the success of anna kolangal promted many drama producers venturing into tv serials with YG mahendra, mouli, kathadi ramamurthy etc, coming with their own.
the doordarshan owned by government , so they wanted to give all prospective producers a chance to earn in the new medium. so they created this 13 week time span for a tele serial, that is a serial can run for 13 weekly epiodes(for three months).
this was initially difficult, but with the increase in slots in weekdays and sundays, enabled many to come with many serials.

so by mid 1985 we have 10 serilas in weekdays and a couple more in weekends.
