I completely agree with u cuz Zee doesn't hv to block the episodes. I die to watch old QH! 😆



Yes - if their concern is of copy right then they need to join hands with legit sites that provide content online for a small fee. I have no issues having on less star bucks a week in order to watch QH online as and when my heart pleases!

Both Sony and Colors put their shows and star plus is even starting it up
So please Zee do the same! 😊



Yes - i am sure Zee has their reasons. However I would like to know what sort of business strategy they are implementing due to which they are blocking the content - As i mentioned that we have zee at home but neither my mom or i watch TV.

We all work and lead busy lives - therefore we prefer to watch it online at our convenient time and location. Additionally we do not have a lot of time so we are choosy about the content that we watch and watching illogical track seems to be a insult to our time. Yes i have the option of only watching the parts i like and thats what i do - however the fact that i cannot get my views heard in the form of TRP seems unfair as its all about TRP numbers at the end of the day and i totally get that as its business - BUT HEAR MY VIEWS TOO NOT JUST THOSE 1200 HOUSE HOLDS THAT MAKE UP TRP !!!

*giving u a standing ovation*...amazing post...even I don't add to the TRP audience as most of the times my mom is watching something else



Exactly my point! Time, geographical location and the mode from where we watch the content should not matter - our opinions and love for the show should be taken into account.

I understand that channel it self cannot do anything as the government, production houses and viewers all need to get their act together - thus this post. As i mentioned in previous post that i am like the old Asad when it comes to piracy issues - its black and white and i hate it when i watch QH online on some Chinese website as there is no legit option of watching it online even if i am willing to pay for it.

Rain or shine i do not miss QH so why d my opinions not matter - just because i am not a TRP aunty who is a house wife and is sitting in India and has no exposure in life, lacks common sense and never went to secondary school? I HATE the sterotype everyone has of a TRP aunty! Where is the TRP daughter and bahu and uncle here? This needs to change and a channel needs like zee needs to understand that it has been around for over a decade and they have influced the consumers in a positive way where even the aunties have evolved and expect better from the the channel!

To be honest, I am not even subscribed to Zee TV. (coutesy to a family member. Gah!) My only means of watching it is through the internet.
I really wish Zee TV would understand that half of their audience is on the net!



Yes - rather than stopping the privacy issues they are making it worse. As i said in my post that a determined viewer can always change their IP address and watch the show. Or download it illegally and make DVD copies - which is worse!!!

Thanks to skype even my grandma can use a computer so the channel needs to understand that the market it changing and adapt to the change,

TRPs as a system have truly become obsolete...in fact now its monthly TRPs not weekly due to some issues between the channels and the firm that gives these ratings..honestly if they started calculating using youtube views or something..it would be so much better..but i guess it will take time for this system to change

Yes - watching videos online is considered illegal but IMO the whole TRP system and the people involved are a lot more CORRUPT

good post!! More and more people like us want to see things Online or lets say on our consumption devices whenever we have some free time. Not everyone has TV / TIME /ZEE in their houses but we do want to see Qubool hai so we reach to the video sharing sites like youtube to watch it.

I am more puzzled with why they need to hire people and pay them to block their own revenue lolzz they can even Upload it after 24 hours but let people enjoy the amazing show they have made :)



@ bold: They block the videos as they feel we would not subscribe to the channel.

What they need to understand that the women in foreign countries mostly work and therefore do not have the time to sit at home and watch when the episode airs- they would rather watch the show at their convenience that they like at night after work, dinner and kids are in bed.

Additionally thanks to google translation a lot of people who do not understand Hindi also can watch India drama online - for example i watch Turkish drama this way!

Hey Neha...where were u yesterday girl?...we missed u...Yes - i was looking for ur comments😳 on starsinmeyes post

As for Gul's statement...there is no press like bad press😆...whatever she talks she manages to catch everyone's eye every single time...is that why she makes such statements😆
Sometimes i wonder how can someone say something so crass but at the same time come up with the idea, concept and dialogues of the skirt scene?

Maybe starinmyeyes is right - there is no press like bad press but i still wish 4lions hires a PR firm so its easier to defend them



@ bold / purple: see comments
