Is romance losing track on prime time TV?

Is romance losing track on prime time TV?


Madhubala...Ek Ishq Ek Junoon; Duration: (June 2012 - August 2014)

Even Vivian Dsena and Dhrashti Dhami's scorching chemistry couldn't save this show that went from being the most watched to the most panned, until it went off air in mid Augut

how can leads save a show if there is no decent story.the mb1 had a great storyline but post leap it was a mish-mash of sheer rubbish. TOI should realize that when the PH has no story to offer then the brilliant chemistry of the leads can't save any show.

🤣 If family drama saves the show then MEIEJ would have been still continued but no it didn't why? What they had written was full on ride of laugh in context of MEIEJ. Till Rishbala love story MEIEJ was hit according to me and when the family drama of Sultan step brother started show went into the drain and never picked it up. Youngster understand compromise that is why they showed story between r***** and r*** victim. 🤣 Kuch bhi and what MEIEJ was doing in this article don't know when it is history ke jab jab inhone family drama MEIEJ mien gusaya tha tab tab show ke haalat buri hui thi and then I remember in end they used to bring RK back on centre to save the show. 🤪 This show closed down before leap because Rishbala was cut out and after leap because Rajbala was never given proper chance and if given they brought odd track out of nowhere.

Thanks for sharing it though I still don't agree. Show proper love story with strong base line and it will still can work it out. 😆

Right shahi! They spoiled RK's character, RK's father & mother's & madhu's character for that bhai's entry! There was no proper storyline for rishbala! Actors are not responsible for anything! they done their role perfectly! colors & ph are responsible for all this mess!

Two major errors in the article -

1) MEIEJ started in May 2012, *not* June 2012.

2) MEIEJ has *not* had love tracks as *focus* since March 2013 to August 2014.

Lack of TRP can be credited accordingly to the channel's consistent attempts in every consecutive track for more than a year to split the mass-popular lead-couple and replace/downgrade the male-lead.

If tracks are focussed on showing the male lead as either villainous or helpless, to try to separate the lead-couple and shift focus onto solitary triumphant female-lead,
then the pairing's chemistry has no chance of salvaging the mess.

They even showed the marital rape track and the wife taking the matter to court.
Did they really think mass-audience are fools to think that was a romance?

With a mass-popular couple, romance tracks are watched.

Not retroactive inaccurate claims about the series *supposedly* having had romantic tracks (by the most bizarrely new definition of 'romantic'),
to deny the actual appallingly *unromantic* tracks flop with sterling viewership-lack of enough millions of people interested in foreseeably mass-appalling tracks.
