Someone important is getting replaced in DKDM. Our prestigious newspaper has been given this exclusive scoop by the producers of the show. Yes. They are replacing the audience.
Life OK had this to say when asked about this dramatic step they are taking more than a year and a half into the show:
"We always strive to do what is best for the show. At this point we have decided that since the show has taken a new direction, we need to do this radical change in order to keep on going with the success we are so used to now. This was not a easy decision, but it was becoming a little difficult with the kind of audience we have had in the recent past. It has been rather a challenge to keep up with their constant demands and whining. One set hates Sona, another set wants to know why Adi Shakthi is degraded constantly. Yet another group wants proper puranic content and finally we have the regional groups who think we are insulting their version of puranas and history. We have tried our level best to satisfy all, but given the fact that hate is the order of the day and some of our current viewers do know a thing or two about Puranas, we think we need this change."
Asked about who the replacement audience is going to be, Life OK has this to say:
"We are going to replace the Indian audience with the Chinese. This makes perfect sense for the following reasons:
1. We are giving a lot of gyan on communism and socialism. Indians have a capitalistic outlook. So all the gyan is lost on them. Infact we have letters saying that because of freebies, workers are not available for simple handyman repair jobs in the house. Chinese are great audience for this.
2. Chinese are not familiar with our Puranas or even the language, but Kailash is currently in China. So they will be able to relate.
3. China has a larger population. Translates to more people watching, more TRP.
4. I don't think Chinese woman will vilify Sona as much. Heard they are nice girls out there.
We have started the transition by symbolically showing dragons (Ravan invokes them when building the palace). We hope the transition is smooth and the show's success will continue."
We wish the channel and the show all success in China as well.
