well i think u r giving it too much of a thought dear..........in india the television density is very low and add cable connection to that and u will get a poor number..........the record is for IPL with 12 something and then followed by dabaang or 3 idiots premiere with 9 something .....don't worry MKAP has reached upto 6........this is in hindi GECs..............and regional GECs rules in india more than hindi channels............for eg : in kerala the most watched program gets  15 TRP ratings ................so i think its just numbers 😊

I know 4 is a very good rating. I just never knew that TRPs mean percentages of viewership. Just think even 4 percent comprises such a large population.

Truly wish that one day MKAP reaches a TVR of 10... breaking all records 😊
