Hum Paanch, Zabaan Sambhal Ke and other evergreen sitcoms that you can binge-watch

There are many television shows that were way ahead of its time with a perfect blend of wit, sarcasm and entertainment. The subtlety of those comedy shows sans demeaning anyone was one of its vital factors. Roasting has come into the picture recently but hasn't really got accustomed to the minds of the Indian audience. However, there are a few old sitcoms that can be binge-watched even now, while in office, or travelling, these comedy soaps will lift your mood and make you a pro at comebacks: (Photo: Instagram)
