Hi dears...
I just dreamt of an inside scoop...😆
Disclaimer: This is not meant to offend anyone nor is it related in any way to the makers of YUDKBH. Purely a work of fiction aimed at showing a positive light to the loyal audience of the show, with some pun and humour added. 😳
Bura na maano...Holi nahi hai fir bhi!! 😳
So here it is:
The CVs have written an open letter to the YUDKBH fandom, who's been crying after the Sameer bana mawali track. They just wanted to shed some light on why they took this decision. And it is revealed that it is for the fandom's own good! So go ahead n read:
Dear loyal Samaina fans,
We understand this week has had its share of trials and tribulations for you all. After all, with Sameer turning into a total bad boy- a mawali was something which we know was never expected. But please try and understand that the decision to show this side of Sameer has been taken in the best interest of our fans. Confused? Please read on to know how.
5th of September, 2017 was when we launched this show. Within a month, we were able to gather a good audience- most of whom were from the 90s who wanted to relive the era through the show. This was despite the lack of publicity we did on the channel (like we do for our other shows). Slowly, the fan base started increasing. We had girls drooling over Sameer's MPK style Salman look. He was enough to set hearts racing. The show was pure and simple till then. The music was well appreciated in addition to the other recreation of the 90s.
Slowly we moved onto the bet phase. And by then, we had a very good and loyal fan following, who ardently waited for the show at 10.30. We heard many of these viewers were those who had shunned daily soaps long back. All was fine till then.
And then came the bet revelation and Sameer's realization of his love for Naina. His journey of transformation and penance (as we've jotted down in our storyline of the show) was something the viewers came to admire. We heard that girls and women alike went crazy for Sameer. The way he was redeemed, made them all forgive his sins, and become desperate for the times when Naina forgave him too.
This is when the problem started. The viewers started becoming so lost in the show, were so deeply impressed by Sameer's character that they started living in an alter-world, as we are told. For example, in our recent interview Mrs. Bhagyashree (name changed) told us that she was getting friendships dreams of Salman's Prem Avatar, after 10 years of marriage. She could only think about, feel about, read about or write about Sameer and Naina. To the extent that when her husband touched her hand in the morning, she decided not to use her right hand. She just kept staring at it and as a result, the food she'd cooked, got burnt. \
Similar symptoms were seen in Mrs. Juhi (name changed). Mrs. Juhi told us that she was not feeling that her marriage was working out anymore. When her husband sat down to discuss the crux of the matter, she could only say, your hair is not as silky as Sameer's. She is not alone. Ms. Madhuri (name changed) has been feeling the absence of Sameer's charm, wit, his intense gaze and shy smiles in her boyfriend of the past 5 years. "I don't know what happened! He was the best for me. The perfect example of an adorable lover. One who took care of me like no one had ever had. One who loved me like no one ever had. But then, after I saw Sameer's love and respect for Naina, I suddenly saw him in a new light. The problem was- my boyfriend was not Sameer. And it was Sameer that I'd fallen for now!" she explained.
We had such instances pouring over from the country and from abroad. There were women who wanted to meet Sameer and wanted to marry Sameer. No, not Randeep. They meant Sameer. And then when we got the urgent letter from All India Association of Husbands and Boyfriends Exasperated with Sameer (AIAHBES), we realized we had to do something. They had scolded us for ruining the perfect love lives and happy marriages of many couples, only because of the way we showed Sameer's character build. I mean, their wives and girlfriends were suffering from Sameeria (a newly discovered disease where one sees Sameer all around. Common in women who watch YUDKBH). Finally AIAHBES was even considering a legal recourse, if we did not take corrective measures.
That really put a lot of pressure on us. We felt guilty that because of us so many women were suffering from this rare disease. After putting a lot of thought into it, we came to the conclusion, that Sameer's character has to be demeaned. For that, we brought out a completely useless Delhi track, where Sameer would be all alone- away from Mundit and Naina. There in Delhi, Sameer would have Amnesia. He would very conveniently forget the promises he made to his love and would start smoking, drinking, reading improper magazines, become a part of the gang who were into teasing girls. Sameer would forget about Naina slowly. He would miss her calls. He would not always respond to her letters, as now he would feel more interested in pariyaan that his mawali friends were going to show him. To the extent, he would bunk school, change into completely hippy clothes at the thought of meeting the hot women. And what's more, he would not even water the rose plant that he and Naina planted together.
And we are happy to say that our hard work has paid off. All the women, who've been suffering from Sameeria, have shown commendable improvement this week. Many of them did not even switch on their Televisions and skipped watching the show. We heard of women, complaining about and being disappointed with Sameer. I just got back from a call from AIAHBES, and they are saying that their members are very happy this weekend. It seems a miracle, but they've got their wives and girlfriends back into loving them. Not once, have any of them mentioned Sameer or compared them to Sameer. Infact, most expressed gratitude at not having a Sameer in their life.
Now all those women are back to real life and are living their own real lives.
Sometimes as creatives, you have to take steps which may be hard but are ultimately good for the fandom and their emotional health.
With this, we would say, keep showering us with love and your family members too. And most important, keep watching the show you love. Who knows, we might just start showing something sensible in a week or two.
With warm regards,
