THIS IS AN INTERVIEW I, HAD WITH MS.SANAYA AND MR.RAJAN AT THE HOTEL LOBBY BEFORE THE FESTIVAL AT 12 PM.I APOLOGIZE FOR THE SOUND QUALITY, BEACUSE OF A WATER FALL IN THE BACKGROUND , THERE IS DISTURBANCE, ALSO I USED AN IPAD, SO THE QUALITY IS NOT GOOD. BUT IM AN AMATEUR AT THIS, BUT I WAS GLAD I GOT TO SPEND TIME WITH HER AND RAJAN. THEY WERE BOTH VERY ACCOMODATING AND I FEEL LIKE I KNOW MR.RAJAN ALREADY..
I TOLD RAJAN THAT I HAVE SAVED HIS REPUTATION A LITTLE, BY SAYING THAT HE IS NICER IN PERSON AND SANAYA ASKED ME WHY, I SAID BECAUSE EVERYONE BLAMES HIM FOR THE SHOW SHUTDOWN, SO SHE SAID IT WAS NOT HIM, IT WAS NOT BARUN, IT WAS EVERYTHING TOGETHER RESPONSIBLE FOR IT. RAJAN SAID NOW MAYBE I MAY NOT GET TWEETS , AND LAUGHED.
PL DONT BASH ME FOR THAT, IT IS JUST MY OPINION.
I AM NOT SURE ABOUT THE MEMBERS ON THE FORUM, SO I GAVE A BALLPARK NUMBER TO SANAYA.. SO DONT HOLD ME AGAINST THAT..
I HOPE YOU ARE NOT TOO DISAPPONTED WITH THE QUALITY... SINCE I HAD NOT EVEN DREAMT I WOULD BE SPENDING TIME WITH HER THIS WAY.. IT FEELS SURREAL.
WRITTEN UPDATE MAY BE MISSING SOME LINES FROM THE INTERVIEW, PLEASE LISTEN TO IT, I APOLOGIZE FOR THE SOUND QUALITY, HAD NO IDEA IT WAS THE WATER IN THE BACKGROUND.
THIS IS FOR ALL MY BASHER BUDDIES ON THE DORIS... WE ROCK...
Here is the LINK TO THE VIDEO:
WRITTEN UPDATE:
P: It's the biggest forum but it's filled up with global viewers. We're like 300,000 people so its not small. All my friends want to know if there's any chance you're going to be working with Viraf.
S: No no no no. The show is over there's no point in talking-
P: No no not IPK a new show.
S: No no.
P: Because we already have fanclub on the forum now for Viraf
S: Yeah?
P: Yes. And Rajan said you have some plans for January so they want to know how soon you're gonna be working again
S: I really don't want to talk about it because everything is still in the pipeline. So there's no point in talking "it may happen it may not happen" so when I do come, yall will see me.
P: They want to tell you that they love you so much and this is coming from you won't believe how many messages I got since yesterday. And people really love you. From their hearts. And they want you to do romantic comedies not- saas bahu shows.
S: No no, I don't think I'm going to do any saas bahu serials anymore. I don't know about romantic comedies but-
P: You know we call you the Lucille Ball of Indian TV because you're good in comedy. You have a good comic timing , only one i remeberis Sridevi who hada good comic timing, not many actress are good in comedy.You have that and not many actors have that. So they wanted me to tell you that and they love your previous serials also. I have not seen them so. Also,
P: Rajan they really want to know if the forum is what caused the show to shut down.
R: No, we take a lot of things into consideration. It's not just one thing and we'd be stupid if we didn't take all our people into consideration. Finally it's about what the company wants.
P: Okay because I know that India Forum has a lot of global viewers because I know all the shows from India depend on the TRP not on global viewers online but I think this is the only which kind of matters
R: No India Forum is wrong because around the world we do have monitors and we have TRPs as well. One of the biggest is the UK and UK runs from TRP.
P: Yeah because I know the US doesn't.
R: Yeah the US doesn't.
P: Ok so you can't predict how long until another show.
S: Yeah.
P:people cant let go, since the show got abrupt ending
S: Yeah, it was an abrupt ending and I'm hoping something better will come along. I hope people will keep watching no matter what.
P: Yeah they will. And they also want to know what was the best thing about the show.
S: People keep asking me what is the best thing about the show and I have already said the unit. It is not about the story or how big the show went none of that. I've never had such an amazing cast and crew. Our production was like family. A lot of people says this but no one knows what our show was like. It was just different. When Iss Pyaar Ko started we didn't have a good TRP and we always say that everyone was so positive on set that we say that that's the reason why the show went the way it went. I'm telling you that was the best part of the show.
P: I'll tell you because IPK was my first Indian show in 20 years and that hooked me so you can imagine the younger generation. I'm pretty old but that generation didn't want to let it go. So I want to clear it for the forum because there is a warzone there going on and on the website they're still calling to get the show back. So would you tell them that it's not gonna happen.
S: Can I just say something? I just wanna say something. With due respect to everyone it's over. Whatever the reason it was, there's not point to find out what the reason was. You know whether it was the fans the show Barun. There's no point glamorizing why the show shut down. Whatever I say or Rajan says its not going to affect what the people have to say. Everyone has their opinion and they're gonna follow that. It's a matter of time so even if I scream out and say something which I've been saying over the past few months, it's not gonna make a difference. There are people who are gonna like it and there are people who are gonna hate it. So whether Rajan says it or I say it it's not gonna make a difference. It's time. When people see what's happening they'll realize.
P: That's why we're the most hated and popular because we're called the bashers because we moved on.
S: Yeah I mean good.
P: And um they also wanted me to tell you that you are very very dedicated and we saw that. You never slacked. It was really bad sometimes the costumes were really bad and I don't know how many petitions we've had for you. But it never changed lol. Um so they want to tell you that they really like that. They really really love you and actually they've been talking to me even now since 2 3 am. And theyre waiting for me to update them because I was gonna meet you. So thank you so much. Can you give a shoutout to the bashers.
R: We're not gonna give a shoutout to bashers but to the watchers. We'll give one to everyone.
S: Hello everyone who is watching this. Thank you for watch IPK. Thank you for supporting it but it's now over so let's move on and hopefully I'll come in something better.
P: Thank you so much for your time. Can we take a few pictures?
S: Yeah! Sure.
I ASKED HER IF I CAN HUG FRO MY FRIEND ARTI, SHE SAID WHY NOT, THEN I HUGGED HER AND ONCE AGAIN THANKED THEM FOR THE TIME THEY HAD GIVEN ME.
MY FIRST EVER INTERVIEW AND HOPE I DID NOT DISAPPOINT YOU GUYS.
