1. Killing of Prem in Oct 2008

It was one of the dumbest move ever in tv history. The show was getting Tvr of 4 and was in 2nd position. It was totally crushing its time slot competion Mayka. However it was not enough for ekta. In 2008 all of her long running show was ending one by one. She was desperate for something. She thought she could just replace an iconic character with mr. rampal aka 2nd coming of mr. bajaj.

She and star plus even advertise male lead's death in major newspapers. They were greedy for short time benefit.

As a result of this kis desh lost a significant portion of viewers and many of them never returned. In tv industry once your trp dips it is difficult to recover. I still think if they reintroduced prem even in November then the show could get significant portion of lost trp back.

I am sure Ekta regretted killing of prem after seeing disastrous result.

Completely agree with you...I mean...who does that? Who kills of their leading man? What was Ekta thinking?!?

2. Showing prem is really dead and Gaurav shake hands with Rishabh:

In March 2009 it was showed Prem is really dead and it was his humshakal Gaurav. While viewers were happy to see Harshad chopra back they also emotionally invested in the character of Prem. Many of them never come back after this.

It seemed like new creative head of kis desh wanted to leave her own mark by creating new character. That week saw big drop in trp and they forced to reverse the track within 3 weeks.

And she kept us in limbo wondering...is this Prem with memory loss or a look-alike? The way that they show Prem getting his memory back is also strange. I mean it was as if the CVs couldn't decide which way they wanted to go either. They show him hitting his head and then feeling all dizzy seeing his family's photos and then him as Gaurav shaking hands with Rishap. I mean...really?! 🤪

3. Prem distrustring Heer and ashlesha incident:

That whole track caused significant damage to the whole show. Prem and Heer's mutual trust and respect was main usp of the show. But that track destroy that feeling and if it was not enough they showed Ashlesha incident.

It seemed like after whole prem-gaurav-prem track cvs were running out of idea and that caused another drop in trp and the show shifted to 2.30 pm.

Right. I mean you'd think that after all they went through to be together, Prem would know better than to mistrust Heer. It is like you said...they seemed to be running out of ideas...even though if you think about it, they had a huge cast of well developed characters...they could have shown something featuring the other couples. For example, Ash coming back resulting in tension between Meet. They showed a little...but they could have expanded much more on that. But no, they suddenly show Ash going after Prem.

4.Gayetri turning negative

It was one of the distasteful thing to see in the show. It also seemed illogical. How can a person change that much for wrost.

She became a typical tv sautela sass who just hate her bahu's guts.

Yes, MIL & DIL drama is popular in tv but it was not suitable for kis desh as it was a love story.

I think the cv was looking for a strong negative character that time and they choose to just turn a postive character to negative one without trying to invent a new vamp character.

The whole thing was a disaster.

Okay this one I'm going to say...yes the change was extreme, but I can understand Gaytri going off kilter after the loss of a child, especially when the child was her youngest and dearest. The burden for all the problems in Veera's marriage was placed on Nihal's shoulders and Heer always sided with her brother so naturally Gaytri was going make her a target of her hatred. Still the change was very extreme. But I guess it is silly to expect logic in a daily soap.

5. Preet's death:

It was totally unacceptable. Prem-Preet brotherly bond was one of the unique thing of the show. Preet was one of the strongest supporting character, I ever see. Despite being a supporting character he was able to create his own fan following.

I understand Sushant was busy as male lead in pavitra rishta. But they could see preet in coma or preet going to canada for busniess. Killing him and trying to replace

his character with viren was a bad thing.

In balaji shows one actor can do two shows at the same time.

In 2007 Ronit & Hiten were acting in both kzk and kynki. In one show they were father -son and in other they were rivals for perena's love.

Preet's death was a sad moment for meet and kis desh's fan.

Preet's death was completely senseless. I mean, you mean to tell me that Prem stood on a time bomb rather than see his family become penniless. Come on, you have the Juneja name and reputation, and 3 well-educated, business minded young men in the house and you could not rebuild. Or you could not sue the step-family and say you signed the documents to the property under duress. When was Herman's law degree going to come in handy?

As a Meet fan, this was the worst possible thing Ekta did to the show. I have only watched one other show of hers and I am convinced she likes to butcher her supporting characters. Yes Sushant went on to do PR, but like you said, they could have just had him away on business. I mean, he didn't even live to see his 2nd child. 😭

I also found it ridiculous that Nihal went to jail for Veera's death. I mean he wasn't responsible...they should have sent him for psychological counseling not to prison for 6 years for a crime he didn't commit.

Also Kis Desh took a 6 year leap and the Juneja family returns from Canada. Prem and Heer reuniting track begins, but in all those 6 years that Heer remained in India, did she not once visit in jail the brother that she stood by so strongly for? And what about Meher? She was so happy to see her sister, did she forget that her brother even existed?

After Preet's death I lost interest in the drama. I thought it was extremely stupid to try to replace him with Viren, who turned out to be the mastermind behind Preet's death.

It would have been better for the show to take a further leap and show the next generation of kids grow up. Or just end it on a happy note. Was that too much to ask for? 😳
