Speaking on why the channel chose to announce its new content almost two weeks after it began airing, Ashish Patil, GM MTV India & VP Creative & Content explained, "It would have been quite insensitive on our part to announce something fun in the midst of the terror attacks. Also, we thought we could speak about it after giving it some time to settle in and watch the response."

The channel claims it has seen a 30% hike in viewership, citing recent TAM figures.
