    Ramayan: Dipika Chikhlia Remembers The Time They Shot A Vanvas Scene Under A Tree With A Huge Snake

    Ramanand Sagar’s super hit adaptation of the ancient Indian Hindu epic Ramayan was undoubtedly one of the most loved shows on television in the 1980s. Starring Arun Govil as Shri Rama, Dipika Chikhlia as Sita and Sunil Lahri as Lakshman, the series not only won the audiences heart back then but also became one of the most watched shows in the entire world after its rerun was telecasted during the coronavirus lockdown.

    Dipika aka Sita decided to take a stroll down memory lane today and remembered the good old shooting days. Along with beautiful stills from a vanvas scene, the actress shared an interesting memory of how the team members were suddenly asked to vacate the area because of a snake. She explained, “There is a story behind this scene ....so I shared ...we were busy with the shoot, learning lines and so on...the day was as normal as could be, after the scene got over our cameraman Ajit naik (cinematography) came to tell us please vacate the place and don’t stand underneath the tree and we were wondering all the three actors as to what was the hurry and why so abrupt ...”

    She further shared, “he asked all the technicians also to clear the field ..sagar Saab was also wondering what happened ...and then he pointed out to a huge fat snake on the tree and what followed after that was we all RAN for our life.”

    Imagine all the fond memories that the team members made on the sets of the show. They clearly had a gala time together on-screen as well as off-screen.
