RajTV's Bimbangal

[jaiganes]

Hi all!
Recently , I happened to chance upon RajTV's Bimbangal. This program presents detailed trivia about various constituencies in Chennai. Two weeks back it was my constituency, Perambur. It gave various amazing facts that I had never known, facts like Perambur had the first trade union in India . The program also covered the current state of all important landmarks in Perambur. I was simply dumbstuck at how little I knew of Perambur. Last week , it was Saidapet and yet again, the research done was extensive and the presentation was neat. This week they covered Tambaram. The program is aired between 7-30 to 8 AM IST. The program is compered by renowned TV compere Nirmala Periyasami. In recent times, this is the most exhaustive informative program I have seen in Thamizh TV channels. Hats off to Raj TV.

Jai,I have not seen this program but from what you say it looks like at last there is one which is not movie based&is not a mega serial.

yes cinefan. it is thankfully not a mega serial and it covers constituency by constituency roundup of thamizh nadu and chennai, detailing important places in each and every constituency with a lot of history. Good program. Is there a similar program on places in Karnataka/Bangalore?
