Great effort!
Hope the PH and Co pay attention.
What I'm about to say is constructive criticism. Hope others don't take it otherwise.
I personally have an issue with the presentation of the show. But, that's not vital for the betterment of the show as much as the story line is.
The problem is that there is no set story in the show. Apart from the first two weeks where the there was a proper theme and story, the following weeks somehow lost track of them which resulted in the fall of trps.
My suggestion to the Cvs is to show both the city and the village..in other words divide the episodes between Mumbai and the Mallicks/RK and Ballu and his life in Motihari...this way, the show could attract both the metro viewers as well as the those from smaller cities.
Also, flesh out the characters and establish their motivations.
RK needs a family background pronto...we need to know why he is the way he is...is he so by nature or by upbringing?
Other characters like Shammu and Padmini should have more to do other than hang around the kids solely. The chawl people should be focused once in a while.
Unlike channels like Star One, which was youth oriented, Colors viewers are older and need something other than mere passion and love to have a satisfying evening.
The non-internet viewers need to know that Mukund isn't the hero.
Lastly, the channel should promote the show well.
PS: How did I forget about the film industry!!! Where is the promised behind-the scenes view of the industry? Even the superstar barely goes to the sets.
