StarPlus has a wider reach in northern beltā¦in southern states Star regional channel has more presence like StarVijayā¦But I feel out of all Sun group holds major share of viewership in southern statesā¦southern states have their own set of regional channels so StarPlus has little presenceā¦
As far as fan following is concerned southern actors focus more on work than getting traction on SMā¦whatever they get is organic through their work they donāt put any extra effort or employ PR tools to create FDs in SMā¦some ITV actors from the north have more fan following than southern movie superstars that doesnāt mean they are more popularā¦
FDs help actors in getting online publicity, ads, MVs and maybe shows or movies in OTT platformā¦warna I donāt see FDs can do much in ITVā¦I have seen shows of actors having the biggest FDs flop..for ITV and movies the content, the characters and the actors have to click with the viewers, it doesnāt matter who the actor isā¦
Neil & Ayesh, Shumbhul & Gashmeer/Farman are doing better than Harshad and Pranaliā¦so thatās FDs contribution in ITVā¦
