Pehredaar Piya Ki To Take A 12-Year Leap! Will This Work In The Show’s Favor?

The controversies surrounding Sony TV’s Pehredaar Piya Ki has brought enough troubles for the makers and the channel. The show’s storyline where a 9-year-old marrying and 18-year-old girl did not go well with the viewers. Also, the audiences think that the serial is promoting child marriage by showing such content.

Things became uglier when more than one lakh people signed an online petition which was initiated in the pretext of asking the Information and Broadcasting Ministry to ban it.


Few days back, The Broadcasting Content Complaints Council ordered the channel to change the time slot from 8.30 pm to 10 pm and also asked them to run a disclaimer.

As per a popular tabloid, the channel has released an official statement accepting the orders of BCCC.


The channel stated, “As per the decision of BCCC we are shifting the time slot of Pehredaar Piya Ki to 10 pm. The change will reflect from August 22 onwards.”

Also, the show is all set to witness a 12-year leap in October. Clarifying about the show’s leap, the channel said, “The leap will happen at the scheduled time. It’s not that this leap is happening because of all the controversy or the petition that has been filed. The leap was always supposed to take place in October, three months from the day —July 17 — the show went on air.”


Well, was this pre-planned leap work in the show’s favor or invite more troubles for the makers and the channel? Let’s watch and wait.
