because no body knew what will be their future relation like...
no body knew that a day will come kesar will fall in love..
so daiba made a general comment to console paanba..
no body can speculate what the future will be..thats what happend with KG and thats why it is an unconvential and yet pure love story

That particular dialogue may just be the family's perception w.r.t Gulaal and Kesar's relationship when Vasant was alive, but what happens afterwards, the way she raises him is under the same shade. Just watch this video look between 4:30 and 6:30 or go through all the way.

If you watch this clip. Its from a E24 U Me aur TV. What it states about Gulaal serial that Kesar Gulaal se pyar karta hai aur Gulaal ye baat mannaey ko tyar hi nahin hogi kyun jis Kesar ko woh apne betay ki tarah manti hai woh uss se pyar karne lagta hai. and so on..
So when I raised this question earlier, few friends on this forum suggested.. hush!! don't label this love. Well if you can really feel her expressions when she slaps him under the shed, her reactions really tells that what relationship she had.but later on the writers started twisting and bending to convert that into a romantic relationship that you can call unconventional.

What I understand from Arti, is that we may think it to be unique but its not within the norms of the society. Highlighting such a relationship may not be accepted easily.

Here we were talking about TRP. So I can assume we wanted to understand majority people and how they think. majority of people does not use brain power to watch a drama serial, this is why, Gulaal has low TRP.
Only the people who want to think more and deep down , they love Gulaal. Obviously Gulaal will not be as famous as Shila or Munni. No offense please for the character Shila/munni. I just wanted to say, the people who do not want to think, just recreate themselves on TV, only they create TRP...😊

Well said Nur. I find it hard to understand how one cannot connect to Gulaal-Kesar's relationship especially with the way it has been woven or maybe it IS too complex for the masses to understand. If that's the case then I would never want the writers to compromise just so they can please the one dimensional audience.

Their relationship is something you have to feel to understand.

indians believe they are stupid n live in it.
gulaal show is taken by indians which is beyond human brains that's general audience not able to connect it.
after 10+ yrs our ppl are yaar our ppl took this long before when foriner says to us 😆
if you want to make it popular at present then it shoould be taken by a forigner n change title to some pig n people start thinking n appreciating n make it popular eventhough they didn't get it or relate to it.😊

**** I tries to see as a majority viewer who creates TRP but only seats at front of TV to recreate themselves for sometime. They do not think much..It is all about TRP.

Ummm Gulaal's expressions when she slapped Kesar after his confession were "motherly" expressions?? Wow this is really news to me🤔😳

And these E24 etc. ppl hardly ever follow the storylines of shows closely enough to know what they are talking about...a few days back a segment was also talking about a "love triangle" b/w Kesar-Talli-Kunal...and do we see that? Umm I don't think so.

Gulaal has NEVER thought of Kesar as her "son"...if that was the case, the zillion and one other signs of what the K and G relationship would evolve as since the very beginning of the show...none of those signs would be shown.

Gulaal NURTURED Kesar when he was younger, yes she did...but is the only label for nurturing someone equivalent to making them mother-son? A woman nurtures a man in so many ways, in so many roles...these things evolve with time.

Here...the bit in red...that apparently Gulaal didn't have anything but "motherly" feelings for Kesar but the writers "twisted" the story to make it romantic😆

In my view the 2 reasons for low TRPs to this show r:

1. The time slot. In my personal view, there is no show on TV tht can match gulaal no matter what time it is aired but as far as the broader perspective is concerned, we cannot deny the fact tht the housewives in our country esp our older generation (no offence meant honestly) still somehow clings on to the daily mirch-masala-pakwaan-shaadi-isney kaha-usne kaha-amma ji-dada ji-honour issues kind of daily stuff.. probably that is what they can relate to more for certain genuine reasons.. so a certain director is deliberately targetting and reinstigating such stuff as it is relatively easy to create, recreate, stretch and overstretch such petty dramas on a daily basis rather than creating a masterpiece like gulaal tht requires some "thinking" (which the other shows continue to evade)... So, having said tht, a certain Pavitra Rishta takes away most of the TRPs of other shows at 9 (although to me, it is a show i wud love to avoid even if it becomes the only show to be aired 24X7 on all the channels thruout the world🤢). So, a different time slot for the show, instead of re-re-re-repeating other dramas can work on the TRPs part.
Agreed.
For your point about older generation with stricter values. could be.😊
2. Another major reason for low TRPs for Gulaal is the stepmotherly treatment given to this show as far as the promotion is concerned.. if one misses out on the 9 pm and 12 pm telecasts, u may never find out tht show is still running on the channel or not.. such non-existent are the promos of the show. .whereas for all the other shows of SP, every week they have a new promo regarding their sabji-raita-tadka-dessert fiasco etc etc... Gulaal is a breath of fresh air in the world of indian soaps.. jst wish the channel promoted it tht way
Sufficient re-runs. Or they cover the whole week episodes over the weekend.
Uff.. still haven't been able to put up with "Gul ending" news... Kunaal would say:
Chain aye mere dil ko dua kijiye..

indian mindset is not braod n they can't accept change easily. everythng takes its time. i think gulaal cvs moved intelligently in promoting becos it's unconventional story to avoid any controversies they done it 👏
nobody can predict indian audience what clicks or not 😆 so uncertain
it's luck thats all.
gulaal show opened the way to uniqueness in tellyworld. it came much earlier that has to come after 10yrs i think but for everything there has to be beginning so it started with gulaal show.
coming to show beginning was not presented well. ya most of the serials starts beginnn very well n after few days they go weird n we stop watching it. i watched few epi beginning the pace of the show was dry n slow it didn't connect well. later it picked n came to medium pace may be becos of trps.
there is nothing to add this serial to make it popular.
if added to make popular amnong general audience then wats the diff between gulaal n topi serial.
gulaal is popular or not who cares it is unique n master piece in tellyworld thats matters.👍🏼😊

is there a way to make it more interesting without lowering its standards. BTW do you think that all the tracks being showed in this serial are unique and master piece?
