Bengaluru: Kannada dubbed versions of Malgudi Days of Shankar Nag and Mahabharata by Swastik Productions which were originally produced in Hindi language will be telecasted in two Kannada channels from May 11.
Zee Kannada will telecast the Malgudi Days while Star Suvarna will telecast the Mahabharata.
Malgudi Days serial based on the stories by RK Narayan was one of the trend setters in the Indian small screen. Mahabharata produced by the Swastik production was also created a record TRP in 2013.
Even though Kannada channels were planning to telecast dubbed serials from long back, there was stiff resistance from several Kannada groups. But the lock down forced the channels to go ahead with their plans for airing the dubbed serials.
