Colors finally rises one spot, as Sony falls to 4. Still a huge gap between SP and the rest, and a fairly narrow gap between Colors and Sony. 
SP has seven shows in top 20, and three in top 5. Still a far cry from their heydey during IPK/Behna/SGP/DABH days when 7 or 8 shows in top 10 were SP. 
Salil Sand's tweets

Colors' Tantra and Sitaara both have tanked ... am so happy about that! Two supernatural shows bite the dust ... if more go that way, we might see an end to the supernatural trend soon. Manmohini on Zee isn't doing much better either.
Sony's Chandragupt Maurya doing reasonably well by Sony standards ... the acting of Chanakya is very good in the show. MMCJ is dipping ... not surprising ... I am losing interest in the show. Patiala Babes and Ladies Special also dipping slightly, but again seem to be safe by Sony standards. They are the same as Yeh Un Dinon, which is a very popular Sony show. So hopefully they are safe till they tell their story.

Sanaya continues to shoot in London ... this is a really long shoot! Some nice pics from her ... one on her insta, and some stories of nights out with friends and with Shivam , her costar. Karan Tacker was in London for AVTA, so San caught up with him. Have to say, while I'm really happy San has gotten a good break in BW, I much prefer watching her daily on TV. This is too long a gap!

Sony still at 3, after SP and Zee ... looks like while KBC has ended, the two new shows are holding steady. Colors is doing badly, trailing the other three. Only Naagin, Shakti and BB in top 20 ... BB only just.
Still can't figure out the draw of KKB 1 & 2 ... Kulfi is more understandable. Let's see how IB does after the leap  ... will be interesting to see. 
Patiala babes and Ladies Special are very watchable ... am enjoying them both. MMCJ is up and down ... although the acting makes it watchable ... or at least, sit through-able! 
KZK seems to be picking up ... might get back to it at some point.

Star Plus still ruling the roost ... happy to see Sony doing well on the back of KBC and Indian Idol ... no wonder eliminations are so slow on Indian Idol now that KBC has ended!! 
KZK2 rising slowly and steadily ... Manmohini, another supernatural show has a good opening ... God help us! 
Ishqbaaz re-enters top 20, maybe because of the impending leap.
Sony new shows are doing okay, which is a relief, as they are still watchable ... so hopefully Sony won't pull them off too quickly, or try to change the storyline. 
Colors is really sinking, except for Naagin ... even the old stalwarts like IMM and Shakti are now going down. 

Also watched the Koffe with Karan episode with Kajol and Ajay Devgan ... nice episode, very real ... Kajol as outspoken and frank as ever ... Ajay is quiet, but witty. I need to watch the Sara and Saif episode next.

Sanaya continues to shoot for Ghost in London ... her pics are intriguing, to say the least ... very modern corporate look ... so I really wonder what the story is going to be.

Star Plus continuing to do well, with 2 shows in top 10 and 6 in top 20. Kasautii seems to be climbing slowly and steadily. Sony at 2 ... but with the end of KBC, next week might be different. Zee is doing well with 4 shows in top 10 ... Ishq Subhan Allah has fallen though ... byt new shows like Guddan and Raabta have come up. Colors is still struggling ... BB has been pretty much a washout this year. Except for Nagin, none of the new shows have worked, only Shakti and IMM are bringing in some numbers. 

Tried out the two new Sony shows after KBC ended ... Patila Babes and Ladies Special ... watchable as of now. Also still watching Main Maayke Chali Jaaungi ... no other fiction show has caught my attention till now ... even my sporadic watching of KZK has stopped. 

Back!
