Amidst Adipurush debacle; OG Ramayan to air on TV again

The business of Prabhas and Kriti Sanon starrer Adipurush might have picked up on Saturday and Sunday, but it fell down on Monday again. The makers reduced the prices of tickets even more just recently. However, the expected business is not what one might have thought it would do. And in the middle of it all, the OG Ramayan is going to air on TV. Yes, you read that right. Ramanand Sagar’s Ramayan which starred Arun Govil as Ram, Dipika Chikhlia as Sita and Sunil Lahri as Lakshman is going to be telecast on TV again.

Ramanand Sagar’s Ramayan to be telecast on TV again

Well, the audience is too angry and also the ones who starred in the adaptations of Ramayan before are very miffed with Om Raut-directed Adipurush. Though the Kriti Sanon, Prabhas and Saif Ali Khan starrer only depicts the Yuddha Kand, there has been backlash over a lot of things. And now, the old Ramayan is being brought back on TV. Shemaroo TV will bring back the OG Ramayan of Arun Govil, Dipika Chikhlia and Sunil Lahri to name a few. It will be broadcast on Shemaroo TV from 3rd July at 7:30 pm.
