I have vague memories of a show that was on early Sunday morning in the mid-80's that had a distinct Indian flavour to it. It was made in Britain and was on one of the 4 UK stations of the day (BBC1 BBC2 ITV CH4).
In our pre-internet, pre-57-channels era I think it was meant to be a sort of "catch all" show for Indian culture in Britain at the time? It had a full Indian cast and was set in a studio. I can't really remember what it was about but I don't think it involved acting. I think it was a presenter based show? I think it even might have shown clips from Bollywood movies. It seemed to be a 'bit of everything' iirc which is why I'm having a hard time describing it.
I'm sorry my description is so vague. I can't really remember more than that. I'm not from India or even the UK and I remember this show being my first introduction to Indian people. I found it fairly interesting and different.
Anyway, if you have any idea what it was then I'd love to hear from you. Thanks!
