In a surprising turn for loyal fans, Star Plus’s popular television drama Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin is officially set to go off air soon. Despite its iitial success and massive popularity, the show has witnessed a sharp decline in viewership ratings in recent months, prompting the makers to pull the plug.

Actor Hitesh Bharadwaj, who earlier played the role of Rajat in the series, has finally broken his silence and shared an emotional response to the show’s abrupt ending.

Why Is Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin Ending?

After captivating audiences for years with its intense storyline and emotional drama, Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin began losing momentum following a major leap in its narrative. The post-leap storyline failed to strike a chord with viewers, leading to a significant drop in the TRP ratings.

In an attempt to revive the show’s fortunes, the makers brought back actress Bhavika Sharma, hoping her return would re-engage audiences and boost ratings. However, the move didn’t yield the expected results, and the decision was finally made to end the show.

According to industry insiders, the decline was gradual but consistent, with audiences finding it difficult to connect with the new track, leading to reduced engagement on both television and social media platforms.

Hitesh Bharadwaj on Show’s Legacy: “Ghum Will Never Be Forgotten”

In a recent interaction with Zoom and TeleTalk India, actor Hitesh Bharadwaj expressed heartfelt emotions about the show concluding. Reflecting on his time on the set and the show’s overall impact, he said:

“Ghum will never truly go away. It will be remembered for many years to come. Everyone who was part of the show — from actors to the crew to the makers — gained something valuable from it. This show holds a special place in all our lives. Even though it’s ending now, I will always be grateful for being a part of it.”

Hitesh’s portrayal of Rajat, a pivotal character before the story leap, had earned him praise for his performance and screen presence. Fans have continued to express their admiration for his work on social media platforms, even after his character’s exit.

Praise for Bhavika Sharma from Her Former Co-Star

During the same interview, Hitesh also took a moment to praise his former co-star Bhavika Sharma, who played a lead role in the series. Commending her dedication, he shared:

“Bhavika has always been a hardworking and sincere actress. We had a conversation recently, and she too felt saddened by the decision. But we all have to accept the truth and move forward.“

Bhavika had returned to the show during its last leg to help revive the storyline and retain audience interest, but the attempt couldn’t reverse the show’s downward trajectory.

What’s Next for Hitesh Bharadwaj? A Double Role in Sony TV’s ‘Aami Dakini’

While fans are mourning the end of Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin, Hitesh Bharadwaj is already gearing up for his next big project. The actor is set to star in an upcoming supernatural drama titled ‘Aami Dakini’ on Sony TV.

What makes this project exciting is that Hitesh will be seen in a double role, portraying two very different characters — Rudra Pratap Singh and Ayan Roy Chowdhury. He will be joined by Rachi Sharma, who plays the female lead in this intriguing new series.

The show promises a fresh mix of supernatural suspense, complex characters, and high drama — a genre shift from his previous roles, which were rooted in emotional family drama.

The End of an Era for Star Plus

Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin, produced under Cockcrow and Shaika Entertainment, first aired in 2020 and quickly rose to become one of the top-rated shows on Indian television. With a gripping storyline revolving around love, sacrifice, and complicated relationships, the show connected with millions of viewers across the country.

Starring notable actors over time — including Neil Bhatt, Ayesha Singh, Aishwarya Sharma, Bhavika Sharma, and Shakti Arora — the serial maintained high TRP ratings for nearly three years. However, like many long-running soaps, its narrative fatigue eventually caught up.

As the show prepares for its final episode, fans have taken to social media to express their emotions, share favorite scenes, and thank the cast and crew for their work.

Fan Reactions and Online Buzz

The announcement of Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin going off air has triggered a wave of reactions across platforms like Twitter, Instagram, and Reddit. Hashtags like #GhumHaiKisikeyPyaarMeiin, #GHKPM, and #HiteshBharadwaj have been trending as fans post tribute reels, emotional farewells, and best moments from the show.

While some fans expressed disappointment over the post-leap plot, others appreciated the earlier storyline that kept them hooked for years.

Though Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin is ending, its cultural impact remains intact. The show successfully ran for over 3 years — a rare feat in today’s fast-paced television industry. From introducing fresh faces to launching careers and creating viral moments, its contribution to Indian television is undeniable.
