Yes, I agree with your points.
I had made a few posts last week, when this story of his quitting came out - about why the rest of the cast and crew should suffer if he has decided to leave
I understand SPs decision to continue the show - its an established hit show, and Sanaya is a huge draw as well. This is a business decision. It is probably hard to establish new shows.
Although I want to continue seeing all the remaining cast in the show, it will be hard to digest another man in Khushi's life. it will destroy all our sweet memories of Arshi, the VMs and the FFs we have spent out life on. So I dont know if I will be able to continue watching IPK.
Frankly, all the other saas-bahu shows on SP are not appealing , I may end up switching channels.
If you look at the history of 4 Lions and Gul, they have made good stories
MJHT - a big hit
DMG - ran for 700+ episodes
Geet - another hit show
And it is not that IPK is the only show they are currently producing
At this time, they have on the floor :
IPK
Suvreen - Topper of teh Year
Arjun
Hamse Hai Life,and their newest
QuboolHai
I heard Sadarsh's interview with Barun myself today, and someone asked - do you add input to the script ? And Barun said - I am ASR/Arnav 12 hours a day - so yes, I have been giving input for the past 1.5 years
And he said it will depend on the script as to when he comes back.
He also said he gets bored. So maybe he is feeling that he needs to do something different.
He is not getting any younger. There are very young kids getting a break in movies - see the 2 new male entries in Karan Johar's Student of the Year ? So if Barun wants to try movies, this is the time, else it might be too late for him to get in as the main lead in movies. All the other TV actors are doing supporting characters only.
So I think there are at least 2 reasons he is taking a break:
1. he needs a break - he looks like hell
2. he doesn't like the track being shown
3. And the 3rd - he is exploring movies, and has no chance to look at scripts and meet with people while he is shooting 12 hours a day, 28 days a month
So I agree with you about why Barun is quitting. he does want to explore his options.
But the question that remains in my mind is - why did Deepali and Akash leave ? Its proven that PH can handle multiple shows - so what is up with that ?
I will continue spamming all teh available e-mail and twitter ids to reques them to retain Barun in IPK, but I think now the man himself is not interested.
Please dont bash, I am expressing my opinion onlyEdited:
Just saw some tweets from mishti

?@mishti_doll
I m nt a CV or nt working on sets so stop questiong
me.. As i cnt do anythng.. If it wl b in my hand, i wl nvr say Barun to
leav..
So IT SEEMS BARUN WAS ASKED TO LEAVE !!!!
We were right all along 😕
I take back my above post - he is not leaving to explore other options - he was told - your track is over
