The FMN Ratings for May 2025 have arrived — and surprise, surprise — Anupamaa continues her unbreakable winning streak. Rupali Ganguly didn’t just play the most loved character, she also topped the personality charts. Abhira and Armaan emerged as the hottest on-screen couple of the month, while the character Anupamaa reigned supreme among fiction leads. From actors to shows, Star Plus practically issued a monopoly notice this month, sweeping every major category like it was a walk in the TRP park. Let’s dig into the data that kept viewers glued to their sofas in May.
Top 5 TV Personalities of the Month
Rupali Ganguly stood tallest in the TV personality arena with a score of 743, blending experience, emotional depth, and screen presence in a way few can. Samridhii Shukla, currently a rising force, followed closely at 742, showing that her momentum is very real.
Ayesha Singh grabbed the third spot with 740, proving she’s no fleeting favourite. Right behind her was Rohit Purohit at 733, bolstered by the ongoing buzz around Armaan. Pranali Rathod claimed the final spot in the top five with 722, holding her own among some serious contenders.
Top 5 TV Jodis of the Month
In Jodi-land, Abhira & Armaan (Samridhii Shukla & Rohit Purohit) were the clear favourites, topping the list with a mighty 739. The duo’s mix of chaos, charm, and complication hit just the right nerve with audiences.
Coming in close were Sachin & Sailee (Kanwar Dhillon & Neha Harsora) at 736, oozing sweetness and sincerity. Mannat & Vikrant (Ayesha Singh & Adnan Khan) clocked 731, bringing high-stakes romance to the table. Aniruddh & Jhanak (Krushal Ahuja & Hiba Nawab) and Prem & Raahi (Shivam Khajuria & Adrija Roy) took the fourth and fifth spots respectively, showing that even lesser-hyped jodis can spark big love.
Top 5 Fictional Characters of the Month
Let’s be honest — this category should’ve just been renamed “The Anupamaa Show”. The character Anupamaa, played by Rupali Ganguly, topped the list with 6.14, her presence almost spiritual at this point. Abhira (Samridhii Shukla) wasn’t far behind with 6.08, continuing to anchor the Yeh Rishta empire. Sailee (Neha Harsora) came in third at 6.04, rising fast as a crowd favourite. Armaan (Rohit Purohit) took the fourth spot with 5.98, his moody charm continuing to grip the audience. And at number five, Sachin (Kanwar Dhillon) scored 5.81, showing there’s room for quiet strength in the limelight.
Top 5 TV Shows of the Month
If you’re wondering who rules TV, the answer is once again Anupamaa. With a thundering 818 rating on Star Plus. Close behind was Udne Ki Aasha, also on Star Plus, with 817. Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai took third with a solid 814, still holding strong. Mangal Lakshmi from Colors TV was the only non-Star Plus entry at No. 4 with 808, proving there’s still room for fresh contenders. Rounding out the top 5 was Advocate Anjali Awasthi with 806, giving courtroom intensity a primetime facelift.
Anupamaa and Rupali Ganguly remain untouchable, while the pairing of Abhira and Armaan has become a cultural mainstay. Samridhii Shukla is comfortably straddling the line between rising star and reigning queen. Star Plus, meanwhile, might want to consider renaming itself “TRP Central.” If June brings a shake-up, it’ll need to be seismic. Until then, the usual suspects are wearing their crowns just fine.
