  • Marathi GECs see a surge in viewership

    Marathi GECs see a surge in viewership

    MUMBAI: In an era when Hindi and English GECs are favoured by the audiences, good times are seen to be rolling for Marathi channels as there has been a gradual increase in viewership for the genre in the past eight weeks. According to the Broadcast Audience Research Council (BARC) data, the Marathi GEC genre has grown by 145 per cent in viewership during the period thanks to substantial numbers in week 50 of 2017.

    Marathi GEC genre has surprisingly turned out some of the most viewed channels in the television space during this time. In week 41 in 2015, the genre had registered 242 million impressions, whereas in week 50 of 2017, the viewership has grown by 145 per cent to touch 594 million Impressions.

    The growth is driven by viewers in Maharashtra and Goa’s rural areas spread across 10-75 lakh towns. Of the total Marathi GEC genre, these states’ urban sector contributes to 57 per cent of viewership, while rural contributes to 43 per cent.

    Rural viewership has grown by 203 per cent from 91 million impressions in week 41 of 2015 to 277 million impressions in week 50 of 2017, whereas there has been a growth of 156 per cent in the urban viewership.

    Now the question arises, what worked in week 50 with Marathi GECs genre?

    According to BARC data, Zee Marathi channel had a special event telecasted Zee Marathi Disha on Sunday which garnered 1609 impression (000s) sum, pulling up the slot by 30 per cent as compared to week 49.  

    Colors Marathi network had also aired a special event Shindeshahi Bana on Sunday which garnered 1.47 million impressions, thus improving the viewership by 27 per cent. Zee Yuva had a double premiere ofBoyz on Sunday which garnered 2.74 million impressions in total. The first airing pulled up the slot by six times whereas the second show pulled it up by 2.6 times as compared to week 49.

    Star Pravah has been operating at a higher level post week 48 which is majorly because of the new show Nakalat Saare Ghadle launched in week 48 and the already existing show Goth.

    The emergence of Marathi GECs genre in week 50 with a gradual boost in its viewership has left everyone surprised. The growth of the rural sector has added wings to the Marathi genre to fly high. Whether it sustains the momentum in the next week and year it highly awaited.

    Savdhaan India launches it’s new season of Savdhaan India

    MUMBAI: Life OK’s flagship series Savdhaan India has received tremendous love and respect from the viewers in the last 4 years. In this journey, it has not only alerted citizens against crime and but has also given them the strength and motivation to face crime. In addition to showcasing real life incidents, the show has also advanced to acknowledging brave hearts who chose to fight against crime through Samman Awards.

    Savdhaan India is all set to start its new season with a hard-hitting avatar. The new season’s philosophy – ‘darrkarnahi, dattkar’ urges the citizens to break their prevailing attitude of letting things be, of letting the powerful get away with crime, of not speaking up out of fear and face crime head on. As a brand that has always believed in walking the talk, Savdhaan India took the campaign on ground across the country and interacted with the citizens of Delhi, Lucknow and Ahmedabad

    The campaign began at the capital city Delhi where the ‘darrkarnahi, dattkar’ anthem along with the pledge movement was unveiled for the very first time. In the next leg of the campaign, the anchors visited notorious crime locations and interacted with the citizens there. SarkhejGandhinagar Highway in Ahmedabad and PatrakarpuramChauraha in Lucknow were visited as hit and run cases and eve-teasing incidents are very prevalent in these locations respectively.

    Savdhaan India has always acknowledged the youth to be change agents. Hence, following the visit to the crime locations, the team of Savdhaan India visited schools and colleges. The hosts invited the students to become partners in this attitudinal revolution. The students using a palm scanner digitally pledged their support. The hosts discussed youth related issues like eve teasing, ragging, bullying and cybercrime. At HK College in Ahmedabad many students shared harrowing experiences of being bullied and eve-teased and how they fought it. While in CMS, Gomtinagar – the students and the hosts had a very relevant discussion on how to protect oneself on social media.

    A picture lasts forever and with that thought – the team of Savdhaan India created a huge pledge wall in these 3 cities. All those who were a part of this initiative clicked a picture of themselves against the wall to remind themselves of the pledge they took. More than 1000 pictures were collected. Lastly, the hosts felicitated the bravehearts who narrated their own stories of facing crime fearlessly thereby taking the of initiative ‘darrkarnahi, dattkar’ to life.
