Television in India started as a small medium. With TV shows like ‘Hum Log’ and ‘Buniyyad’, people felt connected and learned to bond. Those were the days when shows were made for less money than films. Even shows like Ramanand Sagar’s Ramayana and BR Chopra’s Mahabharata were not mega budget shows in that period. But with the turn of the century, the budget and scale of Indian television shows increased, as did the big changes seen in films. You must have watched many shows on TV. You will love someone’s story and someone’s starcast. ‘Shanti’, ‘Junoon’, ‘Chitrahar’, ‘Shaktiman’, ‘Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi’, ‘Kyarek Dost, Kakem Vahu’, ‘Balik Vadhoo’, ‘Anupama’, ‘Taarak Mehta Ka’ Oolta Chashma’ , ‘Yeh Hai Mohabbatein’, ‘Kundli Bhagya’, ‘Sasural Simar Ka’ are many TV serials which people still remember. But do you know which is the most expensive show on TV?
