The daily struggles of an Indian middle-class family, their relationships and ideology made for a good watch and some of us might even remember some scenes from the show.
This show lasted nearly 17 months and is said to be the first drama to be aired on television. Based on RK Narayan’s novel, ‘Malgudi Days’ is one such show that will be carved into our hearts for the longest time possible and even if we watch it after 5 years, it will still bring a smile to our faces. “Ta na na Tana nana na” the mere tune takes us down the memory lane and makes us feel super nostalgic, recalling the celebrated show we watched in our growing years. So, let’s take a walk back to the golden history of television and relive the shows that made our childhoods so special.
And now all your favourite shows are coming back with a bang as Doordarshan is all set to rerun them.Įarlier, Doordarshan announced the rerun of Shah Rukh Khan starrer ‘Circus’ and now a whole bunch of our favourites are making a comeback. For every 90s or even 80s kids, watching television was a pure joy and the credit can be given to some exceptionally brilliant shows like ‘Malgudi Days’, ‘Hum Log’ and ‘Fauji’.
Before shows like ‘Sasural Simar Ka’ where a family is constantly pestered by ghosts, supernatural beings and a f**king housefly – or a woman who happily washed her husband’s laptop with soap water – things were way better on television. If you prefer binge-watching shows online either on Netflix or Amazon Prime, because you are utterly bored of the daily shows that are aired on television – trust us, you are not alone.
