Survey on Indian Television Industry-NYU Poly

Hi Folks,

I am a graduate student at NYU-Poly, doing research on the representation of women in Indian television, and am currently looking at the occupation of the female characters shown in the Hindi serials.

I would really appreciate it if people on this list could send me a few brief responses with the names of some of the key characters in this show and the occupation they hold (there can be more than one female character from a single serial) –even the serials which used to be aired in the 90s are welcome. The kinds of details I am looking for are as follows:

Name of the serial:

Name of the director:

Name of the female character:

Actress playing the role:

Her occupation:

Any interesting details about her work

(such as is she good at her job, is she ambitious, is her work environment good)

Thanks,

Tammy.
