want tht bidaai should b out of top 100 shows . & i m sure kinshuk jate jate yeh karke jayega becoz wid his death bidaai jo top 1 par hai uske samne do zero lagne mein der nahi lagegi . in ct's ne jo kinshuk ke saath aur uske die hard fans ke sath kiya hai na they hav 2 pay for it .

The numbers and fortunes change everyday.Its still managing to be in Top 10.Only time will tell.

yesss thats wat i wanteddddd...!!!! if star plus owners are behind all the destructions in bidaai then its the best news for me...!!! they deserve this....!!!!

let them njoy the success 4 now coz i doubt if bidaai can retain the no 1 spot . letz see where bidaai lands after ranvir is shown dead . i bet no loyal viewer of bidaai will accept anmol and ragini but i am going 2 miss parul very badly coz i was badly addicted 2 ragvir . 😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭just want back kinshuk at any cost .but definitely sp deserves it for taking fans for granted 😡 😡😡😡

star plus GEC might have slipped, but Bidaai is still shining at No 1...

SP should be thankful for that

At the time being nothing is going on same position for so long on TV..........
