Today was a difficult phase for star plus to reveal the plan which was decided after lot of things in recent days .For the first time a show was called off. Earlier there were demands to retain a show, but for first time a demand was made to shut down the show.
One way iam happy that i dont have to see sanaya/Khushi in someone arm's except Arnav.
But but what a sad demise of the NO. 1 SHOW . i dont know its a very situation.
Barun sobti is the most luckiest actor on planet to get love of fans madly. i hope the Odd 200 workers dont cherish ill feelings for the abrupt closure. Barun himself will be upset for sure that due to him the the set in kandivali is being closed soon.
<font size="3">Some reality check</font>
SP has closed down IPK is the last wish fulfillment the channel has done for barun fans.This is it. whatever i researched , the channel doesnt wanna take chances again, If they have to try a love story it may be with a fresh new pair . ..and Yes they might try SARUN, but not soon after this bitter experience. The channel is upset that a show has to be closed down as an actor walked out due to his own reasons. Barun might get busy wit MAMR, promotions, . I feel afraid of sanya's career . i hope sanaya's pairing with some other hero in new show ahead doesnt invite trouble. Producers will be afraid of approaching sanya after this IPKKND drama. in fear of being bashed to cast sanaya with some other hero.
No producer is that determined to try SARUN..take my word. NO PH wants to get a treatment like 4 lions got. . I can just see reality shows for them ahead. Moreover except BALAJI AND 4 Lions NO other PH in the Tv industry has attempted Love stories centred around leads. Balaji faced a backlash for casting Harshad chopra with anupriya kapoor in the love story ..Tere liye. Within 9 months the show was called off. Balaji came with Kitni mohabbat hai season 2 which is co written by VED RAJ (an old balaji loyalist) but again the show was pulled down.
All other PH have played safe with family drama and issue based shows. Even Rajan shahi, (yeh rishta), Rashmi sharma( saathiya), sumeet mittal( diya bati n hum) are all into shows which have side characters like maaji, bhaiyaa ji , Bhabosa, Dadisa, Mota bhabi,,etc etc as important roles not the lead pairs. that is why Kokila modi is the face of saathiya not Gopi-Ahem. Family based shows.
The bottom line is Barun sobti along and IPKKND should have run atleast till 2013. Ahead u will see who is doing what but barun shouldnt have left whatever the circumstances be because people wont remember 4 lions and the PH will keep on making shows, it doesnt need ipkknd fans for it. Quboll hai is already doing well,, and somehow better in middle east.
Yash chopra gives a flop film like Thoda pyar thoda magic and laga chunri mein daag, but it doesnt affect the PH.But it affects actor's career like rani mukherjee. PH's never have career loss. That is why Ram Gopal varma, keeps on making movies even after continous 15 flops. and still is counted among top filmmakers. But actors 's loss is major when an actor takes wrong decisions.
