Actor Akhilendra Mishra, is best known for essaying the role of Kroor Singh in the 1990s TV show Chandrakanta. He says he always wanted to play Ravan, and his dream was realized in the 2008 teleserial “Ramayan”.
“I always wanted to play Ravan. ‘Ramayan’ was my first ever mythological serial. I had a routine set for myself. I would daily visit the Shiv mandir in Baroda and recite Shiv Tandav and meditate for an hour before reaching the set. Since the temple was in the Army premises, I had got special permission to visit the temple,” he recalled.
