Ok so I saw this article :
Rang Badalti Odhani and Yeh Ishq Haaye to end

Star One will bid adieu to the two shows in early August..

It's a known fact that Star One is headed for a complete revamp in September after which there will be a fresh lineup of shows that will be on air. But before that happens, there is a need for the existing shows to get to a logical end. And we hear that it will be Panglosean Entertainment's Yeh Ishq Haaye and Beyond Dreams' Rang Badalti Odhani that will shut shop first.

Our source says, "Rang Badalti Odhani which has had a good run and Yeh Ishq Haaye are slated to go off air in early August. This will be followed by Geet Hui Sabse Parayi. Though a preset date has not been fixed, the other two remaining shows Pyaar Kii Ye Ek Kahaani and Dhoond Legi Manzil Humein will also be closing down before the revamp.
Post revamp, Star One will be renamed as Star Desh. The revamp is expected to happen in the first week of September".

We tried calling Producers of Odhani and Yeh Ishq Haaye, Yash Patnaik and Rajesh Chaddha respectively, but they were not available.

Guess the countdown to bidding adieu to your favorite Star One shows has started!

I dont know if this is allowed to be posted here but since My love for Star One essentially was cos of DMG so here goes my two cents.

For me Star one stood for cool,new,fresh and Young- and all the shows like Remix,Hotel Kingston, them Dil Mill Gayye, MJHT,PKEYEK,RBO,Geet ect were a breath of fresh air- at least young people could watch people who dresses,spoke,felt quite a bit like them if not totally like them 😆
Now the new name is so damn putting off, the new kinda shows are obviously gonna be useless saas bahu types.What is this if not cheating the audience who saw Star One as prob the only channel for some different stuff?😕


Personally i kinda wished a lot for the comeback of Dill Mill Gayye as a sequel or something on similar lines of young professionals and the usual mix of romance , fun etc.😃

I dunno but i guess MJHT etc fans would feel the same too

So for me SO=DMG to quite an extent- i would be sad to see it change so drastically



But with this change i dunno where Star One is going to go :/


Any thoughts on the channel that gave us the show and hence this forum ?
PS:If anyone can let the channel know i think they're going nuts please do 😛

Just sharing thoughts :)

I agree completely with you Ishi.

Star One was known for its youth oriented shows, be it DMG, MJHT and others.
This revamp idea looks a total flop to me as I dont get where it will lead them to.
Yeah, StarOne remaining Star One would have served purpose of DMG's return but like you, even I doubt now :-/ The channel really needs to wake up and smell the coffee instead of taking decisions so hastily.They dont seem to be learning from their past mistakes.

You forgot to mention, its not only saas bahu, but also some gujrati shows.

They will be the producers and viewers as well.

What? Matlab like out and out Gujrati shows?😲 How can a pan-Indian channel do that
I have nothing against shows with a regional flavor- so many of them are so much fun- but to replace the existing and past peppy shows COMPLETELY with such shows is too much :/

I don't know if they're authentic types gujju shows or like khichdi or something, it was mentioned in the IF article itself, check the recent telly buzz of the revamp article.

my guess is something different

if we look at the name star desh

desh(country) consists of ppl who are young, middle aged, house wives so that shows for each and every category of people can be included

thats what i feel

and i read that article abt gujju shows it will hav youth flavour too
