Ramayan
is
being
re-run
on
Doordarshan
and
people
are
enjoying
the
mythological
show
like
never
before.
A
few
days
ago,
netizens
made
hilarious
memes
on
Laxman.
They
were
quite
impressed
with
his
angry
young
man
look
and
compared
him
to
Amitabh
Bachchan.
Sunil
Lahri,
who
played
the
character
of
Laxman
on
the
show,
has
now
reacted
to
his
memes.
He
said
that
he
is
liking
and
enjoying
his
memes.
Sunil
Lahri
was
quoted
by
Koimoi
as
saying,
"I
have
seen
many
memes
that
a
lot
of
people
have
sent.
Even
my
brother's
children
in
the
house
send
me
the
memes.
I
am
liking
it.
I
am
enjoying
it.
It's
said
that
you
are
popular
and
that's
why
they
make
these
memes.
I
am
honoured.
I
feel
honoured
to
be
a
part
of
the
memes."
Apparently,
Sunil
was
supposed
to
play
another
character
(Shatrughna)
in
Ramayan,
but
since
the
actor
(Shashi
Puri),
who
was
supposed
to
play
the
role
of
Laxman,
backed
out,
Sunil
got
to
play
the
role.
It
has
to
be
recalled
that
Ramayan
received
record-breaking
TRPs
and
Doordarshan
became
the
most
watched
channel.
Regarding
the
TRPs,
Sunil
told
the
portal,
"It
was
expected.
I
was
sure
about
it
because
I
have
been
getting
the
response
on
social
media.
There
was
a
demand
for
that
the
programme
should
be
re-telecast.
Also,
I
think
people
who
have
seen
the
show
earlier,
they
have
spoken
so
much
about
it
to
their
family
members
and
the
younger
generation.
There
was
a
lot
of
curiosity
among
the
youngsters
and
the
audience
who
have
not
seen
it
earlier.
So
they
wanted
to
see
what
was
the
craze
and
was
so
great
about
this
programme.
Ultimately,
it's
the
content,
the
sentiments
of
the
show
and
the
feeling
is
so
strong,
that
has
worked.
It's
a
really
good
sign
that
good
content
always
work
among
the
audience."
