Prithvi Vallabh to go off air; Salman Khan's show to replace?

Mumbai: Sony TV's brand SET Originals was launched with much fanfare with the magnum opus Prithvi Vallabh. The series, produced by Aniruddh Pathak's Writer's Galaxy, was highly anticipated, courtesy the colossal budget and international appeal that it had.

The historical drama featured Ashsish Sharma and Sonarika Bhadoria in primary roles and the second season of the same was already on cards. However, it seems that the future of the show is in dark.

According to a credible source, the finite series which is limited to around 60 episodes has been cut short. The channel has apparently decided to pull the plug of the weekly.

Going by the information, the makers have already started cutting the story. The second season which was already announced and pre-planned has been scrapped. The writers are wrapping up the storyline by this season itself. An insider revealed that many characters' subplots have been reduced. Apparently, this season will wrap up within 40 episodes, instead of 60.

According to the conjecture, it is said that Salman Khan's show might replace the weekly. The untitled project is helmed under Salman Khan's production house. TellyChakkar had earlier reported about Mukul Dev and Pooja Gor being the primary cast of the series that will narrate the underbelly of the Mumbai's cops.

The show has already gone on floor and if everything goes well, it might go on air by next month.

We dropped a text to Aniruddh Pathak and he replied, " We don't receive any termination till date..I have nothing to say .. at this time." (sic)

Sony promotion from the beginning was weird .. not even proper repeats regular promos ... thn suddenly they stopped promoting nd cut even SNS promotion

btw SOny nd makers always promoted it as 40 epi series .. now this article say 60 epis ? nd it hhas been cut short .. 😕

this article is soo confusing

recently there was news abt S2 shooting now they have scrapped 😡😡

That's right Partu
that 60, 40 is confusing
Even if they have decided to end they can make it some 50-60 eps atleast
and the first season is already shot, so why not air it fully🤢

Frankly dint expect this from Sony but now they are going SP way, even sp they did same to Aarambh. But maybe biweekly shows have this faith. except ekta mata naagin because it is supernatural and trp aunties show.
