Lol, this is my last siggie of the day guys, I promise.😳

The text is a verse from the song Luv Kush sing in Ram Darbar from NDTV Ramayan. I felt it pertained to all of these women, so I used it.
With Avi of Kaushalya Mata

Double wow! Thanks a lot for the link to the Soja Lalla song and the lyrics Loli! For the Soja Lalla one, is it the complete version from what's shown on youtube?
Have just added all the lyrics to our lyric post on the 1st page. Thank you soooo much once again Loli!🤗
Agree 100% with everything you said.👏 The makeup for Draupadi was a big put off, but the songs really made up for it. Ravindra Jain's compositions with Kavita Krishnamurthy's voice made us forget the mediocre actors they chose for the Pandavas and Kauravas.
Though Roopa Ganguly was a superb choice for Draupadi, I felt she was lacking in showing the softer sweeter side of the character. At times when it was necessary for Draupadi to be gentle, she acted too out-spoken, and in those times Falguni did well. But no one has every done the Cheer Haran scene with the grace Roopa did.👏 Image this song with BRC's Cheer Haran scene....would have been perfect!⭐️[/quote]

Hi Lali!!! Sry for the delay, lol I loooovvveee Black Friday 😆
But most welcome fore everything, my pleasure honeybunch...

Soja Lalla was longer than the normal youtube version (got it off my own youtube vid, with the lead-in and follow-up scenes included) because it includes the instrumental alaap between when she sings the first line slowly and then when he appears and it actually starts - it's an extra minute and a half of really haunting beautiful flute and sarod music, to which she's as usual heartbreaking while she looks longingly at the blanket, and somehow the baby is doing his expressions with the same accuracy 😲 I was good, huh 😉
Btw any issues with the sound quality? I'll try to clean it up and re-upload soon.

Yaay thanks for updating the lyrics directory, def helps when siggy-fying... like when you do a stunner combo update off the lullabies!

And yay that we agree on all the other stuff too! Roopa was beyond perfection in the cheer haran and aftermath dialogues; no one could match her intensity without seeming theatrical and cheesy... but her discomfort in the wooing Keechak scene after nainon ke darpan came to mind cuz I recently rewatched those agyaat-vaas epis when they're in the Matsya kingdom - can never get enough of Arjun's kathak 🤣 - and noticed how she was using her I-have-a-point women's lib voice while flirting 😕 Of course, poor Falguni had no I-have-a-point voice at all, which was essential to the character... so thank God for Ravindra Jain's magical music, which made up for her weakness... that song has enough feeling that you don't even need anything onscreen to understand Draupadi's desperation... kinda like in JSK, when I had said they used all that music in Krishna's reunion scene with his parents cuz they didn't trust the actress with intense dialogue... music saves the day!

It's okay Loli, though I missed you!🤗
The sound seems fine, don't worry. The full song version is soooooo nice!😍 Also, in the vid, don't you just love how the guards look at Devaki Ma with reverence and pity in their eyes? I really loved how RS showed the guards' humanity, and his interpretation of how only Kans was cruel to Devaki but the guards guarding the jail supported her (though they could do nothing). The way in which one of the guards looks like he's about to break down when he sees Devaki Ma rocking the blanket is just so.....😍
Agree with you about Roopa and Falguni....again. I think we've both summed them up pretty well. Roopa definitely makes a better Draupadi altogether, but she could do with a few tips from Falguni when it comes to acting soft, and vice versa with Falguni about acting strong.

Wowwwzzz all the new sigs are AMAZING Lallikins... I am scooping the Jatayu for sure, am still confused about what to include in my new siggie display since things are back to normal, but that ones making the cut for sure... thanks for another tribute to another favorite character 😭😭😭 He's my mom's fav character too, she cries every single time that scene comes.... and her fav bhajan is Anup Jalota's "Ram Katha Mein Veer Jatayu", a very popular ghazal-ish one that means "In the story of Shri Ram, brave Jatayu has his own special place" and goes on to explain how much Ramji loved and respected him. So, if I showed her it, she'd love this siggie too! Lol easy Christmas gift, thank you Lali 🤗Aww, thank you sooooooooooooooooooooooooo much Loli for such sweet words and encouragement! Tell your mom that Jatayu is one of my favorite characters too! I don't think any of us can help but cry when we see his death in Ramayan.😭 While I was eating dinner today, I was watching the part where Kaikeyi asks Dashrath her two boons, and again I couldn't help but feeling emotional when I saw poor Raja Dashrath's pain and helplessness. It's really a pity that so many people misunderstand his character.😭

And the others are also gorgeous, the SiyaRam one I love esp cuz her pre-vanaas pink and yellow outfit's one of my favs (I have bought a clone/reminder ghagra choli version of it too 😳)... and she looks so young and naive in that scene! And the Rukmini one is also lovely! Quote is awesome, would love the whole lyrics explanation when you have time, sounds like a beautiful, imagery-rich composition... and yea, Pinky really was beautiful and expressive! Will def do some pics, maybe later tonight... she had that innocent, simple, devotional look going which fits Rukmini Devi's chill personality perfectly... btw doesn't prettied-up Kubja look like it's her before she was chosen as Rukminiji (esp at 1:27)? Maybe she was RS's pick after all? Aww, thanks a lot! Will post the lyrics soon! I'm so envious! How did you get a clone of that dress? Sitaji looked soooooo sweet and innocent in it, like she was living the last day she'd be a princess.😳 Wow, you're right. The woman in the vid does look like Pinky. Maybe she's another recycled actress. Comparing Pinky and the woman who played Rukmini in BRC's MB, I'd have to choose Pinky. Pinky had that divine look of Lakshmiji that the other woman lacked. I don't know, but I was disappointed with BRC's Rukmini. I wanted someone prettier (like Pinky) to be Nitishji's Rani Rukmini.😳

