Yesterday actor Dipika Chikhlia, best known for playing the role of Sita in Ramanand Sagar's mythology serial "Ramayan", announced that she is set to portray political leader and poet Sarojini Naidu in a biopic. Titled "Sarojini", the film is directed by Akash Nayak and Dhiraj Mishra, and produced by Kanu Bhai Patel.
The 55-year-old actor posted the update on Instagram as she shared the first look from the film. It is written by Dhiraj Mishra and Yashomati Devi. Dipika's last cinematic outing was 2019's "Bala", starring Ayushmann Khurrana, Yami Gautam and Bhumi Pednekar.
Dipika, like many of the leading cast of the Ramanand Sagar’s ’80s mythological TV show Ramayan, found herself back in focus, after the success of the show. The re-run of the popular show has emerged as the most-viewed TV show world-over with 7.7 crore viewership as of April 16, according to DD India. The official Twitter handle had tweeted about the same. Ramanand Sagar’s Ramayan comprised 78 episodes, largely based on Valmiki’s Ramayana and Tulsidas’ Ramcharitmanas.
