Sunil Lahri on Alia Bhatt playing the role of Sita: “I am not sure how convincing she will look” : Bollywood News

Despite creating hype before its release, Adipurush faced criticism for various reasons, especially the depiction of characters and controversial dialogues. Amid this, reports of Nitesh Tiwari planning to make a film based on Ramayana with Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt are surfacing on the internet. While neither the director nor the actors have confirmed it yet, Ramayan fame Sunil Lahri has shared his thoughts on the news.

Sunil Lahri on Alia Bhatt playing the role of Sita: “I am not sure how convincing she will look”

In an interview with Hindustan Times, Sunil, who played the role of Laxman in Ramanand Sagar’s TV show, asserted, “Both of them are very good actors and I think will do justice to the subject. Ranbir is a very good choice for the role of Ram and can deliver a good performance.”

The veteran actor further added, “Alia too is talented but I think if Alia had done the role of Sita five years earlier, she would have done more justice to the character. It’s my personal opinion. I feel Alia has changed in the last few years. I am not sure how convincing she will look as Sita now.”

Besides this, he also shared his opinion on Sunny Singh’s performance in Adipurush. He said, “Actually, none of the characters were very well defined. The expressions on the faces of Lakshman (Sunny Singh) and Raghava (Prabhas) were almost similar. In Ramayana, Ram and Lakshman have very different personalities. While Ram was ice, Lakshman was fire. It was also very clearly shown in Ramayan. There was a stark difference between the two. Here, almost all the characters looked non-defined.”
