Tried and Tested Formulas by Sneha
Today shows have become lot more cautious and careful about the way they develop their stories as they want to raise their TRPs, which defines the popularity of the show. There are various ways the creative teams accomplish this โ by doing a song sequence, the typical saas bahu fights, the birth secret track, or following a popular movie theme such as track of dostana, and of course the cute fights and make ups between the leads. They do not work out all the time but one has got to do something to keep the show going and what better way than to use these tried and tested formulas.
Song sequence - One of most common and entertaining way to boost up the TRPs of the show. We have seen many shows such as Geet, Pavitra Rishta, Saural Genda Phool and many more shows that do that. Songs are roped in whether its in a dream sequence, or during the marriages, and festivals such as Diwali and Holi. What is so great about this formula?? The greatness lies in shifting of the track which makes it more entertaining and enjoyable. We get to see the leads in different avatar, which is always good for a change. Some of the popular songs used recently are kurbaan hua and the wedding songs in Geet, Baaho ke Darmiean played on Viren and Nivi in Chand Chupa Badal Mein and Tip Tip Barsa Pani in KitniMohabbat hai. Hence its a'sure shot funda for succeess.
Movie Tracks โ One of the most popular track is that of dostana which was played in Mile Jab Hum Tum between Benji and Uday on various occasion. Maybe it was the way the scenes were portrayed by Benji and Uday or maybe it was the track but one thing is for sure, it never ceased to bring the laughter to the audience. One of the most common track is the amnesia track which has been shown in countless movies and currently this track is being played in both Sasural Genda Phool and Sanjog Se Bani Sagini.
The famous saas bahu drama โ the one track that has been going on forever! Shows like Pratigya, Sanjog Se Bani Sagini, Chand Chupa Badal Mein, Pavitra Rishta and many more have tried this track and it works like charm each time. Times have change and so have the preference and concept in the television industry but it is funny how some things never change. Same old story โ saas torturing her bahu either because she is not from well to do family or because his son went ahead and married the girl against his mother's wish... or sometimes both. And the poor bahu who just seems to have no choice but to take in all the atyachars being thrown at her by her not-so-dear-mother-in-law. This is one of the great way to create drama and tension in the show, not only it keeps audience at the edge but it also makes them curious as to see what will happen next.
Saving Damsel in distress โ one formula that no matter how many times you show the audience โespecially the girls โ they can never seem to get enough off. We all fall for those intense gaze the guy gives to his love, the way he always saves her from the all downfalls at the right moment when the terrified girl is surrounded by jerks! Oh and then of course she gets hurt in the process and the guy carries her in a bridal style melting not only the girl's heart but ours as well in the process. No matter how mad the guy is with the girl he will always be there for her in all the difficult times and in the process they make up if they have had a fight, or makes the person realize the importance of the other person which finally leads to the confession scene. Hence these all scenes so makes us wish that we had a guy like that in our lives too.
So thus here are a few of the tried and tested formulas that have worked almost all the times in the shows. They bring in new twist, as new character gets introduced which again leads to more dramas and tension which keeps the show going. There are more formulas that work wonders when it comes to TRPs and the audience.And if old works why take a risk with new..
