Soon the re-telecast of Mahabharat and other serials like Shaktiman and Byomokesh Bakshi was\u00a0announced. But none of the serials matches the popularity of Ramayan, reported by OpIndia<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n

Doordarshan aired the legendary TV series Ramayan, which was started by the state broadcaster on popular demand amid the nation wide lockdown, enforced in order to contain the Corona Pandemic in the country. The epic series gained a remarkable viewership on the very first day of its telecast.<\/p>\n\n\n

Soon the re-telecast of Mahabharat and other serials like Shaktiman and Byomokesh Bakshi was\u00a0announced. But none of the serials matches the popularity of Ramayan. While it is understood that for the majority of the people in India, the Ramayan serial not only has a spiritual connection, but also a deep nostalgia of the late 80s, when there was no internet, no cable TV and life was much different, but the Ramanand Sagar creation seems to have much of the 21st century born \u2018millennials\u2019 hooked too.<\/p>\n\n\n

Memes, jokes and discussion of the TV serial are flooding the social media. The language, the style of conversation presented in the serial and the scenes are being shared widely.<\/p>\n\n\n

However, while Lord Ram is the hero of Ramayan, when it comes to memes, it is \u201cBhrata Laxman\u201d <\/a>who is stealing the show. The role of Laxman was played by Sunil Lahiri, and his facial expressions, dialogues and style are winning hearts now all over again, over three decades after he acted in that role. Here are some hilarious ones: <\/p>\n\n\n
