Even a blind man could see the writing on the wall chic...the decision to pull the plug must have been taken much before the fls health issues...no active promotion of the show anywhere on sns...no promos on tv...no repeats even...all the signs were there... Its the delusional fans who couldn't see it for what it was...neither Nikita nor namik are such big names yet in tv. Industry that a ph will decide to shut their show to accommodate their whims...there has got to be some issues between the phs and the channel ...unfortunately Nikita seems to be a convenient scapegoat...keeping your personal likes and favourites aside...how hard is it to realize that the ultimate decision to axe the show was taken by the ph or the channel...the actors aren't holding them at gun point todo it right? blame the real culprits..

I might be in the minority but I seriously think the show lost ts charm long before...it isn't the same as it was ...it has lost its steam long back although fans might disagree.even the Cvs seem to have lost interest in their product...considering it was to be a finite series...maybe the channel has decided its not worth investing anymore in it even after replacing the fl...at the end of the day it's their business that matters to them.

About ipk...I loved it ..warts n all...had no knowledge of if or the fandom wars at the time...so my experience was untainted😃 by the time it shut shop it had become one nonsense.

I am just glad I didn't get so emotionally involved this time with edkv so it's much easier forme to move on to greener pastures😉

very true ..it was very clear how the channel was being partial...now blame the actor and make her scape goat.

EDKV was just gaining steam...thats what makes it sad...But I still dont feel that sad as it was during IPK ...first heart break is always most difficult 😆

Sim,

I feel there is something beyond Niki's illness here...that is just the tip of the iceberg.

There is something else going on...and as always, we will never get the full story..What we are getting now is only a rumour...it is always like that. The fans never get to know what the real story is...Except when KV quit...because he came out boldly and said he was quitting, the second time..(In my TV experience that was the best quitting!😆)

Where there is a will there is a way. The show must go on...but it is not going to..

Nikita's tweet seems to suggest she is not a part of this controversy...she knows something is happening, but she is not directly involved.

It is something between the PH and the channel..some EGO war..I am pretty sure by now.

Radha,

I am pretty sure Sony just plain neglected EDKV because the other two shows started fetching more trps. This PH is a fresh one, so they need the support of the channel for the promos and all...at that juncture, the channel failed to support. Most likely, they would have asked for a break now and the channel would have reduced. Its not just Niki who is sick- many people are, like Namik said.

For all U know, after this bitter experience, this PH may not even come out with any more shows... Sony is one of the few channels that support quality of content and here they have been denied support.

Yes, the PH must have its ego too..after a certain point they would have thought why continue if it is not generating revenue and everyone is sick...on top of the loss in revenue, they have to bear the step motherly treatment too..They would have decided to give up, rather than build up more losses.

And no show on any channel can stubbornly air whatever content they want to...If that had been the issue, the channel would have stepped in and told them to change the track...here it was not that, I can assure U that.

Chick, I am not blaming the leads especially not Nikki. God knows how critical she was, I am happy that she is back on the road to recovery. Right now, her health is much more important than the show.

The first 3 months or so Sony was promoting both the shows equally. But since then they were clearly skewed towards KRP. Wonder why? That is also when our PH started the hate track, while KRP started with confession. Anyways, the PH might be new... but they had done Tere Sheher mein in SP. There again the story was very good for the first 3 months, but did not fetch the trps. SP changed the PH!! Why?

Am sure this PH is a bit inflexible with the content. They would not have locked horns with the channel, but they might have found ways to circumvent the channel. They are good... but they lost the path in the second half here... maybe the pressure got to them. But after 70 episodes... EDKV was not the same. It was neither realistic nor reel. Hope the show gets an extension. So many are trying... lets hope for the best... would love to see the story get a closure with all the lose ends tied.

SP changed the PH! 🤢 No wonder that show hit the rock bottom...These guys would have refused the utter crap that SP aired during the later half...U do know how it ended, right?

And what about bade bhaiya? U think they have been neglected because of content? They were not even given a chance to pick up...quite a decent show- far better than KRPK and ERSK which are both awfully filmy! 🤢

These guys were even given an extension, right?

I think Sony has no idea how popular the show is, and how skewed teh trp thng is...

Too bad if no channel will support quality over quantity of trps!
