There were rumors that bhavika didn’t want to learn the sign language and didn’t want the fl to stay mute for so long. So I guess she and makers/channel couldn’t come in agreement. As for the show, it will be a hit. It flopping wouldn’t be fair to Shakti. Not his fault that she’s replaced. Not fair to fans who have been waiting for his come back for years. I am sad though as I really wanted Bhavika. I liked her acting and loved her chemistry with Shakti. Now I just hope they get a great fl with sane fans opposite him

Here is my honest take...

If there is even 10% truth to the rumor that Bhavika refused to do the needful for the role, then she most certainly deserves to be kicked out - there's no two way about it. Actors should recognize that it's the story that drives everything, not any one person's fame or follower.

Coming to the PH, as I already replied, irrespective of how talented someone is, sometimes not everyone fits every role. So, if the makers felt something was off - again that's a justified choice.

My anger is directed to the Channel only considering what they said in this article. Earlier also I have seen how makers wanted a particular story but due to Channel's interference it became trash. So, no, I have no sympathy over there. If they really went beyond the maker's choice, their show needs to be flop, PERIOD.

As far as Shakti is concerned, I have no feeling attached with him as an actor. And I'm sure his fans will cherish his comeback irrespective of the show's ultimate fate.

I kind of anticipated this.

They’ll not be off airing the show because they don’t have anything substantial to replace it with. When MounRagam comes on air, they’ll probably change slots. Slowly after that they’ll off air if it’s still not getting TRPs.

They should just make Jiohotstar available in other countries. I don’t understand why they have restricted it. Hulu sucks. They have removed all old Indian shows. There’s nothing there except for new episodes of current shows which they are also late to upload most of the times

You have VPN right ? You can watch many old shows. They have uploaded all the episodes in Star Plus YT page.

I saw IB, Naamkarann, IPK, IPK2 and Khichdi. Which show do you need ?

I wanted to watch Kyunki’s episodes everyday in peace as Hulu is late most of the times. They have still not uploaded the latest episode. I also wanted to watch KZK, YHM and few others

Hulu is trash. They have been uploading episodes late since years so I’m aware. There’s no other option except to use an Indian number or a virtual number.

Check these links out. I presume you are from the US. You don’t need a VPN but just in case if you are unable to view the videos, use your VPN.

YHM

Kahin toh hoga.

I assumed you were referring to KZK Season 1. Star hasn’t uploaded them. They are still in JioHotstar. :(

Honestly, I don't think so.

People need to get out of their comfort zone and experiment new things if they want to succeed.

Plus, I have seen her in Maddam Sir where pretty much every actor had to go enact different roles as undercover cops.

So I think she would have nailed it.

Honestly, if it had come from the PH itself, I would accept it. Because no matter how good they are, not every actor suits every role.

But when the Channel intervenes, I find it fishy.

Well, she'll get something else and I hope that's better for her. 🤗

Now another show fell into my curse list that I would want to fail sincerely. 🤪

Sorry to butt in, but just wanted to say that channels intervening before the show goes on air to change both or one of the leads by watching mock footage is a pretty normal thing and done for long.

Not many people know this but Cezanne Khan of KZK fame was the first choice for Raman of YHM and once Divyanka and Ruhanika were cast as well as some other key cast members they did a mock shoot for a couple of episodes. The channel felt he was a misfit for the role and had Ekta recast Raman and that’s when she called Karan Patel. The channel felt a man as bitter as Raman was supposed to be had to look and sound a certain way, and they felt Cezanne lacked in some ways. They were right and we know YHM went onto become one of Balaji’s longest running and successful shows. So not all intervention is bad.

It’s not akin to the practice that Netflix and other OTT giants and producers are doing in the West. If you ever followed The Good Place you may know of the actress Jameela Jamil who played Tahani on the show. She gave an interview to someone for a media outlet, I can’t remember whom, and she said that the writers were given instructions to include scenes where the characters had to talk about the happenings of the show and everything they could as many times as possible and include as many descriptions as possible not for visually impaired or challenged viewers, but viewers who would be glued to their phones or doing chores with the show playing in the background.

That’s why you have such scenes happening a lot in so many shows that are direct to OTT or movies as well. They’re being asked to dumb down as they feel attention span has reduced significantly among the audience. Not that they wanna make content so gripping that it demands attention, they’re moulding themselves to accommodate the audience being hooked on social media or games or whatever chores.

So rather an intervention that leads to casting change as it feels integral to the show for whatever reasons, than the intentional dumbing down of content.
