Clueless: Pallavi Subhash
After Ravi Chopra's Viraasat, the next show that is going off air to make way for Kaun Banega Crorepati? is Balaji's Karam Apna Apna.
Says Shailija Kejriwal, senior creative director of Star, "Since KBC is going to be the main attraction in the prime time slot, two shows have to wind up and make way for KBC. Karam Apna Apna along with Viraasat will probably go off air, at least for the first thirteen weeks after KBC is launched."
But how can a channel sacrifice a popular show like Karam… at the altar of KBC? Says, Dorris Dey, creative director of the show, "I do not want to comment on KBC's impact on our other shows. We are yet to be informed regarding the fate of the serial."
How have the TRPs of Karam… been, so far? "The TRPs of the show has been high, better than some other hit serials. We are trying for an alternative slot, but we are yet to figure out all the possibilities," says Shailija.
Pallavi Subhash, aka Gouri in Karam…, seems clueless about the developments. "We have not been informed by the production house about the show going off air. As far as the success of the show is concerned, it is doing very well," she says.
