First of all, please understand SM uproar or offscreen drama rarely have any influence on the storyline. As a business, it's only the TRP that matters! The crap served gave them The desired results, and It shall continue!
Coming back to adoption, it's a brave, bold step that no one cares about to date. Millions of children are homeless, and show like these reiterate the importance of having our DNA continuity.
I am sharing a video that shall give you a fair amount of idea of the existing problem.
Our neighbouring show, which ended despite being so progressive where the female lead gives up love to pursue her education, was purely business too.
The show's last scene shows the male trying to make perfectly round rotis serving hot food while the girl is eating with the entire family.
That's progressive, and SM was erupting with people spamming with love, but the show ended.
It goes to Show TRP matters! Content consumption is a very layered subject, and trusts me, you'd be surprised to see most writers, when they write for OTT, churn out different content. It's sheer business.
Coming back to adoption, PS will not show it. TRP audience craves for Apna Khoon more.
Male infertility-big taboo too. I have given up hope.
Can't agree with u more here...we have to take the bitter truth that daily soaps no matter what won't be able to survive with anything progressive.. daily soaps are just fiction stories about how regressive contents can have a beautiful romantic and happy side..its more like the way we think that our world needs to develop and be more accepting to the progressive mentality..soaps are more into trying to connect with such people who are not able to accept the progressive mentality.. and judging by trps I think there r a hell lot of people who can connect to such matters..it is not necessary that these people would be as harmful as anitha or mami or suman blackmailing to throw her dils out in a year I she didn't get her grandchild.. but nevertheless they all had known someone who did hurt them like mami..faked friendship or coned them like anitha......pressurised them like suman.compared to that, people like rishitha are not that common..maybe more common mostly among current generation kids..but still way behind the former public..and show makers are basically business people..they sell what is received the most..so it's pointless to expect anything progressive until and unless the trp chase is shut down..
I do think adoption track is off the book as of now..atleast not until dhara is clinically shown to be unfit to conceive at all..
