	DoorDarshan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The eighties was the era of Doordarshan with soaps like Hum Log (1984), Buniyaad and mythological dramas like Ramayana (1987-88) and Mahabharat (1988-89) glued millions to DoorDarshan.
		Other popular programs included Hindi film songs based programs like Chitrahaar and Rangoli and crime thrillers like Karamchand (starring Pankaj Kapoor) and Byomkesh Bakshi.
		Now more than 90 percent of the Indian population can receive DoorDarshan (DD1) programmes through a network of nearly 1400 terrestrial transmitters.

	ThinkCycle: Open Collaborative Design (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Abstract: Same Language Subtitling (SLS) for literacy is an extremely simple, economical, and powerful concept that recommends subtitling the lyrics of existing popular song-based programming on television in the 'same' language as the audio.
		After being implemented in Gujarat state for one year, the idea has now gone national with Chitrahaar in collaboration with Doordarshan, the national broadcaster.
		Other song-based national and regional programs may soon be shown with SLS with the aim of infusing everyday popular entertainment with incidental reading.

		As far as I can remember, there were only a handful of programs related to films and their ilk.
		There was the much awaited songs program, Chitrahaar, the Sunday evening movie, Saturday evening Showtheme (after which would follow my favorite program "Vikram aur bethaal" - remember that one?) and of course the incomparable Sunday morning Rangoli, with the ethereal beauty Neesham Singh wooing the viewers with her choice collection of songs.
		Give such a impoverished diet from DD, it was but natural that people lapped up all that AIR had to offer.

		Tetapi ia, dan hampir semua temannya di satu desa di Gujarat, rajin menonton televisi, terutama untuk menonton telenovela Chitrahaar favoritnya.
		Chitrahaar dipakai sebagai alat karena telenovela ini sangat populer, mempunyai rating tinggi, sehingga diputar dalam jangka waktu yang cukup lama di India.
		Setiap kali lagu-lagu dalam film itu diputar, maka otomatis akan muncul subtitle dalam bahasa Hindi, --yang berganti warna setiap kali berganti kata, dan seorang instruktur membantu mengartikan kata per kata dalam syair-syair lagu tersebut, dan bersama-sama mengajak para penduduk desa untuk ikut membaca kata demi kata seiring lagu tersebut berjalan.

		Average ratings of Chitrahaar across India went up by 18% since SLS was added, making it a win-win solution for both social and commercial interests.
		Whether the popularity of SLS translates into literacy gains on a national level, as it did in Gujarat state, will only be known over time when the literacy skills of 12,500 early literate people across five states are re-tested independently by Nielsen's ORG-MARG.
		It is still too early to tell whether the Chitrahaar experiment results in any long-term impact on literacy rates.

		Television has taken off in a big way in this town; gone are the days when one has to be content with watching only the restricted telecast of the State owned Doordarshan (Prasar Bharati); the programmes aired were boring and dragging with the exception of 'Chitrahaar' which was aired every Wednesday night.
		But times have change now and the viewer has more choices; the television is now flooded with so many channel that one can go 'Channel Cruising' all night long.

		Approximately a decade later, MTV is a sophisticated Chitrahaar with a dash of panache (and inanity), essentially devoted to Hindi film music, films and film stars.
		It has successfully bowdlerised MTV’s conventional format and made music TV fun TV.
