Divya I like the way you have analysed the trps and story. Yes it's crystal what has been working for udaan trps. Pity they got rid of kn. His character still had so much potential. He is an evergreen villain.
I understand that we went down to 2+ from 3+ but I guess our slot has always been competitive. While other shows got it easy our show faced the strongest competition all the time. Despite that we are successful and still making it in top 10 fiction. touch wood. But yes they need to be careful and not mess up. The writing recently has been weak. Hope the leap brings back good writing. Writing and execution are most imp

As far as their favourite character goes, they will continue experimenting with her and she will keep on failing and proving her limitations. The cycle will go on and on.

Meera said she doesn't want to play cheesy bahu
I hope they don't turn her into one
They should stick to the main theme

Interesting discussion everyone, here how I would've taken the story forward:
Chakor wins the elections and kick hyar out who end up staying in a small cottage in Azaadganj and villagers keep making fun of them (they can stay in a villa in Lucknow because their shady business hasn't been exposed yet).
Suraj convinces Chakor to go on honeymoon before taking office and she agrees. We can see their romance, they'll stay in a small hotel, the owner is harassed by a big businessman to sell it and Sukor will help him in his fight, meanwhile hyar sent their goons to kill Sukor but all their attempt are inept.

After their return, Suraj will restart the water bottle factory and hyar will try to sabotage it but it will finally open, after a few months people start falling ill and the water is blamed, Chakor comes under attack in the media and vows to find out the truth. Hyar are behind the contamination and they end up going to jail.

Bini, I won't put much faith on the producer's words, it may just refer to Imli's characterization and how she's unconvincing as new KN/Ragini. They may also be thinking that giving focus to Imli gave higher TRP than giving focus to RV which is true on the surface but it was in fact because of the dragging post Suraj getting his memory back and some flaws in the writing for the climax.
I think a manipulative jogan will be a better fit for Vidhi but whoever will be with her will be strictly a sidekick unlike RV. I think made a judgement error in how they portrayed hyar after the leap, they should've made Imli more interested in money and made RV the brains, the characterization of RV in particular was off, he was a cold blooded sadist in Banaras and they turned him into a clown.

The best period for the show ranking and viewership-wise was in October-December 2016 followed by the same period in 2017. Even during the bride swap phase the show was in and out of top 10. Udaan viewers like the story to stay away from typical saas-bahu stories and like the focus to be on Sukor, whenever they tried to give Imvaan attention they lost viewers.

Also people need to be convinced, that's why baby track 2 never clicked neither did the phase after it when Chakor kept giving in to KN's blackmail. In the first time Suraj's reason was unconvincing and the divorce was seen as a success for Ragini, in the second case the fight was one-sided and Imvaan, KN and Ajay were the heroes and not Sukor.
They should also remember that KN and Ragini were never given as much ss as Imli and RV got and if an actor of the caliber of Sai Ballal Sir isn't given enough ss, then less talented ones shouldn't. The issue isn't the immediate track (it'll probably be about Imli instigating her followers against the baby) but what they'll show afterwards.

They should've left the door open to the return of KN because he was one of the best villains on TV.

The leap promo has released and they has been a mixed response to it. Some excited, some apprehensive, some confused and some like me who firmly believe they don't need to take any leap story wise

Let's look at some crucial points and options they should have considered before taking another leap

Sukor have never really stayed as husband wife under one roof. The writers could focus on showing us that transition. Sukor moving into the haveli, sharing the same bed.

Before Sukor move into the haveli they can show Sukor lavish wedding.

Tejaswani has been away from Sukor for so many years. They could show some of their bonding. They never showed chakor calling Tejaswani mas properly. They could dwell on their relationship. They could show Tejaswani has developed some mental
illnesses bec she was locked on a room for yrs. They can show Sukor get her treated

Yes suraj wants a baby and chakor to wants to fulfill his dream of a happy family but I want to see the journey, I mean suraj discovering chakor is expecting again, Sukor scenes with the doctor, he taking her for regular checkups, a happy godh bhai and suraj being there when doc congratulates him for the birth of the baby girl. Suraj thanking chakor, both holding their baby for the first time. All this phase can be shown slowly over 6 months of so side by side with the a drama based track

The makers could have gone through a infertility issue track too. If executed well that track can get trps up because trp aunties love emotional drama too. They could show Sukor go abroad for treatment.

An abroad track could have been used. They could show chakor is called for some marathon contest and Sukor go abroad. Their they faces conspiracies due to rivals who don't want chakor to win

They could show Sukor collect evidence against hyar and then a mini court track, where Sukor lawyer will turn out to be old enemy of RV

They could show a solid climax for the RV imli track, with high voltage drama. Suraj confronting Imli. After all that, if they don't show that, then what's the point.

They can get rid of imli for few months and bring a new villain, someone linked to RV

They can show a track centering

Chakor marathon career
Suraj opening some NGO or factory
They can show Sukor search for the brides imli sold off and bring them back to their families
They can show ragini come back and claim the property
They can show either kn or vivaan being alive and making come back
They can show new family enter azaadganj who is powerful and their clash with Sukor and villagers
They can show a doc enter azaadganj and he/she create probs

So many ideas, I don't think they need a leap with a baby in the picture.




@Bold - I share the exact same thoughts. It was my dream to see sukor back in their room, sharing the same bed...just the two of them... no baby just yet... I wanted to see that transition very badly ever since Chakor decorated their room & bought that sofa-cum-bed.
