HD is mentioned :)

With the re-emergence of TRPs, there is a sudden movement seen within the channels to spice up things and improve ratings of certain shows that have not lived up to expectations'

And we hear that a desperate attempt to better numbers is presently seen in Star Plus. What has caused this move within Star? Well, as we know, their recently launched shows Kaali ' Ek Punar Avatar (Shakuntalam Telefilms) and Mujhse Kuchh Kehti' Yeh Khamoshiyaan (produced by Thought Train Entertainment and Trilogy Krikos) have not been registering good TRPs, and hence this urgency to up the numbers. Also, their show Ek Hazaaron Mein Meri Behna Hai (Cinevistaas) has apparently lost the plot and is not delivering the numbers that the channel had hoped for. Their other new show, Ek Veer Ki Ardaas ' Veera (produced by Beyond Dreams), compared to the other new launches has showed some promise and this indeed is a blessing in disguise.

In accordance with this news, our reliable source said that, "Ek Hazaaron' and Khamoshiyaan have been placed under the scanner and the channel will be monitoring its ratings periodically. If an upswing in ratings is not observed, the channel will apparently be forced to take a call on the shows' future."

Tellychakkar.com sent a text message to Producer Siddharth Malhotra (Ek Hazaaron) but he rubbished the claims saying, "All this is absolutely untrue."

Producer of Khamoshiyaan, Rohit Vaid on his part said, "Well, you people have been speculating about Hitler Didi's closure for so long now. Today, Hitler is rated at 3.1 and is among the channel's best shows. So there is no truth to what you are saying. Khamoshiyaan is a new show, and these are early days. We are not overly worried about the ratings, but have taken them into consideration for sure. We will be taking forward the track a bit faster when compared to the initial plan. Viewers will also be seeing a difference in the characterization of Gauri; you will see her gaining in strength. So wait and watch and don't jump to any conclusion. Khamoshiyaan is a great show and we are sure to rock."

Well, we do hope Khamoshiyaan and Ek Hazaaron gain in numbers and put a full stop to the doubts lingering over their future.
