'Tarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah' beats 'Mirzapur' for most searched show in India

The show topped Yahoo!'s year-ender list for 2020

It seems that Mirzapur is not the most talked-about Indian show this year. Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashma has topped Yahoo!'s year-ender list of the most searched films and TV shows in India for 2020, reported Hindustan Times. The sitcom, about a Gujarati family, beat out the likes of Bigg Boss and Mirzapur.

The list, unveiled on Tuesday, also includes mythological epics Mahabharat at the number two spot, and Ramayan at the number four spot. Both shows were rerun during the coronavirus-induced lockdown earlier this year.

At the number three spot is Sushant Singh Rajput’s final film, Dil Bechara. The romantic drama, co-starring Sanjana Sanghi, broke viewership records for Disney+Hotstar, the streaming platform claimed in a tweet less than 24 hours after the film’s release. The record was subsequently broken by Akshay Kumar’s Laxmii. Sushant was the most searched celebrity of 2020, according to Yahoo.

The Kapil Sharma Show claimed the number five spot on the list, while Tiger Shroff’s action film Baaghi 3 came in at the number six spot.
