Shah Rukh Khan Starrer Umeed's Rare Clip Goes Viral, Twitter Compares It To Panchayat
Shah Rukh Khan appeared in the 1989 television film 'Umeed' before his time on the popular series 'Fauji'.
New Delhi: Shah Rukh Khan appeared in the 1989 television film 'Umeed' before his time on the popular series 'Fauji'. The protagonist of the story is a banker who struggles to put things right for both the organisation and the people in his life. The superstar Shah Rukh Khan portrayed the banker in the film.
A Twitter user named Mimansa Shekhar posted some movie snippets on the microblogging platform.
“#ShahRukhKhan featured in a film #Umeed (1989) before he became famous. #SRK played a banker struggling to get settled in a village after his transfer there as a manager. Web show #Panchayat gave us a déjà vu of this plot. Can you draw parallels?" the tweet read.

This is a gem. I also remember an old series called Neev about hostel life back in late 80s or early 90s. I always wonder how to get reels of those old gold TV serials. There were a few I remember like Katha Sagar & Darpan
