Buzz is it will be replaced by Rajan Shahi's new show Kuch Toh Log Kahenge, starring Mohnish Behl and Kritika Kamra, by October 26.
Producer Asit Modi of Krishnaben... refuted the rumours. "I haven't received any formal intimation from the channel. Agreed, the TRPs aren't great but the show has its audience.
On the lines of Gandhigiri, Krishnaben solves issues with her progressive approach called 'Krishnagiri' and people are enjoying it," he says.

But yes, there has been a change in the time slot as well as the telecast days," she says.
If sources from the channel are to be believed, the show that has been on air for a year now has been served the 'red mark', an indication of it being under the scanner.
