Tumhari Disha to go off air
This month has seen major unexpected changes in TV serials—be it with the cast or the fate of the show itself. Recently, Twinkle Beauty Parlour saw a mass sacking of the actors. And now it's the turn of Zee's Tumhari Disha to go off air.
"Tumhari Disha will end on August 14. It will complete 450 episodes by then," says Rupali Guha, producer of the show. The news comes as a surprise because the story recently took a a leap of 25 years.
"It was the channel's call. The TRPs of Tumhari Disha were not as great, post-leap. So they decided to wind up the serial. Nevertheless, I am glad that Tumhari Disha will complete 450 episodes, a long time for a serial,"says Guha.
But wasn't the real reason for the dip in TRPs the absence of its earlier protagonist Chavi Mittal? "The TRPs started to fall before Chavi's exit. So her quitting Tumhari Disha has got nothing to do with the serial going off air," says Guha.
The serial will end with the characters DK (played by Ashish Nayyar) and Kaamna (Poonam Joshi) finally bonding with each other.
This news could hit Poonam Joshi the hardest as it was her first lead role. Moreover, after Poonam took up Tumhari Disha, Balaji Telefilms served a legal notice to the actress for failing to give them enough notice about joining another serial. "I am still acting in Kahiin To Hoga. Nothing can be done if the channel decides to wind up the show. I am looking at the positive aspects of life," says Poonam.
