Sumeet Mittal is hopeful of Punar Vivah increasing its TRP!

The concept of Zee TV's Punar Vivahhelmed by Shashi-Sumeet Mittal Productions Pvt Ltd is quite a good one and with popular faces like Gurmeet Choudharyplaying Yash and Kratika Sengar as Aarti, it has secured a place in the hearts of all.

But blame it on the slow pace, the show is rated around 2.3 TVR. However, Sumeet Mittal is not disappointed and feels that the wedding track of Yash and Aarti will bring in a change. Post marriage the show will pick up pace and it will bag more numbers. He said, "The real strength of Punar Vivah i.e. the interpersonal relationship between the couple will only start now once the remarriage takes place. The first month was used up to show the build up to the marriage (with all its resultant issues) and establish all the various characters. We are very confident that the numbers will now rise once the wedding is shown. Such a similar late spike had also taken place with our other hit Star Plus show Diya Aur Baati Hum as well".

When asked about Gurmeet's characterization which many critics felt wasn't impressive initially, he added, "This was only expected as his Geet (Star One) lover boy image was very popular, hence it will take some time for the same to be erased from public conscious, which is now slowly beginning to happen."

Well, we have faith in Gurmeet and the show. Hope it will rule the charts!
