The week 36 of TAM TV ratings witnessed a new entrant in the general entertainment channel (GEC) category from MSM’s stable, Sony Pal. Launched on 1 September, it opened at 11 million GVTs.

On the other hand, week 36 also saw GECs going back to the same ranking order as a week ago. Life OK which recorded number six position last week is back to number four. It noticed 326,081 GVTs, up from 266,952 GVTs. Reason, its new offering in the non-fiction space - Dare to Dance. It seems like the charm of Akshay Kumar has worked wonders for the channel as it opened at 4,532 TVTs. Other popular properties have also witnessed a growth in the viewership. Thus, Shapath garnered 2,448 TVTs, up from 1,827 TVTs and Savdhan India registered 2,465 TVTs, up from 2,253 TVTs.
