dude, I spent a good 5months in paki last year and trust me atleat 75% watch them. We had more indian channels compared to paki or english. Maybe lack of channels could be a factor but o trust me theyyy love those never ending soap operas.
may be they do sum of them , i was talkin abt gals .. ..aunties do i know .
cant exactly disclose my exact line ov work , but im in media management n i know for sure that young educated gals dont .
sick indian soaps target audiences r rural, or uneducated, middle aged masses.
