During the same time another tele serial created waves all over mainly in the upper middle class, it was Khandaan, a serial that brought to light the lives and its complexities of the upper class and their society. This serial brought in wonderful actors like Sushma Seth, Vinod Nagpal, Abhinav Chaturvedi, and others to lime light. I couldn't frequent these episodes as TV came to my house later, but would always take a glimpse of the episodes whenever I could at my neighbours. A program that dealt with the lives of common man their daily problems, their smiles and sorrows slowly spread to its viewers. I think the concept of a tele serial came into existence with this. Nanhe, Chhutki, Barki, Lallu, Dadaji, Basesar Ram became household names. The characters came live and entered the hearts of millions straight out of the small screen. It was sometime in early 80s a new variation of TV program started to play by the name of HumLog and in few episodes time became a craze and a talk of the nation. So my list would be a recollection of some beautiful programs that were telecasted on Doordarshan that laid the foundation for the new genre of programs that we see today. Our TV got plugged to the cable much later, during some Football WorldCup matches as it was telecasted only in StarSports or some other cable channel. My memories trace back to the days of Doordarshan and a few years later to DD Metro, although the cable wire did come in the late 80s but had not spread like an epidemic, at least it did not enter our house. It was a big no-no but to my surprise later it had been my parents who had insisted on me watching a particular program on the TV, may be it was this time when the idiot box lost some of its idiocy and turned a new leaf to become a bit intelligent. TV entered our drawing rooms much later than it did for my friends, as my parents being strict disciplinarians considered TV to be cause for distraction to my studies. I think this is true for any sort of addiction the realization comes much later to its inception.

I can't recollect when I was introduced to the idiot box or which was the first program that I saw on the TV but soon I realized that I had got hooked to the small screen and was addicted to it.
