Nostalgic Stuff


Remember the good (?) ol' days when our air space (now cable space) was monopolised by Doordarshan and a hundred and one (I know there are more) channels were not jostling for TRP (eyeball) ratings? Remember the mesmerising Bharat Ek Khoj /Discovery of India? Recall the Ek Chidiya, Anek Chidiya... animated film? I know you do and so do I.

Surfing through the net, I stumbled across them. The soundtrack of Bharat Ek Khoj and the Ek Chidiya, Anek Chidiya video. Some good souls had posted them on their blogs and I'm simply passing it on.

Bharat Ek Khoj

No, some of us Americans have to stay home to make those cool weapons that kill so well in Irag and Afgahnastan. ;)

BOOM!

Thanks for posting the "Bharat Ek Khoj" and "Ek, Anek, aur Ekta" stuff. I wish you (or I) knew where I could buy the Bharat Ek Khoj DVDs... .

I do think that the days of Doordarshan's monopoly were, in many ways, better than these days of 24 hour cable tripe.

(I have now downloaded the stuff... perhaps I shall post them on my own webpage.)

Cheers!
