He also emphasised that he has met a lot of devotees in Ayodhya and they shared their pain, the sacrifices and sometimes their love for Ram Lalla. I listened to everything. The sculpture is beautiful because of the profound love for Ram Lalla.
“Most of the questions I am asked are about the eyes (of Ram Lalla). Everyone is happy and Ram feels alive. They (people) ask me how I did it. My answer is ‘maine nahi banaya’. Ram ne banvaya hai’. Most of the questions are regarding the eyes. My staff said that it feels as if he (Ram Lalla) is going to talk to us,” Arun Yogiraj said.
