Kapil Sharma Beats Sunil Grover In The Ratings Race, But Show Continues To Nosedive

IANS, 16 Apr, 2017 12:13 PM
    TV star Kapil Sharma seems to have faced a setback with Sunil Grover’s exit from the show post his inflight fight with him.
     
    The popular chat show does not figure in the top ten best rated shows in Hindi entertainment (non-fiction) category, according to the latest data from the Broadcast Audience Research Council (BARC), the real-time TV rating points measurement system in India. 
     
    Kapil, however, seems to be winning the race against Sunil as his show fared better than Indian Idol Grand Finale, where the latter made a guest appearance.

    Sunil quit Kapil’s show after an inebriated Kapil allegedly assaulted and abused him while they were on a flight. Sources have confirmed that Sunil is not returning to the popular TV chat show, The Kapil Sharma Show. In fact, he has reportedly been signed for another show on the same channel (Sony TV).
