After Ramayan And Mahabharat, Shriman Shrimati, Chanakya And Shaktimaan CONFIRMED To Return On TV

In times of quarantine, Doordarshan is making our lives easy. While we are already bored watching all the web-shows that OTT platforms are throwing at us, Doordarshan is making us drive down the memory lane by re-running all the old shows that once made our television viewing experience super special. After mythological shows like Ramayan and Mahabharat, the Central Government has planned to bring back a few more old shows on Television. As per the latest reports, shows like Shriman Shrimati, Chanakya and Shaktimaan are making a comeback.

In a statement, the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting said that Doordarshan will be retelecasting five shows — Chanakya, Upanishad Ganga, Shaktimaan, Shriman Shrimati, and Krishna Kali, as reported by news agency PTI. While we were aware of Shaktimaan show with Mukesh Khanna as the lead re-running on TV, the news of Shriman Shrimati, Chanakya, Krishna Kali and Upanishad Ganga has come as a surprise. The shows are supposed to make a comeback from the first week of April.

Apart from these shows, reports also suggest that Shah Rukh Khan's television show Circus will also make a comeback on TV. Even Detective Byomkesh Bakshi will be re-run on Doordarshan. The announcement of this detective based show coming back was made by Doordarshan on its official Twitter handle.

We can't wait for these shows to make a comeback. Social media exploded when Ramayan and Mahabharat's episodes re-ran on Doordarshan and we are expecting the same result for other shows.
