As the world celebrates World Television Day, it is the perfect moment to acknowledge the enduring power of a medium that has shaped stories, careers, and cultural conversations for decades. In India, television remains one of the most influential platforms, bringing families together, offering comfort through routine, and introducing characters who become part of everyday life. Even as viewing habits evolve and new formats emerge, the emotional pull of television remains timeless.
In this spirit, Tumm Se Tumm Tak continues to win immense love from audiences across the country. Its refreshing narrative and heartfelt performances have struck a strong chord with viewers, especially the character of Aryavardhan, portrayed by the supremely talented
Sharad Kelkar. As the show’s popularity grows, Sharad reflects on the significance of television and the deep connection it continues to foster with audiences on this special day.
Sharad Kelkar, who essays the role of Arya in Tumm Se Tumm Tak, said, “Television has always been more than a career milestone for me; it’s been a classroom, a companion, and a catalyst for growth. When I look back, the early days of TV had a different charm… families waiting for their favourite shows, conversations carrying into the next day, characters becoming part of every household. Today, the medium has evolved with sharper storytelling and a far wider reach, but the soul remains the same; it still brings people together. I feel grateful that TV gave me the space to explore, learn, and connect with millions. On World Television Day, I celebrate that beautiful bond between a storyteller and an audience that continues even today.”
On a day that celebrates the heart and history of television, Sharad’s words beautifully capture why the medium continues to hold such a special place in viewers’ lives, and in the journeys of the storytellers who bring these narratives to life.
