Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana Part 1 is undoubtedly one of the most-awaited films of the year. The makers have already released a teaser and a song of the film, and on Wednesday, they unveiled a character poster of veteran actor Arun Govil, who will portray the role of King Dashrath in the movie. The official X handle of the movie tweeted, "He once brought Ram to life for a generation. Now, he returns to the world of Ramayana as the King of Ayodhya. Arun Govil as King Dashrath (sic)."
For the uninitiated, Govil played the role of Lord Ram in TV show Ramayan, which was released in 1987. Check out the poster below...
Netizens React To Arun Govil's Poster
Well, netizens are not much happy with the poster. A netizen tweeted, "That beard is too artificial and dosen't look good.. He was the only negative in that trailer. Waiting for Rama, Ravana, Jadayu, Parashuram posters (sic)."
Another X user wrote, "It's Done Ramayana wtf is this poster it's look so bad it's look like studio lighting worse than serial (sic)." One more netizen tweeted, "The last two posters were best. But with this one i think the head of Dasratha ji looking odd. It seems like the head is placed in the body and do not give any natural view. i would rate the poster 7.5 (sic)."
