Trivia: Uttara Ramayan Was Mostly Directed By Ramanand Sagar’s Sons Moti And Anand, Former Was Busy With Court Cases!

Uttara Ramayan came to an end today. The serial, that was being re aired on DD National after the end of Ramayan had also tugged into the hearts of the audiences just like the previous part. In fact, Ramayan had broken the world record for most viewership, way ahead of Game Of Thrones too! But did you know that most episodes of Uttara Ramayan were directed not by Ramanand Sagar but by his sons, Moti and Anand Sagar and you will be shocked to know the reason.

The reason was that, Ramanad Sagar had been involved in a lot of court cases and he had to attend the hearing while Uttara Ramayan was being shot. Dipika Chikhlia, who portrayed the character of Sita, made this revelation. She said, “By the time Uttar Ramayan stared, there were a lot of cases going on Ramanand Sagar. Most of the time he wasn’t available to direct the episodes but would send the script. He made Ramayan on how it was actually written and created his own. He didn’t include the folk stories on Ramayan. Hence, there were a few cases on him. His sons Moti and Anand Sagar directed the show.”

Well, Ramanand Sagar still managed to create history, back then and even now after two decades!
