Kissan orange squash is a nice memory trigger

Kissan Orange squash was selling red hot in 1985-86, no wonder it was a big hit in App's college. There used to be this cartoon series Fraggle Rock which ran from 85 to May 86 on Saturdays 2PM. DD would start its Sat afternoon transmission at 1:45 beginning with Ghar Bahar, some program for housewives where 2 old ladies would sit and talk. It is hard to think of a more irritating program than that, more so because we were poor in Hindi, so we would run outside to play with the TV on. Those were endless 15 minutes for us kids who were eager to watch Fraggle Rock begin at 2pm. The show was always preceded by a Kissan Ad an featuring an old grandpa with a white beard enjoying samosas(so maybe that was for Kissan Sauce??). Once we hear the grandpa shout the praise of Kissan, we will run indoors knowing Ghar Bahar has ended.

Vikram's release is May 29 86, coinciding with the Mexico world cup.
