While Shukla is yet to give a nod to the role, according to a SpotboyE report, the makers are eager to cast him. "Well-built and 6 feet tall, Sidarth has the physique to carry off the role. He is extremely popular and also a good actor. Hanuman is not an easy character to portray. So considering everything, Sid is a good choice for the role," a source told the entertainment portal.

"It all started from this very wedding. Sita and Rama's wedding was when these wedding festivities came into existence. The makers have planned a beautiful on-air campaign wherein with every festivity, they will be showcasing the importance of the ritual be it haldi ceremony or sindoor (vermillion) or varmala (garland) exchange between the bride and the groom," IANS quoted Bhargavi Chirmule, who plays the role of Sita's mother Sunaina, as saying.
