Blaming a new character who barely gets any screentime for drop in ratings is height of idiocy. 🤪
The reason why it dropped is so obvious. What did those episodes have? More of patralekha acting like victim, more of spineless and selfish virat who like his pyaar cheez cannot think past himself and see where he has been going wrong. More of sai being mahaan, losing to pakhi and giving up her son. And more of the brainwashed son's love for his fake mother.
Audience can tell there is no real movement or progression in story and that sai is still losing and pakhi is still winning.
