In the GEC segment, if there is one channel whose performance have been consistent, its Sony TV. It makes space for every new channel and moves one position down. Nobody bothers, no heads roll and it has been going on like this since last few years.
In the last few weeks, Sony has moved to No. 5 position. Courtesy Rakhi Sawant. 1st-2nd is shared between Colors and Zee Tv. Star Plus is at no. 3, NDTV Imagine has move to No. 4 and Sony is at No. 5. For more numbers, click here.
Recently Sony revamped its programming with shows like Bhaskar Bharti, Ladies Special, Palampur Express and Entertainment Ke Liye Kuch Bhi Karega but the result was the same. Tonite it launches the reality show Iss Jungle Se Mujhe Bachao, the desi version of I’m a Celebrity…Get me out of Here!
But the big question is…Will it save Sony ? We will get to know tonite. The promos of the show make it look like a fake jungle with tacky production. Its easy to guess that they have shot the promos here. Hopefully the show will look much better.
The format is simple. Survivor meets The Big Boss. 10 celebrities. Malaysia’s Taman Negara National Park. 2 months of adventure. Whoever survives, wins it.
