BARC Ratings Week 49: Naagin Continues To Ensnare Viewers While Star Plus Stays Put At Number 1
BARC ratings chart has started to look like a telephone directory to me since I only see one name at rank one i.e. Naagin. Is there no other serial that can challenge this supernatural drama? I almost feel like watching the show. Just kidding 😉 Zee TV’s Kumkum Bhagya and STAR Plus’s Saath Nibhaana Saathiya swapped ranks from the previous week with the former jumping up to number 2 while the latter declined to number 4 in the cumulative rankings. And Sony TV’s Super Dancer once again made an appearance in the top 5 ranks in both combined and urban ratings. The Kapil Sharma Show rose in urban rankings while last week’s riser Yeh Hain Mohabbatein disappeared from the top 5 ranks.
