The first ever daily soap Hum Log, Buniyaad and Nukkad and mythological dramas like Ramayan (1987-88) and Mahabharat (1989-90), Shaktimaan, India’s First Superhero, attracted millions of Indians to Doordarshan. The 80s was the era of Doordarshan when it became integral part of living room of middle class in India with popular shows like Hum Log (1984), Buniyaad (1986-87) and comedy shows like Yeh Jo Hai Zindagi (1984). Everyday I got mails from my readers that how to watch blah blah blah old doordarshan serial online.Ī quick recap of old Doordarshan Serials (via Wikipedia) Now a days it is not so popular in urban areas but its old serials are still some of hot search items on internet. In India, Doordarshan is the number one TV channel. Still in this world of huge competition among differnet TV, Doordarshan is one of the largest broadcasting organizations in the world in terms of the infrastructure of studios and transmitters.
At the outset, there is no element of mystery in the serial but just a re-construction of the crime and how the culprit is finally brought to book.Doordarshan is the public television broadcaster of India and a division of Prasar Bharati, which is a Government of India enterprise. The series was written by Mitali Bhattacharya and directed by Ravi Ojha. The script of this serial is original however there are several influences take, like the very famous Karamchand, American Detective TV serial, Columbo( because this character also has untidy appearance and clumsiness like the depicted KC character in Saboot).The lead character KC looks very messy, clumsy however the lurk behind the facade is a razor sharp mind. This kind of approach to deal with such detective serial won many viewers. So, the viewers have to really apply their mind and it is a very intelligent format. The character KC's messy appearance and low-key manner misleads the criminal into not taking her seriously, which is what leads to his or her getting caught eventually.
Anita Kanwar of Buniyaad fame returned from a six year gap played the lead role of CBI officer and Chief of Homicide, “Inspector KC” in this serial. It was later telecasted on Doordarshan as “Inspector KC”.
It was produced by Cinevistaas and telecast on STAR plus during 1998-99. The importance is on the gradual sorting out of clues by the detective in the later part of the serial. Saboot is an Indian crime series based on howdunit format (where the murderer is revealed to the viewers at the beginning).
