Following the comeback made by Ramanand Sagar's Ramayan & BD Chopra's Mahabharat to the TV screens on Saturday, the demand for other old shows to be retelecasted grew, as people took to Twitter to make their suggestions.
The ever famous Ramayan & Mahabharat was reaired after a public demand as India remains under a 21-day lockdown in its battle against coronavirus pandemic. People across India were flooded with nostalgia as the two epics made a comeback and it, in turn, fuelled the demand for more shows such as Bournvita Quiz contest, Antakshari, Dekh Bhai Dekh, Shriman Shrimati, Malgudi Days, Office Office, Hip Hip Hurray, Movers & Shakers and many others to make a return.
