I know I know already a lot has been said on this topic and there are like a million posts out there expressing disappointment and all so I decided to speak up after all [yeah me and my big mouth😛]
On one hand we look at the millions of loyal fans all around the world who not only manage to crash IF but also literally force people to close up their facebook accounts-needless to say we have a huge mass of loyal fans globally who will either do or die "Sar kata sakte hai lekin sar jhuka sakte nahi"😆
[We can let our heads be sacrificed but won't bow down to anyone :P] and somehow I am reminded that even after almost 6 decades of India's independance we still have such fighters left in here😉
And yet after all that- trp aunty fails to get up and dance when it concerns ipkknd ..why?😕
Honestly speaking I would love to give my own experience when it concerns hindi tv serials.I come from a small town though I live in a metro currently.During holidays I usually go back to my hometown and thus arise the various auntyjis of the neighbourhood who visit my house :P So one day I was religiously watching SBS in the drawing room waiting for some news on ipkknd while one of my dear auntys was sitting right there.There appears a news on dhokla contestent[guess who?😆] and my aunty starts gushing upon how she loves loves loves the show.I am not taking any names but you should *ahem*cough*ahem* judge by yourself which one she was talkng about.She was more interested in how her own bahus should behave like that and I had to force myself to shut up from shouting "W*F WHO behaves like that nowadays??!!" 😳
Now imagine her sitting there and watching Arnav say "I love you" to Khushi or dabba service or stuff like that.The point is that a lot of aunties and mummys in India are STILL stuck onto saas-bahu drama and they amount to a whole lot of trp audience.
Apart from that,ipkknd is watched by mostly the younger generations[not all but still a majority].My own best friend loves to watch it and gushes on how ipkknd should never end.But she is forced to watch the repeats or on youtube since most of the time she is busy in studies and all.Somedays I literally force her "Omg you have to have to watch it today yaar!!"😆So a lot of trp goes down because even if they would love to watch the show,they can't many at times watch it at prime time.
Lastly after all that bakwaas I am still surprised to see that SP is airing the "I love you" promo still😕 I mean what is the point if you are promoting something which has already happened? I would prefer it if they play the precap[kidnapped] in the form of a promo.I bet a lot of people would be interested-because believe it or not ,India loves emotional drama and kidnappings :P
Finally I am still seeing a ray of hope ever since my own mom has started showing interest again...not because she might be generating more trps but it shows that the trp audience is getting interested.If we do want to get the trp aunty to dance on our calling then go promote your show -ask people if you watch it or not,tell them the guy is hot 🤣 Auntyjis ko bolo ki Khushi is such an ideal bahu and daughter- she can save your son-in-laws ,run a dabba service and yet get away with doing a full on swami act😆
Remeber the khushi monologue-Haan hum kar sakte hai,bilkul kar sakte hai😉
"Abhi bhi hai jawani, zara si hai purani
Hai phir bhi jawani honey ji
Sharma bhula ke, haan thumka laga ke
Karo na thoda manmaani ji
Abhi bhi tere gaal gore-gore
Lakhon dilon pe dale dore-dore
Dekho deewane hue jaa rahe hain
Aadhi umar ke bhi chhore-chhore
Ha baalon ki safedi se pheeka kab hua hai romance?[arhi vala :P]
Aunty ji, aunty ji, get up and dance
Aunty ji, aunty ji, get up and dance"🤣
