after all these lovely analysis,, i found that only the CB team doesnot follow the audience reaction,,bcoz we have always send them letters regarding punishment to the old lady and keeping radev together always,,but the cvs always ignore these two and do their manmani

The manmani of the Cvs is evident and high time viewers all protest about tracks after all for whom is the show for them or for the viewers.It is definately in both the hands(viewers and CVs) to kill a show.

They never listen to the viewers. Why isn't amma still not punished. She living happy in her own world. And good ones are being punished. Everyone wanted Dev and Radhika together not apart for five years. A lot of people liked them together and fighting the evil together. But that is never going to happen 😭

Thanks for the article Chalhov.

Rajan Shahi who proposes to bring about a big change in Sapna Babul Ka Bidaai by bumping off Sadhna and Ranvir's characters feels that giving in to audience demand could be a problem. "Yes, audience reaction is very important. Television is a medium where one gets instant feedback. But at times the audience reaction is extreme and it hinders the natural progress of the show," opines Shahi

Producer Sudhir Sharma says, "We really respect our audience's reactions, since we make the show for them. But we also have to be logical in our story-telling."

Chalhov thanks for the article. For me the sentences in bold stands out. I have mentioned this before we all have to write what we like and what we don't like. This is the only way the makers will know what we think about their tracks...accepting what is dished out to us just because this is how it works does not work for me. We do have the right to say or tell our feelings and critisize the story, writing, acting, presentation.......when I critisize something I am not bashing that person, I critisize so that it become better.

Although we are giving them different ideas, it is upto the creatives and the production houses on what they pick to incorporate in their story......if they decide to pick something then they should use their intelligence and think whether it mixes in well with their main story line....main premise of the story and their track or not...whether it will bring in any discontinuity in their tracks or not..whether it will clash with the characterisation or not........they should choose wisely and carefully and not because the suggested story is popular......if a story is shown in a logical way, it will click with the people...it will touch their emotions and will inturn become popular.

Chalhov ... thanks for posting the article

Misti ... you have written exactly what I wanted to say ... the creatives should listen to their audience but should use their intelligence when it comes to changing or continuing their story lines. Whatever they show should be presented logically and should not clash with their characterizations or the main theme. If the main theme has changed from when they started the show, they should be prepared to change their story accordingly. The original theme of CB may have been "sindoor bin suhaagan" at any cost but if the reason for the show's popularity was the Radev ethereal love story and kanha. they should change to that

As with any product, focus groups are important to determine whether the product will be liked/well received or not. While audience reaction is important, the creatives should not look only at the forum or the people who live in cities and have access to internet for their feedback. They should be looking at their entire audience and gauging their reaction to potential tracks. The rural audience typically tends to like something different. Also a track that is hugely popular in one show may not work in another.

The more diverse the audience base in terms of what they like, the harder it becomes for the creatives to satisfy everyone ... so ultimately they have to choose a story that they believe is the main theme of the show and show it well.

I have seen a lot of shows in the Top 10 that are absolutely horrible story wise and some in the bottom 20 that have very nice story lines but are not widely watched. At the end of the day, it is about making a good show, having great actors, getting the best time slot for that particular show and marketing it well.
