You must have learned various formulae in your School and College days in Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Geometry, Tignometry etc. Now you will learn Ekta Kapoor’s Hit formulas for Daily Soaps .Following are the formulas
No-1) The name of the Soap should start with letter K This is mandatory.

No-4) There should be an ideal mother and a bad son.
No-5) There has to be Death or Exile of the lead Character.
No-6) Antim Sankar of the character who has died must be shown.Therefore Ekta’s many white Saris , gent’s kurta payjamas, matkis & other antim sanskar samagris in her studio.
No-7) There has to be re-entry of the lead character. Either a new actor / actress for the same character OR the same actor as hamshakal of the character.

These are the main formulas of making daily soaps.So common jorde down in your book , who knows when you need these formulas to make a sabun which is as durable as Ekta’s sabun.
Ekta has used all the 9 formulas in her daily soap Kesar but still the TRP of the show is not very high.Infact viewers are finding it boring and also finding difficult in excepting new Kesar -Prachi Shah. Also the Character of Muskaan looks older than her mother Kesar.
Its my suggestion to Ekta-Kapoor , please discover some new formula to make your Soaps worth watching.
