The PH could only if they would

Come on its not like ipk runs solely on chemistry! where is that chemistry after marriage anyway!

ASR is a classic character PH created and it could be played by anyone if not as good as barun , but it still can be played by anyone ! aarav is a big example!

Barun was not a star PH made him a star with their brillantly crafted ASR. Barun was nothing without ASR and we love ASR loads more than barun!

If a show can go through a half baked kidnap track n last a month withouyt a lead it can surely go on with a new male lead!

Take a break this is Indian TV here acting doesnt matter , the story n plotline does ! The kidnap track worked n fetched TRPs coz the PH was genuinely interested in taking the show forward they worked extra hard to compensate male leads absence .

But it is a shame that this PH can crete gems and abandon them mid way . They have never believed in taking risk bowing to actor pressures! Drashti dhami n daljeet never wore bumps , They could easily replace daljeet n the show would go on but they were insecure and same is the case with barun !

before bashing think from The TRP audience point of view they want a story not romance which will be treasured on youtube !

Dont you think vintage ASR rocked and deserves a lonegr run on indian TV ?
