The pecking orders of three genres—English movies, infotainment and kids—changed in Week 35 with the top three channels in each of the genres seeing a shuffle.
English movie channels
In the English movie genre, Sony Pix moved up to No. 2. A similar move was seen in the kids and infotainment genres where Cartoon Network and National Geographic also moved up a spot respectively.
As per BARC data for the week ended 4 September, Movies Now held on to its leadership in the English movie genre after seeing a jump in viewership.
Meanwhile, previous week’s No. 2 channel Star Movies was the only channel among the top three in the English movie genre to see a dip in ratings during Week 35. Thus, it slipped to No. 3, while Sony Pix managed to come second.
Top five movies
Unlike the previous week, Week 35 had a mix of movies on various movie channels. Interestingly, Sony Pix, which saw a rise in viewership, had no movie in the list during the week.
The top spot once again went to Movies Now for its airing of ‘Fast and Furious 6’. Star Movies took second place with ‘The Mummy’.
Zee Studio attained the third spot on the chart by virtue of ‘How to Train Your Dragon’, while Star Movies was back to take the fourth spot with the movie ‘Cars’.
Movies Now grabbed the fifth spot by airing ‘Modern Times’.

The pecking order of the kids channels also changed in Week 35, with Cartoon Network seeing a surge in ratings that propelled it to the second spot.
Meanwhile, sister channel Pogo saw a drop in viewership, which made it slip to the third position.
Nick continued to grow in terms of week-on-week viewership and strengthened its numero uno position in the genre.
Infotainment
Once again, National Geographic moved up to the No. 2 spot in the infotainment genre on the back of improved ratings.
History TV18 saw a big drop in viewership during the week, which pushed it down to the third spot.
Nevertheless, genre leader Discovery also witnessed a drop in its ratings during the week.
