King Dasharatha and her
Queen Kausalya were among the best pair on screen and off-screen too. The husband wife duo Jayshree Gadkar and Bal Dhuri
were accomplished Marathi film artistes and had acted together in 8 films
including Ramayan TV series.
This is in record that Jayshree
Gadkar wanted to play Keikeyi when she was already offered Kausalya. Ramanand
Sagar, director of Ramayan had said he would give her the role provided she
found another actress to play Kaushalya. Well, she never found any. Another incident
related to Jayshree, she was not present during the death rites of Dasharatha.
Jayshree Gadkar passed
away in 2008 after acting in more than 250 films most of them Marathi and few
hindi film that included Saranga (1961), Sampoorna Mahabharat (1983) and
Lav-Kush (1967). Bal Dhuri has acted in hindi films like Tere Mere Sapne
(1996), Lapun Chapun (2006) and Eeshwar (1989).
