Voice Over - As you can se Ram ji and Ravan ji getting ready
But why are we showing you this ?
Because today Ram aka Ashish and Ravan aka Kartik will reveal their secrets that what they had to do to get into this look
First lets talk about Ramji i.e Ashish... To play Ramji he already has lot of responsibilities but has to carry the heavy mukut too .. So how heavy is Ramji's mukut ?
Ashish - That mukut is quite heavy , about 7.5 kg, so its difficult , but fun as well (smiles)
As you wear the mukut you get a feeling of responsibility and you need to fulfill it with a lot of respect .. And as you take it off , you get a lot of relief too (again smiles)
VO - Woah ! 7.5 kgs that's why you keep exercising on the sets to handle that mukut 😆
Not only Ashish but Kartik has also put in a lot of efforts and he is sharing that with us ...
JK- I did a lot of research about Ravan, I started shiv tandav lessons, went for dance classes for one month...
And morning evening I was working out as they wanted a fit body for Ravan...
VO - Kartik tell us what special you did to get into the role
JK- I was quite huge at the time of auditions hence I had to cut down little bit, did workouts since three months, It's actually difficult you know to maintain your body but its fun at the same time...
You will not get this opportunity again (smiles)
VO - Serial people asked you to reduce so much and gave you such a huge costume to wear...
Like Ramji Ravan's mukut is also heavy and has two parts, and everywhere in his costume you can see lion carved...
Ram ji and Ravan ji's costumes are so heavy that whenever possible they take it off and wear their casuals ...
When Ashish feels cold he wears a shawl above his costume only
What dedication these guys have !
