Ayodhya to witness grand Ramlila this year: Ravi Kishan

BJP MP and actor Ravi Kishan has said that Ramlila will be a grand affair in Ayodhya this year. He said since Ram Temple is being constructed after a long wait, the Ramlila will be special with film stars playing various characters in it.

Ayodhya: The city of Ayodhya, which has been a centre of attraction for lakhs of people in India and abroad after the Supreme Court allotted the disputed land to Hindus to build Ram Temple last year, would see a grand Ramlila on the occasion of Dussehra.

Announcing the plan to organise a "grand Ramlila" here, actor Ravi Kishan told media persons that it would not be a usual event as film stars and actors would play different characters in the proposed Ramlila this year.

"No one knows that I used to play the character of Sita during my childhood days," the BJP MP from Gorakhpur said. He said actors such as Raza Murad, Vindu Dara Singh and Manoj Tiwari will play various roles in the Ramlila, which is to be organised on a grand level with a cost of crore of rupees.

The actor also said that names of all actors, who would participate in the event, are yet to be announced.

The Ramlila, which is to start from October 17, will culminate on October 25 on Dussehra.
