Nah, THAT show was about a intense love story between a characters Arnav and Khushi. You know this show is nothing like that show, this show is about 9 year olds, mama, mami's, the works, the villian and the hero's herione's love story, dumb sisters, and of course, can't forget the pet goat everyone loves.

I am glad he vented all this out. Its about time they do because some fans can be so mean, when they're working so hard! Being a writer is damn hard, heck I have a hard time writing essays, just imagine writing an episode every frickin day!

IPK team: You guys have done a fantastic job with ALL the episodes. Of course there's ups and downs, but that's a part of human nature. Nothing is perfect. Keep doing what you do. :)

Dear Mr. Hegde,

I am really pleased to read your message. U have given a great view of how things work and I really appreciate all your efforts. I for one would like to thank the whole team of IPKKND for giving us very unique and wonderful show. You wont believe but this is the only show that has so many die hard fans. I for one am hooked to this show like never before. If I say that our lives revolve around this show then it would not be an exaggeration. We are really upset with the uncertainties with Barun's absence and the handling of this issue by the production team. It would help the viewers and fans to have some official announcement regarding the same. The rumors go around and the viewers get agitated. We are thankful to you for all your efforts and this is the first time that some insider has tried to give the clear picture - Would also appreciate if the same thoughts are given about the rumors of the cast leaving the show and show shutting down.

Thanking you and wishing you all a very BEST OF LUCK for the continuous success of the show and many more to come.

Dear Gautam,

We abhor the words "fan" and "fanatic." Yet we accept it. Speaking at a sometimes-writer and a fan-fic writer (yes, I love your work that much), I would be absolutely flattered if I had me some fanatics! Alas I mostly write heavy-duty (read: boring) political stuff. Consider it a privilege that all of your work is so well received. I agree that criticism is hard to bear when you put in 20 hours a day sometimes to make 22 minutes happen. I get how hectic the job is. But take the criticism as a group, not upon yourself personally. That is when it hurts. Even this piece by you will get plenty of criticism, read them all (we know the CVs read now) and take it with a grain of salt. Viewers vary as you are well aware. Some are passionate young teen fans, others are mature fans and then there are the older fans and those who enjoy the comedy. Take the good from them and the bad. When you achieve some success (IPKKND), it will never come without negativity and some very good critics.

Glad you own up to the fact that you (all 80 of you) make mistakes. From the viewers' perspective if there are 80 people in and around set, bloopers become hard to digest. At least one person would have seen for example that there are continuity problems almost everyday. No other show kept the momentum as long as IPKKND has, so the expectation stands when the story slacks.

When a child actor is open to the disturbing influence of her characterization, it is a violation of ethical responsibility - a duty in all our professions. Actors as you say, can't take all the credit. Especially a child actor, she can neither take the credit nor the blame for representing a malicious maturity that is supposedly cute. This burden falls at the CVs' door for writing such a track. If it was Star Plus, then they take the blame too.

On the other hand, Sanaya and Barun get all the praise because they are fantastic actors and a viewer cannot help but be influenced by their characters too. But we are well aware that they are 80 other people under the sun, we just don't see them, know them, or have character references to acknowledge and relate to them.

In every job an individual takes, we open ourselves to criticisms and judgment. And I get that is hurts. I am one of the posters who do a lot of so-called "bashing." For the most part, I say 99% constructive things. There are other times I praise the "CVs" too, the hope is that it does not go unnoticed.

We are flattered that you bothered to be bothered by our "fanatic" behavior. Sometimes the negativity hurts us, yes. I personally sympathize here because I have been through scarring racism, shouting, and criticism from an ex-boss. But then I remember, my uncle's non-creative job - being a surgeon. There really are bigger scars. When a patient dies in your hand, you live with it the guilt as you are human at the end of the day.

Fanatics can't stop being fanatics as long as IPKKND is good you see. We can't just go and get a life. Real life is hard and that is why people look for escapism like IPKKND. We get invested in the happiness that is "Arhi" (not "Payash" sorry). When the escapism falls short of our expectation, we get upset and sometimes it is a reflection of other hurts BECAUSE we have a life. Take Mitra for example, she died the other day from uterine cancer after pining to see a confession for the last year. She wrote requesting it from Gul. Cancer is one of the real things in life. She did have that life, but she also wanted her escapism because that is how we glean happiness from our reality sometimes. We refocus and get addicted to that happiness. I am not saying this to make you guys feel guilty. It is just to show why fanatical behavior is the reward for your hard work and brilliance. And we thank you all for it. You do more than write and create. You deliver happiness and with that comes some responsibility and criticism you never signed up for.

Life,

Mary.

It would have been #1 right now. The show that is on #1 is on #1 because they are STICKING to the damn story, unlike ours.

Shazu, did you know? Once upon a time, there was this show on SP, that appeared at 8 pm, called IPK, which was an INTENSE love story about Arnav and Khushi. nowadays, we are watching a show same time at 8 pm, called Iss story kya naam doon, similar a bit - but Nah, THAT show was about a intense love story between a characters Arnav and Khushi. You know this show is nothing like that show, this show is about 9 year olds, mama, mami's, the works, the villian and the hero's herione's love story, dumb sisters, and of course, can't forget the pet goat everyone loves. and OH teri, the show does not have any intense love story between Arnav and Khushi. INFACT these character seize to exist. and the viewers are like really? really? Ok.. Bye bye .. * goes to YT and watches the show IPK that once was - R.I.P
