A major part of its success can be attributed to its programming structure. It won’t be wrong in saying that the channel carefully handpicks its shows after putting a great deal of thought into each of its segments so they can maximise the viewership on it. By clearly defining their USP and working around it to expand its TG, the channel has emerged to be a major player in the field of music and young entertainment. Most of its shows are centred on the daily life and dilemmas of high school and college students and its music segments churn out the latest grooving hits.

One of Channel V’s most popular shows Gumrah recreates true teenage crime stories. The reason for its popularity lies in its relatable content. Most youngsters find themselves in situations that are portrayed in the show except that the events in the show end up taking a sinister turn. Gumrah by highlighting the telltale signs of such deceptive events have found a strong space among youngsters and their parents alike. The parents obviously wanting their children to be aware of such manipulation have become avid followers of the show and further encourage their children to watch it.

The channel has taken this show come social initiative further by launching a book on it penned by the bestselling author Ira Trivedi. The book was launched on January 2016 by Chetan Bhagat. The show’s popularity and thought provoking content have earned it the distinction of emerging as the first Indian tele-series to be adapted into a book. The purpose of the book remains the same as the show, that is, to inform youngsters on how to save themselves from harm should they find themselves in a precarious situation; however the book just provides a different format to consume the content from.Advertising on Channel V
