MUMBAI: With the citizens asked to stay indoors with the outbreak of the deadly coronavirus, the entertainment industry too has stopped functioning. Giving priority to the safety of the cast and crew, the shoot of television shows has been halted which has paved way for many popular shows returning to the television sets.

Iconic mythological shows like Ramayan, Mahabharat, Siya Ke Ram, Devon Ke Dev Mahadev amongst others have returned to make our lockdown special.

We recently broke the news about Ramanand Sagar’s Shri Krishna returning on TV and DD Ramayan will be aired on Star Plus from 4 May.

Now, we hear that  Mahabharat which is currently aired on DD will soon telecast on Colors.

Yes, viewers can again rejoice watching both Ramayan on Star Plus and Mahabharat on Colors.

Both the shows have been game changer for DD during the lockdown phase. Ramayan has created history by becoming the world's most-watched show on April 16 with 77 million viewers.

It will be interesting to see if Ramayan and Mahabharat prove game changer for Star and Colors as well.
