    Mastiii Doubles will have two songs from the same actor, actress, singer or music composer back-to-back.The show is already shaking grounds by leading the music genre in that given day part by bagging an incremental gain of 83% where as competitors like 9XM and Sony Mix were faced with a decline. Mastiii Doubles will be telecast twice in a day from Monday to Saturday between 9am to 10am in morning and 5pm to 7pm in evening. On Sunday, the show will be aired at 9 am to 10 am in the morning and 5 pm to 6 pm in the evening.
