I also skipped it for a long time and watched it after my sis recommended me. I didnt watch it when it was on air so maybe didn't get the hype.
I tried watching Khaani too but I found it very boring. Couldn't bring myself to watch more than 2-3 episodes.
Same khani was boring for me too, I think I stopped watching once the girl runs away to another city with her family.
It was a very extreme drama, feroze was full negative criminal murderer character and there were no scenes between leads except those repeatedly shown dance sequence. So I didn't continue.
Even the thumbnail is captioned as a Tere Bin comparison so of course had to watch it. Because it’s been a year and still Tere Bin’s name gets used for engagement.
