Coronavirus: Doordarshan to retelecast Ramayan after ‘public demand’ from Saturday

Ramanand Sagar’s Ramayan and B.R. Chopra’s TV show Mahabharata were one of eth most popular TV shows of the golden era of the 90s. When these TV shows used to air, people used to stay in their homes to watch them, the streets used to be deserted. People used to watch these shows by taking off their slippers and shoes. Not just this, but they also used to offer flowers and garlands on their television to seek blessings. These two shows, which have been gloriously written in the history of TV, could never be erased. Today, when the streets are deserted due to the coronavirus lockdown and people are forced to stay in their homes, the demand for these shows to be retelecasted on TV arose on social media.
