1. The No. 1 reason for the high TRPs in not exactly 'No. 1'...this page is updated periodically...with the last controversy/issue put on the first page as 'No. 1'. 😛
2. Pretty BIG FACTUAL error there: the 'No. 1 reason for sudden high TRPs' (according to you😉) given in the article happened THIS WEEK. the TRP figures are for LAST WEEK (Week 1 of Halla Bol). So HOW EXACTLY did Ali's smooching threat contribute to the TRPs of the last week? 😆😳
3. Even in the week where TRPs reached 3, the week was dominated by the Ali-Ajaz incident, Sambhavna's shoe throwing incident, Dimpy-Rahul-Tanna angle, and Ali pulling Gulati into a fight. So last week was not 'all about Ali vs Gautam'.
4. Another factual error: Upen entered the show on Monday. Showmance happened THIS week. So your dismissing its contribution to the TRPs of LAST WEEK makes NO SENSE whatsoever. 😳
5. Err...since when did TOI stop being a tabloid and become a reliable newspaper. 😳 But that's besides the point. The article and its claims about TRPs seems false...because this week's TRPs are still to be released (Ali threatening to smooch Gulati). That proves the veracity and reliability of the article.
Agreed, that Gulati is the national 'hero'. But he surely wasn't able to bring in any TRPs in the entire season. Even in the last two weeks, it has been Ali Quli Mirza who has relentlessly been at the forefront of most episodes. Let's give credit where it is due - the Halla Bol concept seems to have worked with bringing in older contestants.
