The true measure of a TV serial's success is its TRP (Television Rating Point), which reflects the viewers' preference and the show's popularity. In the 25th week's TRP list, major shows like Anupama and Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai once again maintained their dominance.
Entertainment: In the television industry, everyone, from viewers to the makers, eagerly awaits the weekly TRP list. This list not only indicates a serial's popularity but also determines the strategy for upcoming episodes. The 25th week's TRP ratings have been released, and this time, a major upheaval has been observed.
‘Anupama’, which has been holding the number-1 position for many months, suffered a major setback this week. It was replaced by India's longest-running comedy show, ‘Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah’.
17-Year-Old Comedy Show Becomes Number 1
‘Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah’ has been tickling audiences for 17 years. Characters like Jethalal, Tappu, Bhide, and Daya have made their mark in every household. In the 25th week, the show achieved a fantastic TRP of 2.3, securing the first position. Viewers highly appreciate its simple and clean comedy, which provides an opportunity for everyone to laugh in a family atmosphere.
Anupama at Third Position, Why Did Ratings Drop?
Rupali Ganguly's superhit serial ‘Anupama’ had been consistently number-1 in recent weeks. However, in the 25th week, it slipped to the third position. Anupama received a rating of 2.1 this week. Actually, a leap was recently shown in the serial, in which Anupama comes to Mumbai and starts a new life. Fans say that the sudden major change in the story is a bit jarring, which has affected the ratings.
‘Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai’ in Second Place
‘Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai’ has once again managed to win the hearts of the viewers this week. With a TRP of 2.1, it is in second place. This long-running family drama continues to captivate audiences with new twists. Several other serials have also secured their place in the 25th week's TRP list—
- Uddne Ki Aasha at number four (TRP 2.1)
- Laughter Chef 2 at number five (TRP 1.6)
- Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin at number six (which is now going to be shut down due to low TRP)
- Mangal Lakshmi-Lakshmi Ka Safar at number seven
- Advocate Anjali Awasthi at number eight
- Shiv Shakti at number nine
- Mannat at number ten
The Changing Equations of TRP
The game of TRP is very interesting in the world of television. Sometimes, viewers' preferences change suddenly, and sometimes, the twists in the story bring ups and downs in the ratings. The comeback of ‘Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah’ shows that the craze for light-hearted family comedy still prevails in India. On the other hand, people also like emotional dramas like ‘Anupama’, but if there are sudden changes in the story, the audience reacts immediately.
