Hatim (2003): Why This Fantasy Epic Still Rules the Hearts of Millions

Based on fan polls from 2003 to today:

Before Game of Thrones made fantasy mainstream, before The Lord of the Rings dominated the box office, Indian television had its own quiet, ambitious answer to epic fantasy: . Based on the classic Persian tale Hatim Tai , the show follows the noble and kind-hearted prince Hatim on a quest to answer seven profound questions by helping seven different people in distress — all to save the world from the evil sorcerer Dajjal.

Hatim is the Prince of Yemen, born as a "ray of hope" to protect the weak against rising dark forces.
