Mumbai, Aug 3 (NationPress) Actor Ravie Dubey is utterly captivated by Varanasi. The star, who will portray Lakshman in the forthcoming Indian epic ‘Ramayana’, took to Instagram on Sunday to share a behind-the-scenes clip from a recent project.

Although the specifics of the project remain undisclosed, he made sure to tag his production company, Dreamiyata Dramaa. The footage features a Jimmy Jib crane elevating to capture the stunning Kashi Vishwanath Temple along with its iconic gopuram.

In a heartfelt caption, the actor expressed that despite having traveled extensively around the globe, he and his wife Sargun Mehta feel an undeniable connection to Varanasi. He described how the spiritual ambiance enveloping the city makes him feel unified with the universe.

He articulated, “@dreamiyata filming schedule brought us to Varanasi, yet the experience gave us so much more than just work. Sargun and I have explored numerous places worldwide, but none have touched our souls quite like Varanasi. There’s an essence in its air, something ancient and eternal—an indescribable emotion, a silence that resonates, a presence that humbles you. Spiritually, emotionally, cinematically, Kashi is a phenomenon. We felt profoundly moved, transformed, and inspired by its character, texture, and ancient rhythm.”

He continued, “It feels like a cinematic story waiting to be told. We pray to the deities that one day, from Dreamiyata, we can create something that doesn’t merely depict Varanasi but encapsulates its essence. Something that the world can see and feel the divine through.”

The Kashi Vishwanath Temple is a revered Hindu pilgrimage site and ranks among the twelve Jyotirlinga shrines. The original temple, known as the Adi Vishveshwar Temple, was destroyed by Mohammad of Ghor during his invasion of India. It was later reconstructed by Man Singh I and Todar Mal under the Mughal emperor Akbar.
