If a few hundred or a few thousand SM accounts is all it took to get 15+ TRPsand 20M+ views on YT every week so certain other projects (who shalt not be named) will be surefire blockbusters by now.
Deewangi, KAM did not have big FDs and when they returned to screens after several years, neutral audiences watched them giving it billions of views, despite the poor quality.
Kaddu does not need to give TB fandom alive by any tactics because when TB2 comes back, neutral mass audiences will at the very least check it out of curiosity.
Also how come when Parizad 2 was announced in Jul 2022 but there was no update until May 2024, that wasn't a tactic by Momina Bhabhi at Hum to keep Parizad hype alive?
I strongly think Kaddu would have rushed to shoot TB2 earlier this year with a half-baked script but the actors haven't signed off on the script until further revisions. See the facts. Wahaj has signed no other project. He shot a good spell of SMD in 2023 and has literally been idling in Lahore 70% of the time in 2024. Siraj too was idling all this year after finishing Sukoon until Kaddu gave him that Mehwish project now. This supports my theory that these people were expecting to shoot TB2 earlier in the year and had cleared their calendars accordingly. But they cannot wait endlessly for the script to be finalized job and had to find other projects to do.
