MUMBAI: Owing to the present lockdown, we are seeing reruns of popular old shows on TV. Doordarshan has given us our childhood back with shows like Ramayan, Mahabharat, and Shakitmaan. The popularity of the shows is insane and it has indeed benefited the channel with great number of TRPs. Ramayan and Mahabharat were among the first ones to mark a comeback. Amidst this, a video of actor Arvind Trivedi, who essayed the role of Raavan in Ramayan, has gone viral on Instagram.
The video sees the veteran actor watching the Sita Apaharan scene on television. He is all emotional and also joins hands as if asking for forgiveness for doing a role like that of Raavan.
'So touching. 84 year old veteran #ArvindTrivedi ji watched his #Ravana role after 30 years & seeks forgiveness from others,' reads the caption attached with this video.
Ramayan, directed by Ramanand Sagar, attained a lot of fame back then, to the extent where the stars were actually considered to be gods. With this being the case, one can imagine the hate received by the star for playing Raavan.
Have a look.
