Janaki, Thanks once again for this lovely effort, for this wonderful thread commemorating Ramayan.
I was in seventh standard during the time this show aired. In spite of having just two national channels way back then, Ramayan was the show that my parents had permitted me to watch. Reading of all books was allowed but as a show, Ramayan was the first that I had watched.
There used to be so much anxiety and anticipation for the weekend episode and this was also a reason to finish up all the homework by Saturday to watch the show peacefully.
Arun Govil as Ram, Deepika Chikaliya as Sita, Dara Singh as Hanuman, Arvind Trivedi as Ravan were and will remain the best.
Of the scenes that I always recollect is Ram winning Sita at the Swayamvar, Bharat returning with Ram's Paduka, Lakshman's reaction watching Sabari tasting the fruit first before offering Ram, Sita Haran, Jatayu helping Sita, Hanuman bringing the Sanjeevani, Vibhheshana's support,etc to name a few.

Thank you all for the beautiful testimonials so far; I've added more excerpts from them to the post on the first page.

So tell us more, guys! Any particular songs, scenes, or dialogues that are of special importance to you, either for making you laugh, cry, or teaching you a lesson you'll never forget? For me, what Shri Ram tells Bharat just before sending him back to Ayodhya to take care of its throne for 14 years - "Prem kiya hai, toh bin mol bik jaao" - is something that I will never be able to forget... it constantly comes back to me and reminds me about the selfless nature of true love, whether it be for other human beings or God Himself. For laughs, I remember Lakshman's exchange with a furious Parshuram after Sita's Swayamvar... when the sage says for him to go away because he can no longer stand the sight of him, he cleverly responds - "aap aankhein bandh kar dijiye munivar, main dikhaayi nahin dunga!" 😆 So... over to you guys! Memorable moments?

@ Vis - couldn't stop cracking up at your labels wali story yaar 😆 can't wait to hear more!

You have already mentioned one of my favourite dialogues - Lakshman's 'aap aankhen band kar lijiye...'. It was great. 😆 Actually I didn't notice that scene much in the original run as I was a kid and the real essence of these scenes didn't sink in.
It's only when I saw them on VHS and later on Sony TV (in 1998 or so) that I really started appreciating each and every little dialogue and moment.
Some of my favourites are...
1. When Lakshman and the other rishis build the kutia at Chitrakoot, there is one moment where someone places a bundle of logs on Lakshman's shoulder. At that moment Ram gives a little smile and Lakshman smiles back. This is that moment.
2. During the fight with Indrajit, Lakshman is about to use the Brahmastra and Ram tells Lakshman 'adharm dwara prapt ki hui vijay kabhi kalyankari nahin hoti hai'. Excellent. 👏
3. I loved how Ram redirected Shurpanakha to Lakshman and when Shurpanakha asked 'akela hai?', Ram gives a naughty smile and says 'haan, vann mein to akela hi hai'.😆
Then she goes to Lakshman and says 'Lakshmanji aap akele ho'...to which Lakshman says 'aapko kya kasht hai'.🤣
4. When Hanuman goes to bring the Sanjivani, the herbs on the hill suddenly vanish. At that time Hanuman explains to the devas there...'He divya aushadhiyon ke sanrakshak devtaon...'...I loved how he explained his purpose, no beating around the bush, no buttering...crisp and to the point. Teaches us a good lesson on attending interviews. (Surprisingly that part is missing from Sandeepvera's youtube channel - Episode 69-02)
Will add more as and when I remember.
