Telecast of Mythological Serials during Lockdown, 2020 on Doordarshan

 In 2020, Lockdown was announced by the Government because of Corona. During that time people were having a challenging time adjusting to the new routine at home as well as worrying about Corona. Doordarshan came up with this idea of airing Ramayan, Mahabharat, Shri Krishna, Chanakya, Upaanishad Ganga and many more old serials. That idea was very successful. Those legendary serials gave people the  moral and spiritual courage which was the need of the hour. People showered their love again to all those unforgettable serials. Doordarshan set new records of viewership during those days, such a moment of joy and pride for all of us!! Children who watched all those shows for the first time, had a great fun as well as received lessons about ethics from all the characters. We all had memorable time in our house, immersing again in these timeless shows. Thanks to the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting for this novel decision.

Jai Shri Krishna.

Happy Janmashtami: My favourite Actors who acted in the Role of Krishna-3:- Nitish Bharadwaj

Nitish Bharadwaj, who just made the role of Krishna like a Real-Life Character! I was immensely influenced by him during my childhood days! So always thought him as Krishna after watching Mahabharat. He was the Ultimate One in my eyes... I became interested to know about Lord Krishna only after watching his performance in Mahabharat. Even when I started my Blog-'Purnavataar', it was his picture only that came to my mind while thinking about the an image to include in the heading. My interest about Krishna was completely indebted to his performance in the role of the Lord. Wonderful work throughout the whole series, specially Shantidoot episode and most importantly in all the Geeta episodes!

Here I am ending the last part of my posts on the actors playing the role of Shri Krishna. Again I am stating that the headings of my posts are not any ranking or any special liking for any particular actor, it is just that I couldn't fit all the pictures and information in a single post, so decided to divide the whole Content into three posts.

Jai Shri Krishna

What Am I Doing These Days ?

Well I am watching 3 serials - RAMAYAN , MAHABHARAT , SHRI KRISHNA and writing , reading and discussing about them .

So why am I not posting in my blog ?

Really , I don’t have an answer .
I think , I was trying to post something from the world around me , but now a days I am too much involved in the world of RAM-KAURAV-PANDAV-KRISHNA --- so could not figure out a single topic to post here in last 14 days . indeed a great mistake on my part .

Ok, if not mistake , then we may call it indecisiveness on my part .

I am a great believer of the proverb — Better Late Than Never .
(i.e.— correct it as soon as you find out your fault – surprised ? it is my interpretation …! )

Following that , today I decided to post about the current state of my mind so that no communicate gap remains between me and you ( the readers of my blog ) .

I want to start with the recent KANS VADH episode of SRI KRISHNA serial –
For many days we were witnessing the terror of KANSA , but when KRISHNA killed him , in fact I also felt relaxed as an audience .

ARISTOTLE has said about tragedy that after a tragedy the feelings we undergo can be expressed as –CATHARSIS ( emotional cleansing , audience gets emotionally healed/ cleansed by experiencing the emotions which the principal characters go through .) .

MILTON says at the end of SAMSON AGONISTES –“calm of mind ,all passion spent “(after experiencing the turmoil of feeling , they have achieved tranquility of mind ) .

Truly , this state was achieved in MATHURA RAAJSABHA . In fact the same can be experienced after the battles of RAMAYAN and MAHABHARAT .

Though I can’t remember RAMAYAN very well , but I have seen the last episode of MAHABHARAT recently . Same was the experience in that case also – after all the drama , intrigue , war – when the peace is established in a state there is nothing greater than that .

The epics are a treasure of the lessons handed down to us by our ancestors . It is upto us how much we can learn and use them in our daily life . So I prefer to watch there serials rather than watching mindless daily soaps , most of which have neither any specific aim (conclusive ending ) nor lessons to teach us .

So this is my overall view on serials . I can still write a lot about it (why I love RAMAYAN , MAHABHARAT , SHRI KRISHNA ) , but that I am reserving to post in any future occasion .

With best wishes ,

WHAT AM I DOING ?

Yes that is a tough question for me . After coming back from my hometown i haven't yet started my regular/pending routined chores . Why ? I don't know . I am like that . Sometimes i just let myself go in whatever direction it (my mind ) wishes to take . Which means facing its consequences also !!! for instance , if i don't do the dusting regularly - we have to live in a slightly dirty home ; if i don't wash my clothes -then next time i have to wash double number of clothes....like that . I know everything , but still i am not feeling any urge to go and start my daily routine . Now a days i am doing only minimum amount of work which is needed to run a house smoothly.

Now why is it so ? (i.e. -what is the reason behind my this unique attitude?) There are 2 reasons , but one is related to the other .OK , No more of this playing with words . Actually since i wrote my last entry in this blog , i have been reading about MAHABHARAT and LORD KRISHNA . You may ask why have i suddenly started to read about these topics . The reason is , recently i was watching B.R. CHOPRA's MAHABHARAT on the television . Though i have watched the it before but i love this particular series . Gradually i stared an interest to know more about the stories , the characters - so i started to search the net to read more about it (the clashes , the lessons and so on ) .

The story regarding my interest in LORD KRISHNA is somewhat same but there is slight difference also . I REALLY loved the character of KRISHNA (who can forget NITISH BHARADWAJ ? ) when i watched the series , but recently i heard a number of talks about LORD KRISHNA . I was really surprised to find out so many special qualities in such a known character . It is becoming too overwhelming for me to express , but somehow i was awestruck by the symbolisms of LORD KRISHNA . From then on i am reading about HIM .

Now i guess you got an idea what am i doing all these days . May be i will start a blog on MAHABHARAT and LORD KRISHNA . I have not decided yet . Today i am becoming too much subjective while writing the blog . I hope you'll understand my present state of mind .

Now it is raining in delhi after a long time . I am going to watch the rain from my window. So it is bye for now .

With best wishes
