The effect of the Coronavirus lockdown is clearly visible on the TV industry. Thousands of workers working in the TV industry have been badly affected due to the lockdown. These people are unable to get food for two times. This is the reason why TV producers are now seeking help from the government. Talking about this, JD Majethia has told, 'The producers of TV are proposing to start shooting from May 4 before the government. The start of work in the film city will reduce the troubles of many people. The workers working daily are completely dependent on the TV industry. They have no other means of earning.
Apart from 'Mahabharata' and 'Ramayana', these TV shows also got viewers' love
JD Majithia said, 'We hope that the government will take note of our point. Everyone's health and other needs can be taken care of on the set. If we are allowed to start work, then we will get the film city sanitized first and only then the work will start. Our initiative can help a lot of people.' JD Majithia is the chairman of TV Wing of the Indian Film Aid TV Producer Council, which you have also seen in the serial 'Khichdi'. Due to the coronavirus lockdown, shooting of all the serials has come to a halt, which is why all the channels are re-telecasting their old shows one after the other.

Doordarshan has also returned shows like Ramayana, Mahabharata, Vyomkesh Bakshi, Circus and Shaktimaan. Due to which old shows are dominated on television these days. Mythological show Ramayana, which is being re-telecasted on Doordarshan, has been getting a lot of love from the audience from day one. This is the reason why Ramayana has defeated all the shows in the case of TRP. To keep Doordarshan's TRP, the channel is coming with shows like Uttar Ramayana and Chhota Bheem. Due to this step of Doordarshan, the rest of the TV channels are suffering a lot. The TRP of these TV channels will not improve until the shooting of the shows starts again.
