I think what we have to remember is that Jenny's online fan following increased after DMG by a lot! It was a cult youth show but she was also the third Riddhima which meant a lot of backlash came her way too. I think the only two actresses which have a higher fan following are DD and Sanaya. That is largely due to their portrayals of Geet and Khushi which were landmark love stories on television. Now who is to say Kumud won't become as big or even bigger than those two characters? Its been a month only and Kumud will have to go through a lot. Once a jodi becomes a craze so do the actors.

Though I would also like to say that there are some very bitter fans out there who probably see the potential in Kumud and the show in general to truly become 'epic' that they are resenting that SLB chose Jen and no-one else :) That's all it is.

It did but after some time it went static. again that's not a true measure of her admirers but yes, it's sad that she faces a setback cause of one thing or the other. I am hopeful 'Kumud' will escalate her to new heights.
Like I said sth triggered this reaction and I had to make this post for my peace of mind

I see an interesting discussion taking place here about the popularity of tv celebrities, and would like to cut in if that's okay.
The way I see it is that online fan following is not an appropriate measure of a tv celebs popularity. All that really shows us is how many young girls(in most cases) like a particular celeb. Just take india forums as an example, it is by no means a reliable measure of popularity in relation to the mass; the trp audience. The most popular trp shows have forums which are deserted, but those shows are watched by greater numbers, than shows that appeal more to the younger audience. It's just that if a show becomes popular with the youth audience, they just assume its the biggest thing ever. Something which most members of IF are guilty of. Just think about it, even the most active forums of IF most likely have about a few hundred active members. That is an insignificant amount, compared to the trp audience. I could even go as far as saying if everyone on IF stopped watching their respective shows; it would make literally no difference to viewership figures.
I just wanted to share my thoughts on this matter, and hope it does not cause anyone any offence.

None taken.
No, it isn't a true measure by any means. At the same time, I wouldn't undermine the on-line fan base, internet's a broad medium so more power to them.
I agree about top shows having less active members. That doesn't take away anything from the shows' popularity. My issue isn't popularity per se. IF is a small sphere yet the only sphere accessible to me and there are reasons enough to tick me off on occasions. This post is merely my effort to counter them in this very sphere.

I hope it's not true. :( I do see quite a number of her fans on I-F. They may not be very vocal about their love for her but I'm sure there are a lot of fans. I've always loved her work and appreciate every bit of hard work she's put all these year. I idolize her to some point. She's just so perfect in every way. :) And if what you're saying is true then Kumud will definitely increase her popularity. Just wait for a few months. Because I remember Sanaya started out the same way. Her fans were in minority when she was doing MJHT but Khushi made her a big star. So I have faith that Jenny's popularity will increase.

Jenny has a huge fan-following but yes they aren't among ones who go to any extent to make their fav actor/actress win every XYZ poll!! Jenny is someone who is loved in all parts of the world...how many actresses have we heard of being flooded with marriage proposals by the guys from all over the country? she is loved by males, females, kids, adults, from all age groups. Even those who don't watch any serials now recognize her as cute Sneha from KZK (I have met quite a few of them)...I am not an Indian but I know quite a lot of my friends are big fans of Jenny...but you are correct, if we talk about IF, her fans fall in the minority, at least if we are talking about crazy fans...but if you go to other sites like FB, her admirers' list is way too long...she is one of the few actresses who has so many fan pages and all have so many likes, and there are some sites I have seen wherein among BW actresses, Jenny is the only TV actress included or has a fan club!! but what makes me so proud is not only her fans love her but a lot of industry people also absolutely love her!!

^^ You're like a Jennifer wikipedia - I like you for that :D
Good to know that she has a great standing in other sites. I rarely visit them except the fb fanclub. Yesterday like I said something ticked me off and I vented it out, I guess you know exactly what that sth is. Today is a good day with the makaepisode in all it's glory so I'll rest the case.
Me too. Where are you from ? if you don't mind me asking
