Bravo Bri! I hope they read and internalize these! Edited by -pixie- - 13 years ago

Brilliant Post Mi Teacher 🤗🤗🤗

Good job bri.. I wonder if they will realise..

11. Do not drop coconuts on unsuspecting viewers

Viewers may talk like nuts but they do not like baseless characters dropped on them.

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Excellent

12. Remember your fisrt promo when the show was not even aired.

U may have short term memory but some viwers were really attracted to that promo What extra ordinary acts Geet did that every grl wants to b like her. After 8 moths u gave us the answer & that is she ran away frm home & win a man's heart who use to avoid women & taught him live life. mission accomplished I guess.😆😆

13. Dont make ur hero as supreme as God.

Some will fantasize & some will get bored😕😕 14. Dont give hi hope to the audience with articles.

U will goof up ur own show & ur own viwers will let u down😕😕😕Edited by shadowstreet - 13 years ago

superb post 👏😉

What a brilliant post !👏

Especially the point no. 4 to 8 .These points must be read by the CVs/PH of GHSP !

13. Do not take your viewers tolerance and forgiveness for granted.

They have an expiry date.

14. Do not think that a few romantic highs will make up for unending creative lows

The viewers are not always suckers for romance. Kuch Kadak kahani bhi chahiye.

15. Do not think a string of moments make an episode/episodes.

They don't....they are only momentary and have no purpose in the long run.

16. Do not forget the story is the king....

Baki sab timepass.
