Sony SAB’s mythological drama Dharm Yoddha Garud has been fascinating its viewers with the opulent tales of the mighty Garud and his brave deeds. The upcoming episodes will be a highlight for audiences as they witness the story of how Garud was chosen to be the vahak of Lord Vishnu. Faisal Khan, who essays the character of Garud, says, “Garud’s encounter with Lord Vishnu on his way to the Nagas holding the amrit has been etched in golden words in mythology. This is his biggest test, and his purpose of life will gradually unravel from this point on. Although faced by temptation, Garud has always been true to his virtues and devotion. I feel extremely humbled to have played such a character.”

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
