Ramayan is back among the new generation and the old as they sit together to watch the superhit mythological show from the 80s, courtesy lockdown due to coronavirus outbreak. Since there wasn’t any social media when the show first released in 1987, the new net-savvy generation is happy to watch the epic drama and have been sharing their reactions on Twitter.
The viewers are already a fan Laxman’s (Sunil Lahri) dialogue delivery, who has earned a new fan base post the show release. His latest dialogue during the swayamvar scene won over the audience. As Rishi Parshuram says, “Isko humari aankho se door lejao (remove him from my sight)”, Lakshman replies “ Aap aankhe band karlijiye prabhu, main dikhai nahi dunga (Please close your eyes, you won’t be able to see me).”

Ramayan stars Arun Govil as Ram, Deepika Chikhalia as Sita and Arvind Trivedi as Raavan. The show also starred late wrestler-turned-actor Dara Singh as Hanuman.
A picture of Arun watching the rerun of the show with his family went viral recently. The actor told IANS in an interview, “The new generation will get a chance to watch it. They will get to understand the morals, teachings and values of Ramayan. If they will watch it with the family, they can interact also. If they have queries then their family members of the older generation can explain things. It is a family show. How relationships should be...has been shown in the show. Positivity is there. Right now there is a lockdown, you can’t go anywhere. So watching it will be a good way to use the time.”
