'cherished memories of watching the Ramayana'- Sujay Reu
Sujay Reu, who essays the role of Lord Ram in Shrimad Ramayan, said, “I have cherished memories of watching the Ramayana on TV and listening to my grandmother’s stories about Lord Ram and Raavan. As I grew older, I came to appreciate the deeper significance of Dussehra and how it symbolizes the victory of good over evil. While I’ve never participated in a Ramleela, I’ve enjoyed watching many performances across India. It’s quite surreal to think that now I am playing Lord Ram. My message to fans is to embody the wisdom and integrity of Lord Ram in our daily lives. In today’s fast-paced world, it’s crucial to maintain our composure and learn valuable lessons from his life.”

'We must rise above our inner Ravana'- Aakash Ahuja
Aakash Ahuja, said, “I have pleasant memories related to Dussehra, especially when my brother and I dressed up as Lord Ram and Lakshman for a local event. It made me connect deeply with the values that Lord Ram represents. Dussehra serves as a reminder that we all carry different characters within us. We must rise above our inner Ravana and embody the virtues of Ram. To my fans, I must say: embrace the lessons of Dussehra in your lives and strive to conquer negativity.”
'Dussehra was a time of sweet rice and jalebis'- Sooraj Thapar
Sooraj Thapar shared, “During my childhood, Dussehra was a time of sweet rice and jalebis, along with watching Ramleela with my family. I vividly remember the excitement of seeing Ravan set ablaze. This year, even though I am in Chandigarh and my kids are in Mumbai, I plan to create something special for them to celebrate our traditions. On Dussehra, I urge everyone to let go of anger and embrace forgiveness. Just as Lord Ram defeated Ravan with truth, releasing past issues brings peace and allows us to focus on happiness.”
