Initial hype also matters a lot. It gave a huge Kickstart..plus the theme , surrendering to Allah , I think such themes r very much appreciated .
I will give the credit where it's due..the cast , larger than life characters, grandeur, performances , everything added to the success..plus there is a curiosity factor..inspite knowing that story is dud , ppl know it will lead to the path of God, so they are not giving up.
Yes, the theme of being in love and surrendering to God is always a tear jerker and will always attract audience no matter what. The kickstart was huge, but to survive at the same pace is definitely due to the wholesome entertainment delivered by the entire team. Even though we all have our own issues with inconsistent writing, I think they have clicked somewhere which the makers even do not know, it could be the self inflicting tragedy or the way they have presented the show, or could be the beautiful performances, overall KAM3 is a definition of how a show can be elevated by every other entertaining factor despite not having a unique story. Also, as you have said surprisingly there is always a curiosity factor, even though we know what might happen next, we do want to watch it.
Also, TV and YT viewers do not really discuss the show in depth the way we do, so for them it is like an emotional ride 😆
