I started watching Humsafars after watching BP coz I became Harshad's fan then. Humsafars end was something I felt was abrupt. I mean this guy marries the FL forcefully despite having a comatose wife (yeah I know she was a baddie 😛) but literally they wound up the show in few episodes post the wedding. They never showed the lead couple live a happy life together. Of course I wanted them out of that house coz Sahir never truly belonged there. With BALH2 - I remember S1 was at least in top 10 and it was loved by the masses too. Donno if it was top 3 in terms of TRP or not. But here the TRPs are extremely poor. And add Nakul's health to it. It would have been nice if we got to see RaYa with Pihu move out of KM and start a life afresh where their friends and Priya's family helps them settle down. Ram rebuilding their world and them having a second kid. But more than half the viewers have quit the show. I am sure the online ratings that kept this show going will drop too. I donno if Nakul's popularity can sustain this show for long. I know I am sounding like a pessimist but they r bringing back all characters together. Neeraj, Vedu and Akki. Looks like it is headed towards a culmination. RaYa ka safar was never truly a RaYa ka safar, more like suffer 😛 and it was a crime thriller to find out who was VK's murderer. Anything but RaYa ka safar
Humsafars ran for, I guess, 106 episodes, and was abruptly shut down due to low TRP.. low by how much, I don't know. I also watched it after BP ended, and found the story fairly logical (as per ITV standards). Some parts were abrupt and it seemed they interfered with the story to fetch TRPs.
I am seeing this trend of channels infering with stories in good shows and ruining them forever. Any good show cannot stand only on one actor, and there is way to build it up beautifully involving all characters. Kuch nahi to at least research karlo, and give your viewers what they want to see. (analytics 😅) Nowdays ppl are so vocal about what they want to watch. But no, they have make it toxic by bringing wierd characters, and negative tracks. Who will want to watch a negative show when ppl have enough real-life stress to deal with? Balh2 had so much potential, good actors, good team, but they stupidly ruined their own baby. This is so sad, and happens in almost all shows, that I don't even feel like ranting anymore.
But, der aaye durust aaye. At least they shdn't ruin what they have. If Nakuul is not well and needs rest, they could have shown Ram leaving behind his home and family to some unknown place and living a secluded life (Btw, Ram had said sabkuch chorr dunga). Meanwhile Shubham dwindles away Ram's wealth, much to Nandini's chagrin. And then Priya returning from jail and setting out to find Ram worried, after knowing he left. The actor would have got his rest, and the audience would have got a fresh intruiging story. Win-win.
And, I also want RaYaHu to move out away from their toxic families, and start fresh and live happily. 😭
