Too Long; Didn't Read
The lockdown in place here in India to prevent the community spread of COVID-19. Most of the last programming used to end by 11PM or 12AM midnight to start at 5AM next morning. Ramayana, Shaktimaan, Mahabharata etc. used to be blockbuster shows as the story telling was brilliant. People who couldn't afford to buy a TV would sit at their neighbour's house either to watch a specific programme or a cricket match. Village panchayats used to have TVs and they used to play it at the village centre during specific hours for the villagers to watch certain programmes related to farming, news and current affairs.
