Indian television has seen many versions of Ramayana over the years, but the Arun Govil and Dipika Chikhlia-starrer, Ramayan, remains one of the most iconic Indian TV shows to date. Ramayan, written, produced and directed by Ramanand Sagar, first aired on Doordarshan in 1987, and acquired a cult status over the years. Recently, Arun, who played Lord Ram in the series, was spotted at the airport with a woman holding his feet out of respect for him and his famous TV character.
