TRP ratings are a fickle game. One week, a show might be
making its presence felt on the leader board and in the next, might drop to the
bottom of the barrel. Something similar happened to The Kapil Sharma Show.

Making a roaring entry into the Top 10 -- for the second
time – was Salman Khan-hosted Bigg Boss, Season 10. The first time it acquired

The curiosity as to who among Manveer Gurjar, Bani Judge,
Lopamudra Raut or Manu Punjabi will be declared the winner, kept the audiences

At this point, the makers should look at introducing an interesting twist.
