On Her Birth Anniversary

Dipika Chikhlia rose to prominence becoming a household name playing Sita in Ramanand Sagar’s TV series “Ramayan” (1987). It was the most watched show during lockdown.

Her debut film was ‘Sun Meri Laila ‘(1983), opposite Raj Kiran . She also did a few films with Rajesh Khanna including “Rupaye Dus Crore”. I was present on the sets & had interviewed Rajesh Khanna & Kiran Kumar. The film starring Rajesh Khanna, Kiran Kumar ,Chunky Pandey, Sadashiv Amrapurkar & Amrita Singh was directed by one of my friends Sikander Bharti.
