Dipika Chikhlia’s video
Which she posted, attired in saffron saree reminded fans of her as Sita in Ramanand Sagar’s Ramayan, which began airing on Doordarshan in the late 1980s. She had a red bindi on her forehead and also wore red sindoor (vermillion). Dipika prayed and gave different poses in the clip. She added the Adipurush song Ram Siya Ram to the video she shared on Instagram Reels.
Dipika wrote in the video
“This post is on public demand… I am grateful for the love I have always received for the role I played… Me as Sita ji…could not have asked for more…”
A fan compared Dipika to Adipurush’s Kriti Sanon, and commented on her video, “600 crore times better than Kriti Sanon.” Another wrote, “This one reel of Sita ji can give tough competition to the whole Adipurush film.” A fan also commented, “No one can replace you as Sita ji’s role.”
Last month, filmmaker Om Raut had kissed Kriti Sanon goodbye outside the Tirupati temple premises. Dipika, who immortalised the role of Sita, shared her displeasure with the incident and said that Kriti might not have thought of herself as Sita.
Dipika in an interview had quoted that she believes that this is a big problem with actors of this generation, as they neither get into the character nor understand its emotions. For them, Ramayana must have been just a film.
Perhaps they haven’t connected with it spiritually. Kriti is an actress of today’s generation.
In today’s era, kissing or hugging someone is considered a sweet gesture. She must have never thought of herself as Sita Ji. It becomes a matter of emotions.
Deepika had lived the character of Sita, while today’s actresses just consider it a role.
After the film or project is over, they don’t care anymore.
