Indian Television - Then / Now / Next ? | DT No. 1 (Closed) - Page 44

Again Prem Bandhan got 0.9 list last week. I wonder how last week it got from 0.6 to 0.9 that is directly 50% viewers increasing that also on this lesser known channel. Other shows rating too increases but by 0.1 at a time looking by the channel standard but increasing by 0.3 looks suspicious. Even on well known channels nowadays ratings don't increase by 50% all of a sudden then why on this channel and only Ekta's show?

Bold-True. KYY seems like a Khichdi of BOF, a random American cheezy coming of age rom-com with some characteristics of Indian shows 🤣🤣🤣

The end result was horrible

But still it was very popular and even had 3 different seasons I guess! The worst part was the role of Second ML falling for the FL was played by 3 different actors in 3 different characters. That was the most UNBEARABLE PART of that KYY! 🤢

This show is being hinted from 2015. In 2015, they showed 'Radha Krishna' teaser with only name and a music in background while mentioning coming soon. Later this teaser stopped. Then this project kept stretching and changing of leads cast. Preetika Rao and Priyank Sharma were inital choice of Radha-Krishna. They later worked in an episodic of Laal Ishq. Yeah I know that because that promo was promoted a lot in Youtube at that time!

Even Avinesh Rekhi was one of the earlier choices of Krishna. It was supposed to made by Dheeraj Kumar of some other PH but it was handed to Swastik who made it into teenage love story and so was the changing of casts. You can find many articles regarding changing of plot, casts and even PH of the show.

But the promo and the cast ABOUT WHICH I was talking about was from Swastik only, Watch the promo once again!

It does say from the PH of Mahabharat (2013 series) which is indeed Swastik!

So, Swastik had initially chosen Chahat Pandey, Siddharth Arora, Madrakshi Mundle along with Sumedh as the MAIN CAST OF RK!

Mallika also had given the, BUT THEN SHE WAS SECOND CHOICE, only after Chahat left Mallika was called.

There's an interview where Mallika says, she gave the audition when she was in 10th, but then she was called that she got the selection in 12th,

So, you see, they had made the whole project with a few episodes with the initial cast, however scrapped them off and even the initial look of Sumedh for the present Series!

Kis tarah ka aadmi hai ye !!!! 😱😱😱😱😱😱🌚

Mallika singh was first finalised for star plus & rajshree productions show based on life of meerabai named as Meera Ke Manbhaavan in 2017.....then for some unknown reason they shifted that show on life ok's new revamped channel star bharat but after lot of time it got scrapped but channel nd siddharth tewari liked her audition nd her look from meera show that they casted her in radhakrishn by replacing chahat pandey thats how she got radhakrishn show

Check her look nd audition clip from star plus show Meera ke Manbhaavan

I really think star plus should make this show again on their channel it is really beautiful concept that too with sooraj barjatya only

i didnt know that krissan was the original choice for nandini.i don't know who would have been better as nandini.but krissan played innocent girl in 2 episodic series,short film n ssk .she was really good

It was shown on news channels. I said most of them not all or even a part of them. Okay even if they install in urban and rich houses but how mind set of person is measured. And how 30k families decide what at least 1-2 crores families are watching? I doubt many people in urban families will watch regressive shows but now kids and teenagers turning new viewers of these shows. Who do you think are followers of many overrated actors or who do you think vote for them in awards. In one of people opinion on Telly Chakkar site they asked in 1 audience viewer speak article about 1 track in the show. 1 adult woman said something like they are showing regressive or wrong thing but her own teenage daughter said so and so track is good and supposed to be for entertainment. Another young girl said positive about that topic. Don't remember which show this article was based but I was appalled by views of younger girls. So this is also one of the reasons why wrong shows get high ratings. These viewers are brainwashed due to good looking actors playing arrogant MLs and also they are brainwashed due to Mill&Boon novels and sexist shows from other countries so its not only the fault of aunties which people blame but of mostly youngsters. On MTV and Channel V, why only KYY and Sadda Haq are more famous than other good shows. Simple. Because MLs in both shows were arrogant and sexist while FLs were simple and sweet. In KYY, the channel was Krissann to play Nandini but Vikas Gupta convinced channels to make Niti as Nandini. So Niti got the role of Nandini and Krissann was pushed to 1 of the rich and arrogant female friends of ML. I think it surely happened due to childish and baby doll look of Niti to attract more viewers. Krissann would have been better Nandini as she too can play sweet and innocent girl roles as seen in her other shows.

