Dipika Chikhlia, who is better known as Ramayan’s Sita, is all set to play veteran freedom fighter Sarojini Naidu. The actress took to social media to share the first look poster of the film. Titled as ‘Sarojini’, the poster shows Dipika looking away from the camera with huge crowds in the background. Sharing the poster, Dipika wrote: “#sarojini #sarojininaudu1st look #poster” With minimal make-up, a middle-aged Dipika as Sarojini looks hopeful and reflective.

The tagline reads in Hindi: “Swatantra ki ek nayika ki unkahi kahaani’. A movie announcement for Dipika seems to have come at the right time.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
