Gurmeet Choudhary Shares Insights on Playing Ram and His Confidence in Ranbir Kapoor’s Ramayana
Gurmeet Choudhary, currently captivating audiences as Guru in Netflix’s Yeh Kaali Kaali Ankhein Season 2, is a seasoned actor widely celebrated for his iconic portrayal of Lord Ram in Ramanand Sagar’s Ramayan. Recently, he shared heartfelt reflections on his journey and expressed confidence in Ranbir Kapoor’s ability to excel in similar roles. Ranbir is set to appear in Nitesh Tiwary’s Ramayana alongside Sai Pallavi.
Reflecting on his early days, Gurmeet said, “When I worked on Ramayan, I was just 23 years old. The show was produced by Ramanand Sagar, who also created the iconic Ramayan featuring Arun Govil sir. Before that, I was completely unknown to the audience and had never appeared on screen. That’s exactly what Ramanand Sagar believed in—when portraying a divine figure, the actor should have no prior public image or background, allowing viewers to connect with the character devotionally.”
Gurmeet, who captured hearts as Ram, understands the depth and responsibility of embodying such a revered character. Speaking about Ranbir Kapoor, he added, “Ranbir is an exceptional actor who brings every role to life. Audiences loved me as Ram because they saw the essence of Ram in me, and I am confident that Ranbir will also do complete justice to this role.”
Known for his versatility and dedication, Gurmeet is winning accolades for his powerful performance in Yeh Kaali Kaali Ankhein Season 2. His journey from a newcomer to one of Bollywood’s most beloved faces is truly inspiring. Admiring actors who take on significant roles, Gurmeet’s reflections embody the wisdom and humility of an artist deeply committed to his craft.
