No, you aren't wrong and it's not TRP Thursday yet. Unlike you weekly dose of offering the ratings every Thursday (at times Fridays), we have now decided to introduce a new and growing concept of watching TV shows and that is online TRPs.

Yes! Time and again, and in different articles everywhere, we have been writing about online ratings have become so important and infact an important parameter for multiple TV shows to survive on. In the past, one would remember how shows like Kuch Rang Pyar Ke Aise Bhi and Beyhadh would not perform well on the BARC ratings, but would do exceedingly well online, thus running for over a year.

So, taking all that into consideration and a lot other things, here we present to you the Top 10 shows, which were most viewed online.

As we said, at times it is the online reach that keeps a show running and that certainly seems the be the case with Colors' Kasam Tere Pyaar Ki. With barely 0.5-0.6 points in the BARC list, the show cannot even dream of entering there, but is one of the most viewed shows online, With a decent 17.5 points, the show is a certain favourite on this medium and fetches the 10th spot.

It is amazing how Zee TV's recently launched Ishq Subhan Allah has become the success story it is currently. Amongst the few shows to not only be in the BARC list, but also in the Online list, the Adnan Khan-Eisha Singh starrer grabs 18.9 points and the 9th spot.

Having entered and exited the BARC list multiple times, Tu Aashiqui has been going through a lull phase lately. But, that certainly doesn't seem to be the case online, as the show not only garners the 8th spot, but also a decent 20.0 points.

The popularity of Yeh Hai Mohabbatein is no secret and the same transpires online too. The show has been rock steady when it comes to it's spot in the BARC list, and here too, with a decent 22.1 points, the show grabs the 7th spot.

Talk about being consistent and rock steady on both platforms and Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah's name cannot be missed. With a steady spot in the BARC list every week, the show is also digitally popular and this time, it grabs the 6th spot with a good 24.0 points.

Last week saw Colors' Ishq Mein Marjawan topping the online charts, but this week it has witnessed a huge fall down to the 5th spot. Not too much to worry though, as such a huge variant is actually quite common online. With 26.4 points, the show is still going strong.

Another show, which realistically hasn't and will never see itself coming in the Top 10 list of BARC ratings is Sony TV's popular show, Yeh Un Dinon Ki Baat Hai. Sony TV's history of presenting digitally popular shows has been maintained by this one, where with a pretty good 28.8 points, the show grabs the 4th spot.

A recently launched show, Bepannaah has managed to become popular at a really fast pace, where fans keep on discussing and analysing the many happenings in the show. The show either enters or exits the BARC list with decent points, but undoubtedly, is one of the most popular shows online, With an amazing 31.2 points, the show grabs the 3rd spot.

Similarly like Bepannnaah is the story of Star Plus' popular show, Ishqbaaaz. Once a regular member of the BARC list, the show has been an active-inactive member of the same lately. But, digitally, the show continues to be one of the go-to shows for millions out there. With a fantastic 33.0 points, it's Ishqbaaazi everywhere.

Topping the online rating charts this week is Star Plus recently-gone off-air show, Naamkarann. The show aired it's last only this past week and clearly that is one of the reasons for the show top the list this week. So, as we say, there couldn't have been a better farewell for Naamkarann, where with a staggering 35.5 points,the show tops the online TRPs.

I am almost certain that you are wondering the crazy difference that BARC list and the Online TRP list possess, isn't it? Well, that is how it works and that is how we know digital world is growing, where and when it becomes the parameter of popularity and reach, thus at times, deciding the fate of the show.

We will be back next week and will now start the comparisons just like we do always!
