Shehnaaz Gill, Sidharth Shukla, Ruslaan Mumtaz, Ramayan — Meet TV's newsmakers of the week

India is on a 21-day lockdown and the one thing that is giving respite to many people is TV. With the film and TV industry being shut down, channels are re-telecasting old shows to keep viewers engaged. Here is what made news from the world of TV...

Shehnaaz Gill and Sidharth Shukla

The first song of #SidNaaz, Bhula Dunga released and broke the internet as it was expected to. It got two million likes in two days and has crossed 27 million views in three days. It is quite staggering. Shehnaaz Gill also made news with some rather candid confessions on her relationship with Sidharth Shukla. She made it clear that they are just friends. She said she loves Sidharth and is attracted towards him as well, but he does not reciprocate in the same manner. She told SpotboyE, "Yes I am in a relationship with Sidharth but as a friend. I had said that I love him. And, he's protective about me. As he's protective, I am not waiting to hear 'I love you' from him. He's a very good friend of mine and I don't want to lose him as a friend. Waise, love relationships kahan chalte hain aajkal long time ke liye?"

Ruslaan Mumtaz

The Balika Vadhu actor became a proud daddy to a baby boy. His wife, Nirali, delivered the child on Thursday at Mumbai's Saifee Hospital. He has shared his experience on how it was like to drive his wife to the hospital from Juhu to Marine Lines in this lockdown period. In an emotional post, Ruslaan wrote, "I genuinely do believe that babies born in times when the world is going through a rough patch come here for a reason. So I'm hoping my chota baby is a super hero born in difficult times and in time will make this world even more beautiful than he already is. I hope and pray the world becomes a better place for us, our parents and our children."

Ramayan

Many of us will remember that childhood on Sundays meant watching the Ramayan. It was a part of our routine. Now, the show is going to be back on Doordarshan. Prakash Javdekar tweeted, "Happy to announce that on public demand, we are starting retelecast of 'Ramayana' from tomorrow, Saturday March 28 in DD National, One episode in morning 9 am to 10 am, another in the evening 9 pm to 10 pm."
