Doordarshan more precisely known as ‘Door ke Darshan’. The Indian broadcast service which has remained truly untouched with the way it was presented. The look and feel has been the same today, though the content and presentation has upgraded from the past.
Remember the good old days when cable, dish and satellite TV were not the part of our daily routine. Doordarshan was the only available source of information, education and entertainment. Some things never change like the news reader of doordarshan or the duration of brakes. It’s just the same. The only channel you could see after years with some changes and would feel like “Aaj bhi waise hi hai”.
Have a look at the video clip; this is a sequence from a program called gali gali sim sim one of my favorites on DD these days. Check the link.

the channel hasnt changed their style much.. especially the news.
there has been no difference at all though the faces may be new..
it always gives a warm "good old days" feeling watching this channel :-)
Atleast Darshan is existing.

There are tonnes of these oldies - goldies : ADs, DD programs (Alif laila / Tehkikaat / Chitraahaar ... those were the days!
yet it is not upgraded
ever in his whole journey from when start to now
but still it is useful when any other sports channel is not coming on TV during cricket matches and at that time i loved DOORDARSHAN
and also when cable then it is the only channel that coming and for timepass
its not bad

I can't remember the last time i watched something on doordarshan, seriously...
mujhe to aaj bhi friday ka chitrahaar yaad hai.
kya mast bachpan tha...
Gal... have stopped watching doordarshan long ago... but to telll you the truth... Old day Doordarshan was fabulous... in terms of content, message and everything.... I have my own share of grievances from the national broadcaster but one thing is for sure... DD has to live its role of public broadcaster and hence can not become Sony overnight... but again the effort to improve is also not there.... :)
Does it mean that Change is not always necessary for more profit, from a Marketing point of view?
Keshi.
yup those days were aweosme..no confusion what to watch or not..and as comfortably numb says ,the days of chandrakanta..I remember karuur singh :P..and jungle book!!
Waw , post on doordarshan . Ya they hv nt changed with time.
My fav prog fm DD were chandrakanta , alif-laila , rangoli , jungle book etc.
Gali gali sim sim is real cool program ( but this is indian version of sesame street , shown in USA ). I love all it's characters . Nicknamed one friend "chamki " :p
DD hasnt changed a bit though the faces and content has been upgraded, s is their style... but yes maybe that is why whenever u switch it on u r reminded of family, chai cuppas, togetherness and that one imp movie that no one would miss...
Hi, nice blog you have got. Passed through while browsing. Ya, DD is DD:). Welcome to my blog.:)
I got no TV 'here'.
And 'there' I get only free to air DTH channels, which is 80 % DD.
So DD rocks!
And its a really relaxing experience too!
Ahaa ! You brought me back to my childhood days :) Its been ages since I haven't watched Doordarshan... Leave apart DD.. I think its been more than 4 -5 month si have not watched TV at all :(