I havent watched ekta "K" drama on sp from 2000's era as at that time my fam used to watch marathi dramas which were used to air on Etv marathi nd i only used to watch star plus kids block from fri-sun nd remaining time hungama nd jetix ....bt again i never liked those "k" serials when i watched their clips on insta they were so ott that it only made me feel cringe.....thank god rajan shahi bidaai gave them break from ekta's horrible dramas nd after that ekta k era ended rajan's bidaai made big revolution on itv nd after that colors social dramas totally ended monopoly of ekta k serials thats how itv content changed....You did a very sane thing. I had no other go, because I was put in a creche at that time as my parents were working and had to watch what the aunties over there watch. God, I really give a big thums-up to Shahi for ending the EK "K" era, otherwise she would have ruled with that era even today! Shahi was the ITV revolutioner of 2005, there should come a revolutioner for the 2020s paving way for comedy shows, kids shows and most of all finite series!

Yes yhm was also one horrible show from ekta....i never liked FL ishita i dont knw why bt i never liked her acting.....i think divyanka's oversweet nature always reflected in her acting which is too indigestible for me...The worst part of YHM was dragging it on nonsensical content, that has become like inevitable for EK in all her shows now.

Evn i also dont like yrkkh bt yes it is much bettr than bhagyas.....yrkkh atleast have some sanity in them compared to bhagyas nd if we look carefully yrkkh really evolved with time.....like from saree clad bahu akshara to modern cloths wali naira....they always made it upto new generation nd maybe thats what clicked with new generation nd thats the reason kaira is audience fav jodi even after horrible story writing nd innumerable seperations bt kkb nd kdb content never evolved they are still stuck into 80's regressive mindset..All EK shows even in this 2020 have that mindset!

I havent watched yeh wada raha neither i have watched their clips on insta so dont have any idea abt it....bt yes whenever i watch zee Rishtey awards winners list on internet i always see bhagyas getting 80% awards evn with such horrible writing ,horrible acting nd horrible execution which explains everything...Very true!

Bt in star parivaar i havent watched ekta is getting all awards last sp award was in 2018 where all shows were getting awards.....specially gul ib got maximum awards thanks to its online popularity

Yes nowdays sp only have ekta YHC they even closed ekta's dream project KZK even before yrhpk whose trp was worse than kzk ....if kzk was aired on zee then I'm sure it would have been aired for atleast 2 more yrs with that trp 1.4...Totally agree with you and plus Anil Nagpal was the main writer, he would have ensured that KZK2 ran for another 10 years!

Yes imlie have very much realistic approach than mohi which was clearly seen from its initial promos only.....here the FL is not typical itv fl who is very much beautiful but she is someone who more looks like normal regular girl from village side

I havent watched imlie so cant cmment on male lead bt in one IV gul said that imlie hero is not her typical male lead he is very diff from others he is not super rich male lead he is normal journalist who is passionate abt his work

Not only Imlie even the other FL, I don't know her name has the aura of very normal regular woman, though she comes from a rich family. Like she is college professor in Delhi and dresses like any college professor in Delhi would do, as I know because I too am from there (that was very realistic approach)

While, what I notice abt EK KKB lat Diwali, was that Prachi (Mugdha) had worn so HEAVY MAKE-UP just for coming and meeting her BF in Kohli house.

Like she was wearing some White dress and with that VERY DARK WHITE EYE-SHADOW, that looked so weird!

