Mumbai, Feb 27 (IANS) Actor Ravie Dubey on Friday shared a divine coincidence from his life, revealing that almost a year before being confirmed to play Lord Lakshmana in Nitesh Tiwary’s ‘Ramayana’, he had unknowingly visited Shri Lakshman’s temple in Lucknow while shooting for Lakhan Leela Bhargava.
Ravie took to Instagram, where he shared a throwback video of himself sitting in an interview with his wife Sargun and talking about featuring in the Ranbir Kapoor-starrer.
Taking to the caption section, he said that during the filming of the show ‘Lakhan Leela Bhargava’, where he portrayed a character named Lakhan, he happened to visit Shri Lakshman’s temple in Lakshmanpuri purely by coincidence.
“Almost exactly An year before i got confirmed to play ‘Lakshman’ in ‘Ramayana’ I purely by coincidence landed up at Shri Lakshman’s temple in Lakshmanpuri (Lucknow) while filming a show called ‘Lakhan Leela Bhargava’ where I played a character called ‘Lakhan’,” Ravie wrote.
