After
a
huge
demand
to
revive
popular
90s
shows
poured
in
on
social
media,
Doordarshan
announced
the
re-run
of
iconic
shows
-
Ramayan
and
Mahabharat.
This
took
place
as
the
entire
nation
is
currently
under
a
21-day
lockdown
due
to
the
coronavirus
pandemic.
The
situation
has
also
resulted
in
the
shooting
of
current
TV
shows
coming
to
a
standstill
with
no
new
fresh
episodes
to
be
aired
on-screen.
However,
the
overwhelming
response
garnered
by
the
re-run
of
the
iconic
epics,
the
national
broadcaster,
Prasar
Bharati
also
started
airing
Shah
Rukh
Khan's
show
Circus
and
Rajit
Kapur's
Byomkesh
Bakshi.
And
now,
veteran
actor
Dalip
Tahil
has
expressed
his
desire
to
have
a
re-run
of
his
show
Buniyaad.
He
took
to
Twitter
to
share
a
black
and
white
still
from
the
show
and
wrote:
"Well,
since
we're
going
retro
with
#Mahabharat
&
#Ramayana,
could
we
also
request
for
reruns
of
#Buniyaad
on
@DDNational?
#80sshows"
(sic).
This
was
closely
followed
by
the
actor's
wish
coming
true.
The
official
handle
of
DD
National
has
announced
that
the
show
will
now
be
airing
every
day
at
5
pm
on
Doordarshan.
For
the
unversed,
Buniyaad
was
a
blockbuster
series
that
aired
on
Doordarshan
between
1986
and
87.
Directed
by
Ramesh
Sippy,
the
drama
shed
light
on
the
struggles
faced
by
a
family
during
the
1947
partition
of
India
and
its
subsequent
aftermath.
In
the
meantime,
Chanakya
and
Upanishad
Ganga
will
also
be
telecast
on
DD
Bharati
very
soon.
The
official
was
quoted
by
ThePrint
as
saying,
"The
scheduling
of
all
other
shows
is
being
planned
across
DD
National
and
DD
Bharati.
We
are
mindful
of
timings
and
important
news
breaks
on
DD
News
and
DD
India."
