Betaal Pachisi (1997–1998)
5/10
A fantasy mishmash
20 October 2019
Betaal Pachisi aired off and on between 1997 and 1998 on Doordarshan. It is a fantasy based very loosely on the Phantom. The titles song is by Asha Bhonsle, who also rendered the Tamil version (a very good accent though one can make out in places that it is done by a non-Tamilian).

There are several incidences narrated in this spin-off of the Phantom with several episodes being dedicated to each incident. Another quirk of this series is that the super-villains of these incidences become harmless jokers in later episodes (mostly after being done in by the hero and having been resurrected in one way or another).

Overall, a decent series for children below the age of ten.
