Ek Haseena Thi, Pyaar Ka Dard and Veera to go off-air?...
Star Plus has 3 new shows in the pipeline and to make way for these new shows the channel is planning to axe some of its current shows. We heard, Cinevistaas' Ek Haseena Thi, Yash Patnaik's Veer Ki Ardaas..Veera and Rajshri Productions' Pyaar Ka Dard Hai Meetha Meetha Pyaara Pyaara might go off air in the near future.
According to our reliable sources, "Star Plus is coming up with three new shows, Ashutosh Gowarikar's Everest, Nikhattu of Shashi Sumeet Mittal Productions and Rajan Shahi's Tumhare Sheher Mein. The channel needs 3 vacant time slots for these new shows and will soon decide to pull the plug on Pyaar Ka Dard, Ek Haseena Thi and Veera."
Gowariker's ambitious project Everest, which was supposed to go on air in April will see the day light in November and most probably replace Pyaar Ka Dard or Ek Haseena Thi.
Rajshri Productions' contract with Star Plus for Pyar Ka Dard will end in November, so there are chances that it will wind up to make a way for Everest.
We reported earlier that, Veera got a new lease of life, so will it end in near in near future? Our source said, "Star Plus has given extension of 1 year, but that doesn't mean Veera is safe for next 1 year. The channel has full rights to end the show by giving 1 months' notice period to the production house."
As of now the future of Ek Haseena Thi and Veera is unpredictable, they might be replaced by Tumhare Sheher Mein and Nikhattu in coming months.
This isnt related to YHM directly but we have been wondering if we would go back to 11 again - guess the coming months will tell and now we know which shows to keep an eye on. As of now chances are bleak considering we are in the top 5 shows as per TRP charts in the new 7.30 slot...so this could be permanent and SP is known to air the repeats of new shows at late night. Last night post YHM - NAUC was on instead of EHT at 11.30, with the advent of 3 new shows its a possibility 11 pm repeat might be just alloted to the newest entrant too.
@blue - is pure speculation on my part...just a heads up.
