Well, how does one know whether the character is imp in a show or not .....the barometer is the character's popularity amongst the audiences...and it is no secret that he was and still is extremely popular..... all over...
evidence:
- first poll where he got 76-78% votes
-second poll where he got 60% votes
-AAp jaisa koi finals..where he was voted amongst the three most popular stars on sony
add to this invitations to shows where legends are performing...and extensive media coverage...
this leaves no doubt abt his popularity/importance to the show
what! he is sooooooo popular? point to be noted all polls conducted by sony. the channels usually promote character whom they think will be imp for their shows. but the question is why did SET not intervene when the unfair producers were kicking out bechara(and popular) sameer? btw even ayushman was there in the top 3 of AJK contest, right? latest news is even he has been kicked out of the show. kshitij! beware!
