In the world of TV shows and movies, the relationship between fans and creators is a key element in the success of a show 🎬. One of the driving forces behind this success is natural human curiosity 🤔. Fans are always eager to know more about behind-the-scenes moments, especially regarding the interactions between the leads, how scenes are prepared, and what happens off-camera 🎥. However, sometimes this curiosity is intentionally ignored by the creators of the work 🚫.


Curiosity about the lives of the characters and the interactions between the actors behind the scenes is not just natural, but it’s also part of the emotional bond that forms between fans and the show 💖. When the leads share their personal connections in interviews or on social media, or when behind-the-scenes footage is released, fans feel like they’re part of the creative journey, which strengthens their connection to the show and increases their interest in it 🎤✨.


However, sometimes creators take a different approach and deliberately distance themselves from this curiosity 🛑. While this strategy might initially add an aura of mystery to the show, it can actually lead to clear negatives in the long run ⚠️.


One of the major downsides of this neglect is creating a barrier between the fans and the show 🏃‍♂️💨. When fans can't access "what’s behind the scenes" or interact personally with the leads, they begin to feel like mere outside spectators, distant from the real details of the work 😞. This distance can make them feel ignored or excluded, leading to a kind of emotional detachment from the show 💔. In the absence of updates, fans may resort to inaccurate analyses or unofficial information from unreliable sources 📉. Some may start spreading "leaks" or rumors about decisions made by the creators, and all of this can become "news," even if it’s far from the truth 📢. Fans use these fabricated stories to fill the gap left by the lack of official news, and sometimes these rumors end up becoming a part of the commonly accepted narrative among the audience 👀.


News and updates help fans feel a continuous connection to the show 🌐, whether by interacting with the latest news or by attending press events or watching videos released on social media 📱. But when these updates are missing, the level of engagement and participation among the audience decreases 😔. Fans might start losing enthusiasm for the show, leading to a decline in viewership and interaction on online platforms 📉. This drop in excitement can directly affect the popularity of the show, making it hard to maintain a loyal fanbase 🙅‍♂️.


When there is no official communication, fans begin to make assumptions about the real reasons behind the lack of news 🤷‍♂️. They might wonder if the creators don't trust the audience enough to share information, or if there are production or performance issues behind the scenes 🧐. Sometimes, this can foster a sense of distrust towards the show, reducing its credibility in the eyes of the fans 💔. Fans who feel excluded from knowing what's going on behind the scenes may become less interactive and less willing to support the show in the future 🚫.


On the other hand, when the audience is deprived of interacting with the leads or getting a glimpse of their personal lives, their imagination starts to fill in the gaps 🌪. Fans begin to fantasize about the relationships between the actors and create scenarios that may not be accurate or realistic, which can lead to rumors or misconceptions 🗣. In this case, neglecting curiosity creates a situation of speculation that can ultimately distort the image of the show and the acting 🎭.


Another downside is that this strategy can weaken the social bonds between fans 👥. Today, audiences of artistic works are not just passive watchers; they are also part of the show’s world through social media platforms 🌍, where pictures, videos, and behind-the-scenes stories are shared 📸. When these aspects are ignored, fans lose the ability to express their love and interest in tangible ways, making them feel isolated from the experience of the show 💔.


But it's not just about the audience—it also affects the creators themselves 👨‍🎨. Ignoring the curiosity of the audience may result in losing the chance to build a close relationship with them, which weakens the support base for the show 📉. When fans can't enjoy the small details they care about, like behind-the-scenes moments or the lives of the actors, their enthusiasm may wane, and their emotional connection to the show might weaken 😕.


Creators of TV shows need to realize that fans are the heart of the artistic work 💖, and maintaining continuous communication with them plays a crucial role in keeping their excitement and interest alive ⚡. News and updates, even if simple, strengthen the bond between fans and the show, making them feel part of the world they love 🌟. Instead of having fans invent their own stories and details, creators should provide them with the information they need to make them feel like they're truly part of the artistic journey 🎤🎬.


In the end, it’s important to acknowledge that the curiosity shown by fans is not a fault on their part; it is a completely natural and justified response 💡. When we are passionate followers of a show, it's only normal to want to know more about its background and details 🔍. Fans are not acting out of intrusion, but out of their love for the work and their interest in every little detail 💕. The lack of updates or news from the creators creates a void, and this void prompts fans to search for answers on their own 🌪. The absence of transparency and communication makes curiosity a logical response, as fans try to fill in the picture based on their own analysis and speculations 🤔.


