Reception

Response

It's sure that Bade Achhe Lagte Hain is going to take a leap. However, Ekta will announce this to the media holding a proper press conference. It will be a huge progression for the show, and you can tell it as a re-launch...

Bade Achhe Lagte Hain was very well received by by the audience because of its mature love story and also because of the superb chemistry between its leads. It was declared a "Hit" by many news channels, newspapers, forums and blogs. Co-producer and creator Ekta Kapoor said: "When we started Bade Achhe Lagte Hain, the plan was to run it for only 150 episodes. But fortunately, the show has done well. Now the challenge is: how to take the storyline forward and maintain the freshness?"

The show became one of the most watched show of 2011 and has also made Sony Entertainment Television India number 2 GEC.

Bade Achhe Lagte Hain was also dubbed in Telugu and started to air on Gemini TV from April 9, 2012 as Nuvvu Nachhav or Nuvvu Nachhavu. However, it suddenly went off-air on August 31, 2012 leaving behind an incomplete story, covering only about some 205 episodes.

The plot saw quite a bit of changes and touched new dimensions altogether a few months before the five year leap. And to maintain the freshness of the show and the very good TRPs Ekta Kapoor had to introduce the five-year leap. Post leap, Samir Kochhar plays the role of Rajat Kapur, the parallel male protagonist in the show and the story also took a complete different turn. Post leap some 36 episodes (Episode 102-117) was shot in Dubai. The leap was not well received by majority of the people. Ekta was also told to have received hate mails. She said: "My inbox has also been jammed. Honestly speaking, hate mail can get quite unnerving at times." She even considered taking a six-month season break but she said: "But in India, unlike the West, we don’t have such a structure. Plus, we can’t keep making it dramatic with day-to-day happenings."

Awards

Bade Achhe Lagte Hain bagged Sakshi Tanwar and Ram Kapoor their first Dadasaheb Phalke Academy Award. The show has till date won six Indian Television Academy Awards, three Apsara Film & Television Producers Guild Awards, five Indian Telly Awards, three FICCI Frames Excellence Honours, three People's Choice Awards and several other prestigious awards, all including several categories.
