The storyline circled around Mohan Bharti, an engineer who is forced to teach Hindi in a language school to students who not only come from different regions of the country but the world too. The situations that arise amidst this chaos is the most witty part of the show. If you want to laugh heartily you can’t give this a miss!
2 – Shrimaan Shrimati
Shrimaan Shrimati was one of the most popular sitcom in 1994 when it originally released. With Jatin Kanakia, Rakesh Bedi, Reema Lagoo and Archana Puran Singh in the lead roles the show rocked due to excellent comic timings of the actors and equally funny storylines. The show’s main plot was built around “In love with neighbor’s wife” theme (much like today’s Bhabhiji Ghar Par Hain on &Tv) In the show Keshav Kulkarni is married to Kokila, a smart homemaker but is attracted to his neighbor’s wife Prema Shalini who is a popular actress while Prema’s own effeminate husband Dilruba can’t seem to get enough of Kokila. Their silly antics to flirt with each other’s wives and their efforts going in vain will leave you in tickles for sure.
3 – Yes Boss

The show revolved around a married couple Mohan and Meera who work in the same office and have not disclosed their relationship status to their boss, Vinod, who uses every opportunity he gets to flirt with Meera which Mohan hates and keeps running around to protect her most of the time. Starring Asif Sheikh, Rakesh Bedi and Kavita Kapoor in lead roles this show is absolutely worth multiple watch. Pinched with panic, plans, eye rolls and a lot of laughter this just can’t stay off this funny wagon.
4 – Sarabhai Vs. Sarabhai
