Sai Ketan Rao feels audience disconnected from the show due to THIS strong reason
Sai Ketan Rao, felt that the death of Agastya was the reason behind the audience getting disconnected from the show. He said, ''At first, I was Agastya. He is a very nurturing person, a lover at heart. He is always there for his family, always there for Imlie. He is a caring person and, at the same time, a shrewd businessman. For the first 6 to 7 months, people were so connected with the character. The TRP was also pretty good at that time; it actually felt good. Everything was going well.''
He further added, ''However, as the story progresses, things need to change so the story can move forward, so Agastya had to die after a certain time. I think the audience couldn't digest Agastya's death. They were still expecting that Agastya would come back. Then Surya came, and as Agastya didn't make a return, I feel the audience got disconnected from the show and the story.''
Here's a video of actors who rejected the role of Abhimanyu in Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai below:
In the same interview, while talking about his first reaction to the show going off air, Sai Ketan Rao said, ''Imlie is my third show and by now I know that it's a part of the journey. I gave my best, people loved it, that matters to me a lot. My first reaction was, it's part of my job, part of my journey. If a journey is starting, it will end eventually.'' The makers of Imlie have always introduced a generation leap whenever their show's TRPs had a dip. This time too, fans thought the makers would introduce a new generation; however, it seems it's finally time to say goodbye to the television show Imlie.
