Most of the viewers would agree that MKAP is no longer the same old show that captivated the audience. The show seems to hv lost its magic. Earlious some overzealous fans used to link the falling rank with lack of focus on leads but with the current overexposure of kriya, this argument seems just a lame excuse. In my opinion too much emphasis on Kriya without any novelty in developing their relationship makes the show very predictable and boring. CVs had introduced some very interesting characters including menka and tanmay but they were perhaps misled by too many negative opinions on places like MKAP forum. Now that the show is losing in TRP race, CVs should stick to their old strategy of giving more space to side characters like Meera, Menka & Tanmay. After all it is TRP that can keep the show on.
