Deepika Chikhalia Feels Ramayan’s Re-run Is Making It Popular Among The Young Generation

Deepika Chikhalia who is best known for her role as Sita in Ramanand’s Ramayan revealed that her show is gaining popularity among the young generation post its re-run on Television. 

The gorgeous actress got candid with a leading web portal where she spoke about how Ramayan is receiving love from the youngsters after being re-aired. The show has garnered more than 7 crore viewership, beating Game Of Thrones globally.

She revealed that earlier on, people would laugh at them saying that the show is never-ending and would be ashamed to admit they were fans. "When it was aired at that time, there were a lot of weird people who would come up and laugh about it, and would say how funny it was. People would laugh that it is just going on and would come up and tell me that 'my mother-in-law is a fan, my grandparents are a fan' They were ashamed to admit that they were my fan. There was this discrimination," she recalled sighing. She added that she would wonder if only elderly people were her fans. "But, today I feel the millennials are taking it so well. The generation today is sensitive and sensible. They are learning. I think full credits to them for giving it respect and understanding. I feel it is genuinely something you can learn from. It is not entertainment, take it as a learning." she asserted.

She also laughingly shared that she feels people should stop remaking Ramayan. "I don't know why people keep making Ramayan. Every year they come up with a new Ramayan. I think people should stop that. I keep wondering why do you try? When you have something already, why try to replicate? The narration, the performances, the simplicity, everything is missing," she reiterated.
