Exclusive: Ramayan's Dipika Chikhlia on if she was approached for Nitesh Tiwari's magnum opus Ramayana; says ‘I cannot play any character in Ramayan'
With Ranbir Kapoor's first look as Lord Ram in Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana generating massive buzz, many fans have turned nostalgic about Ramanand Sagar's iconic 1987 serial Ramayan. For millions, Dipika Chikhlia remains the one and only Sita — a portrayal so deeply etched in public memory that she was revered as a living embodiment of the Goddess. Speaking exclusively to Times of India TV, Dipika revealed that she was never approached for a role in the upcoming magnum opus. 'I was never approached. I guess they've not even bothered to speak to me about it,' she said. She further explained her reluctance to be associated with Ramayana in any other capacity. 'Once I played Sita, I don't think I can play any other character in Ramayan. It's something I'm not sure about. If I was doing something in Mahabharat or Shiv Puran, I could still give it a thought, but not in a Ramayana film.' Dipika Chikhlia's portrayal of Sita was graceful, restrained, and full of devotion — qualities that made her a national icon. Her screen presence and quiet strength struck a chord with viewers of all generations. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Switch to UnionBank Rewards Card UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo So powerful was her performance that she was often invited to religious events as Sita Maa herself. Now, as Sai Pallavi steps into the revered role, comparisons are inevitable — but Dipika's legacy remains untouchable. Her role in Ramayan wasn't just acting; it was a spiritual connection shared by millions. As Ranbir, Yash, and Sai Pallavi take center stage in the new adaptation, audiences can't help but revisit the original — a show where characters weren't just loved, they were worshipped. For Dipika, Sita was once in a lifetime — and always will be.

Sri Ram Sene's protest march stopped by police in Belagavi
Belagavi: Hundreds of Sri Ram Sene activists, led by their chief Pramod Mutalik, attempted to launch the 'Ingali Chalo' protest march from Belagavi on Thursday, condemning the recent assault on cow vigilantes at Ingali village in Hukkeri taluk. However, police detained the activists before the march could commence. The protest was in response to the incident where five Sri Ram Sene members were allegedly tied to a coconut tree and assaulted by locals in Ingali village. Belagavi police have since arrested four accused and registered a suo-motu case in connection with the attack. According to Belagavi superintendent of police Dr Bhimashankar Guled, the conflict was triggered after the activists allegedly entered the residence of a Muslim family, causing panic among women inside. He said this intrusion provoked the reaction from villagers. The SP also raised concerns about the background of one of the assaulted individuals, who is a rowdy sheeter, and questioned whether he officially represented the Sri Ram Sene. Rejecting the SP's version of events as 'false' and 'misleading,' Sri Ram Sene launched the 'Ingali Chalo' campaign. Protesters first formed a human chain at Rani Channamma Circle, raised slogans against the govt, and later marched to the deputy commissioner's office to submit a memorandum. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trending in in 2025: Local network access control [Click Here] Esseps Learn More Undo As they proceeded toward Ingali, police detained several leaders, including district president Gangadhar Kulkarni and Ravikumar Kokitkar. Earlier, while addressing the gathering, Pramod Mutalik condemned the attack on SRS workers, stating, "This is not Pakistan or Afghanistan. Assaulting cow vigilantes in such a Taliban-style manner is unconstitutional. The govt must take strict action. If this repeats, the Hindu community will respond." In response to SP Guled's remarks questioning the involvement of a rowdy sheeter in the vigilante group, Mutalik defended the individual. "Today, police are branding even Hindu activists like Kalladka Prabhakar Bhat and Chakravarthy Sulibele as rowdies. This is an attempt to divert public attention from the real issue." He alleged that the administration is trying to protect the accused and suppress cow protection efforts by discrediting the activists.
