‘Kaun Banega Crorepati’ doing better than Salman Khan’s ‘Bigg Boss’



KBC 4 gets the maximum rating

In the year 2000 when Kaun Banega Crorepati started with Amitabh Bachchan as its host, it changed the way Indian audience watched television. The show was a huge hit and, now after ten years, its fourth season has proved that no other reality show is like it. The ‘KBC 4’ viewership figures are quite high than the Salman Khan-hosted ‘Bigg Boss 4’ and Akshay Kumar’s Master Chef.

Going by the opening, the first day of KBC 4 topped the list of best opening shows with 6.2 TVRs (television viewership ratings). Earlier, the record of best opening was with Khatron Ke Khiladi 3 which had Priyanka Chopra as the host. If Bigg Boss 4 had an opening of 4.8 TVRs, the Akshay Kumar show Master Chef on Star Plus managed only 2.6 rating. Channel Sony Entertainment which owns KBC 4 claims that their show has got the most successful launch in recent times on Indian television.

There is no doubt that the audience loves every moment of KBC 4. The towering baritone of Amitabh Bachchan, his eloquence, and his unique style of presentation ensure a better quality Indian television in comparison to the otherwise low-grade reality shows which are rampant nowadays, and one such show is Rakhi Sawant’s Rakhi Ka Insaaf which was pitted against Akshay’s Master Chef.

As a tabloid reports, every third Indian likes to watch KBC during prime time, with the show carrying a 32 per cent reach in the four episodes of its first week run. The show’s first week average of 5.3 TVRs is also the highest for any non-fiction show recorded over the last year.
