StarPlus has a wider reach in northern belt…in southern states Star regional channel has more presence like StarVijay…But I feel out of all Sun group holds major share of viewership in southern states…southern states have their own set of regional channels so StarPlus has little presence…
As far as fan following is concerned southern actors focus more on work than getting traction on SM…whatever they get is organic through their work they don’t put any extra effort or employ PR tools to create FDs in SM…some ITV actors from the north have more fan following than southern movie superstars that doesn’t mean they are more popular…
FDs help actors in getting online publicity, ads, MVs and maybe shows or movies in OTT platform…warna I don’t see FDs can do much in ITV…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 doesn’t matter who the actor is…
Neil & Ayesh, Shumbhul & Gashmeer/Farman are doing better than Harshad and Pranali…so that’s FDs contribution in ITV…
