The actors know it...we know it...so it is not possible that the channel does not. They are not fools to not know the REAL reasons for low TRPs. It was not totally the tracks or PH at fault, major contributor of low TRPs was the channel itself by shifting the time and then airing no promo...never tweeted about Parichay, gave no segments (only just b4 axeing they gave) Stopped inviting SBS/SBB to the sets😡😡etc etc...so now it is their responsblity towards their viewers to rectify their MISTAKE and come with Parichay Season 2

The cast has been vocal, media has been reporting this for some time now and the channel is yet to react!! #Shame

Hope the channel realises its mistake and comes back with season 2!

Again as always, Sameer Sir is bang on!

Rashmi, I guess channel is also aware..thts d reason they posted article promise of entertainment post Parichay..wat was d need to mention Parichay there...it clearly shows tht our efforts r being noticed but they dnt want to acknowledge coz of their ego...I m waiting for the day when they wl fall flat in their own game.

coming back to the article.. I agree to Samir..the story had lot of potential n many things r left to explore..this is abrupt ending n channel played a big game to axe this show..I wish this comes with S2 n Samir produces it so tht v wl be spared from the torture..

This is called APNE HI PAIR MEIN KHULHADI MAARNA! Very apt for Colors TV!

Parichay was the only show that dealt with urban life in the channel on which even every show looks rural!

Every show has its ups and down with the tracks, so I actually don't blame the makers!

Bigg Boss, the show for which Parichay was shifted to a late night slot, failed miserably in the ratings and wasn't a mile close to the star plus shows!

And now the shows running in the 9-10 slot aren't performing!

Let me see now how this rural show replacing Parichay performs!

Well I have always be thinking, will Colors TV do the same its shows like MB, BV, SSK and all start failing in the ratings?

All I can say is Colors TV have dug their own grave! Now with Parichay ending, every show of theirs is rural! This might not be liked by city people!

Colors TV

I don't think time slot change had anything to do with it. As long as story is good, ppl will watch the show. This show didn't do well as the makers didn't stick one bit to the original story line and compared to other shows in the same timeslot, this was by far the weakest... where story was concerned.

nancy I would disagree with you. Storylines have very little to do with TRPs. Shows with nonsensical storylines can also have great TRPs

I disagree with you when you say that it had the weakest story -- Some of the tracks were not acceptable but every other serial has tracks like that but in comparison to the other serials Parichay is still the most realistic with a very natural setting which was not loud & OTT with overdone makeup, gaudy dresses or overacting -- Parichay has one of the most talented star caste & no other colors lead jodis can compare to SINAL in terms of acting or chemistry as none of them are as captivating as Kunal -Siddhi (Sameer & Keerti) -- I think the only other Jodi that came close to SINAL were IPKKND lead -- This is my POV no offence to anyone.

I agree that time slot change was the reason for low TRPs because how many people would stay awake at 10.30 when they could see the replay at a convenient time the following day ????? Over the last 2 months the story has been meaningful & interesting & all the channel needed to do was give it a time slot change before deciding to pull it off air --- Colors ran a number of polls since valentines day & Parichay topped in all the polls so why was public opinion disregarded ??? WHY DID THE CHANNEL RUN POLLS IF THEY HAD NO INTENTION OF LOOKING AT THE RESULTS & CONSIDERING VIEWERS OPINION.

I would like to challenge colors to changes the time slot of they current top serials to 10.30 slot without promoting it with proper promos & find out how many people would prefer watching it the following day at a more convenient time so that it would prevent them from making decisions in future which affect loyal colors viewers of a unique serial like parichay --

If Colors values the opinion of this segment of intelligent viewers they will prove it by confirming Parichay season 2 SOON
