When IF first started of course with the Jassi Jaisi Koi Nahin Section... there were so many Apoorva Agnihotri fans scattered everywhere, but lately I have seen his fans vanish completely! I only see limited Apu fans present. About 50 I would say that too in Kaajal section...

Check this link out - https://www.indiaforums.com/forum/kaisa-yeh-pyaar-hai/609718/iqbal-technically-the-2nd-most-popular

My question to you is why is Apoorva missing from this poll?

I am aware that I sound like a little kid right now, but I am really upset with this.. Since the past year or so I have seen a 'decline' in Apu's fans. We crazy obsessed Apu fans, who gave a tough time to Purab fans are missing - we have not made any one aware of our presense as of now, and I think we should do that!

I say we first get Apu back on IF for another interview, it's been so long, since his first interview! If Rajeev fans can get two interviews of Rajeev, so should we....

Apu fans wakeee up - this is your last chance to show you exist!

Ditto! Apart from the mods, I doubt anyone was aware of it . All are too busy with JJKN 😳 and Kaajjal 😳 , I guess 😕.

andekhi, popularity is seasonal and it happens over time -its not something that can be enforced.. 😊

when IF started it started solely with JJKN so it was bound to be flooded with apoorva agnihotri fans. When kasam se started there was ram all over and now i dont see as much of his craze, when II started there was abhijeet sawant everywhere now i dont know where abhi is or his fans are..

unless someone maintains the same level of showmanship (like AB or SRK) throughout his career i.e. is always in the public's favourible eye; its difficult to sustain the same popularity figures..

another thing is that, kajjal is nowhere as popular as JJKN was when it started. SONY is now nowhere as popular with people as star plus is currently... and we have to accept facts na! 😳

so dont feel sad about the poll - who knows maybe apu was included but didnt figure in the top ten or something. even i didnt know about the poll myself.. 😕

the best way apu's popularity could again shoot up is if he does something novel like his roles in pardes/JJKN

To start of with, frankly speaking Samir Soni fans were always atleast one more than AA fans when IF was around one year old( I'd come to know about IF since 30th Nov 2004, though I joined in 7 months later), be it in polls or posts 😭 . I feel bad but that was the fact, I'm sure even Vijay bhai accepts it.
On the flipside , I feel now there are more AA fans on IF than before just because of his role in Kaajjal which is complete opposite of what it was in JJKN. Kaajjal is quite famous on IF. This I can say from fact that in Chaska-meter results Kaajjal has never got below 8 (correct me if I'm wrong) and its quite active as well... thats quite an achievement atleast on IF as we are talking about fans on IF. But then again Chaska meter is not the true indicator of popularity in India as there is a huge difference in the TAM, audiencemap.com ratings( Always KSBKBT is no. 1 ) and the IF ratings.
As a result, I feel its more of an unawareness factor than popularity thingy atleast on IF, if not in India.


Just my thoughts 😊 .

Apu fans still exist, but life also goes on. The people that crowded these forums 3 years ago when Armaan Suri was helplessly falling in love with Jassi have lives, and with time, they have to move on. That doesn't mean they aren't fans of Apu, it just means they've moved on to other things in life.

As far as the Kaajjal forum is concerned, not one person there isn't an Apu fan. We're all head over heels, gone bonkers over Apurva as Dev Pratap Singh. The problem here seems to be that no one knew about the poll. Had we known, I think the results would have been quite different.

The main point is though, that Apu fans haven't dissappeared or decreased in number...we're still here...we always will be - whether life and time allows us to express our opinions of him on IF or not.

I know I'm going off at a tangent, but I just noticed the Apu in your siggy Sharmi and couldn't help comparing it with how he looked in the 2nd episode of JJKN which was posted by Master Blaster yesterday. People are supposed to look worse as they age - but AA looks so much better now than he did in Pardes or the initial episodes of JJKN 😳

Actually, she is right but still on IF I think AA has a huge fan following to come on the pie diagram chart. My mind (and not my heart) does not seem to be convinced and I don't see the reason why AA should not make it there, as there are many new members esp. on Kaajjal forum including the already existing ones.. so u see……….
