By what name was Dallas (1978) officially released in India in English?
The early seasons of Dallas focused more on the rivalry between the Ewings and the Barnes family, but writers were quick to notice that fans were most interested in Ewing patriarch J.R., played by Larry Hagman.
Before Dallas, she had small spots on Eight Is Enough and Happy Days, and her first film role came in 1978's Freaky Friday starring Jodie Foster. Afterwards, she appeared in several lowbrow parody films, including Silence of the Hams, Superhero Movie, Paranormal Calamity, and the like. She's also picked up several small film and television roles.
It wound up airing for 14 seasons during its original run, with its final episode airing in the spring of 1991.

She also won several awards for playing Genevra in Deep are the Roots. Outside of Dallas, she is best known in Hollywood for her collaborations with Alfred Hitchcock: she was in a few episodes of Alfred Hitchcock Presents and had a central role in Vertigo.
Dallas gave Gray plenty of experience in a soap opera environment, and she's leveraged that experience into several impressive television appearances. She had a short run on Melrose Place as Hillary Michaels, who ran a modeling agency. A spinoff featuring her character was later made, called Models Inc., which Gray starred in. She's also had runs on The Bold and the Beautiful, Hilton Head Island, and Hollyoaks.
Kercheval slowed down quite a bit after Dallas finished β in fact, most of his major roles came before the show started or happened while it was still on the air. However, he also frequently booked guest appearances on a variety of shows: You might have caught Kercheval on something like Walker, Texas Ranger, ER, Murder, She Wrote, Crossing Jordan, or Diagnosis Murder. Interestingly, Kercheval starred in the TV movie I Still Dream of Jeannie β an interesting Dallas connection, given that Larry Hagman starred in the original run of the show.
As a result of Hagman's death in 2012, his character J.R. was killed off in season two of Dallas. Unused footage of Hagman was used in season three as part of the season's story arc, which aired in 2014.

Hagman had supporting roles in numerous films, including Fail-Safe, Harry and Tonto, S.O.B., Nixon, and Primary Colors. His television appearances also included guest roles on dozens of shows spanning from the late 1950s until his death, and a reprise of his signature role on the 2012 revival of Dallas.
He appeared in The Taming of the Shrew in New York City, followed by numerous tent show musicals with St. John Terrell's Music Circus in St. Petersburg, Florida, and Lambertville, New Jersey. In 1951, Hagman appeared in the London production of South Pacific with his mother, and stayed in the show for nearly a year.
I Dream of Jeannie (1965) In 1965, Hagman was cast as "genie" Barbara Eden 's master and eventual love interest, Air Force Captain (later Major) Anthony Nelson, in the NBC situation comedy I Dream of Jeannie, which ran for five seasons from 1965 to 1970.
