The show is a even bigger hit among terrestial viewers; it has posted ratings of 11 among those homes which have access to Doordarshan. This is the biggest plus for the programme apart from the buzz it has generated on the Internet.
The TAM data shows the show garnered roughly 50 per cent higher ratings among the Upper SEC audiences (SEC A 5.9 TVR). It has been a huge hit among the young people and it registered a 14.4 TVR in the 15-34 age group.
It has generated positive response from advertisers though it remains to be seen if it can sustain the momentum. The Shah Rukh Khan-hosted Kaun Banega Crorepati also opened to above-10 TVR ratings to even out below 5 later.
