Re: All time favorite drama
Yes they were and also were in a greater demand than the Bollywood movies as only crap was being dished out in the eighties and the nineties from the Hindi film industry. Also unlike the dramas being played out on the Indian television wherein just to make money out of ads week after week, the story meanders and gets boring after a while, the Ptv dramas those days had tight scripts and great performances. I feel that the Dhoop Kinare inspired drama currently being aired on Sony also would go the same way. Anyway there is no comparison between the two.
