They initially wanted to have Karan's character be a permanent fixture on Bidaai and last through the end of Bidaai. Then, SP came out with their "Risha Wohi, Soch Nayi" thing...and they thought up this plot for Bidaai and told RS, who agreed to it...thinking it would give his show a second life and a fresh start...
In my opinion- Sadhna's death was part of the script, and so was the leap. Sara was miffed...understandably...and she probably expected some kind of defense on RS's part but he didn't lift a finger...and Kinshuk was probably just shocked by the rapid changes on set and the leap...so he probably realized there was no one who could stop this from happening...and he decided that it was time to say goodbye...and so they hastily added Apurva and killed Ranvir in a comical fashion.
I think what RS did wrong was that...I feel...and I could be wrong...he didn't try to stop the leap or protest the extremeness of killing Sadhna...whom the story basically revolves around...along with Ragini...this probably offended Sara...so she must have opened her mouth and now RS takes cheap shots at her and Sadhna fans for wanted her back...Kinshuk has a similar story...
You could be right. Sara seemed very upset at SPA. Angad and Parul never bothered to thank RS. And I am sure that SP came up with the leap. There was an article about how only the top people of SP and DKP were involved with the leap and nobody else had any clue about it. There were also articles about how Sara and RS had a falling out--it prolly was true and it was about this issue. I think they intended for Sadhna to come back, but Sara and RS's falling out meant that Sadhna could not come back..

He did say that everything happened too fast for him to even prepare for it..He probably saw that another leap could very well happen and he would be playing dad at 24 to girls his age or a couple years younger. And deciding he didn't want to do that, he quit. But there's more to his story too..
However, RS + his writers are solely responsible for the way they portrayed the leap and the way Sadhna/Ranvir died. It doesn't help that on fb, RS keeps taking potshots at Kinshuk/Sara/ and fans.
Also it's clear from the way RS talks that he values his writers far more than he does his actors. Actors are the face of the show. We have seen plenty of shows with bad storylines working because of the actors in it, but some good storyline don't get their appreciation because of the actors. I am not saying that actors are above evryone else. It is a combined effort! If writers create the story, then actors bring life to it!
