The memories of the characters associated with him as the 'Ramayan' returned on TV in the 80s, once again became fresh in people's minds. While sitting at home, people saw Lord Rama and Mother Sita and also saw the slaughter of Ravana. In this show Ram's character was played by Arun Govil, Sita's Deepika Chikhalia and Ravana's character Arvind Trivedi. But do you know that before Arvind, the entire star cast choice as Bollywood villain Amrish Puri as Raavana. Be it Arun Govil who played Ram in 'Ramayan' or the others associated with the serial, everyone liked Amrish Puri as Ravana.

With this, according to him, Amrish Puri would have fit in that role. On the other hand, as soon as Arvind Trivedi came to know that the casting of Ramanand Sagar's serial 'Ramayana' was being done, he traveled from Gujarat to Mumbai and came to meet him. At the same time, Arvind Trivedi wanted to play Kewat in this show. With this, he reached the audition with the same desire in his mind. Ramanand Sagar asks Arvind to read the script. He read the script. After this, silence fell for a while. At the same time, when Arvind started giving the script back to Ramanand Sagar, Ramanand stopped and said that he had found his Lankesh. At the same time, Arvind was surprised to hear this.

For your information, let me tell you this because he had not read any dialogue. When Arvind told Ramanand Sagar that I did not read any dialogue at all. In response, he said that 'He understood my movement and understood that he is capable of becoming his Ravan. He needs such a Ravan for 'Ramayana' which has the power of intellect and is sharp on the face. Thus, in 'Ramayana', Arvind Trivedi got the role of Ravana in place of Amrish Puri. The last episode of 'Ramayan' has aired on TV. After which 'Uttar Ramayana' will be telecast from April 19. After the slaying of Ravana in 'Ramayana', 'Ramayana' continued to trend on social media. Users started wishing Dussehra on Ravana's slaughter. Even mimes began to form.
