Ramayan's Ram aka Arun Govil recently took to his Twitter handle to reveal that no government has ever recognise his performance for the mythological show. Here's how fans reacted to his shocking revelation.
Arun Govil, who is best known for his role as Lord Ram in 'Ramayan' recently made some shocking revelations on Twitter. The actor revealed that despite being popular and appreciated for his character, he has not received any award ever. He said that none of the Governments, State as well as Centre, recognise his performance on the mythological show. Yes, the actor revealed that in his four-decade-old career, he has never been awarded for his contribution in Ramanand Sagar's most-watched show.
Sharing his sadness over the same, the veteran actor said that he hails from Uttar Pradesh (UP), but the government there also never awarded him. Not only this, he has been living in the state of Maharashtra for more than 50 years, but even the Maha govt has not honoured him with an award.

Further, Arun also expressed that he did not get any offers of commercial films after playing Ram on the show. But, the actor believes that everything comes with good and bad, and has a positive and a negative side. So, if he wouldn't have starred in the epic saga, he wouldn't have been remembered and celebrated the way he is being today by multiple fans.
Within moments of Arun's big revelation, netizens went berserk. They couldn't fathom the fact that why such a great actor has not been credited for his unmatchable work yet. Many came out in his support and shared their opinions on it. While some thought that he must be awarded a trophy, others felt that essaying the role of Lord Ram is itself an award, and there's nothing more precious than that.
