Indian actress and politician Hema Malini, who will be portraying Hindu goddess Sita in a special performance on Ramayana as a part of the grand consecration ceremony of Ram Temple, said she is 'getting goosebumps seeing and experiencing everything' in the holy north Indian city of Ayodhya on Monday.

The 75-year-old actress voiced her emotions seeing the mood of festivity in Ayodhya when she wrote on X: "The world awaits with bated breath the Pran Pratishtha of Ram Lalla when he returns to his rightful place in Ayodhya. I too am here amidst all this air of excitement, when everyone is chanting Jai Shri Ram and I am getting goosebumps seeing and experiencing everything Jai Shri Ram!"

Hema Malini has charmed her fans  in several Bollywood blockbusters in her long career spanning decades.

Apart from movies, Hema Malini  is also a trained classical dancer and known for her live dance performances.

Hema Malini's recent performance as Sita

The veteran actress, who is a Member of the Indian Parliament for the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party, reportedly performed as Sita in a dance drama on January 17.

Her performance alongside Vishal Nayak as Lord Ram left the audience in awe. 

A  regular user of social media platforms, Hema Malini shared glimpses of her recent performance on Instagram for her fans.

She wrote: "Tulsi Peetadishwar ( Chitrakoot jagat guru) Shri Rambhadracharya ji celebrated his 75th birthday in Ayodhya as Amrit Mahotsav on Jan 17 . I had the good fortune to perform Ramayan, in which I essayed the role of Ram’s Sita."

Ayodhya gears up for Ram Temple inauguration today

A mood of festivity has gripped Ayodhya where celebrities and politicians have assembled for the consecration ceremony.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be present in Ayodhya to lead the celebration.

Ayodhya has been turned into a fortress as tight security arrangements have been made ahead of the consecration ceremony.

The town witnessed violence in 1992 when a mob destroyed a 16th-century mosque which stood at the site, which was once a Hindu temple of Lord Ram.

A major section of Hindus claimed that the site was the birthplace of Lord Ram before Muslim Mughals razed a temple at the spot to build the Babri Masjid.

In a landmark verdict in 2019, the Supreme Court handed over the land to the Hindu community and ordered to allot a separate plot to Muslims.
