As most of you must be aware, few weeks ago, Doordarshan started the re-telecast of epic serial Ramayan on account of public demand amid the lockdown. Soon after the re-telecast began, Ramayan created a buzz in the television industry and surpassed many viewership records.
Just few days ago, Ramayan serial reached its peak as the episode in which Lord Ram killed the demon Ravan was telecasted. There was high enthusiasm among masses to view this episode.
In the meantime, a picture of Arun Govil (who played the character of Ram) and Arvind Trivedi (who played the character of Ravan) together went viral on the social media. In the picture, the real life friendship between the two is quite evident.
The picture that went viral was clicked during the shooting of the Ramayan. In the picture both Ram (Arun Govil) and Ravan (Arvind Trivedi) are seen shaking hands with each other. This picture was shared by Arun Govil.
It is to be noted that due to the nationwide lockdown on account of coronavirus, shooting for new episodes of serials have stopped completely. In addition to this there was a demand from a section of Indian viewers who wanted the re-telecast of old epic serials. Doordarshan began re-telecast of Ramayan from 28th March 2020.
