On 25th Jan 1987, a hastily shot pilot of a TV series was telecast on Doordarshan.

Shot in two weeks and allegedly of poor quality, this marked the beginning of the third telling of the Ramayan, following the versions created by Valmiki and Tulsidas.
Today is the 103rd birthday of Ramanand Sagar, the man who brought the Ramayan into the hearts, minds and TV sets of millions of Indians in the late 80s.

Did you know he made movies such as Charas, Jalte Badan and Romance before making spirituality great again? Read on.
He was born Chandramauli Chopra.

His name was changed when his maternal grandmother adopted him. His father DN Chopra remarried and had another family. Did you know Vidhu Vinod Chopra is Sagar’s half-brother?

Another Chopra, Baldev Raj, produced the other epic, Mahabharat.
