What I find really interesting about IM is that how little conversation it generates despite being such a mega blockbuster. In terms of YT views, IM generates similar views as Tere Bin used to generate when it was on air. In terms of TRP, IM TRPs from week-to-week are higher than Tere Bin TRPs.

Yet audience engagement (beyond views) seems much less.

Like its comment to views ratio on YT is half of that of a bad show (with lower TRPs and YT views) like Mein.

On X, if I search for #IshqMurshid tag, the # of posts in the 48 hours following episode release would be significantly low compared to when Tere Bin was on air. In fact, there are more posts on Mein than on IM on X which I found baffling. Like where are the fan theories, posts discussing character relations, twitter spaces discussing the show, etc.

Also, in Tere Bin time, X was flooded with fan edits and vms but the IM fan edits or vms I see are barely a fraction of the # I saw when Tere Bin was on air. Even though the IM couple is being hailed for their chemistry, romantic moments, and then there is the killer OST.

What am I missing guys. Is there more content on IG or TikTok so I am just looking the wrong platforms? For a show as massive of a hit as IM (like I said it is at par with TB now in terms of popularity and may well exceed it in future weeks), why is there so little chatter about it?

Dure has quite less fans I guess. Also I have seen in insta that very few of Dure's fan pages are hyping up the couple, may be 2-3. And even if it happens then there will be barrage of comments saying she looks better with Danish.

Bilal's fan pages very few may be the top ones are hyping and making edits. So overall engagement is low.

Also, I don't see any dedicated couple fanpages unlike Yumna-Bilal, Yumna-Wahaj or Sahad.

Mannat Murad is giving tough competition to Mein in views and trp both. I am surprised because Mannat Murad has not big stars like Mein. I think that viral slap scene made it popular in audience now. It was not that popular before. In term of content both shows are average but Mein has intriguing factor which makes it more interesting 🙌

Geo dramas again getting good trp for all its dramas. Khumar getting high views and rating. Let's see how much popularity New drama "Khai " will get since it doesn't have strong competition. Sukoon is a biggest disappointment 👎

No offence to their fans but i find both of them so pretentious and cringe. Sara used o be my favorite but after marriage my perception changed about her . Such a show off couple 😣

Sirf Tum was much more popular than fairytale views and trp wise but it didn't have as much hype on sm. I think shows develop hyper fandoms when the chemistry between the lead couple is well liked.

I know people are appreciating the chemistry between Durre and Bilal but maybe not to the extend of TB or FT leads.

PS: I am waiting for the show to finish before binge watching it. I only watched the first episode. So cannot comment on the chemistry aspect myself

I don't know why good looking and intelligent guys like murtasim and shahmeer fall in love with dumb girls like meerab and shibra

i don't think Murtasim's IQ was in double digits..

I keep seeing tweets like he is in love with her n have hots for her or how if he weren't married these two would have been openly crazy for each other

what if Hamza's downturned moustache was upside down, maybe he won't look so bechara? maybe he should put some gel and curl it upwards..
