Now, Ramayana has once again become the talk of the town with Nitesh Tiwari’s directorial in the making. Recently, it was revealed that Arun Govil has been roped in to play King Dasharath, the father of Lord Ram, in the new film.

While sharing her thoughts on Arun Govil’s casting, Dipika said that she finds it hard to relate to. “I have seen him as Ram and I’ve seen myself as Sita. For me to see him as Dashrath is really a little out of context,” she told Times of India.
