Ramayan Actors Were Approached To Do Sensuous Photoshoot
Arun was quoted by IANS as saying, "While we were shooting for Ramayan, a lot of renowned magazines approached me and the other cast members to do sensuous photoshoots for them. They were so desperate that they were ready to pay hefty amounts of money for it. But none of us accepted their offers and we believed that our audiences' look up to and rest their faith in us.

After some time, we didn't need to wear them; by just looking at them we felt itchy)."
Kapil Asks...
Kapil also asked as to how it felt as they were treated like real Gods. He asked, "Jab kabhi ye log bahar jaate the, log inki aarti karna shuru kardete the, toh kabhi dimaag mein toh aata hoga ki apunich hi bhagwaan hai (referring to Nawazuddin Siddiqui's Sacred Games dialogue)."
