Remember Swami From TV Series Malgudi Days? This Is How He Looks Now Desi Do you know what I do, when I feel like experiencing my childhood again? I log in to Youtube to watch 'Malgudi Days', and I'm sure many of you do the same. Malgudi Days, Indian television's most popular and loved TV series till date and will remain forever.  This magical series which used to take us to an open world which had a simple town, people and families like that of us residing in it and dealing with their lives in the manner, we deal with ours. Kids loved to watch the show, but it was highly followed by grown-ups as well.  This virtual world created by Indian Novelist, R.K. Narayan, had a character which played the major role in making Malgudi Days reach and rule our hearts. A character which was adored, loved and followed by each and every kid then. Any guesses? Yes, he is none other than Swami. He was a child in that TV world, with whom we used to relate ourselves to.
