Khatron Ke Khiladi, Mahakali & Fear Files’ Sensational Debut, Make It To Top 5!
Week 30 (July 22-28) belonged to new entrants. Why do we say that, you ask? Well, because three shows which made a debut on July 22 clinched a spot in the Top 5.

Yes, believe it. Khatron Ke Khiladi, which had a slew of TV celebs such as Ravi Dubey, Nia Sharma, Manveer Gurjar, Karan Wahi and Lopamudra Raut among others facing fears, acquired the 2nd position in the said week.

Furthermore, Mahakali – Anth Hi Aarambh Hai was the 3rd most-watched in Week 30. The mythological television show is based on the story of Adi Shakti's incarnations, but focusing primarily on Goddess Mahakali and Goddess Parvati.  Mythological series are always a hit with viewers and the high ratings of the show are proof.

However, Kumkum Bhagya’s spin-off Kundali Bhagya acquired a respectable 5th spot.

Finally, to talk of The Kapil Sharma Show, the show plummeted to No. 28 in the week in question since the fresh episode did not air owing to Kapil Sharma’s failing health.
