Indian television’s first soap opera started in 1984 and created history. Telecast at primetime evening every week, it was believed that people would leave all their work to watch the episodes. Streets would be empty as ‘Hum Log’ played in almost every television in every household. All of its characters are still remembered. Be it Badki, Lallu, or Nanhe. With 156 episodes, it was the longest show on TV at the time it ended.
