no sorry.. the time slot was perfect for maa durga bt due to loopholes nd viewers poor choice maa durga is leavng.. wat can u do wen ppl watch saas bahu shows... see 7pm slot was meant to target women mainly.. small townsThis is a shame, but I blame Colors more than JJMD in this case. First of all, the show is aired at 7pm - who on earth watches TV then? People who watch afternoon shows are then getting ready for people out (spouses, kids, etc) coming home, and people who watch evening shows are either on the road or just getting home. The worst time to air any serial. I recall how on Imagine TV, Rakt Sambandh, which had decent TRPs that were just picking up, dropped like a rock once it was shifted from 10pm to 7pm.
Now to the JJMD part. If a story is not as well known as Ramayan or Mahabharata, it is a good idea to populate it w/ either famous or good actors. DkDM charted the way - the first few months when they were showing Shiva/Sati's stories, a lot of it was made up, but the cast was very well chosen, and every one did brilliantly their roles. In this serial, the Durgas are the only ones carrying the show.As Tan pointed out, in Dwarkadheesh, they tried running the story on just Krishna & Sudama, but failed miserably. They went from a mediocre cast initially to a downright abominable cast later. As a result, even their Mahabharat track failed to gain traction.This show did have a lot of potential, since it would have featured little known stories about Ma Durga that are known by few people other than priests. But they lost this golden opportunity. Similarly, even DkDM did an abominable job showing (so far) the killings of Mahishashur, Raktabheej and Dhoomralochan, so a part of the potential that they had to show this full thing is also lost. I hope that at some point, DkDM tries doing this right in a retcon, such as showing someone in the serial narrating the full proper story and doing it justice.The other thing I didn't get - if Colors had the idea of combating LifeOK by running this Durga serial, why didn't they run it right opposite DkDM?
Sagar Arts' JJJMD is all set to bid adieu to its audience.
Yes, you heard it right. This mythological series on Colors will see its end early next month as it failed to garner the much needed TRPs as reported in the media.
Now, we get you the final date and its end.
As per a reliable source, the cast and crew are shooting for their last episode today (26 March 2013). And their last telecast date will be 5 April 2013.
So how will the end be? "As seen so far, Mahishasur has entered the show. He wants to capture all the three worlds including hell, earth and heaven. Therefore, Maa Durga fights him and his end will also mark the end of this mythological series," said a source.
However, since there is no new fiction lined up yet, the repeat of the channel's latest offering Bani will be aired in the 7 pm slot from 8 April 2013.
When contacted Piyali Munshi better known as Durga she confirmed the same.
