Ramayan had earned a loyal audience which ensured to watch each and every episode. As per excerpts from the book ‘An Epic Life: Ramanand Sagar: From Barsaat to Ramayan’, people would postpone and reschedule important events to ensure that no one misses even a single episode of the mythological classic. An interesting incident that happened was when a passenger train which travelled from Patna to Delhi every Sunday would take an unscheduled halt at a station named Rampur and the entire staff along with the passengers would watch Ramayan and then resume their journey! People would go berserk if there was a power outage when Ramayan would be telecast!
