Remember the time when dinner was not served in the home before 11 PM because your mother did not want to miss the episode of Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi? Or remember the time whenever your dad answered every question that Amitabh Bachchan asked the contestants of Kaun Banega Crorepati? Or even those moments when grandmothers believed that her four sons signified the characters of Kahaani Ghar Ghar Ki?
Yes, these are all the unforgettable memories that were, and even today, mark the energy of Hindi Television shows and what it has been doing to us in the recent years.
We Indians are always high on the emotional quotient and whatever strikes our emotional chords could be an immediate hit. That is why, family soaps have managed for connecting to people, which in exchange gave the shows their TRP's, awards and the tag to be the absolute most successful show in the Indian television history.Ajooni Today Episode
Similar is the case with reality shows. The audience cried once the contestants failed and celebrated if they prevailed. These reality shows gave an opportunity to the standard people to improve their destiny and acquire fame. It made people believe they have the same chance to be on television, and that looking attractive or walking around production houses to showcase their talent was not required anymore to be a part of a show. Therefore it is not wrong to say that Indian tv shows offers us lots of drama, entertainment and opportunities, which connects all of us to it.
But the idea also to be noted here is that folks change their preferences quickly with new shows. Channels like Zee, Colours, Star and Sony are trying very hard to come up with the most effective mixture of family soaps and reality shows to improve their TRP's.
Currently, Colours stands second in TRP charts with their shows like India's Got Talent and Balika Vadhu. However, Sony Entertainment stands tall with Kaun Banega Crorepati, CID, Bade Acche Lagte Ho and Crime Patrol, and walks away with the chunk of top shows in the charts, both in the daily soaps section along with the reality shows section. Star marks third with their show Diya Aur Baati Hum, after their drop in the charts with the conclusion of Satyameva Jayate season one.
But at the conclusion of your day, these numbers really don't matter to the Hindi television audience. What really matters in their mind is the emotional connect that they find in the reality shows and family soaps these channels have to provide them.
