The newly started bold show on Star Plus "Ishq Kills" has suffered an initial setback as the writer of the show Shagufta Rafique walks out after writing first few episodes. The creative difference with the many people involved in the script department was supposedly the prime cause.
Shagufta told a leading daily, "When I came on board, I was told it'd be about dark mature love stories that resulted in crimes. But soon, I faced pressure from the channel to write young love stories and make them peppier. This is not what I had signed up for. So I decided to walk out. Unfortunately TV in India is not able to experiment the way TV shows in abroad can."
