World Television Day: Manit Joura talks about his favourite old time show from the golden era of TV

Since 1996, every 21st of November is celebrated as World Television Day. We celebrate this day to recognize television as a key medium for educating, entertaining, directing and knowledge sharing, amongst others. To celebrate this day, Zee TV actor shares how television has impacted his life and how much importance ‘Television’ holds in his life. Actor Manit Joura from Kundali Bhagya shares his gratitude for the television medium. Here’s what he has to say…

Manit Joura, who plays the role of Rishabh in Zee TV's Kundali Bhagya mentioned, “First of all, I would like to wish everyone around the globe a very happy World Television Day. I think, in addition to the internet taking over in rural and urban cities, every maker is working on enhancing their content. The first time I watched a movie was on television when I was 5 years old, and every once in a while, my whole family used to sit together to watch a show. 

When I look back on those days, I remember how we usually waited for Friday and watched different movies on television like Ajooba, Mr India, etc. I grew up in a joint family watching comedy shows like Hum Paanch, it was the only time when everyone used to take out time to sit together. From fighting with siblings to watch television, to actually coming on a television show, I have indeed come a long way and being grateful for it is an understatement.”

Watch your favorite show Kundali Bhagya every Monday to Friday  at 9.30 pm, only on Zee TV
