Being an optimist does not mean that you fail to recognize what's working/harming the show 😉
On to the topic, RR is not working, at all.
Thankyou for not mincing words 😉
I don't know how to explain it but there is nothing in the show that will prompt me to wait eagerly for the next episode, and tune in without fail. The writers change tracks at the blink of an eye. If you see successful shows like SNS, DABH, YRKH wagera wagera (Yes, yes, I know you all are rolling your eyes, even I can't stand these shows guys, but they do rock the TRP charts) is they stuck with their original plot line, and the numbers just followed, they weren't super hits from the moment they started airing.
I completely and 100% Agree... I clealry remember when DABH which is currently the number one show on TV climbed the stairs of success slowly and steadily. I remember watching an interview of the producers Mittals where they said that the reason for the success of the show according to them is the fact that they stuck to showing what they believe that actually show something for the sake of TRP's and it's that it was their belief that something that came out from the heart would defo touch chord with the audience and the result is there for all to see. I am not saying RR is DABH, or they should follow the same foot steps no...but the basics toh sabke liye ek hi hai...which is the need of a strong storyline and working the subplots around it.
That is why I feel its imperative to stick with the vision you have. RR gives me the feeling of a headless chicken running to and fro, they change tracks without even giving it time to properly develop, characters go missing for no rhyme or reason, no explanation given for anything, storyline is so stupid it feels like writers think their audience is composed of moronic retards.
And sadly that is the truth...ST seriously should look for better writers, who can bring about the much needed change. Just having a Rajasthan Backdrop which is not even there any more and actors who can deliver really well can never hold the fortress up
Its a big royal mess right now. And if they don't pull up their socks then no matter how pretty or wonderful the leads are, or how crackling their chemistry is, the show won't last long. Content is after all, always king.
👏 👏 👏 👏 There you said it all in that one last line
