Those who blame HA for dropped ratings are clueless. The TRPs are reasonably stable. Dropped overall due to ipl and just pathetic story telling but they retain their overall ranking of 2 or 3 which is where they have lived always except for maybe like some miracle weeks where they could be number 1 but lost it to Anupama immediately after that week itself. They have been in a race with yrkkh and they have been stable.
These guys clearly have no vision. They had a plan but they ditched it. But they have screwed up too much for audience to care anymore. Its just really unfair to Ayesha and HA. Especially Ayesha. After living 850 + episodes and only dealing with pain , she gets no justice or happiness, and her end is gonna be so tragic and honestly pretty stupid- she's gonna die as she confesses to her abusive ex that she still loves him thereby kinda diluting everything Sai symbolizes- the strength of a single woman who took NO crap from anyone all her life. Its not fair. I cannot hate Sai because for the longest time she was consistent and made sense. I cant wrap my head around these recent episodes literally last 3-4 epis where she's stopped speaking up for herself altogether and is defending V even though that dude is still as despicable if not more. Its not even like V is a reformed soul suddenly who sincerely apologized in order to make Sai reconsider her residual feelings . He's still being a jerk!
As evident from trends online even the most staunch viewers are only sad that Sai will be gone, but not that this gen and effectively the show is ending because there's no hope of them giving any good content at all. Must take special talent to ruin a good thing so many times over!
I just feel sad that after investing so much Ayesha does not get to end Sai on a logical and good note. Even seeing her living alone with her kids after Vs death and Satya realizing that they can't be together would be good. Then they can open leap at 20 years and mention that somewhere along the way Sai died of some illness and the custody of kids went to CN folks since they are biological family. Its better than degrading Sai and showing her going back to V.
Are they really trying to convince people that V is Sai's soulmate?! The man who treated her like crap, who didn't even search for her body, asdumed her dead, married a criminal going against his presumed dead wife's last wish, who remarried P and honeymooned with her even after Sai came back in his life, who hid Vinus truth from her- is he supposed to be a guy in love?! Seriously?!
NB clearly didn't care about his characterization. Infact he only had a hand in making V despicable due to off screen crap . He didn't care about the popularity of his character or the fictional jodi and audience. His behavior made it apparent that he had no Fs to give about the show. It was just a way for him and his wife to do some below mediocre work to get a fat paycheque and enjoy their post marital "honeymoon" phase on set doing cringe PDA and posting it on SM shamelessly.
HA toh anyway came in really too late and these guys from get go weren't using him well. Instead of showing SaiYa they were focused on P, V, etc etc. I don't think he'll be as impacted since they never really gave him a meaty role. He must have realized his cameo will end soon. He must be charging a bomb given his seniority.
But Its not fair to Ayesha. She's the one who was a newcomer who worked crazy hours and worked on herself, her craft, her dancing, her diction, tolerated all the offscreen crap and made Sai a beloved character. Its not ok to ruin her hardwork of 850 episodes to give this trashy ending.
