No matter whether one believes in God or not, mythological serials have existed since time immemorial. One might not watch the serials, but one cannot ignore them as myths are an integral part of human existence. If you’re still not hooked onto these shows, here are three reasons why you should watch mythological serials. Take a look:
Best way to know history
There is no denying the fact that God Shiva and Goddess Durga are worshipped throughout the country. But how many youngsters are aware of the history of these deities? Most people shrug it off with a ‘who has the time’ look. Enter serials, which are an interesting medium to know the past.
Questions about culture
What does one mean by mythology? Well, it is the study of myths. Every culture has its myth revolving around its deities that addresses several fundamental questions like why a particular God is worshipped to the practice of a particular belief. With talented researchers and script writers, these serial focus on finding answers to these questions.
Best source of infotainment for kids
It is a known fact that a child’s brain can soak up information like a sponge. A child can grasp anything sharply fed with a bit of entertainment. So, when serials like ‘Maa Durga’ (Colors Bangla), ‘Sadhak Bamakhyapa’ (Colors Bangla) or ‘Mahabharat’ (Bengali) (Star Jalsha) are around, children are bound to learn our past with a bit of fun thrown in.
