Shahrukh Khan's 'Zor Ka Jhatka' show rejected on the boob tube

Shahrukh Khan's 'Zor Ka Jhatka' show rejected on the boob tube: It’s Shahrukh Khan who has got Zor Ka Jhatka, that too for the second time on boob tube.

The television show Zor Ka Jhatka hosted by Shahrukh and shot in Argentina has been getting dismally low TRPs ever since it went on air on Feb 1. It’s TVR on the opening day was 2.6, which is shockingly low for any show hosted by a major Bollywood star on TV. But more shocking is how the show’s TVR has dipped steadily to the range of 1.3 to 0.8.

This is the second time Shahrukh has faced rejection on the small screen after his show Kya Aap Panchvi Paas Se Tez Hai flopped three years ago.

In fact, Zor Ka Jhatka has got even lesser viewership than Rakhi Ka Insaaf.

Some feel that Shahrukh has not fully committed himself to the show. He did not fly to Argentina to shoot with the contestants but rather shot his portions in a studio. His shots were added to the Argentina shoot on the editing table to give the impression that he was on location.

Madhuri Dixit's Jhalak Dikhla Jaa beats Shahrukh Khan's Zor Ka Jhatka

Madhuri Dixit's Jhalak Dikhla Jaa beats Shahrukh Khan's Zor Ka Jhatka:  There was not enough zor in Shahrukh Khan’s Zor Ka Jhatka as it was trumped by Madhuri Dixit’s Jhalak Dikhla Jaa 4.

With Madhuri on board the reality dance show Jhalak Dikhla Jaa is having its best season ever, and the show had opened with TRP rating of 5.6, in comparison Shahrukh’s Zor Ka Jhatka: Total Wipe Out has opened with a mere 2.6 ratings.

What’s more Big B’s Kaun Banega Crorepati season 4, had opened with 5.4 TRP and Salman Khan's Bigg Boss 4 had TRPs of 3.6 on day 1.

Reportedly, Shahrukh Khan is being paid Rs.20 crore to host the show, and the channel produces are confident about the show being a smash hit.

If the producers have their way, we may even see the witty SRK entertaining us with his one liners in season 2 of the show.
