How r IB n DBO working hand in hand? - Page 2

I think the difference in time lines is just teething issues.. I think the makers are experimenting with the spin off for the first time. They will take some time to figure timelines etc.

Really confusing. I think they should have technically shown Shivay exiting from Ishqbaaz yesterday and then gng to Barreilly to get Om for a day. They could have shown him gng by his private chopper and getting Om so that would have justified how he went fast and came back instead of confusing the audience.
Also Svetlana drama will continue in Ishqbaaz as I just saw on tv seg Shivay telling Om to agree to marry Svetlana as he has a plan to expose her . Now on the other hand Svetlana has given Om an ultimatum to marry her in DBO so how can we say there is no continuation & both shows r in diff time zones.
Also Gauri is entering OM. Tomorrow (mon) Svetlana will meet with an accident in DBO so is it that same day in Ishqbaaz she will be perfectly Ok that's wired. CVs need to handle this well. According to me they should show a continuation.

Once the 2 shows have moved onto the same set it will get easier to match the time lines and incidents.

Like in both Shows Om is back in Oberoi Mansion as is Rudy

Yes I think you r right once they will move on ove location it will be easier for them to shoot both the shows together and show continuation of its characters and events. Also from March both the shows will be aired from Mon - Fri no episodes on weekends so that will also give the actors time to shoot for both the shows and reduce longer hours of shooting.

A spin off by defenition is not an "extension" of the original show. This is coming from someone who has watched many spin off's! The spin off consists of some characters from the original show. People from the original show can make "guest appearances" in the spin off, and visa versa (if the original show is still running). In some cases when the spin off started they were not, in some cases they were! But there is no issue of timelines matching. The idea is that BOTH shows can be viewed separately without any connection to each other! The only "confusion", if you can call it that, is for people watching both shows!

People need to stop viewing IB and DBO as an extension of each other! They are two shows with the same characters and some new ones. But not everything will be running parallel to each other. The idea is if you want to watch one or the other, you should be able to. Someone who never saw IB can watch DBO and there is no confusion. Same applies for anyone just watching IB and not DBO. Don't know why everyone is hell bent on connecting the two shows all the time. They can run separately. But for Indian audience this is a first, and it is a first for channel and show makers too.

Don't forget that the DBO outdoor sequence was being shot from somewhere is Jan. So parts of their timeline will not match IB. It will take time for the two time lines to merge of sorts and people can move between the shows with ease. DBO was operating on a seperate parallel for two weeks. They were somewhere else. Both Om and Rudra. But now they are home the story can equalise. Maybe then audience watching both will not be confused. But the idea is to get anyone who has not watched either shows to pick one up and continue without wondering what is happening. That is the idea of a spin off. NOT to act as an extension of the original show.

Yaar even in the west's spin offs. The stories, esp the characters, have continuity. They don't have characters acting one way in one show and in another way in the other show. Look at TVD and The Originals.

Writers really need to work on this because right now, they're promoting the 2 shows as extensions of each other
