I was thinking not to comment on this forum but ur post broke my silence Meenu dii. Now this does explain why the trp works so weirdly. So its not just about how many ppl watches the show, but also the matter of luck. If most of those 50,000 ppl watch the show, the show is lucky and gets good rating. It does make sense 🤔🤔 Now I also get it why GTNHP is mostly the no.1 zee tv show on UK, that's because they collect every data, and yeah GTNHP was the only show I liked of zee for quite some time and the only show of the channel that once used to make sense and was watchable(at least for me)
Coming to the story, I m someone who is more into logic than romance. I like to watch shows that have a better storyline. Personally I enjoy shows that r good even if the pair's chemistry isnt great over shows that has a good pair but pathetic storyline. It's rare for ITV shows to have both the good chemistry and storyline at the same time, GTNHP was that show for me till they brought in Antra track, now it's a show with good pair but pathetic storyline. Besides GTNHP, I m watching two other shows on and off because of good story but neither of the show's pairing attrached me much(one has an average pairing one has a not so good pairing) I always prefer show that has good story than a good pair, shows that has both I have a special attachment towards such shows, which is why i used to be so attracted towards the show, I just feel bad that they are turning the show into an ordinary show just for the sake of trp. If this show was a show with good pair but poor storyline from day one, i won't have cared about the show, but it's just that i feel really bad to see a good show with good pair being spoiled. For 3 years I had the same fav show/jodi, but last year my fav changed to Akshan(show wise it was never my fav, but used to be one of my favs) But this Antra track is too disappointing.
Before Antra track, throughout the show I think if there was one track that disappointed me that would be Angad track but makers redeemed themselves really well and covered the mistake they made by turning Angad to positive and also the fake memory loss was fakely executed. Though Dadi Bua track didn't bring a 'fast' process to the story, I still loved that track and appreciated it, because I liked how positive Akshan's relationship was and how supportive Akshat was as a husband which was something unique for me. I rather prefer tracks like Dadi Bua track that moves the story slowly even with some logic than Antra track that comes from nowhere and complicates the story even more and makes it highly ridiculous and unrealistic.
For me, after Antra track the show isn't the same anymore for me which was why I was watching it on and off, i think i didnt watch a single episode from 2nd week of july till end of july, i was just reading written updates. Because Akshan has a really special place in my heart, now I have decided rather than disappointing myself from watching later episodes I rather enjoy the Akshan scenes from the older episodes. If the later episodes happens to have good and meaningful Akshan scenes then i will watch those clips on social media. Moreover I am an international viewer so I won't have been contributing to TRP either. But frankly speaking it's a poorly designed system for ratings. Just my opinion.
