First Gul Khan
1. Madam ji, first its shocking that such a talented lady like you coming from mass communication background doesnt know what place consumers/TV audiences hold for entertaintment content.
IPKKND 1 was not an ordinary show. The script and the pairing were supports of each other.If the story felt weak, the arshi pair saved it...and if arshi pair was absent then the tracks of mamiji, nandkishore, NK, payal -akash, Anjali-arnav relationship saved the show. But what is the saviour for IPKKND 3? Nothing.
2, I agree Ekta Kapoor is minting huge money through Bhramarakshas and nagin series but those were not the sequels of any popular love story. IPKKND 3 is an effort to make it a supernatural thriller with snakes, treasure, and also include love, tragedy of advay-chandni. Gul khan cannot be genius as ekta kapoor or be successful like her. Ekta kapoor never thought of bringing Kahin to hoga or kyunki saas bhi kabhi bahu thi as naagin series. She creates different content with changing times. She also made a gay love story in Alt Balaji web series. Gul please dont try others tactics.
3. When IPKKND was running it was due to barun the show came to an abrupt end or the show had very much potential to develop new tracks till mid 2013 as long as no generation leaps happen. Launching TV serials may be easier but to get a hit running show like IPK season 1 is no joke.But a Hit show got closed due to barun. While Sanaya kept loyalties to herself she was not thought of.. Is there nothing in this world called ethics? Even if sanaya doesnt fit the role, dont make the show with the name of ipkknd and rabbave and spoil her legacy she created.. Why did Gul reunite with the man who ruined her hit show. Just making sequel with same name and popular actor gurantees sucess??? NO. The BARC report proves the reality.
This show would have been better if shivani would have been casted with some other leading men not sobti. My simple question IPK 1 is still unforgettable, why ruin your own brand like this and also by uniting with the person who ruined the first season.
TO BARUN SOBTI
1. You are undoubtedly a very good artist. But you fell short of some principles and planning buddy.
You are such a good looking guy. If you had planned your career properly you would have been at secure position. Barun nobody likes to say openly their mistakes and errors, we know that so much you try hide or deny your unsucessful stint at bollywood the fact is, YES you failed at bollywood. Critical appreciation for Tu hai mera sunday is not going to change you into a hot property in bollywood. 22 yards is another disaster project with a debut filmmaker who is less a filmamaker and more arnav singh raizada fan girl. John abraham broke professional ties with you by dumping Satra ko shaadi.
2. IPKKND 3 is getting poor feedback allover. The real audience, aunties at homes who dont fight online wars are watching other channels at 8pm, If people are angry with IPKKND 3 its not because of you pairing with Shivani. The reasons are deeper.
The grudges of last 5 years have not been forgotten. A huge huge huge section of ipk season 1 fans feel that if you were exhausted you could have anyhow forced the channel to take a month break and then return back . You were in such a position where star plus didnt want to lose you. They would have agreed. In all jobs, if people feel tired, they take leave,they dont quit and sit home for five years. If bollywood was your aim as it was put in star plus disclaimer, then we all would have loved it if it was planned properly. Were you being launched by a big name like UTV did for Sushant that you left ipk? Couldnt you wait for a good banner barun instead of Main aur Mr right ? IPKKND was not a show which would run for eterninity. You could have quit before any generation leaps happened, or atleast given 2013 to ipk. Your abrupt exist had hurted fans.
3. THE REAL REASON
Just understand one thing in other shows also when the show ends the lead pair work with other new stars but nobody goes mad demanding old pair to reunite. Reason is the old show closed or completed peacefully. But IPK season one got abrupt closure as you quit. If IPK one would have ended peacefully nobody would have rejected your new pairing. All these drama wouldnt have happened.
People are rejecting advay-chandni cause people feel barun you were responsible for closure of first season, so when your career flopped in movies you returned in tv by signing deal with star plus and gul for IPK 3 but without the previous lead actress who was sincere and who faced show closure due to you.
4. We all would have loved to see you progress but your wrong decisions have hurted us and its hurting you also professionally when you will see ipk 3 being closed down ahead might be if TRP keeps falling.
You had given long lectures in 2013 how TV is nothing much to offer for you as you were concentrating on films. if you had to do TV again and that also play ASR why then this drama of quitting , sitting at home for five years.