See, Prachi is a middle-class girl and who in middle-class wears such heavy make-up to go and meet a friend even though it is Diwali, like seriously, it was like RIDICULING THE MIDDLE-CLASS POPULATION!

And it was very weird because Mugdha is tan-skinned; I'm not saying Mugdha is not beautiful!

Of course, though tan-skinned she is more beautiful than fair-skinned Sriti but then that make-up was like eeewww.

Btw, I think Mugdha is a good choice for the remake of Karthamuthu/Karthik Purnima in Hindi.

I'm not humiliating Mugdha, because though dark-skinned, the FL is supposed to be a BEAUTIFUL WOMAN and Mugdha is beautiful!

But not someone like Krishna should be cast opposite her. Is there some scarcity of male actors who look rugged and around 27-30 in ITV or what? Krishna hardly has facial hair and he looks like Mugdha's little brother, even Sriti looks like Mugdha's younger sister for me (I think it's becasue of Sriti's weight, women with lower weight look younger)

Btw, about the ML of Imlie, yes you are right, he is not rich and very usual middle-class working man and for that DEGRADING THE MIDDLE-CLASS is done by his MIL (not Imlie's, but the other FL's mother)

But he is the usaual a**hole arrogant ML of Gul as he keeps humiliating Imlie for her dumbness and blaming her for their FORCED MARRIAGE!

Come on, it was not HER FAULT, but he just needs a SMALL REASON TO HUMILIATE HER!

And yes Imlie is not that dumb, but rather an intelligent girl who was the topper of her school, plus a girl who wants to create an identity for herself!

But recently, Imlie was shown to be an abla naari in the marriage of ML & 2nd FL as Imlie has fallen for the ML

Also we need proper kids-teens shows of finite series unlike the dragging ones of Sab TV. Or can they make TV version of Famous Five books which can be targeted to kids and teens. 1 book story can run for maximum 7 episodes. Kids mystery and adventure shows like Shaka Laka Boom Boom, Majooba Ka Ajooba, Cambala Investigation Agency, Chhoha Mantar needs to be back where even 13-14 year old kids acted like kids instead of adults. Now we see kids doing love and marriage drama on Tik Tok.

CIA was one of my favorites as a teenager, but the show never gained much recognition.

It had two seasons and only Sheena Bajaj a bit more in her career later I guess. Aditya Kapadia was a popular child actor, but then he has mostly only got supporting roles as an adult. Aditya Singh Rajput though again was a popular child actor, never gained recognition. He was seen in series like Gandi Baat! 🤢

Sheena Bajaj's was later replaced by Jasmine Alaap Singh in 2nd season!

Then you really missed one of most greatest ITV show POW btw now it is not available anywhere on web not evn on hotstar as their rights expired nd star hasnt renewed their rights so they cant upload it on hotstar...I didn't get the vibes to watch the show at that time

I have watched few epi of amla bt couldnt continue it becoz of its afternoon timing btw i have watched original turkish series fatmagul nd i loved it

Whereas i have fully watched dil sambhal ja zara nd i totally loved dil sambhal ja zara bt they ended it in cliffhanger when anant caught both ahana nd rehan btw i also have watched its original turkish show ask i memnu who have 79 episodes....btw turkish show run time is approx 130-140 mins nd if we calculate it from itv epi lengeth then ask i memnu 79 epi means 500-550 itv episodes nd they ended dil sambhal ja zara in just 75 epi only due to low trps

Mee too, I used to love DSJZ and also loved Rehana, though many Indians were against the concept of a young girl falling for her husband's nephew, the show was really good (the filming, actors were all a realistic take).

Yeah you are right, the turkish originals were named Fatmagul and ask-i-memnu both series of the same actress, I had forgotten their names 😆

At least, they should have given an ending for DSJZ, they just ended it abruptly on the cliffhanger 😔

Is this the right ranks? Because see this video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HItwUHSh2jQ

Here they are saying Kundali is No.2 instead of Imlie and Kumkum No.5 instead of Indian Idol.

Infact Kundali and Imlie have the same ratings and also Kumkum and Indian Idol!
