Krishna :: Mahabharat :: Played by Nitish Bhardwaj This is the level of popularity of Arun Govil who played these charactes. Today, I am going to have a recap of some of the most popular Doordarshan characters who still have some space in our memories.Ĭlose your eyes and try to imagine Ram, you will definitely visualize Arun Govil as Ram. Those days, there was no choice, only one television channel – Doordarshan and a standard set of programs but the quality of programs was more superior to what we have today, hundreds of channels where either you have third grade reality shows, Saas bahu drama or news shows where everything is breaking news. However, its shows and characters always fascinated and mesmerized the people from my generation and that is still nostalgic about it. As Doordarshan was the only channel, remote controls were not the part of the living room. We used to wait whole day to watch our favorite TV serials. Do you remember the old Doordarshan characters whom you watched leaving all other important things, years or may be decades ago? Those days, Television was not available 24/7.
