Shivanandanagar, Distt. Tehri-Garhwal, Uttaranchal, Himalayas, India PUBLISHERS’ NOTE Sri Swami Sivanandaji. Maharaj was a healer of the body in his Purvashram (before he entered the Holy Order of Sannyasa). He was a born healer, with an extraordinary inborn love to serve humanity; that is why he chose the medical profession as a career. That is why he edited and published a health Journal “Ambrosia”. That is why he went over to Malaya to serve the poor in the plantations there. And, strangely enough, that is why, he renounced the world and embraced the Holy Order of Sannyasa. He was a healer of the body and the soul. This truth is reflected in the Ashram which he has established in Rishikesh. The huge hospital equipped with modern instruments was set up and the entire Ashram where all are welcome to get themselves healed of their heart’s sores and thoroughly refresh themselves in the divine atmosphere of the holy place. Sri Swamiji wanted that all systems of healing should flourish. He had equal love and admiration for all systems of healing. He wanted that the best of all the systems should be brought out and utilised in the service of Man.

R.1 and Dr. K. M. Kumaraswamy 2 1MS Ph. D, Assistant Professor, Department of Journalism and Mass Communication, Kuvempu University, Jnanasahyadri, Shankaraghatta , Shimoga, Karnataka, India. 2 MJMC, Ph. D, Guest Faculty, Department of Journalism and Mass Communication, Gulbarga University, Jnana Ganga Campus, Gulbarga University, Kalaburagi-585106, Karnataka, India. ABSTRACT Television content in India has come a long way from public broadcaster Doordarshan controlled social and developmental programs to modern day entertainment shows. The article traces the major trends witnessed in the Indian television content, Hindi and other regional languages, and attempts to analyze the factors behind the nature of such programming. The article provides a critical analysis of the television soap operas (fiction) and the reality shows (non-fiction) aired in General Entertainment Channels (GECs). Some of the key trends witnessed in the content industry includes remakes, adaptations and dubbed content from transnational programs and concepts; remakes among Indian languages- from Hindi to regional language and vice versa; and a clear tilt towards the rural content, dictated by the ever expanding rural viewership for television channels. Importantly, the article establishes the fact that, though the content seems Indian in terms of production values, the origin of some of these popular programs are undoubtedly from the transnational borders. KEYWORDS: Content industry, fiction, Indian language channels, Indian television, non-fiction, rural television market, South Indian language channels, transnational content.
