Exclusive - Gurmeet and I would actually fight about who would get into the makeup seat first, so the other could catch up on some sleep: Debina Bonnerjee

Mythological show 'Ramayan' starring Debina Bonnerjee and Gurmeet Choudhary has received a warm welcome from the audiences on its rerun amidst the lockdown.
While people are happy to be watching it on air once again, many are also now wanting to know the back stories of how the shooting would take place, and actress Debina Bonnerjee revealed some secrets from the show's shoot back then.
Debina revealed that getting into the costumes of Ram and Sita was initially the most challenging part of the shoot for Gurmeet and her, because it took a lot of effort and time to get into the character's attire.
Speaking about some makeup room secrets, Debina shares, "I remember how taxing the first few days of the shoot were for Gurmeet and I, because getting into our costumes with all the excess makeup and jewellery took really long. Though over time we managed to get ready really fast, because we then finally got used to the routine and somehow it increased our speed of getting into our attire as well. But due to the long hour shoots, we were always low on sleep. Gurmeet and I would actually fight about who would get into the makeup seat first, so the other could catch up on some sleep in the meantime. Though we would just aim at getting ready as quickly as we could, to rest for a while before getting onto set for the day."