But of course, I don’t mean that curiosity which sometimes crosses the line into intruding into the personal lives of the actors or creators, which is unacceptable 🚫. Excessive curiosity can turn into intrusion, negatively affecting the relationship between the audience and the actors and potentially ruining the atmosphere of the artistic work itself 🛑. Curiosity that goes beyond the proper boundaries can lead to spreading rumors or invading privacy, which should always be respected 🙏. It’s crucial to maintain boundaries and not allow this curiosity to damage relationships or interfere in personal matters that the audience has no place in 💔.


Therefore, instead of condemning curiosity, we should understand that it is a natural reaction to the absence of information, and it’s important for this curiosity to be managed with care and wisdom 🌱.

I do understand fans want to see abrar afiya and others off screen videos

but i do not like too much bts

because it reveals too much story

that makes audience not watch on tv

because if you show story important scenes

audience lose interest to watch episodes

ex uday veer and mom story

i was so curious iinitially but they revealed too much already

now i am not so bothered about UV and mom milan scenes anymore

because too much scenes and story revealed before only in social media youtube bts on location etc

instead show the off screeen fun videos like yeh hai chahtein with cast and leads do not reveal next scenes etc

Do not show story shooting and scenes as curiosity to watch dies in viewers

This is what I’m talking about – showing behind-the-scenes moments of the heroes, not just scenes from the story. When the audience gets attached to a show, they start to care about the details, feel curious about the filming atmosphere, and wonder what it was like. The behind-the-scenes chemistry and interactions between the actors off-camera increase the audience’s engagement with their on-screen chemistry. Like you said, fans loved the behind-the-scenes moments of Abrar and Sarjun, their jokes, and how well they got along, which reflected in their performances on camera. 🎬✨

You are forgetting the most important thing - we are not the target audience in ITV. It's the on-ground audience which watches shows. The connection that BTS is needed for attachment to show is totally incorrect for the actual audience. Do you think the offline audience opens their phone to watch BTS ?

you are right and wrong too

i know 50 year olds plus in small town and villages nowadays watching youtube and TV serials on hot star sony liv zee5

they may not watch bts but they do watch serials on youtube and apps even 50 or 60 plus year olds

yes may be 70 or 80 or 90 year olds may not do that

but honestly how many 70 plus are in india hardly 10-15 crores rest 125 crores still watch on youtube or apps and are target audience of neem neem show if they watch hindi serials

also you must realize maharasthra watches more marathi serial not hindi, tamil nadu watches tamil andhra telengana watch telegu serials karantaka kannada serials and kerala malyalam shows UP bihar watch bhojpuri serials not hindi shows punjab watches punjabi serials orissa watches oriya bengal watches west bengal assam watches assamese shows on ITV not hindi serials

So 70% india is not target audience of hindi Tv only and only 40 crore of 140 crore are target audience of hindi serials rest 90 crore have their own state language serials on ITV to watch and do not bother to watch any hindi serial

Bollywood movies is different that south west north east and north india watches irrespective of having regional movies if good movie comes that is target audience is like 80 crore for bollywood movies

but ITV serials are different most ppl in south and west india and north east watch regional shows not hindi serials on ITV

so target audience reduces drastically to 40 crore for hindi ITV shows

Out of this 40 crore hindi audience 20 crore may not have TV at home or cable only at home as poor ppl or they have kids studying for exams removed cable etc

I know many IT professionals in mumbai bangalore hyderbad etc have no tv or cable tv at home as they have moving jobs every 3 to 5 years they move another city or travel to outside country often so they never buy cable tv or TV at al in home they just watch ITV on mobiles and this no is huge and increasing

10 lakh 10th std and 12th std board exam kids homes in a state too will not have cable because tostop distraction to kids easily all over india another 2 crore kids house holds have no cable every year for kids to study in exams

Like this easily 50% audience of hindi shows have no TV at home or cable and watch only on mobile apps or youtube

That is reason youtub serial episodes like kundali bhagya kumkum or jodha akbar have 30 lakh views some even 50 lakh as most are watching on youtube the serial
