channel! They decided to bring back CB again only because they shut CB1 when it was giving them good ratings...and they assumed CB2 to give them good ratings automatically because it was a HIT show. Everything was bad for CB2...from the launch time (world cup time, when people are glued to their tv sets, followed by IPL season!!) then the FAKE WIFE+Fire Seq...then no proper emotional connect... to name a few.

Majority of the top shows don't have any proper storyline or so...but the makers do give in max. time to let the audience connect with the character. The characters should become the voice of the audience and clarify all the questions arising in the viewers mind after seeing the actions/reactions of the character to a certain situation. However in CB2, everything was left to audience assumption which audience hate! People like analysing in their own way on to how a particular character will act/react...but all this can happen only if the characters remain constant. Ofcourse there can be growth, but they should remain rooted to their character sketch from the beginning! CB2 lacked this again! Even now the DJ's and Channel aren't realizing it! CB2 just needs time, space and some original creativity from the DJ's and not the channel!

Shoba Somnath ki is a relatively new show. Bhagonwali doesn't have any competition in 6.30 time slot so its doing okay in that slot.

CB faces tough competition from the rival channels and unfortunately hasn't been able to deliver. Colors' rival show shot up the TRP charts recently much to ZEE's agony and on top of that, ZEE has been pushed to 4th slot! This would be a majot setback for them and obviously they are in panic mode, trying to salvage the situation

Fellow Choti Bahu fans,

sorry that the ratings is not good in the show, but really as much as we all love Avinash and Rubina, come on the creators of this series, need to be fired.

Surely they can come up with a good story line, are we suppose to see the same thing happening again and again, had they wanted to continue in this line, good lord they should have stock to the first one, and gave Dev yet another wife, as he had three.

Are we suppose to sit and watch the samething happening once again, Dev is married to Radikha, so why do we have another new triangle with Barkha.

Is this the dharam that is practice in religious families or leaders in society, this is even worse the raj purohit did the same thing to his son, Dev father, he married his son a second time for society sake forcing him to leave his wife, yet he could not stop the love, and the son died.

Now he is repeating the samething to his grandson. and once again in the name and sacrifice of samaj and dharam. Are u telling us that sin is permitted and accepted in the name of samaj and dharama,because rp says so.

I love my avinash and rubina, and wish them every success, but the story line sucks. Pavitra Rishta sucks, but it lasting longer because the story is realistic.

It is awfully hard to continue watching this nonsense for those of us how begged for choti bahu to return is absolutely hurt over this.

We keep seeing Avi saying to us this choti bahu is different my question HOW SO? BUDDY U WERE MARRIED TO RADS, THEN VISHAKA CAME HOME, HERE UR MARRIED TO RADS, AND UR FAMILY NOT ACCEPTING HER THEY WANT BARKHA, WHICH IS WORSE, IN MY VIEW IT IS CHOTI BAHU 2.

WE ALL SHOULD BE TRYING TO GET THE STORY LINE CHANGE AND NOT HAC K THE SHOW.

Lets not panic.I guess the channel is in a panic mode right now. There are loads of other shows which are not worth mentioning. If Zee shuts down CB it's going to lose it's viewers all over again. i ,for one will not watch any of it's shows. If they think by shutting down CB they'l climb up then they are wrong.Zee will downslide ven more & the new shows will also not get them the desired TRPs.

Zee tv can't do this to Choti Bahu don't want a fast ending again we are in the middle of a storyline agian so much to tell yet! And isn't Bhagwali something with the lowest trp and sometimes they aren't on the list even. So what this writer talking about!! Don't believe this article!! Choti Bahu maha episode always garner high trp above 2 and what about overseas audience don't they don't count. What a stupid article? The writer should do her homework right and stop spreading rumors when nothing is confirm not fair to the fans who love the show!! Don't think Zee tv wants to make Choti Bahu fans angry right now in the position they are. They should give CB time!

Great going Zee. Blame your own incompetency on the show and viewers. How can a show get good ratings when you keep on changing the story and never following up any track properly. So according to your definition, you introduced a popular character Barkha that didn't work or changing the story didn't work. Well nothing would work if one is not interested in their product and treats it just as a means to get some short-term gains.

No track was ever properly followed and the story started changing from the 1st week of leap onwards. Radhika going to college for two days when initially there was emphasis on her education. Then one triangle after the another combined with no emphasis on emotions of lead characters. Of course the ratings would have been low.
