Good good. Carry on trying. No Dara Singh is not the answer. He did many other roles in the movies like Ghatotkach, Bheem, Shivji etc. However that is not the criteria either. You can just stick to serials rather than movies to arrive at the correct logic and the answer like Vrish is trying (And Dara Singh did play a role other than Hanuman in Mytho serial also). Should I confirm whether his current thinking is on the right track or not?

Where is Lola?

OK. Now before giving the correct answer finally, I add few more options. Sulakshana Khatri, Kshama Raj, Mukesh Khanna, Virendra Razdan, Arvind Trivedi. These names I added after further google search results after your answers I got.

Ok. The correct answer was actually Vilas Raj. All others played multiple mytho serial roles for different production companies. Vilas Raj played Lavnasur and Kans both for Sagar Arts only i.e. only 1 production house.

Arun Govil - Ram in Ramayan (Sagar Arts) and Ram in Jay Veer Hanuman (Sony TV - Padmalaya telefilms). He was also there in Vishwamitra in some role.

Dara Singh - Hanuman in Ramayan (Sagar Arts), Hanuman in Mahabharat (B R films), Kesari in Jay Veer Hanuman (Sony TV - Padmalaya telefilms).

Samir Rajda - Shatrughna in RSR and Uttar in BRC MB.

Mulraj Rajda - Janak in RSR and Kulpurohit of Shantanu and father of Gandharva woman in Van parva (dual role) in BRC MB and also probably Vashishth in Vishwamitra as Sattvik said.

Raj Premi - Shishupal in RS SK (Sagar Arts) and Kans in MS JSK (Sagar Pictures).

Vinod Kapur - Dushasan in MB and Vibhishan in Vishnu Puran/Ramayan (BRC) and Vibhishan in ASR (Sagar Arts).

Surendra Pal - Drona in BRC MB, Ravan in BRC Ramayan and Daksha in DkDM.

Gufi Paintal - Shakuni in BRC MB and Shakuni in Sagar Pictures DBSK.

Punit Issar - Duryodhan in BRC MB and Jarasandh in Sagar Pictures DBSK.


Names I further added:
Sulakshana Khatri - Mandavi of RSR, Rohini of RSSK and Dai maa (Shambrasur in disguise) of DBSK.

Kshama Raj (Mrs Vilas Raj) - Mrs Lavnasur in RSR, Mrs Kans (Asthi or Prapti) in RSSK and Rohini in BRC MB.

And Virendra Razdan & Arvind Trivedi must have played some role along with Mukesh Khanna in lead role in Vishwamitra.

Here is the link for the same (which Sattvik also must have found or must have seen the show):

Lol. Of course. I have kept the field open for everyone. Anyone can ask. Go ahead.😊 I thought this could have more participation or quick answer but Lola is busy. I have another serial based question ready in mind but I will ask that after some rounds of questions (after many pages) and not immediately now.😆

What is common to:

Harshana, Rochana, Mohana, Shoshana and Marana

P.S : I don't think Google is of any help here, so...should I give a hint?

Oh they are there in google if you simply copy paste your question line. All five names. They are the names of five arrows. The very first google search result. And strangely speaking, word to word same spelling, order and punctuation marks and also the word 'and' between the 4th and 5th name.😆 Is the last one Marana or MaaraNa? 4th one will be pronounced as ShoshaNa and not Shoshana. Similarly the first name HarshaNa. In the 2nd and 3rd name I guess it should be 'n' only and not 'N'.

Answer: These are the names of the five arrows shot by Kamadeva on Shiva.

I thought I had made my question 'google proof', but Shivang managed to get it right. 😃

Well Done. 👏

I did not copy / paste from any source but typed each word painstakingly. 😊 I was searching for something else in Shiva Puran, when this line caught my eye. I was surprised that the arrows of Kamadeva even had names. I thought it would be a useful piece of information to know.

And, no I did not type it phonetically. Hence I did not pay attention to 'n' and 'N'

I think it should be 'maraNa'- most probably meaning death / loss of senses. MaaraNa doesn't make sense because 'Maara' is another name for Kamadeva.

I have tried to throw more light on the names here
