It's rearguard action time at Star Plus. Edged out after a nine-year life at the top, Star Plus is making moves to shed off the "saas-bahu" image that stuck on to the channel.
Was that the primary reason to do away with Balaji's saas-bahu sagas?
It's nothing to do away with. We thought that we needed fresher and younger shows coming in because a show that has run for nine years obviously needs to be refreshed. I don't think in any part of the world a show can continue for so long. The K-series had a good run and did brilliantly for the channel, but then changes were prevalent and we responded to them.
Star Plus, anyway, still continues to source a few shows like Tujh Sang… and Kis Des Mein Hai Mera Dil from Balaji and they are still a part of the producers list who work with us.
