The curtain finally drops on Reporters today.
The thought has saddened me for days but facing the reality is a different ball game.
The last episode will be aired in a few hours and thereafter there will be a huge void not just in my life, but in the lives of all its ardent viewers.
Yes we all knew it was a finite show, but we didn't know then, that the show will end up meaning so much to us. There wasn't a single episode that wasn't chocoblock with content. Missing a single episode was blasphemy and led to requests of live updates on various social media platforms.
The concept of the life and happenings of a news channel were never before explored on TV. We saw how dedicated Ananya was to her principles even while following a variety of leads. We saw Kabir go from a power hungry channel honcho to a man with feelings, all along covering relevant topics of the day.
We saw a Nidhi Rane wrongly incarcerated, a Mahi Malhotra recover from drug addiction, a Bhavna Shroff manipulating an entire channel for her purposes to an arms deal thanks to Ananya and her Fida Bhadresh Kutty. We saw the Sudhir Kashyap murder being solved at last....albeit at great cost.
After seeing such finesse, how does one move on?? I certainly can't. So come tomorrow, I start rewatching from Episode 1. And I know for a fact, many are following suit.
