Anup Soni On Why He Left Balika Vadhu

When asked if stretching any show impacts the viewership of the audience, Anup Soni shared, “Bilkul hoti hai na? Aur maza khatam ho jaata hai. Bhai, koi bhi writer ya koi bhi maker jab koi kahani likhta hai, to aapko lagta hai woh 2000 episodes dimaag mein rakh ke likhta hai? Woh 100–200 episodes likhega, 300 likh lega, 400 likh lega… ek saal bhar ka content to likh hi lega woh, plan kar lega. Ek track ke aage koi ek saal se zyada ka plan nahi karta. Ek saal ke baad to woh bhi yahi sochta hai — ‘Yaar, dekhte hain chalta hai ki nahi chalta’”.

He continued, “Toh Balika Vadhu mein bhi, aur Balika Vadhu jab maine chhoda tha, to maine sirf ek hi baat pe chhoda tha — ki mere kirdaar ke paas kuch karne ko hai hi nahi. Aur yeh baat maine teesre saal ke khatam hone ke baad hi bol di thi makers ko. Lekin maine chautha saal bhi kiya. Kyun? Kyunki unhone kaha, ‘Sir, thoda aur wait karte hain, haan karenge sir aapke character ke liye.’ Chautha saal nikal gaya. Maine kaha, ‘Dekho bhai, thoda bahut hua lekin mujhe lag raha hai ki hum neeche hi ja rahe hain. Mere paas aur kuch nahi bacha karne ko.'”

The actor concluded, “Main aapse yeh nahi keh raha hoon ki main aapse demand kar raha hoon, right? Aap mujhe thank you bol do, bye-bye bol do. Kyunki aap bhi kyu change karoge apni kahani meri wajah se? Mat karo apni kahani change. Lekin aap meri plight samajh jaoge, kyunki mere paas as an actor karne ko kuch nahi bacha hai. Ab finally jaake unhone bhi kaha ki ‘haan, theek hai.’ Lekin tab bhi unhone mere kirdaar ko maara nahi, kahani mein bas bahar bhej diya.”
