One day calm box names

It is a matter of past times that such a box was invented which made the eyes tear up. Just as a newlywed bride prepares Piya Deas and people from all over the family and neighborhood are eager to catch a glimpse of the bride, in the same way this box had such magic that the whole room would be filled and everyone would wait for it.

This invention of John Logie Baird was a surprise to the whole world, which set evolutionary stages all over the world with the passage of time. Thus, this amazing invention became an important means of getting national and international news and providing entertainment.

In 1964, the shining star of Pakistan Television shone on this box i.e. television. That was the era of black and white TV. Even so, the fascination was such that there was no place to sit in the room. The children of the whole neighborhood would come during the big play and watch the program together in such a way that it would become a scene of a cinema hall.

In 1976, Pakistan Television stepped out of the colorless world into the colorful world, but due to quality dramas and programs, PTV had already filled the lives of its viewers with color.

Pakistani films never failed to gain recognition domestically or internationally, but Pakistan Television soon gained a foothold and its quality dramas and other programs began to resonate across borders.

A number of dramas such as ‘Khoda Ki Basti’, ‘Ek Haqit Ek Afsansa’, ‘Waris’, ‘Tanhaiyan’, ‘Tesra Kanara’, ‘Dhoop Kinyar’ came out with quality stories, lively characters, charming language. . Uzma Geelani, Abid Ali, Moin Akhtar, Talat Hussain, Ruhi Bano, Qazi Wajid, Firdous Jamal, Waseem Abbas, Javed Sheikh, Shakeel, Shahnaz Sheikh, Marina Khan and many other actors made a home in the hearts of the audience through these dramas. .

The quality of these dramas was that these dramas and programs are not only imprinted on the hearts of the viewers even today, but Bollywood actors are also fans of these dramas.

But sir, they say that every perfection has its fall. This golden age also began to fade in the late 90s. Private channels began to proliferate during Pervez Musharraf’s tenure. The competition was such that quantity overtook quality.

However, the smart phone that became common after 2010 made up for it. Now it is known that after becoming smart, the TV attached itself to the wall and started being called Smart TV. By the way, the invention of internet and smart phones is no less than a breakthrough for television.

The proliferation of smart phones has significantly reduced the tendency to watch TV. The main reason for this is that it takes some time for breaking news to come on TV and to confirm the news, on the contrary, on smart phones, the news would have already come to the fore through various websites and social media platforms. Is. It is a separate debate as to how much truth there is in the news spread through social media.

The news or programs on TV that the viewers could not watch either due to the irony of electricity or for any other reason can be watched immediately from YouTube on the smart phone, so now even the rerun programs have lost their importance. Now in minutes and seconds, smart phones carry news from all over the world. In such a situation, who should put the plug on the switch board and wait for the TV to turn on?

But the heart wants to remember this old box on World TV Day. When there was no dish culture and no cable bus, the cute and smart antenna that we used to shake while asking ‘what happened, channel cleared?’

The family used to call out, ‘It came then it left, turn the antenna to the same side where it was turned before,’ and at the same time our favorite program or drama would go off. It was the glorious era when there was only one channel but everyone’s choice was taken care of like a member of the family. While there were cartoons and ‘Ainakwala Jin’ for children, along with programs for better education of children, there was a cookery program for housewives and an auction house for seeing eyes and listening ears. And also a wonderful program like Kusuti.

It was a time when dramas with educative and lively stories reflecting the society were eagerly awaited. Then in every drama, the woman was not shown destroying the woman’s house, but she was shown being polite and dealing with difficult situations. Then if someone was shown poor in a play, seeing the condition of the house and faces without make-up and ordinary clothes, it really seemed that the actor was poor. It was a time when no one knew what rating was and breaking was the name of a bird.

At that time, even the most important news was not read in the name of breaking. There was no riot in the name of talk shows, there was also disagreement in the field of civilization. PTV programs ‘Fifty Fifty,’ ‘Alf Noon’ and ‘Andhira Ajala’ are some prominent examples.

Now there are a lot of channels but there is a lack of quality programs. No channel has any budget or time to broadcast programs related to children’s education and training and scientific information. This excuse is always ready that children’s programs do not get good ratings and when they do not get good ratings, advertisements do not get. Good ratings come from throwing mud at each other in prime time, so no channel has any time for character building and training of new generation.

Therefore, today is the name of this quiet box, which used to make me feel sick. Again, these memories need to be adapted to the modern requirements from the past because if there is no fresh air, the society becomes dead.
