“The future of India depends upon the choices of the urban and rural population. While rural crowd likes watching daily soaps and sports like wrestling, the urban crowd is attracted towards talent search, reality shows and only one major sport that is Cricket. Inspite of different choices what stays common for both the classes is likeability towards drama. High drama content in television gives high TRP ratings.” Said Mr. Partho Dasgupta.
“The economics is majorly reliant on advertising and rich content.” Added Ajit Mohan.
“If Distribution is king; Content is queen and the future of TV is very bright for sure”, concluded Raj Nayak.
