Till now, we find that only a particular channel hosts TV serial awards, restricted to serials aired on its channel. But, why can’t we have such awards open to Marathi serials, aired on other channels too ? If this happens, it will be a good competition to watch. When we can have awards instituted by different Groups and sponsors for Marathi films and Marathi stage, why there is injustice to Marathi serials, which has been offering talented artistes ? Few years ago, an event management company, which hosts TV serial awards in Hindi, had come forward with the proposal of hosting awards for Marathi serials too; but, that proposal remained on papers only, for want of sponsors.

Now days, we observe that popular TV artistes are in big demand for Marathi film and stage award functions held abroad, for performing dances or for anchoring shows. So, why can’t these Organisers also include awards for Marathi TV serial artistes and their makers? If these awards are added to the existing awards, they will help increase the popularity of these awards.

If such awards are introduced, it will create good completion among different channels and their producers, to offer their best creation. It will also be interesting to see Mrunal Dusanis competing with Dipti Ketkar , Suruchi Adarkar and Santosh Juvekar competing with Suyash Tilak and so on. Today, we find many TV serial makers, taking the viewers for granted. In many serials, we find the popular characters repeating the same dialogues again and again, with the same expressions on their face. To make a serial interesting, it is very necessary to have good communication among the characters, with quality and effective dialogues. There was a time, when we noticed good dialogues in past serials like ‘Damini’, ‘Vadalvaat’’, ‘Avantika’, ‘Agnihotra’, ‘Ya Sukhanno Ya’ & ‘Asambhav’. Why can’t we have such quality dialogues in the present day serials ?

To offer a good Marathi serial, there has to be a complete script ready, with dialogues. A popular TV serial director once said that he preferred to make a serial, which would be over within six months. But, today, we find many serials dragging on for more than a year. Sometimes, two years or even three years, with some of the artistes and even the director being replaced. And, that’s not fair.
