A show like sath Phere is generating the most ratings on ZEE? That just says something about this channel.

saat phere is not only generating the most trps but has reached no 4 in india overall in terms after the 3 k soaps
kyunki kahaani and kasautii

i hope after the EMAET the show's format will go back to normal i.e. focused solely on singing...already the ratings are looking grim

yaar, another wild jump to the wrong conclusions? there are different ways to analyze:

1. compare c2005 with emaet- c2005 obviously had better ratings;

2. compare old sgmp with emaet- emaet has higher ratings. old sgmp hardly ever made it to the top 20 even in the best of times.

3. star plus has serials which "carry over" into and compete against the emaet time slots.

4. emaet is still amongst the top rated shows for zee, though saat phere is highest. but then, it's quite possible that saat phere wld have beaten out c2005 as well, given how much folks seem to like it. When was the last time you heard of a "serial" on zee beating out the serials on star plus. so that's intrinsic to saat phere, not a commentary on emaet.

5. emaet is perhaps just a "breather" between c2005 and a possible c2006. hard to sustain the climactic build-up and energy of c2005. for a "breather", it is still doing quite nicely if we look at trps. the channel has been able to carry on without incurring expenditures associated with new country-wide searches. so point is also look at return on investment. old sgmp had lousy ratings and probably the same expenses as emaet if you factor in the live band etc. Bad deal for the channel.

6. other channels have being revamping the music-based shows. old sgmp wld have dropped further without the switch to the new format- this one is an assumption on my part that the mkting people at all these channels are not exactly dumb- they cld see the trends and knew they had to do something to compete.

my conclusion- let's hold our wild horses😉

I think somehow CB got a logic here. EMAET is not a replacement of C2005 – it's basically a filler – before C2006 starts. It take lot's of management and planning to organize a show like C2005 and unlike Indian Idol SRGMP doesn't have 'sessions' – so if we consider EMAET is a filler show with the 2^nd tier artists – it's doing pretty well!

Comparison with old format of SRGMP is useless here – that format may have achieved more musical heights (that's arguable too😉) but never made it in TRP top list.

thx. in any case, i think we need to differentiate between what we like and what is good for the channel/ aam-public. i think if we make deductions on what is good for the channel based on how some of us here feel, we'll be going off-track. as example, look at all the polls we see here- these invariably mis-read public trends and opinions.

[fwiw, i personally prefer ghazal evenings in a nice place. c2005, emaet, old sgmp- these are just lazy sources of entertainment for me, and nothing much to write home about in musical terms]
