allow me to paint with words
Why do any of you write stories, and how do you feel after seeing your ability to paint with words...
A story is a creation; RR at the end of the day is STs creation, because you know what, it was his creative mind that thought up the concept of RangRasiya, what's to say he will not revert and stay true to his story, he buckled under channel pressure and gave in to TRP requirements and changed the way he wanted to tell his story, it didn't work, and they're still axing RR, the fact that he tried to survive by changing the storyline should show us his level of commitment towards the success of his show...
Again, let me say this "a true creative understands content over commercialism"
Now align this to...
Commercialism = Channel = TRP
ST = Content = Story
He hit a miss with the TRP because the Channel steamrolled him, now there is no pressure; he has counting 14 days to conclude his story the way he always wanted to.
And prolonging the story is a way to go out with a bang, I would want to keep the suspense as long as I can as well wrt. audience expectations, he will have to resort to fulfilling the fans request, coz in truth, he really needs us now, rather than we need him, we can just switch to a Nayi Soch, he needs to be so lucky as to be able to broadcast on that platform and even then, he cannot aim for a notorious reputation of annihilating his own shows, that's commercial suicide, no one will have faith in him, channels wont respect him as a creative, audiences wont trust him, and actors wont want to work for him as he will be a detriment to all involved...as such, all over the world the television industry is about ratings, its either I like or I don't like, and ST cant have anyone not liking him now...
PS.
...How many of you storytellers would hate being told how to write your own story, but given a 2nd chance complete the creation of it, your very own way...
