I was watching this episode on IPK Telugu today, volume was on, but the dialogues in Hindi were playing louder in my head. At a time when it was unclear which way the story was moving, at a time when the entry of Dadi's character was being questioned, at a time when the grip on many aspects of the show was loosening, this dialogue by ASR came as a breath of fresh air. And how powerful that line was, delivered with a simple straightforward attitude. It was a siti bajao moment. The Arnav-Dadi face off scenes were perhaps those saving graces amongst the chaos that had slowly started brewing.

Thanks for sharing.

i agree with you as well. SP's interference is somehow responsible for whatever happened with IPK.

You know when the rumor was hyping that IPK would go off air and barun would quit the show, people imprudently defameD Gul. I got such PM where they spread ugly rumor between KSG and Gul, which made me so disgusted.

i was never against gul. It's true that she somehow ruined the show after the remarriage. But i just can't forget the fact that she is the one who gave us the pair of barun and sanaya as Arnav and Khushi. We can't deny that Gul gave us the best show of our life. And after reading the interview my respect for her has grown even more.

i think sp, production house and the fans had something to do with whatever happened

for star plus, once the TRP's of the show was sky rocketing and beating balika vadhu...star plus was excited and kept interferring with the story line that the CV's planned...like the separation plan instead of the forced marriage or remarriage and the kidnapping plan...i remember it was khushi who was suppose to be kidnapped but barun had to shoot the film so they had to change it at the last minute. the story and ASR's character was suppose to be a lot darker too but star plus made it lighter i guess because a lot of families watch shows at 8 together so they were keeping it kid friendly...what ever the reason was sp kept interfering with the story line and cashing in on the stars of the show...towards the end they did not even promote the show

the the PH, i think they lost interest after the kidnapping because i feel they had no idea what to do with the story since so much was changed...then they had the actors quitting fiasco...so they kept daljeet in giving her more screen space...and during the kidnapping only khushi, mami and nk were utilized leaving akash and payal in the background and never used again. maybe sp wanted only an arshi oriented show so the other characters were put aside causing them to quit...the barun put his notice in and then they rushed the past track...i think when arnav found out, there was going to be a separation so they got them married to before he left. And the shyam revelation track was rushed twice...then those spoilers that came out everyday ruined everything too and constantly changing, which was annoying. Then they said the story has run its course and asked for suggestions from the viewer...no clue why they chose the sheetal and mrs. india track...there were better ones that were mentioned...Also the whole handling of barun leaving was just a mess and everything seemed to contradict each other. the PH really lost interest in the show towards the end...I feel the same happened with Geet too...look like they are fixing things with QH, i don't watch it though

THe fans were not happy with any tracks and only wanted Arshi and no one else...so because of that the CV's and PH had to constantly change the trackt to accomodate only arshi, making PayAsh in the background like cut outs...and we made the show end (i was not part of that)...i wanted to know what would they write after Arnav's death...i was willing to give it a chance (but i am super happy that it did not happen though).

toward the end the only thing that kept the show going was arshi and their chemistry...it really did not have the same charm as it did in the beginning

whatever happened happened...can't rewind time but it unfortunate that the show ended like that

i really like that article

But what are the Lions scheming now, Arshi ?! 😉

ha ha the scheming 4 lions... and then you have the real lion...

i think, the ph is on a roll, seem to be doing good. first ipk goes on rerun on the oversees life ok feed, and a dubbed version too. good for them i guess. now i see promos for "geet" returning to life ok. i am happy for the millions of geet fans, the story was dear to them. star plus has finally realised romance sells, what a fun. so though on one channel ph is apologising for their excesses, and i am glad someone protested and said what they were showing was far from right... i don't watch qh, but seems there were pretty unpalatable stuff shown there... on the other channel, they are back in demand.

how terribly smooth to suddenly put ipk back into their portfoliio and flaunt it on facebook page. aah i remember how quickly it was "demoted" at one time. not their anywhere in sight.

the more i see all this the more "yeh duniya agar mil bhi jaaye toh kya hai" plays in the mind.

and another classic from guru dutt's kaagaz ke phool, i ran and got the lyrics off the net 😳

ud ja ud ja pyaase bhanvare, ras na milega kaaron mein
kaagaz ke phul jahaan khilate hain, baith na un gulazaaro mein
naadan tamanna reti men, ummid ki kashti kheti hai
ik haath se deti hai duniyaa, sau haathon se leti hai
ye khel hai kab se jaari


arshi has a sadness in her heart about the last days of ipk, i think mine rhythms with hers. difficult to talk about. so much was unknown, yet known and terribly felt. i will always know that we had this show in the end because of the tremendous will of the actors and one director... after everyone had played their games, the actors... the leads and many of the cast remained true... thanks to them for that.

money is made and lost, "friends" are made and dropped and picked up again, backs are scratched, this is business, no hard feelings. was there ever any feeling really?

i don't really care.

what makes a line in the heart, only that remains, only that matters.

and that brings me here.
