The show completed its 1 successful year on 21 July 2009

Currently, the channel is featuring a number of successful shows, such as Balika Vadhu, Jai Shri Krishna and Bigg Boss 3. The channels' most popular show, Balika Vadhu has been ranked in the TOP 5 shows of Indian television's TRPs charts, within 3 months of its launch.[3]
