Sunil Lahiri, who played Lakshman on Ramanand Sagar’s iconic mythological show, Ramayan, was quite close to Arvind Trivedi, the veteran actor who immortalised the role of Ravan. He had been in constant touch with his daughters. In an exclusive chat with IndiaToday.in, Sunil Lahri fondly remembered Arvind Trivedi and also revealed he died peacefully, surrounded by his family.

It was Sunil, who played Lakshman in Ramayan, might have had clashes with Ravan on the show, but he was the closest to the veteran actor, who will always be remembered for his portrayal of Lankesh. He said, “I shared a beautiful relationship with Arvind ji. My relation with him grew manifold after Ramayan than during Ramayan. He was a nice and humble human being, a father figure to me. Very rarely do you find a person like him, so sorted and clean-hearted. He had a great sense of humour. In fact, in Ramayan, I got along most with him.”
Sunil was one of the first celebrities to condole Arvind Trivedi’s death on social media.
