i think we should just recognize the reality that smd is more like a mann jali than a pyare afzal or mpth. in mann jali the focus was on mehwish and her journey, and faris was the selfless ek tarfa pyaar. they tried to sell smd as bilal abdullah ki story but the writing does not support it. the writing is about sadaf ki zindagi, uske masle masayal, how she overcomes her struggles, how her feelings for BA evolve and transition. BA is just this one dimensional cktr who is in one sided love with Sadaf and worships at her alter. At least in MPHT, we saw Saad as a brother and a son, his breakdown at his father's death, his camaraderie with his sister. Here BA has no identity besides being selflessly in love with Sadaf. But they don't even bother with properly setting up or showing why or how he got to this point -- that just tells you how (not) central is BA's cktr. BA has no other personality besides being in love with Sadaf. BA has a backstory but we will likely get a few lines of exposition dump never to be heard again. His drunkenness never surfaced again after e3. We never saw BA having any struggles with overcoming his addiction nor we will see that journey of his either. All we will get is filler scenes of BA moping so makers can pretend it is BA's story. Whether it was writing, direction acting, BA as an addict and womanizer subplot was just wall paper thin and his change beginning e3 had zero depth and writing support, and doubt it will do later as well.

another project of wahaj with misleading marketing.

Oh okay so I hope from next week the actual story begins and focus is only on bilsad.

I'm saying this from epi 3 that this is sadaf's story and bilal is just a one sided lover of hers. The entire script revolves around sadaf as she's the actual protagonist. Maya has the most meatiest role and highest screetime among all. This one's gonna be one of the her most remembered character.

The least they could've done is shown a friend of bilal with whom he could share all his feelings but nope he has no one because neither he nor his family contributes anything to sadaf's story. If sadaf falls for ammar then he's just an extra in this story.

Both ary and geo have exploited and misused wahaj's popularity. Never expected kaddu uncle would exploit wahaj like this.

Wahaj is not a child. He is a 35 year old grown ass man. If he lets people exploit him, continue to say yes to projects where he is not the A plot, and then also not ace the performance, it's on him and we can't continue to just blame the makers.

You know how his thought process is. He doesn't care if he has less screenspace. He also believes that the director is most important for the show and not the writer. Also marketing the show is not something which is he can control. If channels promote the show by showing his scenes and dialogues then what can he do. His work is only to act.

Also like I mentioned in smd thread, on paper this show is a sure shot blockbuster but the execution has gone terribly wrong. Wahaj might have thought it's a good project with a mega budget but haseeb has ruined evrything with his 2010s direction techniques.

Hum considers different metrics. They don’t fake anything. They consider an age group of 15 to 35 years with A, B & C sectors only. They mention it in their flyers.

IM was still the highest TRP getter in the last few years with a TRP of 19 before KMKT surpassed it. I have a doubt with KMKT’s highest TRP as well. This time that Pdptrp account didn’t reduce the ratings after considering ads. He just posted it as such.


how can you determine age group by trp?

rural or urban ka one can know but there is no way you can get age group of viewers on tv

When the registration for TRP meters is done may be the age bar is mentioned there. I don’t know., I am just guessing it.

BAARC also used to write articles about which demographic group watches a particular kind of content. I don’t have a detailed knowledge about it though.

nielsen in usa also tracks ratings by age breakdown.

age range really matters for advertisers. note that the original purpose of trps is to determine ad rates.
