Week 34 :Saturday 17th August to Friday 23rd August
Sat 17 Aug-everyone discovers the identity of daitya vanar,shikhar is revealed to be the villain and betraying DD all along to the audience,drikshit betal challenge ,the sisters lose the 2nd challenge as shikhu steals the kamandal from them and divya loses her powers
Sun 18 Aug -rakshit confession and stops dri from leaving(ok this episode was really good),rakhi celebrations and audience get to know pi has planted a bomb in shergill office (a negative twist waiting for the next weekend)
My analysis:
1.Shikhar turning out to be the villain and was betraying the sisters all along and even his love for divya was fake...this revelation had a profound impact. The twist was unexpected but NEGATIVE.
2.The drikshit scene in the rangmunch theater with betaal..everyone which had seen the pic on insta (the leaked pic of the sunset scene)..was expecting a confession sequence and there was nothing.
The Saturday episode itself was very meh .
3.Yes the Sunday episode was quite good.The highlight being rakshit's confession and drikshit romance. (The ratings must have been good for this episode. )
Rest of the episode was okayish with the celebrations but again one more negative twist with pi planting the bomb.
Unlike other shows,the online audience knows that in this show,whenever a danger or problem occurs..the villain always wins.
the first ratna pi won..fine.the next one also?not done.
The cvs have to realise people hate seeing the villain win.they hate it.
4.And people who were very disappointed with Saturday episode might not have watched sundays episode..a 10 min drikshit scene and romance can only do so much.
If that scene played out in Saturday's episode itself..maybe this much fall wouldn't have happened.
5.Sunday's online ratings must have been good thanks to the drikshit scene but the total online trp is the average of the 2 episodes.
Yes drikshit is the main reason people watch the show but the general tone of the show is negative .with the good side losing again and again and the villains winning.The show has not cared to show one moment of peace/happiness for the sisters or drikshit.
Last weekend episodes were worse than this(week 36-episode on 24th and 25th August)..I know online trps are unpredictable but if you ask me the online trps are going to fall further down from 0.9.
