After Tu Mera Hero (serial), this serial was like the perfect comeback for the actor, but the sensitive subject of him being the breadwinner of the family sacrificing his own dreams didn't strike a chord with the viewers. With an air run from 18 July 2016 to 7 October 2016, it had Priyanshu Jora and Namita Dubey in the lead roles. With a beautiful set like straight out of a Bollywood film, Bade Bhaiyya Ki Dulhaniya shut shop in a couple of months. Despite Amrita Rao's TV debut and with the supportive cast of Deepti Naval, Aditi Vasudevan, Pallavi Joshi and Zarina Wahab - the show turned out to be a disappointment, failing to meet the humongous expectations. The show was said to be loosely inspired by the lives of the singing sisters Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhosle. Started on 5 March 2016, Meri Awaaz Hi Pehchaan Hai made a quick exit on July 15, 2016. With an angle of terrorism entrapped in bureaucracy and political drama, the show failed to maintain its pace with the audience. Harshad Arora and Tridha Choudhury played the leads, essaying the role of an IAS officer and a lawyer, respectively. The show had all the boxes ticked to make it a much-loved one, but alas, the scenario looks glum and gloomy for this show.ĭahleez was a romance courtroom drama which was aired from March 2016 to 26th June 2016. While Rajat as Akbar was loved by masses, Shweta made a strong comeback post her infamous controversy. Started on 10 October 2016, it stars Rajat Tokas as Chandragupta Maurya and Shweta Basu Prasad as Nandini and is based on the life of Chandragupta Maurya, one of the major Indian Emperors of ancient India.

However, unlike Chakravartin Samrat Ashoka or Jodhaa Akbar, Ekta Kapoor's magnum opus Chandra Nandini is faring poorly on the TRP charts currently.

TV audience loves drama series based on history. Alas, be it the time slot, starcast or big launch, nothing is able to help this sinking ship. The story of Raghav and Naina, two individuals who are fated to meet and fall in love in a foreign land, but destiny has some other plans for them - PMHMD had all the ingredients of a successful show. Produced by Ekta Kapoor, it had the camp's blue-eyed boy Arjun Bijlani as the lead actor.

Said to be loosely inspired by SRK's film, Pardes, the show was touted to be its lead actress' Drashti Dhami's comeback. Pardes Mein Hai Mera Dil made headlines even before its run on TV.
