The
occupancy
of
the
prime
time
slot
by
Bollywood
stars
like
Salman
Khan,
Amitabh
Bachchan
and
Akshay
Kumar
on
the
small
screens,
has
inflicted
a
war
for
TRP
rating
between
the
respective
channels.
Amitabh
Bachchan
hosted
show
Kaun
Banega
Crorepati
4
(airs
on
Sony)
has
taken
over
all
the
other
shows
by
marking
an
opening
with
6.2
TVRs
(television
viewership
ratings).
In
comparison
Salman
Khan
hosted
show
Bigg
Boss
4
on
Colors
had
an
opening
of
4.8
TVRs
and
Akshay
Kumar's
show
MasterChef
on
Star
Plus
fetched
2.6
TVRs.
Now,
it
is
definitely
clear
that
Kaun
Banega
Crorepati
4
has
taken
away
the
TRP
trophy
as
of
now.
Amitabh
Bachchan's
fan
followings
can
be
a
definite
reason
behind
it
but,
to
every
ones
surprise
Shiv
Sena
has
claimed
that
they
deserve
a
part
of
the
credit
for
the
success
of
KBC
over
Bigg
Boss.
"It's
a
triumph
for
the
Sena.
But
above
all,
it's
a
victory
of
nationalism.
People
used
to
watch
Bigg
Boss,
but
when
they
got
something
better
quality
wise,
they
shifted
to
it," stated
Sena's
spokesperson,
Bharat
Kumar
Raut.
Well
who
is
behind
the
success
of
KBC
4
will
remain
a
mystery.
But
the
fact
is
that
the
real
winners
are
the
viewers
who
get
to
see
some
of
their
superstars
of
Bollywood
everyday
on
the
small
screens.
