&TV to axe its new show Mitegi Laxman Rekha

Competition on television is so high these days that if your show fails to grab audiences’ attention within one or two months of hitting the tube, the channel won’t think twice before axing it. The same seems to have happened with the new &TV show, Mitegi Laxman Rekha.

Launched with much fanfare, Shashi-Sumeet Productions’ soap hit the airwaves on 29 June. The show tried its best to attract the audience with its innovative concept and fresh pairing, but nothing worked in its favour. Now, reports are coming in that the channel has decided to pull it down due to low TRPs.


A reliable source confirms to an entertainment portal that the last episode of the show will go on air on 31 August. The makers have been informed by the channel about this sudden development.

The show bidding adieu to the audience within 2 months of its launch indeed comes as a shocker. It is yet to be known that which new show will replace Mitegi Laxman Rekha on &TV.

'Doctor Who' gets a 2026 Christmas lifeline as BBC ends Disney+ partnership

Highlights:

  • A new Doctor Who Christmas special is confirmed for 2026, written by Russell T Davies.
  • The BBC’s global partnership with Disney+ has ended after two seasons.
  • The BBC says it’s “fully committed” and will announce full series plans later.
  • Spin-off ‘The War Between the Land and the Sea’ and a CBeebies animation are still on the way.

Looks like the Doctor will be making another Christmas stop. The BBC says Doctor Who will return in 2026 with a festive special, a quiet way of telling fans the TARDIS isn’t going anywhere, even as its deal with Disney+ ends.

The announcement ends months of speculation about the sci-fi institution, which hasn't been on screen since Ncuti Gatwa’s final episode in May, which ended with the surprise appearance of Billie Piper. The special will be written by showrunner Russell T Davies, but the big news is the end of the Disney+ deal, which had handled the show’s distribution outside the UK since 2022.
