Quite low compared to last year which garnered above 4.1 TRP in launch

Because the lineup was pretty strong last season with many popular TV/movie personalities, but this season the lineup is quite thandaa...except Minissha/Upen/Arya/Sukirti ..the rest are not very popular.

So obviously the TRPs will suffer. It'll suffer more in the coming weeks as the season is very boring.

Colors as a Channel has been getting consistently low GVTs since a few months now..far less than the trps it had last year. So in that respect..a trp of 3.6 is relatively good..less than last year but good by its current standards
