Talking about Om Raut kissing Kriti Sanon controversy, Dipika said that Kriti is an actress from today's generation and kissing and hugging someone can be considered as a sweet gesture for her, but she must have never thought of herself as 'Sita'. The actress then said that today's actors and actresses take characters as a role and don't care about it anymore after the project is over. Elaborating on the same, Dipika shared:

"I believe this is a big problem with actors of this generation, as they neither get into the character nor understand its emotions. For them, Ramayana must have been just a film. Perhaps they haven't connected with it spiritually. Kriti is an actress of today's generation. In today's era, kissing or hugging someone is considered a sweet gesture. She must have never thought of herself as Sita Ji. It becomes a matter of emotions. I have lived the character of Sita, while today's actresses just consider it a role. After the film or project is over, they don't care anymore."

In the same interview, Dipika Chikhlia recalled the days when she played the iconic role of 'Sita' in the popular show, Ramayan. Talking about the same, the actress shared that when they used to shoot for the same show, people never dared to call them by their names, some even came to touch their feet. The actress shared that they were treated in such a way as if they were God. Sharing her views on Om Raut kissing Kriti, the actress then shared that she never did anything that would hurt people's sentiments. Talking about the same, Dipika revealed:

"If we about us. No one dared to call us by our names on the set. When we were in our characters, many people would come and touch our feet right on the set. It was a different era. At that time, they didn't see us as actors; they considered us Gods. We couldn't even hug anyone, let alone a kiss. Adipurush actors will get busy with their next projects after the release (of the film) and might forget about their characters. But such a thing never happened to us. We were treated as if we were gods who descended from above and lived in this world. This is why we never did anything that would hurt people's sentiments."
