Dipika Chikhlia had earlier spoken about Sai Pallavi's version of Sita in Ramayana. During an interview with Variety India, she praised Sai's acting skills but said she wanted to watch her as Sita on screen before giving her final opinion.
The veteran actor said, “I have seen her work. She's a phenomenal actor. But I don't know how she'll look like Sita. Once we see her, we'll know. At the moment, I have no clue. The description of Sita in Tulsidas' Ramayan was that of a woman with almond eyes, a certain height, hair and skin. That's what Ramanand Sagar was looking for and he saw it in me. I know all of them are good actors. If they fit the bill, then it's good.”
