Do you think ipkknd will come back with season 4

Hi everyone

I just started watching the show on hotstar and I am totally hooked to it.i know it would be 10 years of the show this June(I was 12 back and didn't discover it at that time)

But after watching It,I just couldn't wait to have more of arnav-kushi.I know the show was abruptly shut with lots of controversy involved (I googled and stalked old forum posts😅) and in 2015 special episodes were telecasted on hotstar to give us a proper ending to arnav-kushi and close the loophole.

I know that makers have given a proper end to arnav-kushi story but heart want what it wants. I still crave to see more of arnav-kushi chemistry

Do you think there is any chance of season 4, with Sanaya and barun in near future ?(even though they are aging,they are aging like an old wine 🍷)

I don't think so.

Firstly, I think they are happy doing other things.. secondly, they only did limited episodes when Arnav- Khushi were still fresh in the audience minds. So whats the point after 10 years.

Actually somehow even I know it's not possible,even though the show still has a massive fan following. The story of Arnav-Kushi is completed (probably since it wasn't stretched alot,it's still fresh in the audience heart& mind)

But Barun is absolutely phenomenal in romantic series and shows.its been so long him reprising romantic hero(last was tanhaaiyan).He was wonderful in Asur(thriller) as well and I heard its coming up with season 2. I read/watched couple of his interview and realised he as an actor is content driven and I wish he gets to do romantic-drama web shows/finite show on tv with Sanaya or any capable actress.

I love both Sanaya and Barun but I feel, even if he does come in a romantic show, they will probably cast a younger actress. Like they casted Barun with Surbhi Jyoti.😭

Barun and Sanaya are so good.. onscreen and offscreen as well

Honestly I don't why but I feel like he won't be interested in doing romance genre anymore(after watching his interviews) .I know he is more inclined towards finite series.

There aren’t too many good scripts on Tv these days probably that’s why. He did IPKKND 3 as well but it wasn’t as good as the first one.

It’s all too repetitive. Tanhayian was fresh and ate last somewhat different from the usual.

Barun is quite well read and I won’t be surprised if he even moves behind the camera after a few years. But he definitely deserves good roles.. he’s awesome.

That's exactly what I felt after watching his interviews.I remember in one of his interviews he talked about itv and it's regressive storyline.He also said that medium is not a criteria for him but good content is.

But honestly it's been sooo long now.He is been doing lots of thrillers these days and no doubt it's super intriguing and fun but I wish to see him in some light-hearted romantic genre.

I am a die-heart fan of romantic genre whether it's books,movies or content but I also know that now people are moving away from this particular genre, except itv. Do you remember the last romantic movie,web series released? It's a sad reality but slowly romance genre is dying 😭

ahhhhhhh dil ke baat kar di!! waise toh I would love if they did like a five six episode mini series thing with ten years later glimpse or something but the story of the show needed with Shyams reveal and their happily ever after loop closed in the Ek Jashan episodes properly so bringing back the show makes no sense. Even Ek Jashan was driven for the money it could bring in from international popularity instead of focusing on a proper potential story between the two.

As actors I think they both wouldn’t want to come back for something they’ve done. Sobti seems to go after finite and content driven stuff and Irani seems to go after stuff she can experiment with. As for working together I don’t think they’re opposed to it but they also don’t seek out working on similar projects because their motivations seem to differ in what projects they choose.

I think the reruns on air currently show that the shows popularity hasn’t died down but let’s be honest, there’s nothing left to explore besides fulfilling fans ke dil ke armaan.

I think with ITV, decades of exaggerated romance and then banking of certain troupes to make similar romance shows, shows that romance as a genre is not something creators handle with as much nuance. After IPK, so many shows tried to do a hate love thing except they all turned their men sexist and degrading the romantic interest. even IPK 3 went a step ahead in romanticing abuse which i don’t think IPK 1 did that much besides couple of episodes’ of manhandling.

I saw that Ram Kapoor and Sakshi Tanwar are doing a romantic web series. if something like that comes up i think sobti would be much more inclined to take it up but ofc all of these are assumptions from their public persona.

edited to add;

I just saw the promo of the only other show I followed besides IPKKND from beginning to end which was Kuch Rang Pyar ke Aise bhi. It's season 3 is coming out soon and looks like they are going to focus on martial issues etc. IPKKND has a potential to explore something nuanced especially with who is kasha and how she fits into ASR's world instead of Arnav Ji's world but don't think we'll see a take like that. we got a brief glimpse into how Arnav and Khushi had different perspectives on being parents with Aarav and an extension of something like that would be great. a mini series coupled with the nuance and grandeur of initial episodes of the show would fare well but don't think that's something to expect.

I think a lot of it has to do with itv in general. ITV has never been progressive or pathbreaking but ten years back, at least, one could experiment with themes; so, you had medical dramas, shows about corruption, journalism, intercaste marriage etc etc. Today, none of those things are imaginable. Even though, the good shows ended up having few regressive undertones ten years back, they were still open to explore new themes.

All the shows, at present, are over-glamourized shitshows without any real content or character development. Every other show on ITV is an unimaginative love triangle today. They are regressive and boring.

Thirdly, films and television both are businesses but films allow much more space for good content because it's a finite medium, you have to show a good story within n hours for the audience to be interested. There are other ways to recover money in films too— selling broadcasting rights, copyrights etc etc— which are not a possibility for itv. They make money by selling oversaturated products everyday. The writing takes a backseat.

I cannot imagine an "office-office" or even a "Sarabhai v/s Sarabhai" being made today. They both are fabulous actors; Barun has a marvelous range. I don't think they would absolutely hate working together due to the mess with the shippers. They are very good friends from what I understand. But itv lacks the skills to develop nuanced storylines. So, good scripts with Arnav and Khushi as a seasoned couple are unlikely. If the storyline is picked up, it will be to cash in on their popularity which, again, isn't very exciting.

But they should definitely work together on some other exciting script. If someone could execute realistic love stories outside of films, it would be these two
