yes. She fell down the stairs. It's not about audience didn't like that. But there was no drama which could justify her act. Nothing changed between Imlie and Agastya there. So her self harm track felt hollow. So they chose the worst episode in the history of Imlie as a 24 min episode lol. Also audience couldn't understand how a man like Agastya could so easily be swayed by his daadi. Anyway they were in a rush to bring in a new storyline that they could not bring the drama properly. They didn't even clear to the audience that the marriage is fake. It enraged the audience. It enraged all of us here as well.

Hopefully this new track will help Imlie once again cross 2. Next week trps will have episodes where Agastya imlie married and their accident, revenge family exit

I agree with both of you on the pace of the show. There are so many things happening I every week.

The TRP audience don’t watch and analyse like we do. If they can’t keep a track of events or feel that something is already resolved they maybe switching channels

BKAS Has only 0.1 fall

Only 8 to 9 pm shows showed 2 points fall

BKAS already was low. It is the lowest across all prime time shows of SP. Even early evening slots are higher than BKAS. No going to lie but I feel BKAS is like a dead weight pulling us down.

Reasons for low ratings :

1. Show time was of 21 minutes

2. All SP shows dropped. 8-9:30 pm was affected the most.

3. Too much fast pacing of the track last week.

4. Too much happened for the audience in one week. From Imlie - Agastya planned marriage, failure to Agastya - Binni fake marriage. It was too much for the audience to fathom.

5. Disjointed episodes. There was no thehrav. No crying and contemplation for the leads. Audience were left kn confusion whether Agastya - Imlie had a break up or not. They writers wanted to rush to the next track.

6. Horrible Friday episode.

7. Agastya was shown weak. Weak Agastya doesn't work I guess. That's why they are making the ML stronger this time?

What do you all think?

Yes Last week we had too much emphasis on Vishwa. Vishwa was the one who had maximum ss in the marriage episode, Agastya was shown as weak. The only time the trps went up to 2.3 was when they showed Agastya understanding that Vishwa was tracking Imlie. I feel the Wed (Agastya - Imlie broken down marriage) to Friday (August - Binni fake marriage) kind of dropped the trps. Saturday was okay because again we had Agastya and Imlie together and Navya being revealed as the killer.

Also I think the Zee TV show had a pre-leap thing happening and it went up 2 points and Imlie dropped 2 points. I really hope we go back to 2.2 now that the revenge family got all packed off.

Also Gul needs to consistently cut the episodes to be of 24 mins length. When we had 24 mins episode length at least the trps were stable at 2.1 and did not drop down to below 2. I think having all episodes at 21 mins also kind of lowered the time viewing for the week.

Just a question, episode duration is decided by the PH or channel? Why is this not being noted if it impacts the TRP?

Episode duration is mostly the PH ka call. They can increase or lower their air time depending on the trps

I think it's decided by ph because less episode minutes means more advertisements in breaks which means more money

Few reflections here. The show desperately needs thehraav. Build up of drama and then blast of drama. They need to increase the audience base.

Now that the show is approaching towards the track which the audience actually wants to see ( probably for Imlie ), the career of a FL supported by the ML, there should be proper build up of each and every drama. Agastya's 'death' lead to opening of many loops which will lead to a lot more dramas now provided they execute with proper pace.

WHile other shows have a lot of family drama and vamps, Imlie may not be an ideal show for family drama, but it can be replaced by the mystery genre which has worked for the show always.
