Written, produced and directed by Ramanand Sagar, Ramayan, a must-see on Sunday morning in the 80s, aired for the first time on Doordarshan in 1987 and the series has acquired cult status over the years. It lasted 33 years in 2020. The show starred Arun Govil, Dipika Chikhlia and Sunil Lahri as Lord Ram, Sita and Lakshman, respectively. The show also featured Lalita Pawar as Manthra, Dara Singh as Hanuman and Arvind Trivedi as Ravana. Ramayan was broadcast on Doordarshan during the lockout.

Titled Sarojini, the film will be directed by Akash Nayak and Dhiraj Mishra, and produced by Kanu Bhai Patel.
