Internet adores Indian TV actress OG Sita aka Dipika Chikhlia

Indian TV actress Dipika Chikhlia continues to be everyone’s favourite as people couldn’t stop raving about her new look as Sita, a role she reprised in a video clip decades after playing the mythological role on TV. Dipika starred in the iconic look of Sita in Ramanand Sagar’s Ramayan TV series in 1987. She became famous for her role in what can be called one of the most loved TV shows of all time. Ramayan is back in news as “Adipurush”, another interpretation of the Hindu mythological book, has invited diverse opinions from movie watchers.

“Adipurush”, with its heavy-on-VFX scenes and big budget couldn’t do what Ramanand Sagar’s show did in 1987: evoke a sense of unity and pride in Indian heritage. The new film has been receiving backlash for its portrayal of the revered figures, the poorly written dialogues that don’t sound or land well. Also, some are finding fault with the casting too. Hence, the newfound love for Dipika Chikhlia.

Basking on the love, Dipika Chikhlia has now treated fans to a video in which she has once again stepped into the shoes of Sita. In the video, the actress is seen dressed in saffron robes as she did in the original with the song “Ram Siya Ram” from “Adipurush”, playing in the background. In the caption, Dipika Chikhlia wrote, “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.”

Fans took no time to thank the actress for treating them once again with one writing, “No one can replace you as Sita ji role.” Another wrote, “So beautiful… Actual reflection of Sita mata.”

In Adipurush, Prabhas stars as Raghav, Sunny Singh as Sesh, Kriti Sanon as Janaki, and Saif Ali Khan as Lankesh. The film has been directed by Om Raut. (Agencies)
