The question first came in my mind what does trp audience watch a show for ? Audience watch any show for the LEAD COUPLE mainly . No place of arguements here . Audience enjoyes the lead couple interacting with each other, be it fighting , hating , loving or as some ppl named it , doing "PDA" . Doesn matter what some handful of ppl think , the truth will be this only . Audience enjoyes the tracks where the leads r falling in love with each other or against any odd standing together as a strong bond & in leisure time do "PDA" . This is the main reason behind the high trp of any show which is showing the lead couple standing with each other in every situation , bounded by a strong vow of love . & thats what explains the 4+ trp MEIEJ used to fetch once . If we see the whole journey of MEIEJ till now we can see some specific periods in term of trps .
1st . The Madhu-Mukku period .
At first Madhu-Mukku story too failed to fetch trp - reason is simple that time track wasn't revolving around the lead couple Rishbala .
To save the sinking ship CVs got Rishbala married by those epic 4 pheras & then the storyline started to revolve totally around Rishbala & see the magic it did !
2. Rishbala post 4 phera wedding period
Not only according to me , but according to trp charts too this was the golden era of MEIEJ . The story focused on the lead couple only & no doubt audience loved those Rishbalalicious episodes š³Be it RK & Madhu bajaoing ek duje ka band š or starting to feel for each other post Ganpati visarjan š³ or be it their whole episode long "PDA" post KC night āŗļø . Audience NEVER got bored of Rishbala . Till the story highlights the lead couple audience remain glued to the show . Even that absurd villege track got good trp though there was nothing but Rishbala's "PDA" only . Even after unwedding drama everyone just peeped in to see what's in store for their lead couple now . & if I'm not wrong the drunk confession night at studio too fetched 4+ trp . That's where the audience's interest lies . Again & once again a track revolving around their lead couple only .
3. Post Sultan entry period .
Everything was going fine , viewers were still watching the show in a hope their Rishbala will soon reunite , but just then CVs introduced a character announcing him to be a "third angle" & half of the viewers lost interest , as it was a clear indication no Rishbala story, as they wanted, waiting for them. Sullu Miyaan jumped IN the show from his epic pond & audience's interest flew OUT through open window . & with it the poorly written & portrayed character , which is nothing but full of clunks š„± The criminal but "golden hearted" concept itself was a self contradicting absurd disaster. & to accomodate him , the leads got butchered like hell . The idealistic , justice favoring Madhu suddenly started to save a gangster from law & his well deserved punishments just bcoz he has a stammering child š³ & so that Sullu can deliver all women ki izzat & all bla bla dialogue , the witty , smart , intelligent RK was suddenly demoted to a mere psycho š„± Audience does not like to see any side kick in more light than the lead couple . Period ! & thats what happened with MEIEJ . When the so called "third angle" was desperately being presented as a "golden hearted" man & the leads as dumb & psycho audience couldn take it anymore . They just gave up . Then again to save the sinking ship CVs clutched Rishbala & tried to get back the audience with their true confession & wedding . They promoted ONLY RISHBALA WEDDING through every possible means , promo , precap , fb status , tweets...everywhere only RISHBALA , Coz thats what can attract the viewers . Well viewers came back , wedding track got 3+ trp , but again CVs bewakufi spoilt the cake . Its true everywhere Rishbala wedding promos got a good number of viewers back , but cvs squeezed in Sullu's sob stories in between Rishbala moments & again irritated the hell outta audience . Result ? As soon as marriage track over they again lost a good number of viewers , trp dropped from 3+ to again 2point something š . Koi mane ya na mane everytime in every show its observed audience watch the show for the LEAD COUPLE only , they aren't interested in any side kick's sob story š„± & when the side kick's character is enhanced more & more ignoring the leads it annoyes the audience . Even now too though by tweets , fb statuses cvs r trying to convince this track is about Rishbala's love , will their love win over or not...when we open tv we get to see a dump & cry bucket Madhu , a brainless devdas RK & a triumphing Sultan &...we switch off the tv . Audience never like any character to be given more importance than the leads & thats the answer why the current track disgusting them . If now the track changes & the leads get their deserved importance back , if the leads triumph over the "third angle" audience will come back to the show for sure . I seriously don get why this track is being streached like elastic to show Sullu is smarter than Rishbala even though its getting proved to be a disastar š„± ? Just end this torture & then wait for audience's response .
P.S - Just a random question popped in my immature mind š. When a legally married couple romance each other in their own bedroom or any other empty places where no one except than them is present , can it be called "PDA" ?? Isn't the full form of PDA is "Public" display affection š¤ ?? I'm too immature u see , so just confused š
P.P.S - while commenting please don't bash anyone . All thanx to that special person that name itself has become an insulting word now a days š„±
