INDIA, March 29, 2020 (Gadget Freeks): Ramayana is a television series which follows the events of the famous Hindu epic. The show aired on TV during the late 80s and gained immense popularity. At that time, it broke all viewership records for Indian television and became the most-watched Indian television series by a mile. The series was created by Ramanand Sagar and starred Arun Govil, Sunil Lahri, Deepika Chikhalia, and Dara Singh in pivotal roles. This series is a reservoir for social and moral values and sends out many positive messages that we all should listen to.
Since the country is going through a 21-day lockdown to contain the coronavirus, many people started tweeting demanding reruns of the popular television show. The production activities of television and films have been halted because of the global pandemic, and this has caused channels to replay old episodes. The Information and Broadcast ministry relented and Minister Prakash Javadekar announced that the show will return on TV from March 28, 2020. This is a brilliant decision because it will help reduce the stress of those who cannot venture outside during these trying times. Besides, airing this popular show might convince people to stay inside their homes and prevent the virus from spreading. The reruns of Ramayana will begin from March 28, and you can watch the show from 9 AM to 10 AM in the morning, or from 9 PM to 10 PM in the night.
