&TV show Badho Bahu to end in May?

Featuring Prince Narula and Rytasha Rathore in lead roles, Badho Bahu has been one of the most loved television series on &TV. Ever since its launch, it has been garnering huge TRPs for the channel along with winning awards and accolades for its unconventional storyline. But the bad news for the fans is that the show might bid adieu to the audience very soon.

According to some insiders, actress Rytasha Rathore, who plays the female lead on the show, has lost her interest in it due to creative dissatisfaction. She has even stopped coming to the sets to shoot. We also hear that the makers were planning to replace her and continue, but since they failed to find the right replacement, a decision has been taken to pull the plug on the show.


“Rytasha has of late showed lack of interest in the project and wanted an extended break from the show. The channel and producers actually gave her the needed break which has gone quite long. Even now, Rytasha is in Turkey holidaying, while her track is being evaded from the plot. Things look a tad difficult to shape up and thus, the show might end by May (2018),” reveals a source.

Badho Bahu is produced by Dipti Kalwani under the banner of Hum Tum Telefilms and Sunny Side Up.

  • Gen Z is normalising “subscribe-use-cancel” behaviour

Subscription businesses sold consumers a simple idea for years. Paying £9.99 every month felt easier than paying £300 upfront. That logic helped create a global subscription economy now valued at more than $1.5 trillion, spanning streaming, music, cloud storage, AI tools, fitness apps, gaming and even coffee memberships.

But the model that once looked unstoppable is entering a difficult phase as inflation, price fatigue and changing consumer behaviour collide. Around 47% of consumers cancelled at least one subscription this year, according to recent subscription industry surveys, while companies are increasingly shifting focus from rapid growth to customer retention.
