Zee’s Kumkum Bhagya BEATS Sony’s KBC, Alarm Bells Ringing For Super Dancer 2

In a shocking turn of events, Zee TV’s Kumkum Bhagya has beat Amitabh Bachchan’s Kaun Banega Crorepati to clinch the No. 1 spot in Week 43 (October 21-27). This development is rather surprising since the iconic quiz show has been on the top spot ever since it premiered on August 28.

Furthermore, Super Dancer 2, which had plummeted last week to No.10, showed marginal improvement and acquired the 9thspot. The show has not been performing as well as the last season and more often than not, is restricted to the bottom of the barrel. We had told you that Muskaan and Mishti deserve to win this show as other contestants seem to be performing mere ‘stunts’.

While this Kumkum Bhagya spin off dropped, it was a good week for Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah and Shakti – Astitva Ke Ehsaas Ki, for both registered an improved performance.

The surprise element this week is Zee TV’s Piyaa Albela. The show, modern retelling of the love story of Menaka and Vishwamitra, has been on air since March this year, but it is the first time it has found a spot in Top 10.
