You are right, Kamal's redemption, reema's motherhood, Darshni bua & professor's relationship, Zeba's condition, chandan's career nd many more things were left in between. Ravi's dream was not just opening school but give good education to children from weaker section of society. We never got to know what happened.
I guess the channel has wrapped up all Indian serial and is focusing only on foreign shows. Fatmagul & The little lord were good, but they just ended . . . its too early to repeat them. ATSH could have finished in a better way if only one more month was given.
At the end, these channel look to grab maximum eyeballs for profit. how does it matter whats the content after all. I really miss watching ATSH.
While going through some old comments on ATSH songs on youtube, I got to know that complete show was pre-shot (even before it started airing) and it was always meant to have 150 episodes only! I remember that I read the same thing about the number of episodes when both these shows (other being KKZP) were launched last year!
So, one thing is clear that its not channel that has suddenly pulled the plug on these shows. It concluded the way creatives wanted, and if someone is to be held responsible then it has to be the production team!
I agree that its too early to repeat Fatmagul (my personal favourite) and Little lord, firstly, because both of them had been hugely popular here (especially Fatmagul) and most of the viewers had followed it religiously in its original run. But Zindagi economics are weak, people do demand rerun of popular shows, but re-airing them without a proper break results in viewership loss, for people tend to skip through most of episodes, and in turn incur below than expected viewership!
Secondly, Zindagi being a premium class apart channel, is known to fetch quality content from all around the globe, and repeating shows again and again will make people lose interest in this channel! (For having aired Feriha 4th time)
Anyways, I dont know, after having said all this, shall I treat this news positive or not, that ATSH has started its rerun from tonight at 2:15 AM for those who had not been able to catch it in its original run. (like me)
