Renuka Shahane on her return to acting: On OTT, there is less hierarchy and more equality
In the last few years, Renuka Shahane has dabbled into writing and direction, while her acting projects have been far and few in between. This year, she returned to the screens in a comic role with the web series Dupahiya, after having done another comic part in the 2021 release Govinda Naam Mera. Renuka Shahane During the '90s and 2000s, Renuka Shahane was mostly seen in intense roles and she is loving getting to explore the lighter side on screen. 'This is an aspect which, for the longest time, I was not associated with. As actors, I feel that drama is comparatively easier than comedy. You have to be very particular about the tone that you are using and the tone has to match the tone of the filmmaker who's making that comedy. There are various styles of comedic acting and I enjoy myself so much doing comedy,' she says. One of the most loved and revered films in the Indian cinematic history Hum Aapke Hain Koun! recently completed 31 years, and Renuka admits that no matter how much time passes, it will remain the role that everyone will remember her by. 'There's going to be no dissociation from that role for the next many years as well, because I think that that is such an iconic role that is going to always be there for me. I'm grateful for that,' she says. Having been part of both the film and web format in recent time, Renuka asserts that there is a difference between the two. 'In the series format, there is less hierarchy. There is much more equality and within people behind the camera and and in front of the camera, there is a different kind of camaraderie, which makes for a good OTT series. On the film set, there's a definite hierarchy,' she says, adding that there are much more women in the workforce today. 'You see a lot more young people on the set today and a lot more women in roles, which are traditionally not seen with them. Like Govinda Naam Mera was shot by a female cinematographer. A lot of women are seen much more in roles of power in the industry today. That's a great evolution,' she asserts. With OTT, she also feels that female actors above a certain age are getting meatier roles. 'There are so many newer stories for women that are written today by both men and women. They talk about emotions one would never have expected, say 20 years back. Ensemble casts, including character actors, have become a norm and things are specifically written for people over a particular age, which didn't happen earlier,' she says. 'The times have changed now and people are willing to accept actors who are not doing the same thing over and over again. We want variety from actors. So, our audience has also evolved because they are exposed to so much these days that is happening all around the world. As an audience, we also expect better things from our writers and our directors. That's where the crux lies. If the audience wants the same thing from you over and over again, you are bound to give that. You're not going to be in anything which is of any experimental nature, especially not women,' Renuka ends.

Not Mirzapur, not Panchayat, not Gullak, this TV show still reigns with a 9.4 IMDb rating, its name is...
The rise of OTT has changed how India watches stories. You can call it a 'cinema in your pocket' — a moving theatre where both the latest blockbusters and timeless classics play at your convenience. Platforms have found fame mostly through original web series. From Mirzapur and The Family Man to Panchayat, Sacred Games, and Gullak, the list of binge-worthy hits is long — and all enjoy glowing ratings. Yet, buried deep in this streaming race lies a surprise — a decades-old TV show that still beats them all in audience love and critical acclaim. IMDb has stamped it with a score so high, even today's best titles fail to match it. Which show has this unbeatable legacy? The answer takes us back to 1986, when Malgudi Days first aired on Doordarshan. Based on R.K. Narayan's simple yet soul-stirring short stories, this series had a modest start — shot on borrowed funds, carrying the warmth of small-town India. Viewers loved it so deeply that the makers not only recovered every rupee of debt but carved an unshakable place in Indian television history. Behind the lens and the magic The first three seasons were directed by the late Shankar Nag, with the fourth handled by Kavitha Lankesh. The English version had 13 episodes, while the Hindi one stretched to over 50. Season one and two each had 13 episodes, while the final season added 15 more. And the numbers? IMDb rates Malgudi Days at a remarkable 9.4 — higher than Panchayat, Gullak, Mirzapur, or The Family Man. Cast, characters, and more The show's cast was a strong blend of talent — Girish Karnad, Anant Nag, and many more. But the heart of it all was 'Swami,' played by Master Manjunath, whose portrayal of an innocent yet spirited schoolboy became unforgettable. His charm pulled viewers into the slow, tender world of Malgudi. Such was the cultural impact that Indian Railways renamed Karnataka's Arasalu railway station to 'Malgudi Railway Station' as a tribute. The love for this world didn't fade with time. In 2020, a film titled Malgudi Days was released, written and directed by Kishor Moodbidri, and is now streaming on Amazon Prime. But for many, the original TV series remains unmatched — its pace, simplicity, and human warmth offering a sharp contrast to today's high-octane storytelling.
