Much like everything else..our Indian television industry has grown by a gazillion times since the days of Buniyaad on Doordarashan. We as a nation obsessed with Bollywood also are a dedicated TV soap loving country with women( specifically homemakers) dominating this segment more than anyone else. And it's not just the drama that catches their fancy but also the fashion portrayed in these teleseries makes an equally huge impact on their sartorial preferences.
The kind of clothing choices has evolved. From the times of realistic TV such as Udaan, Buniyaad and the likes, to bolder ones such as TARA and BANEGI APNI BAAT to the epic "K serials", and now the rural based series such as Balika Vadhu and Diya aur Baati Hum. We could easily call these serials impactful fashion wise as they literally brought not just Indian values to television but also Indian clothing to the forefront.
