Indian Idol 4 getting good revenues
.
Full Details : TOP 30 Participants of Indian Idol Season 4 . Sony’s Indian Idol has returned for the fourth season. According to TAM, its opening episode scored a TVR of 4. It has also got ten sponsors each paying up to Rs 4 crore for the association. Ramya Ramamurthy finds out if the reality show will help Sony get the number-three spot back — Colors displaced it and by a big margin. Here is a transcript of Ramya Ramamurthy’s comments on WEBNSN’sStory Board. Sony has dropped down to the fourth spot for the past four weeks — it needs a hit and it needs it now. And the channel is hoping that the fourth season of the reality talent hunt show Indian Idol will step up to the job. Indian Idol’s start has been promising. With 10 sponsors have signed on and the opening show notching a rating of 4, upto Rs 30 crore of revenue will be made from this show. Sony is hoping that while [Salman Khan-anchored] Dus Ka Dum delivered ratings, Indian Idol will do that — and even more show Sony the money. TOP Indian Reality Shows For now the channel that is giving not Sony but Zee and Star Plus a run for their money is Viacom 18’s Colors. It has jumped to the third spot with shows like Khatron Ke Khiladi and Big Boss 2 that created buzz around the channels. I'd like to correct the perception that we've spent too much on the channel. We have gained up to some Rs 30 crore in terms of marketing and media. So I think the money we invested in Khatron Ke Khiladi and Bigg Boss is marketing and production investment. More importantly, it has driven viewers to our fiction offerings. They will sustain our momentum.” While media buyers say Colors' ratings may see a correction going forward, the channel is depending on its long-term content pipeline to deliver. And content has made all the difference... Just three months back, [channels] 9x, Sony and NDTV Imagine were battling it out for the third spot. But now the flux has moved to the top three channels that have all grown aggregate ratings while the other channels have stagnated. But in a genre, where you are only as good as your last hit show, every channel is hoping the next show will be the one! |
