Meanwhile, at No. 3, Zee TV has added 50 points to its kitty, to bag 221 GRPs during the week, while its relative share has moved up to 17.5 per cent (12.9 per cent in Week 14).
The push for StarPlus primarily came in with the launch of its new show Navya at 10 pm, and its weekend event Pantene Star Parivaar Awards 2 (Sunday, 8 pm), observes a top media executive. For the record, Navya has already made it to the Top 10 list in its debut week, with a TVR of 3.85. It occupies the ninth spot.
"For Zee TV, it was the DID Doubles and its grand finale that helped fetch the extra eyeballs," the executive says.
