I mean, if it is the same writer yet- What happened to that show she wanted to create- Did it just get smothered in the race for Numbers??? This particular writer has left a show before when she did not agree with the decision of the channel/PH/Creatives about the way the story is proceeding. I still want to believe that this group of writers SJ and RB can yet bring back the old charm- If only they were allowed, Unless we are mistaken about other factors (Read Channel) interfering with the content.

The only part that seems any bit of progress is Ashok increasing Ruhi's work load and Shagun being money hungry agreeing to it. Whatever it is its progress. I dont know about child labour laws india but Ashok's demand seemed like he was crossing the line. Ashok being back to indirectly helping Ishra. If, please let me be true with this theory, Ishra can use child labour as a main clause to get their daughter back if the cvs allow Ishra to have their brains back. If not we are still at square one

LOL that's my Ass-Oak, so generous (albiet, unintentionally) when it comes to Ruhi and IshRa! I HOPE they go the child labour/abuse route... oh please please please, CVS, kuch toh sharam karo yaar... enough negativity!!

I'm right there with you Krishy. I don't really understand the TRP system... I barely understand the ratings race on my side of the pond... ok, I don't want to understand it but I am hoping that this new revamp gives the CVs some scope and push to return the show to it's original glory.

Here's my thing- okay so this new format clicks with some people, but it's just like every other show, don't you want to make it a stand out? If your 'the same track that's on every other show' model doesn't work or gets boring, you recognize that the viewers can perhaps switch to another channel with the same track and a less follically prosperous leading man right? So if people are going to switch the channel anyway, why not give them a different content from which to choose? Wasn't that the original idea?🤪

I just don't get it. I don't get the current content. I don't get the target audience. I don't get targeting such an audience. I don't get the waste of talent. I don't get the lack of imagination. I don't get the waste of time. I don't get the wasted potential.

*sigh* I guess, in the end, what I ultimately don't get is why I waste time complaining about this when I know it doesn't really make any difference...😭😭😭

Did she say no to Ekta? 😲

I didn't think anyone in tellywood had the balls to say no to the female don of desi TV if they valued their career, from actors to spot boys...

Can't agree more! What is the driving force for the decline?! And, I feel bad for the talented yhm cast for having to act in such a nonsensical storyline.

Anu, this viewers can perhaps switch to another channel with the same track and a less follically prosperous leading man right? 🤣 I like how you kind of sneaked it in there!

So you caught that huh?😉 It's always at the forefront of my mind and honestly, if I didn't know about the 'before' and tuned in now, I don't think I'd stick around for the 'after' especially with the current track ... so yes, I got it in there, because dangit, potential eye candy does affect my viewing choices. #call me shallow #I don't mind #As long as it gets me my RKB back #This is ridic #Forget RKB 2.0 #Forget Game of Thrones: India #We're headed towards Duck Dyanasty : India 🤢
