SHARARAT: THODA JAADU, THODI NAZAAKAT

SHARARAT: THODA JAADU, THODI NAZAAKAT Shring Bring Sarvaling ,BhootBhavishyaVartamaanBadling! One can’t resist being driven away by the sense of nostalgia while being stumbled upon this mantra!  It was unarguably the era of entertainment .While a decade has passed on, Shararat, the fantasy sitcom spanning over 5 installments, definitely gives away every 90s’ kid a chance to brag about those good old days.
