I do not venture out of the DT very often but this had to be said. Lol at anyone who thinks that female actors have any sort of power over established older male actors in ITV or elsewhere. In fact, if anything male actors have more opportunities in ITV because of the massive female viewership. Many great actresses become one-hit wonders while mediocre MLs keep on getting roles.
Also, lol at whoever thinks that Gul would risk her profits to appease a regional TV actor like MD. ITV, even more than ott and Bollywood, works for money. That's why they stretch a show for years till it incurs losses. Artistic integrity on ITV is minimal. Good PH like sunshine aren't that big, and even their current show is a melodramatic romance.
The revamping of the show is pure business and it seems to be working. I don't know what happened between GM and the PH but blaming MD is so vastly and blatantly sexist.
And honestly no adult should be a nanny to their partner. It wasn't a wrong thing to say in the context of Arylie. But look whence I am speaking.
Agree that Mayuri has been on the receiving end of a lot of flak and quite unfairly targeted for playing her character, just like the others are!
The responsible thing for the PH at this point would be to put out official communication on Gash's exit, gracefully wish him the best for future, and move on. But no, I guess they thrive on this kind of extreme fan reactions as well 🤷♀️
