Okay if it's that necessary I can live with negative Ragini for a bit longer - she has to turn positive one day or another but if Swara and Sanskaar happens then I know that may not be reversible so forget it.

What the hell were cvs thinking ...all the couples that i ship for are not happening ...M so pissed at the cvs 😡😡😡😡😡

Whether Ragini will be happy or not but the show actually gave a message that by doing wrong things u do get wat u want after all Ragini did got wat she wants she got married to Lakshya

Krystal, I know. :(
But when they show sensible stuff or they show legal consequences for legal offences, then the track, serial, PH and channel all get a loss.
The more channels there are, the better careers for real people, but more regressive and unrealistic fictional stuff in serials.
Not many people (and definitely not millions) are likely to accurately remember a serial's list of tracks correctly a few years after it's over, but they do remember whether it was watched or not.
The critically acclaimed ones which flop financially, sometimes the actors themselves have the embarrassment during interviews that the reporters don't even know of those and refer to a success from before as the actor's previous stint.
So actors, crew everyone who want to do creative realistic admirable stuff, they have the option of doing theatre as and when they can afford it.
And our serials - even at their most appallingly regressive - are far better than an assorted variety of film (mainstream and otherwise) which actually seem to inspire people into unfortunate conduct.
Serials mostly just inspire copycat behaviour about ladies saris, salwar-kameezes, bindis and sindoor-style.

Serials, PHs and channels have all tried to do progressive stuff despite the trackrecord of losses.
Entire channels got closed. It's their livelihood, and that does matter at least a bit, especially if what they are being asked to show has proven to get not enough millions of viewers.

And inspiring crime is *not* the case, except in the bizarre eccentric stuff like people who do something bizarre because it's in a comic or something.
Serials tracks fictional conduct has to reflect what most of the millions of mass-audience consider acceptable (legal or not), or the track and/or serial closes with loss through not enough millions of viewers watching in India at primetime on TV.
So it's not that the serials tell people how to behave, but rather that the channels face the prospect of losing viewership if they try to forcefeed what most millions of the viewers dislike or disapprove.
It's that showcasing correct ideas seems to end up showcasing loss-making serials getting closed. :(

Better to watch every good educational show - there are some - on TV and hope and wait for those to get good viewership. Because when they start to get good viewership, serials will race to show only progressive stuff. :)

It's wrong to completely put all the blame on serials for someone else's wrongdoings. If you have the right education and know what's wrong and what's right then nothing like this will change your mind. Serials are made for entertainment.. not everyone is going to run behind the show-makers for showing stuff like this, especially when it has been a trend for years not only on Indian shows but US shows, as well. If the 'youngsters' can't differ from right or wrong, then they should be educated properly by the people in their lives rather than using a saas-bahu show as a influence for knowledge.

What we can do is not watch this show. !!! Bring TRP down tgat show goes off air!! We need to campaign for that but. We might be ants but rember ants can bring an elephant also on its knees..

If the TRP (and the BARC equivalent) rose upwards to 3+ while the lead pairing was established and together and stayed in the 3+ TRP range for several weeks during that phase, then any attempt to change that proven pairing can be campaigned against.

But if not, then the campaigning can be heeded or ignored.

The massive viewership a channel knows can suffice in itself for the success of its serials is mostly offline - the people who never bother to come online to talk of a serial, they just switch the channel if they dislike or are not interested. And that is a majority or mostly conservative sensibilities.

The poorest viewership for a main entertainment channel (Hindi serials) is in millions.
So even a million viewers may be considered poor viewership.

The channels which cater to youth-audience either manage on a very small budget, or close down with a loss.
The mass-viewership is usually able to make a series successful without any fandoms.
But fandoms have a series in the 3+ TRP only if the tracks and the pairing are mass-acceptable.

So basically, a channel listens to fans either if majority-audience is saying the same thing, or if the viewership is inadequate and likely to remain inadequate regardless of any change or lack of change.

If fans ask for something and majority-audience doesn't, either it won't happen, or the track and/or serial would have to close.

Also, if majority-audience is disinterested (i.e. not enough millions of people watching in India at primetime on TV), then also track or serial would close.

It's basically about how many millions of people we have who are watching the serial in India at primetime on TV.
Not enough millions is a worry. More millions is better.

And the total available viewership-base is massive enough that at least two serials - even three serials - can have 3+ TRP (and the BARC equivalent) simultaneously.
So a primetime serial is expected to get that much TRP, even if one or two other serials in that same timeslot are getting 3+ TRP.

Currently, BARC is the official rating, and TRP is used unofficially. But BARC is intended to be more considerate of the rural viewership as well.

Leela you are the best!!
