Why SJ will rule weekends; Stratagem analysis: Weekday Show #23 > Weekend Show #1
By A Correspondent
The only way the ratings graph can go with Satyamev Jayate is up. Guess that’s the one-line message that comes from the detailed analyses that Mumbai-based Stratagem Media has conducted for MxMIndia on the eve of the launch of Aamir Khan’s megashow.
The statistics underscore what’s always been known but never possibly said. So concentrated is the emphasis on the weekday primetime and weekend blockbusters or award shows that the Sunday morning primetime has been ignored. Stratagem founder and CEO Sundeep Nagpal recounts how Sunday mornings would see 80 per cent viewership for Ramanand Sagar’s Ramayan and BR Chopra’s Mahabharat. That of course was another era with just one channel dominating the airwaves.
The charts presented by the Stratagem team offer interesting insights (please click on links to view tables):
1. Programme #1 on weekends gets ratings which equals that of Programme #24 on weekday primetime
Stratagem also looked specifically at Sunday programming.
2 .It is observed that Share and Average timespends differs in different quarters of the year
3. The GRP are comparatively low for Sunday 11:00 – 12:00 Hrs timeband
