So Nimki Mukhiya(Currently known as Nimki Vidhayak) is coming to an end on 1st Feb 2020 About750 Episodes is a long journey. And it’s been a great satisfying journey. As acreator, NIMKI MUKHIYA was my favourite. I did what I wanted to do. From thescene one to the last scene of the season was exactly the way I wanted. And Ican proudly say that Nimki Mukhiya was a show that should be seen, discussed,and moreover, all the broadcasters should seriously take a note that seriousissues, socio-political drama do work if made with honesty and intelligence.Intelligence is key. And yes, BELIEF. As far as second season Nimki Vidhayak isconcerned, it didn’t bring the desired result. And I take all the blame. JOACHCHA THHA VOH MERA THHA, JO ACHCHA NAHI BAN PAAYA VOH BHI MERA HAI. Apologiesfor not meeting the expectation. I must thank channel Star Bharat for thefreedom and support they gave. Usually, the channel team is always consideredpeople from the other side of the fence but I must say that programming teamIra Choudhary, Paridhi Nilkanth, Ajit Valecha were so supportive that I alwayscall them my CORE TEAM. Ira a big big thanks to you. I thank all the actors andtechnicians for the support and being the integral part of the journey. Theyhave worked so hard for the show. I thank my writing team, Deepanjan,Nananeeth, Rishi Kamath, Atif Aziz, Utkarsha. Last but not the least, I thankthe audience for the immense love they showered upon the show. Thank you somuch. And as usual, I don’t care about the actor’s fans who keep shouting – “Iwant this or that”. “How can you ruin the story?” Abay tere Papa ki kahani thhikya jo maine kharab kar di? Teri banayi hui biryani mein namak ka dabba ulatdiya kya maine? Just go, take a hike. Coming back to NIMKI. I thank everyonewho supported the show. Thanks. And yes, yes, I must thank my co-producerIshrat Habib. Come, Ishrat, let’s go on a trip. We have made enough money . #NimkiMukhiya #NimkiVidhayak#QissagoTelefilms #Gratitude
