Unlike the original Hindi version (which had 94 episodes), the Tamil telecast on Vijay TV adopted a unique formatting structure. The 1268 episodes are broken down into short, digestible 20–22 minute segments. This was done to accommodate the Tamil audience's viewing habits—allowing families to watch the epic during weekday prime-time slots without committing to hour-long installments.
