If the sources of a leading web portal are believed to be true, Zee TV’s Ishq Subhan Allah and Dil Yeh Ziddi Hai are on the radar of going off-air and their shoots won’t resume once things get back to normal.
We recently reported about Sony Tv’s popularBeyhadh 2, Patiala Babes, and Ishaaron Ishaaron Mein being axed. The shows have been ended abruptly and won’t return on TV post lockdown. Looks like the list of shows being axed amid lockdown is yet to get longer.
If the sources of a leading web portal are believed to be true, Zee TV’s Ishq Subhan Allah and Dil Yeh Ziddi Hai are on the radar of going off-air and their shoots won’t resume once things get back to normal.
According to the source, the channel might pull the plug now or very soon post lockdown, lifting as feared tanking of the economy might make it difficult for the channel to sustain low rating properties for long. If internal chatter is to believed channel higher up want a minimum baseline rating of 1 TVR and both the shows were below this threshold when shooting ceased mid last month.
Ishq Subhan Allah actor who did not want to be named said, “I too have heard this buzz but have not officially informed. When the TV shoot first stopped mid last month, everybody on set was hopeful of quickly getting back to work. But now with no clarity on lockdown lifting, things might have changed, for our call to creative is going unanswered. Guess no one wants to reveal plan which might again change at the last minute.”
Adan Khan said, “Honestly I too saw some tweet suggesting the same but don’t know how true it is.”
Dil Yeh Ziddi Hai lead actor Rohit Suchanti too claimed to have no clue.
Zee spokesperson says no such decision has been taken. However, our sources maintain something is cooking for sure.
