Don't know about TRP because it had always been more or less the same. But the show have more international audience and they wont provide TRP. It is already been dubbed for the Indo audience and also for telecast in Arab channels. Hope they live up to the hype.
Apparently they will need minimum 400 episodes for the show to begin airing in Indo and that could also be another for the leap. They needed to extend the story so that they could reach the 400 episode mark. There was an article on how they air 3 episodes per day on Indo channel and hence they need shows with higher episode banks.
I doubt TRPs will increase even going forward due to Sony's reach. Last night I was at a dinner party and out of the four people who watch the show, two said they stopped watching it last week as they couldn't handle such negativity anymore. "its too much and they are showing rubbish" were one person's words. The other one was on the verge of stopping and this is international audience I am talking.
Their OTT drama has put off too many viewers and these are audience they wooed with their subtlety. In the end, they got neither the TRP and lost the original viewers...and they had to go for a leap to hit the refresh button.
