I don't know if the channel is interfering... essentially, I think what happened was:
—Entire cast of the Pandya Store was cordial in the beginning because new show, new set, new people. No one wants to make bad impressions. Ratings were decent (not terrific, but decent). Shiny and Kinshuk were getting all the attention as the main couple pre-leap.
—Post-leap, everyone was still cordial because ratings were steadily going up, and everyone had equal screen space and presence. Even though Kanwar and Alice's fans were rising at a faster pace, Shiny and Kinshuk had a decent number of fans to keep a certain person at bay.
—Post-wedding happens, kidnapping drama occurs, and this is where nothing was the same again. Kidnapping drama was when Shiva and Raavi exploded as a pair, and this continues to this day. I think this is when Shiny's insecurities began. Perhaps, instead of using money, she became "best" friends with the executive members, offering her co-workers opportunities via Lavesh should they want it. As Shiny became closer to the behind the scenes people, the story began to slowly shift (and all of this happened during Bikaner when the cast and crew were trapped in the haveli).
—Haveli was the last of the "old" writing of the CVs... and starting return to Mumbai, Lavesh made do with some of the "promises" Shiny gave out. So, as a thank you, they increased scenes and tracks for her and decreased Shiva and Raavi to being pure lollipops...
