Saw the anemic TRP's over the past month. If you do a stats analysis on them, they have neither gone up or down. 1.48 or 1.54 or 1.71 really means squat while others are rocketing up by 0.5 to a full point.
The CV's while having partially redeemed themselves from the disastrous 2nd week of Jan have to realize that for the show to be respected, you need to respect the viewers and have a general notion that viewers of such a drama ..soon to be in the 11 pm slot...are not Popsicle sucking kids. A 11 pm slot assumes mature adult viewership.
But when you consistently show a lead pair that is averse to touching less than the Mimosa pudica plant in a love story, you will have huge issues with viewers. A touch in love is not vulgar...it speaks more than a thousand words if used int correct sequence. When Nidhi was blurting out those dumb dialogues in the handkerchief scene, when they met in the tea stall after all those days following the house sale... a reassuring hand by Dr A , holding her hand in his and just staring at her and holding her would have elevated that scene to imply...I am there for you.
Given all the 12 saal ka crap that is spewed out daily, there are unsaid common sense rules between a couple...a pair of doctors none the less that you don't discuss every sundry item in front of everyone except the person who matters most. It is insulting to sit and watch Mallu and Armaan baby sitting Ashutosh and Rohan... Nidhi.
The one thing I just don't for the life of me get is ...why can't the two sit and discuss the two most jarring road blocks in front of them like a mature pair...Mallu and the age gap and say this is how we will tackle them...I would love a show where the lead pair shows a combined IQ of more than 1.
And please can Dr A make up his mind if he wants to call Ms Mimosa Pudica...tum or aap? yesterday it was tum...day before it was aap...there is a huge gap that disappears when you say Tum...
And CV's...pl don't have Nidhi blurt out nonsense like ...If I knew love was tough...I wouldn't do it...Everyone who has gone through this will tell you ...you know fully well this is going to be tough and road of fire at times...but you still go headlong into it when you meet THE person...so please don't insult our intelligence with such nonsense.
Please bring these changes and you will see KTLK come out of the bomb shelter where it has been and breathe the rarified fresh air of high TRP's.
