Didn't they do the same with Priyanka Mishra last year? She was told that she is going to come back in few weeks. I think initially the plan was to have ONS between her and Dev, Radhika confessing to the first wedding, her getting kicked out and then Shantanu bringing back a pregnant Vishaka. But, then due to audience protest, they scrapped the story and left her hanging. Didn't have the decency to tell her that her role is chopped off. Then, after Kanika track there were probably plans to bring her back as they were only interested in triangles. But, then the show ended and she was quickly reformed and forgiven leaving audience frustated with the ending.
Angie I don't think that they would have progressed with ONS.......but Vishaka definitely would have come back later. Their plan might have been to bring in Shantanu and let him to create mischief....I mean why will Hiten come to play a cameo? I can understand if the cameo was powerful one, but here Shantanus character was one of the most ill defined ones.
Also, Ekta Kapoor's serials have storylines of side characters. So, even though her characters are also ping-ponging with the exception of few, at least there are other storylines to pursue and hence when some story is not working, they move on to side characters.
As far as burning etc., triangles etc is concerned, Zee is doing this in almost all their serials. They showed burning in other serials too with the main lead rescuing worthless characters. I don't watch any of their other serials but am familiar with storyline of couple of them. No logic remains in their show either from the very beginning or after a serial is one year old.
Yes EK shows illogical stuff too..........infact all shows do it but EK knows how to package it. I read about the other burning plot in the other show. I also got the news throught their updates and things written about the show.
It is similar to what happened to Hiten's fans. Initially, they came with a lot of excitement but then left the show after finding a lousy characterization of Shantanu. Same is the fate of leads of other show that was started with such fanfare by DJs and Zee and the one that used CB's sets. That show is really rated low despite the popularity of two veteran lead actors. I think the show has not been able to attract anybody other than the die-hard fans.
Ahh the one that is on bullet train now.π

As far as CB2 is concerned, if it comes then it would probably be introduced in place of Agle Janam so that they can compete with SGP. [/QUOTE]
I am not too sure about this. Anyway I am not too bothered about the time slot, so long its a primt time one........I am more worried about the screenplay, characterisaion.........edition and direction........also the actors playing secondary characters. Edited by misti73 - 13 years ago
