DD National still runs the classics, and honestly nothing beats the way Doordarshan used to schedule things. The 1987 Ramayana serial is the one I keep going back to, my whole street used to shut down on Sunday mornings for it. Someone put together a decent comparison of the 1987 version and the new film here: https://ramayanafilm.online/news/ramayana-1987-vs-2026-two-generations/ which made me rewatch a few episodes. For everything else, YouTube channels like Goldmines and Shemaroo have most of the older Hindi films for free.
