Shri Ramayan Katha is a futuristic take on the Ramayan, promising a grand cinematic interpretation of the epic. But what caught everyone’s attention is not the concept—it’s the casting choice that has set social media ablaze.
The makers have chosen Anjali Arora to play Sita, which has sparked a wave of backlash online. Anjali, popularly known as the Kacha Badam girl, gained fame through viral reels that made her an internet sensation overnight.
Many people online feel that her past image doesn’t fit the spiritual role of Sita. Trollers claim she became famous through bold content and allege she even appeared in an inappropriate reel. These claims have fueled outrage over her selection.
Social media users have accused the filmmakers of disrespecting cultural values by casting Anjali. They argue that such a sacred character deserves a more traditional representation, calling her selection “insensitive” and “controversial.”
Anjali has responded firmly, saying her hard work and talent earned her the role. She insists that her past doesn’t define her and urges viewers to focus on her performance. She believes every artist deserves a chance to prove themselves beyond online perceptions.
