I don't think there will be any improvement from her side regarding her writers. The line that made me go 🤣 in the above Rajeev's IV, along with that insecure question is,'please tell me why six creatives (creative directors) have been appointed. Just to get fat salaries?'. I am now feeling more respect towards Rajeev, HC and now Parth, who had the guts to say a no to EK when they realized that working for long in her daily shows will not give them that creative satisfaction. I hope Eri too would have put down the papers for the same reason.

Harshad was banned from her show because HC and Aditi fans troubled her after KDMHMD. Not creative diff. Their fans were mad when the show ended. . But she made tere liye with HC. But it took many more years to melt toward Aditi. Aditi played parallel lead in Pardesh mai hai mera dil. But Aditi quited after some time.

Why I included HC here is because, he too belongs to that league of actors who will not say a yes to anything EK offers, just because she is the TV Czarina. I missed one name. Iqbal Khan. He too is one of the actors who are made for finite shows only and stick to his words.

If she doesn’t improve the writing in her shows, then the success rate will take a hit. She may have diversified onto other mediums but profitability and the ad draw on TV will remain the highest. There is a hindi saying " Kaath ki haandi baar baar nahi chadti" meaning you can’t cook in a wooden pot twice, audience move on and how quickly. All these regional show remakes seem to be doing well, because of the stories. TV is copying the Hindi film industry here.

The honesty in Rajeev`s interview is refreshing. However, not all TV actors will be able to chart out a path of their own. Such candidness does not work at our own workplaces too. You just choose the least bad option available.

@ bold 1 : 6 is way too many. Too many cooks spoil the broth, any broth. Wonder if KZK had the same issue.

@ bol 2: Possibly, else she would be playing mom to Kukki`s kids by now. She did not even look like Sneha,s mom, whereas she did look like Suhana,s mom.

And the history repeated with Parth 🤣

The only difference is that, from her past experiences, EK learned a lesson that actors who have belief in themselves cannot be stopped by anyone and that she herself will need them later in her projects. Good going Parthuu. 👏

Let’s be honest, everyone knew how shitty the storyline of this show is even before the reboot began. I wonder what convinced Parth of KZK being a show with a great story and what changed in 2 years. Lol If he was approached and he rejected, then that would have been something. Putting down the papers after the show had already begun to dwindle and its clear that there is no future doesn’t seem like something to be proud of. The story has always been horrible.

Bang on.


Moreover, we were told that parth never demanded anything , that the media is against him, erica quoted some other reason for shutting down . Cant believe we go through this again . 🤢

Koi shaq? KZK2 started, with already 3creatives Shivangi, Shreya and Aakansha on board, headed by their senior creative Chloe. Later for AnuNePreKoKyonMara track, EK got 2more Senior CVs Anil Nagpal and Tanu on board. So total 6 CVs were involved for the special track. At least that's what could be understood from EK's posts while promoting that track. 😆

6🤣 A layman would have done a better job. Frankly , kahani parvati ki( the serial in the doctor serial at.9.pm.previously) made more sense to me than kzk2.

Choddo, mitti pao ab. 5 women didn't want a strong Prerna in that last track, or at least someone who didn't keep harping badla. All talk no action. Wonder what does it take to be an EK creative, seems like a lucrative job, zyaada kaam nahi hai. Even fan fictions of amateur writers are better.

Lesson list also works for those who want to. EK will cast the actors and the whole team in other projects if she wants them in her coterie. Hope there are better shows for all, the audience most of all and maybe we meet to discuss better characters and stories which we connect to 😊

Didn’t get the reference. Anyway 6 logon se kuch ho na ho wo EK ka sardard. I am so done with this show, that will have to take a break again from ITV.

Enjoyed your wicked sense of humor, can totally relate to many things you expressed 😊

Oh thx yaar. 😆



Kahani parvati ki was a spoof on indian serials , full of supernatural wives (who can operate on their husbands and save their life ), become a Nagin makhi whatever 😆


We all were done with this shitty show. Still I am kinda curious reg what happened off screen, pata toh lag hi jayega..one day or the other. 😆 Meanwhile I cant express my happiness over its failure and the shut down. Ah !big relief.
