Some people may not believe this, but highly placed sources in the Television industry are shouting it loud and clear that there is some sort of TRP management going on. While the ratings are giving by an industry body like BARC (Broadcast Audience Research Council) India, which is regulated by TRAI, rumours are coming that some ratings are getting tempered.
Recently a big star’s film got very awkward TRPs on the small screen though that will not be the case for real considering the star’s image. At the same time, another hopeless film got better TRPs. Stunned by the happening, the bigwigs of the entertainment channel immediately launched an internal inquiry into this.
They found that films that are acquired by one particular group are getting superior TRPs no matter how worst those films are, but films that are brought to the channel by another group are getting crushed. It is obvious that one group is managing to get fake TRPs, high for their films and low for others films, within the same channel.
We hear that the channel’s bosses are stunned by this happening but they haven’t questioned anyone about this. Because if they question that particular group, maybe the group will join hands with rival channels and outshine the whole channel’s TRPs with their ‘Fake TRP Scheme’. Is this something bodies like BARC and TRAI look at seriously? Definitely!!
