Friday is that one day of the week which is synonymous with movie premieres. And now even our television industry is not far behind. Take today's Friday the 18th for instance when not one, not two but three mega budget and much talked about shows hit the airwaves - Sahara One's Biggest Loser Jeetega (9.30 pm), Star Plus' Star Voice Of India (10pm) and Star One's The Great Indian Laughter Challenge 3 (9pm). Interestingly this trio falls in the 'reality genre' which means there is competition to grab eyeballs not only within themselves but also from the other existing shows falling in the same time bracket. We are talking about Sony's Indian Idol (9pm) and Zee's Sa Re Ga Ma Challenge 2007 (10pm). So henceforth weekends will witness a 'real' reality race on the TRP chart!!!
