Sun Tv used to telecast serials only in weekdays from Monday to Friday.Because of huge response for its serials, Sun TV team tried a new strategy to telecast serials on Saturdays also which was highly criticised by the youngsters. Annamalai, Metti Oli, Kasthuri, Kolangal, Naadhaswaram, Thirumathi Selvam were among the most watched serials telecasted in Sun Tv. Moreover, it is the common opinion of many people that the amount of domestic violence in the TV serials make a negative impact in common man's life and as a result, it spoils the Tamil culture.
