Many of these shows were immensely popular during their original run and continue to be remembered with affection and nostalgia even today.</div></span><p></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: large;">The television landscape of that era was very different from what we see now. There were only a handful of channels, and Doordarshan had a unique place in the hearts of Indian viewers. With limited entertainment options, families often gathered together in front of a single television set to watch their favourite programmes. More importantly, popular Doordarshan shows reached people across different age groups and sections of society.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: large;">Among the memorable programmes of that golden era was a delightful family sitcom that made audiences laugh by turning ordinary family situations into extraordinary comedy.Yes, we are talking about the much-loved serial “Dekh Bhai Dekh.”</span></p><h4 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: large;">Dekh Bhai Dekh: A Beloved 90s Doordarshan Classic</span></h4><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: large;">Dekh Bhai Dekh premiered in 1993 and quickly became one of the most remembered family comedy shows of its time.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: large;">The story revolved around the Diwan family, who lived together in an old bungalow in Mumbai. The show beautifully portrayed the relationships, disagreements, misunderstandings, everyday problems and humorous situations that arose when several generations of a family lived under one roof.</span></p><h4 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: large;">What made the serial special was its simplicity.</span></h4><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: large;">There were no complicated storylines or extraordinary situations required to make audiences laugh. Instead, Dekh Bhai Dekh found comedy in things that people encountered in their own homes—family arguments, misunderstandings, personal habits, domestic problems and the playful chaos of living together.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: large;">That familiarity helped viewers develop a strong emotional connection with the characters.</span></p><h3 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: large;">A Talented Cast That Made the Diwan Family Memorable</span></h3><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: large;">The show's popularity was also closely associated with its talented ensemble cast, which included Navin Nischol, Farida Jalal, Shekhar Suman, Sushma Seth and Bhavana Balsavar, among others.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: large;">Navin Nischol played Balraj Diwan, the patriarch of the family. His performance brought authority, warmth and humour to the character.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: large;">Farida Jalal, already a familiar and respected face from Hindi cinema, played Suhasini Diwan. Her natural comic timing and expressive performance added another layer of charm to the family drama.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><br /></p>

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: large;">Few actors possessed the intensity, individuality and unmistakable presence that Shri Nana Patekar Ji had. He brought remarkable versatility and creativity to every role and gave us characters that will be remembered for generations. He was also admired for his frank and forthright views, never hesitating to express what he believed in.

Shri Nana Patekar’s contribution to Hindi and Marathi cinema was immense. His passing leaves a deep void. My condolences to his family, friends and countless admirers. Om Shanti.</span></p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: large;">— Narendra Modi (@narendramodi) <a href="https://x.com/narendramodi/status/2108040795844706467?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">October 8, 2026</a></span></blockquote><p><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: large;"><span style="text-align: justify;">Born as Vishwanath Patekar on January 1, 1951, in Murud-Janjira, Maharashtra, Nana came from a humble background.</span> </span></p>

</span><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: large;">When I first met him, out of awe and awkwardness I fiddled with my hair. He slapped my hand away and said 'hero ki tarah Baal mat bana...tu actor hai'! 
He didn't flatter you. He didn't tell you what you wanted to hear. He told you what you needed to hear. That was Nana. Straightforward. Rough, honest and had the most beautiful smile. 
He always had a strange way of showing affection. He would shout at you first, and then somewhere between the third or fourth insult, you realised you were being hugged. He loved me and I loved him back.
He was a mentor, a teacher, a critic and a friend who beat me and everyone else around him in carrom game after game and relished his victories.  
Nana your intensity, laughter , madness and love will always stay with us. I just wish we had time to have more conversations, another argument, another cup of tea and a game of carrom. 
You have left a void not only in the world of cinema but in the hearts of all Indians and the world. All I can say is, I will miss you dearly and carry your words in my heart till the end of time....'hero banne ke chakar mein actor mat khona' 
May your soul rest in peace Nana and Allah bless you. The Heavens will be blessed to have you... a masterful actor and an unbeatable carrom champion. Love you and miss you dearly!! Too soon my Hero Actor!
