TAM Ratings: Week 22 (2014); Life OK topples Colors

IPL season is over and all the attention is back to the fascinating and intriguing world of daily soaps. Now, with each passing week, the TAM ratings chart is churning out numbers which can be termed as both baffling and surprising. And the high-point of this week, which has already caught the attention of the media, is Life OK packing a punch and toppling Colors in the race to the top. Yes, Life OK is perched at no 3 position this week while Colors plummets into 4. Well done Life OK and for Colors, high hopes lie on Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa. But we would suggest the channel to inject some fresh content in its fiction line up to up the ante. Here is a list of channels… Channels (Million TVTs) Star Plus: 655 (Million TVTs) Zee TV: 400 (Million TVTs) Life OK: 365 (Million TVTs) Colors: 347 (Million TVTs) Sony: 340 (Million TVTs) SAB: 256 (Million TVTs) The shows that managed to top in the IPL storm are Diya Aur Baati Hum (8.7), Jodha Akbar (8.0) and Saath Nibhana Saathiya (6.9). But we must admit that these shows had fared better in the last week.
