Actor Dipika Chikhlia, known for her portrayal of Goddess Sita in the TV series Ramayan 36 years ago, has expressed her opinion on the continuous creation of new adaptations of the epic.
She believes that the Ramayana should not be treated as entertainment and that filmmakers should avoid making frequent iterations.
Chikhlia stated that any deviation from the original story would face criticism.Chikhlia commented on the controversy surrounding the film Adipurush, directed by Om Raut and starring Prabhas and Kriti Sanon.
The movie, which is a lavish retelling of the Ramayana, has received backlash for its dialogue, colloquial language, and portrayal of certain characters.Amidst the discussions about various versions of the Ramayana, including animated, TV, and film adaptations, Chikhlia shared a video of herself dressed as Sita, reminiscent of her iconic role from the late 80s.Chikhlia believes that each filmmaker has their own viewpoint and seeks to bring a unique vision to their work.However, she expressed her concern about the frequent remaking of the Ramayana every year or two.She emphasized that the Ramayana is not meant for entertainment but serves as a source of learning.It is a book that has been passed down through generations, embodying the values of Indian culture.
Chikhlia, who is currently occupied with her shooting schedule, has not watched Adipurush and is unlikely to do so due to the negative buzz surrounding it.She believes that once she watches the film, she will be in a better position to comment on it.Regarding her future projects, Chikhlia did not provide any details, stating that she has nothing to share at the moment.Responding to questions about Adipurush, she mentioned that she has no knowledge about the films scenes or any other aspects.
Dipika Chikhlia clarified that the original Ramayan series was not made for financial gain but as a matter of worship.She expressed pride in the casts portrayal of characters and acknowledged the shows enduring popularity.Chikhlia believes recreating the same magic is impossible but feels grateful for the audiences continued appreciation of her role as Sita.
