I came to know of the gay track in Maryada an year after it ended --- I used to watch it and lost interest and then it just disappeared to 11 PM slot -- not for kids and all that bs after the new track
and they dealt very sloppily with the characters and their relationship too. Like, first i was enjoying the scenes, there was so much intensity and pain -- but then they just messed it up big time. Seriously, Karan and Gaurav's chemistry was awesome.
Like, they started it, couldn't deal with it, didn't know where to take it, so just ended it.
KY2 though? 6:30 slot -- a popular show for youngsters -- They are leaving it out in the open. No wonder people don't even know or remember the track in Maryada.
