@JJKKL when did those things you mentioned became essential for the success of a TV serial. In late 90s when a woman called Ekta Kapoor started making serials. Before that there were Doordarshan serials. Finite ones. The ones which I saw in high school days and pre degree days. Phir wohi talaash, Neev, Samandar, Junoon, Shanti, Udaan( This is faint memory for me as I was in 2nd or third, but it was about a girl's dream to become an IPS officer), Tehkikaat, Reporter, Dekh Bhai Dekh, Talash, Manzil, Kshitij yeh nahin the list is endless. All beautiful stories. Much much progressive than what is dished out on Indian TV now.
For 10 years I had not watched an Indian TV show due to its regressive unrelatable content. It is only in the past 4 or 5 years I am watching some chosen few shows. And RKC at this point really takes me back to those good old days.
