Before the show ends I want RishBala get justice!

I want Madhu knows who was her parents!

Normally she knows as Abhay Kapoor has explained why he was taking revenge from her but Cvs are to be blamed in that matter, in QH which witnessed a leap in almost the same way as MEIEJ, they didn't lose the connection with the past couple, there are hints that the vamp will get punished and that they will get justice, also the heroine there thinks in an endearing way of her parents, she keeps a picture of them...

I can't believe that they didn't even show Madhu trying to find about them, I wanted Rk mansion to stay the same with Rk's belongings, his trophees, his pictures, and that big painting of him behind the bed, I wanted it to become a museum, I wanted Madhu Jr to get to know about her parents not only through Dida and Bittuji but also through old newspapers, we know Rishbala's story was always there, I also wanted her to watch her dad's films and the joint film of her parents, and since she already loves dance and films I wanted her to try and get into BW, seek justice for her parents from Abhay, Nikil and Pam but see what happened!!!

Cvs shouldn't listen to fans unreasonably without thinking properly because sometimes fans keep asking for different things, Cvs should rather have written a good story taking care of details and consistency but alas this didn't happen

One of the pleasant Scenarios would be Raja becoming a superstar (he is Rk's lookalike, some producer can spot him) he becomes rich and famous and of course he will along with Madhu learn about Rishbala and Madhu can join BW and the last thing they can do is a film starring both of them which is a tribute to Rishab and Madhubala Kundra's love story!

I know I should expect nothing not even this much after so many flopped tracks, but I was just saying that at least this way they can end the show in a pleasant way

Back to the episode, I guess they are trying to show Raja in a good light as a struggling, honest man and how much he cares for Madhu and that Madhu is seeing his good side and through these small things of daily life and hurdles their bonding will become stronger, so ok I got the message, I just hope it doesn't take much time before we see a successful classy Raja because only then we can enjoy, I might sound superficial, but I admit that arrogant, intelligent, handsome, powerful, twisted rich, classy, unpredictable heros are what I like most

Guys, firstly Rishbala getting justice in the story is a petrifying idea, because it would be a reminder of their death - and more importantly, of the series not compensating for their death by getting acceptable viewership of 3+ TRP spectrum commensurate for this series.
If viewership they could get beyond the leap was as much and less than before the leap, and not the acceptable 3+ that the previous pairing managed at its fresh times, then the leap might prudently not be reminded of through its most unpalatable point of the termination of the previous couple which managed to hold mass-popularity and sponsors acceptance even through several consecutive unsuccessful mass-unappealing tracks.

If the parents were a mass-popular couple, then when the kid grows up and is presented to the audience with the face of one of the parents - which makes that kid the compensatory reason the audience was expected to get past the death of the parents -, mass-audience is known to have either one of two reactions -

1. Negative -
Being reminded of the previous pairing, they see the new pairing as not matching to the previous pairing, miss the previous pairing and get chafed that it was jettisoned to start new pairing.
Which may unfortunately lead to them opting to switch to any of the numerous other channels for couple which might potentially perhaps match the previous pairing, usually in that very screentime, and get habituated to not checking the channel that dissatisfied them - in which case even the series getting over and a next series starting might be deliberately skipped or, more worryingly likely, inadvertently missed.

Even if not, their getting chafed with the series and the channel for ending the previous pairing may have spillover negative effect on a channel's hopes of viewership-rebuilding for that screentime beyond that serial's run and also sometimes on the preceding and subsequent screentime, especially if most of the fictional serials aren't getting regular 3+ TRP that might have reassured the channel about risking rubbing it in the mass-audience's face that a serial's mass-popular couple was killed off and then not replaced with any as mass-appealing to match in that serial.

While a channel or PH may be willing to gamble if the sponsors continue to back them,
but if a channel/PH opt for something that the sponsors are sure will have negative dividends as foreseeably displeasing the reason - potentially enough millions of viewers to be commensurate with the screentime, budget and leads - for bothering to air commercial ads, the track-situation gets halted midpace or can proceed at the channel's loss for every day and every episode swallowing the expenses without sponsors backing.

2. Positive -
Or they love the new pairing much more - visibly in TRP terms - than the previous pairing.
Which means that the new pairing should get more than the highest TRP got by the previous pairing.
If that has been managed, then it's insurance for the channel and sponsors that the previous couple's kid can stand in front of their photo, and inadvertently remind mass-audience that the previous pairing was terminated to make the kid's love-story possible.
The high TRP would be the proof that the mass-audience loves the kid and the new pairing more than the kid's parents couple, and aren't seeing the kid as reminder of the story's destroying what they liked for something they ended up not liking as much in viewership terms.
If mass-audience is likely to think that the new pairing is much better, then they can be counted on *not* to get irate at the reminder of why the story opted to have the parents dead from a nonstoryline point.

So the whole point of reminding about the dead lead-couple or not may prudently be considered in a nonfandom perspective.
A couple loved by mass-audience enough to get 3+ TRP for at least a month or more, but most of those millions of people not using fandom portmanteau name, and may or may not know the actor/actress's real name.
What they know is the name of the series, the 'husband', the 'wife', and the channel.
The 'husband' and 'wife' are already dead. The only two who can now bear the brunt are the series and the channel. And since the channel outlasts the series, it has more to lose.
Serials also usually avoid as generally unreassuringly risky gamble, unhappy ending or even a story where the audience might expect unhappy ending, because mass-viewership expecting - even from the most barebones inaccurate guess - that the screentime may be going to be depressing has an unfortunate possibility of whittled down from the unlimited potential for viewership possibilities of 4+ and above.

And the other thing is that every series which has focussed on a female lead as actress or model have either had to close the track or the series from staggering lack of viewership in every variation in the past two decades.
The one hope of selling it in this series was with a combination of several factors to buffer the mass-unappealing point in mass-acceptable factors - the couple happily married, the wife getting mass-approbation as an ideal devoted wife and bahu prioritizing her domestic dutifulness above all else, the husband being extremely successful in the profession and mentoring his wife into it, both husband and wife ironclad about her only working under his aegis, her never overshadowing him, and it being emphasized constantly that her career is owed to her husband's support and with his more successful aegis. A litany of regressive factors to make the extremely mass-unappealing career acceptable for mass-viewership and *not* get them thinking that screentime avoidable as contravening their sensibilities.
Going against any of those factors has a guarantee of the wife's glamour-career being terminated and her being back as housewife, or the series closed with the sponsors lingering adverse reaction for such mass-appalling track-factor having been pushed ahead with its absolute trackrecord of viewership-lack in every variation.
The previous attempt last year managed to contravene not just one but all the track-factors that could have permitted the female lead to continue in glamour-career, unreassuringly showcased in the termination of all supporting characters associated facilitatorily with that career-track, whereas the supporting character detested by the fandoms was maintained almost until the leap.
At least from the time the commercials-capping started late last year, any character or track that may cause the mostly conservative nonfandoms mass-audience to switch the channel out of disinterest and/or distaste is either made extremely conservatives-pleasing conciliatory in manner, or removed in almost absolute cleanslating.
If this series - or any series - could show a track of the female lead as actress or model, it would need to be with the husband more successful or her career terminated. More importantly, it would be perhaps the first time in two decades that such a track featuring highly paid leads in a primetime series wouldn't have tanked badly enough with noncommensurate viewership-amount to close either the track or the series. So yes, if it could be managed, it would be a big thing. But this series has proven mass-appallingly failing at tracks which have far less daunting a trackrecord of viewership-reaction.
