Arun Govil favourite 'Ramayan' characters revealed
Arun Govil is considered to be one of the most famous faces in the Indian television industry. Govil shot to fame when he starred in the Ramanand Sagar TV series Ramayan. Although the show was produced a decade ago, it is still considered to be one of the finest TV shows in India. Amidst the ongoing Coronavirus lockdown, Ramayan had got a re-run.
In the #AskArun session, a fan asked him “what was the main reason for Ramayan’s success?” Arun Govil responded to this question by writing, “Prabhu Kripa (By god’s grace)”. Another fan asked him, “which was the most difficult scene to film from Ramayan? Govil stated, “hearing the news of King Dashrath’s death and reacting on that”.
But, one question that popped up during the Q&A session grabbed all the spotlight. This fan asked him,“Sir your favourite character apart from Shri Ram? #AskArun”. Arun Govil was quick to respond to this question. He wrote, “Hanumanji and Raavan.”
Apart from this question, fans even asked Arun Govil about his films and his process about adapting and studying a character. During this #AskArun session, somebody asked the Ramayan actor, “Before doing the role of Lord Ram, did you do any research like reading versions of Ramayan like Valmiki Ramayan, Kamban Ramayan, and Ramcharitmanas”? Arun Govil replied, “One has to do the homework before playing any character”.
