Sonia who was last seen in the TV shows Faltu and Aaina, is happy to be playing the role of Kaikeyi in the show.
Says Sonia, “This is not the first time that I am doing mythology. It feels nice to be doing this show. I have mostly played negative shades on TV. However, Kaikeyi cannot be termed as a negative character, as initially she will be shown as a very good and loving mother. There are shades to Kaikeyi. She got brainwashed by Mantra and sent Ram and Sita into exile. However, she later repented and regretted her act too. It is a wonderful unit and I am happy to be a part of Kakbhushundi Ramayan.”
The show has Pawan Sharma playing Ram, Vaibhavi Kapoor as Sita, Devesh Sharma as Lakshman, Raviz Thakur as Raavan, Danish Akhtar as Hanuman, Sandeep Mohan as Dashrath.
