Tamil Nadu state owned Podhigai channel continues to be the second most watched channel across the state next only to Sun TV, according to Television Rating (DART) survey. According to TAM survey, Podhigai, which used to have 0.9 to 1 TRP for its news bulletin in Tamil two years ago enjoys 3.46 TRP in small cities with a population up to 10 lakh. The popularity of the news bulletin maybe due to its 'no strings attached' tag when all other Tamil channels sport a 'political' colour. While commercials go to Sun TV, which has the maximum reach in the urban sector (82.1 per cent TV homes), advertisers don't prefer Podhigai. Dr Vethamany Senapathi, Doordarshan Kendra, Chennai, says, "Our revenue target for the fiscal year 2008-09 is Rs.10 crore'. Podhigai became the first Tamil channel to telecast the Tamil version of Richard Attenborough's Gandhi on August 15 this year.
