Ramayan: Did You Know? Each Episode Of The Show Cost Around 9 Lakhs But The Returns Were Really HUGE

Ramanand Sagar’s Ramayan is a cult classic. Originally aired during 1987, the show revamped the glory during its re-run amid the lockdown. It brought the yesteryear actors like Arun Govil, Dipika Chikhlia and others, in the limelight yet again.

During its re-run this year, it managed to fetch the same amount of love and appreciation, just like it did during original days. The actors expressed their happiness as they were receiving the messages from even today’s tech-savvy generation. It wouldn’t be an overstatement if we say that Ramayan once again united the families, which otherwise, were isolated due to technology.

Speaking about the epic mythological show, we got our hands on one of the interesting facts of the show and it’s related to its budget. As per India Today, each episode of Ramayan cost around 9 lakhs. It was the most expensive Indian show of its time. Investing such amount of money would be really stressful during the late 1980s, but the risk had eventually paid off.
