All of my friend circle & relatives have stopped watching the soap. I figure the rating will be high the coming week, because a lot of people watched out of curiosity & to judge whether to go on watching. A lot of people have decided not to. So we will see the actual result in the week after the next rating.
@Nikks - That's because indian audience is much more gullible. Look at the condition of the TV industry - the avg. quality? People will settle for anything, they submit their choice/opinion to PHs very easily. I feel people not accepting the change & voicing their opinion is healthy. How else will the consumer command TV viewing if we don't do that. The ball always lies in the court of the producers, this way.
And this sort of not just acceptance, but promotion of the replacement, I am honestly seeing only on IF here. Elsewhere I have only heard negative stuff. I can understand if people like an actress, its their personal choice, but I have not seen people promoting Toral as I have seen here. I have a feeling, a few people from the PH have the job of actress promotion here. Because here I see people censoring the opinion of a majority of people, sneering at them for not willing to accept change, calling them cry babies, emotional fools, etc. This is shocking for me. In the TV industry, where people get selected based on looks, personality, voice, acting skills, etc, the viewer will obviously think over these and be judgmental about these aspects! Their personal opinion/liking of a person on television will depend on all this.
Here an actor is replaced by another one who looks the compete opposite of the first one. Obviously comparisons will happen. You can't censor human nature! Here it's not about bashing a human being for his/her looks. That happens when an actor has been in a certain role for some time & his/her look, etc is bound by the character scope. When people unnecessarily criticize or put too much emphasis on styling, looks, etc.
