Actor Arun Govil, who became a national icon in the eighties playing Ram in the eighties serial Ramayan, recalled there was a time when the cast of the series was approached for sensuous photoshoots!

"While we were shooting for Ramayan, a lot of renowned magazines approached me and the other cast members to do sensuous photoshoots for them. They were so desperate that they were ready to pay hefty amounts of money for it. But none of us accepted their offers and we believed that our audiences' look up to and rest their faith in us. We could never take the chance of breaking their trust for money," said Arun.
