Agreed on every point that you have made. If we post anything more then it will be fan war which I don't intend to.
I am at loss of words when I read about Gul's comment. It was really disheartening from a producer to come up with such replies just because fans have been flooding her account with comments...Strangely the comment is deleted and then the show writer sends out a peace message to all Shivika fans... ummm... not sure why are they trying to pacify if they think and know they are right !!! Sigh !!!!I understand that she wanted to make a story on three brothers with family drama... but as far as I remember it didn't go that way except for the initial episodes...Then focused was shifted to Shivika and it did work for them in terms of numbers... I have read about the same in more than one interview by both Gul and Harneet. yes people had missed Obros but that didn't really affect the TRP of IB.Its a fact that Shivika and Narbhi saved IB and had good numbers until merger. I haven't watched DBO so I wouldn't comment on that. But as an ardent Shivika and Narbhi fan I do feel bad that these guys are not given their due credit... yes we had good story and tracks but Narbhi made them alive and lived the characters to the core that even after the merger and all illogical and non sense tracks, people like me still watch because for me Narbhi made Shivika and IB what is is today...If you can't give credit to them it's fine but then atleast don't demean their hard work by saying that Shivika alone didn't fetch numbers...when in fact every one in fandom is aware of numbers... atleast the barc ratings...I am done with my rant but every one and the producer can say whatever they want but Shivika is and will always be a brand in itself. Done.

She said TEAMWORK where the whole team wasnt there in the show for a lot of episodes.
Kunal and lee were busy for dbo since Jan.
I remember cribbing for Om's body double for a lot of important scenes.
"Only dbo fans should see the Ishqbaaaz from June 16 - Jan 17 properly to understand that Gul was wrong.
Dunno which trp she calculated. Sigh.
They showed pinky priveer kamini track during ipl and we viewers kept thinking cos of ipl they are dragging the track. Om and Rudy were literally guest appearance during this phase.
Especially during priveer shaadi hungama.
From FEB to COMPLETE MERGER -
SHIVIKA WAS THE LEAD OF THE SHOW LIKE HOW OMRU WERE LEADS OF DBO.
So it was Shivika who got ISHQBAAAZ back on track.
Now after the merger it is the story of all three brothers and the 3 couples.
So the trp from now is to be calculated and analysed TO SAY ITS TEAMWORK EFFORT OF THE SHOW.

I can understand why fans are upset, but at the same time she always behaves like this so it never bothers me. I find her social media exchanges entertaining 😆
I watched both shows and it was obvious she wasn't interested in either show, but IB survived the disinterest while DBO didn't. That is a fact. Star Plus gives a warning so Omru are sidelined for Shivika and that pattern continued until DBO happened. I'm not sure why she had to demean others hardwork to sell the idea of teamwork. There is no denying that teamwork made IB possible, but stating wrong numbers and taking away credit wasn't cool. IB was doing fine even during IPL so to say Shivika doesn't work alone is not only a lie, but it's a disservice to the actors that carried the show. Like DBO achievements were their own during the successful weeks then IB sucess should be their own as well.I have the same stance I've always had with her. Ignore everything she says because she flips according to whatever she makes her look capable😆 She wanted to make DBO so "Omru didn't need Shivika" and "Shivika didn't need Omru". She almost destroys IB and destroyed DBO because her interest was elsewhere. The shows need to be merged so now "Shivika needs Omru and Omru needs Shivika". Then 70 +episodes of hour slot so it's the "OBros need each other". Did we get the OBros? Nope, it was random filler tracks and villains. This is her pattern if TRPs fall and the TRP audience don't accept the new formula she will scrap and pretend she never made those statements in the past. Instead of acknowledging her mistakes and trying to fix both shows she just looks for a scapegoat. "This" needs "that", "this didn't get TRPs", or "Shivika needs OBros and OBros need Shivika". When in reality all both shows needed was attention and a better script 😆She wanted to be right so she discredited their hardwork.
