Originally posted by Yash141Mujhe sirf ye bataani hai.. To the CVs of upcoming shows in SP. Galati se bi mat kehna ki Aapka show ek promising and unique show hai.. If it turns out to be that much PROMISING & UNIQUE u will loose the 9pm(so called prime time) slot..shifted to another not so prime time slot or will be axed abruptly. So if u wnt your show to go on for like 5-6 yrs pls make sure to add the below mentioned extremely important ingredients..
1. An artful, envious, cruel Saas n an innocent/courageous bahu or vice versa
2. The arrogant, rich business tycoon n a middle class, proud girl ka love story (or vice versa)
3. There has to be hawaa or rain everywhere the girl goes, for sure..
4. Main lead has to cry like everyday, once is the minimum limit.
5. Memory loss is very crucial.
6. If a person dies in your show he/she must return alive. Plastic surgery would be a bonus.
7. Never let the main leads speak their heart out. Direct and honest expressing of feelings of the characters is never regarded good.
8. Bad people should always remain bad. Taking revenge, hatred must be like the theme.U can make them good when the story ends.
9. Be sure to keep the female character younger than the male lead ***
10. The female characters should be in full makeup all the day with heavy jewellery and an exquisite wardrobe. Make sure that they sleep with their jewellery n makeup too.
More than anything else never let anyone(even your fans) say that the story is different or unique.. That would be like a deathsentence to your show.
Good Luck!

If u are mailing the above to SP people pls add my name also to it.
Its a beautifully written piece. Shows with a difference are just not accepted on Indian TV. Audience ki matti maari gayi hai. they want the same old rona-dhona and negative character tracks/shows.
What upsets me the most is how will they end Gulaal in such a hurry. It will be so very rushed. At least they could have given it a different time-slot. I hate SP