Awww I missed you too my Lallikins 🤗 But yeah, it's really a beautiful song, even just musically it's got that sweet but haunting quality like only old songs used to have... and the picturization is sooo touching, esp that scene with the guards - love it too, only RS could bother with characterization of extras, and do it so well 👏 They're first shown to be sympathetic when vasudevaki are temporarily released from the dungeon after Yogmaya has scared Kans shizzless; after the two thank them and walk out (hugging of course 😍) the guards talk to each other about what great people they were and how they wish they didn't have to hurt them 😭 Then there's this scene, and then when Krishna's entered mathura and broken the Shiv Dhanush, these same guys come in and tell them about it to give them some hope - and they apologize very sweetly too (until Chanoor cuffs them and drags them away 😡)... the guards were made out to be victims themselves, who had to supress their humanity because of Kans... so yeah, it was very touching example of RS's incredibly close attention to detail, no one else could have us talking about a show's extras like this 😆

Speaking of touchy moments, I was converting dailymotion vids to get some SK avis for future siggies, and so far it's included the whole transfer of Balram epi from which I got that very devastating vasudevaki pic which you've used in some major tearjerker siggies... if you haven't seen it, here it is from Yogmaya doing the transfer, to her convo with yashoda, to the explanation by Maharishi Garg, to a really sad v-d aftermath convo, to Nand-Yashoda praying for the fruition of Devi Maa's promise that they'll have a baby... when you have time check out all 4 parts, something about those early epis makes them really captivating and keeps you glued (but no subtitles, so when you watch I can explain any mystery moments 😆)... but until then do check out the very beginning of the first vid with your volume low... very few actors and actresses can convey pain and devastation this believably 😭

And speaking of creations I'm working on, was doing a Yadu Vansh for you along the lines of your regal Raghu one, really loved it... and while I was flipping through the post Gurukul epis to find good shots of Swapnil and "Balram" in prince gear, I ended up watching some of those early Jarasandh epis that I love but avoid cuz they make me too curious about what kind of awesomeness would've come next if it stayed in RS's hands... the way he introduced the politics part of Shri Krishna's life, with Swapnil being so cool and confident in the court scenes, I really really loved it and wish there was more. Anyways, was watching the part where the Jarasandh problem is first being discussed in their court, and Shri Krishna sends Akroor to Hastinapur to ask for help. Was very happy to see that they've kept one fav scene in, and very upset to see another one taken out 😡 The good: when Akroor returns, Shri Krishna asks how his beloved devotee Vidur was doing, and goes on to tell the story of how Dharmaraj got incarnated as him. Basicallyh, a wronged rishi got upset at his misinterpretation of the law of Karma, due to which he had to suffer the consequences of a mistake he made when he was too young to know any better. He cursed Dharamraj that because of this injustice, he would have to be born as a human who would have the same supreme judgment he has now, but no one there would care about his wise words - story of poor Vidur's life! And Swapnil's way of telling it along with his analysis of Dhritrashtra - are all really awesomely done, both informative and entertaining to watch - and luckily the editors kept them in!!! And you get to see that RS's choices for Bhishma, Vidur, and Kunti were all good, they had so much potential! It's halfway into this vid, no subtitles but I'll explain if necessary - enjoy! http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x669o1_krishna-142_shortfilms
The bad news - in the court scene that follows, they're discussing what to do since Dhritrashtra has denied them military assistance and Jarasandh has sent a letter saying that if you surrender Krishna and Balram, I won't attack - and this scene was originally much longer and much more interesting than it is now. The new version just cuts to the chase; the letter is read, Krishna stands up and says if the sacrifice of one or two can save so many we'll surely do it, and Vasudev is shown crying. They cut out this heated debate between him and a not so nice minister who is ok with this "sacrifice" about how it's not fair, Vasudev ends up tearfully asking the whole court not to let this happen to him again 😭 It ends in Swapnil putting his hand on his shoulder and saying that since you've set such an amazing example of sacrifice, I, your son, would be honored to follow it
😍 It was the sweetest moment in the most unlikely venue, and Swapnil and Shahnawaz both acted with such class - it felt soooo real - and now it's gone 😭

Guys, here are some pics of our chweet Lakhan and Urmi, in the last happy scene between them before the vanvaas.😭 It's not even two minutes long, but the expressions of our LUrmi (how does that Sanghi sound for Lakhan and Urmi?) are way too cute to pass up.😳 And the entire dialogue is sooooo romantic and sweet. I totally forgot about this short but sweet scene, but yesterday when I was watching this episode, I just had to click pics from it.
The dialogue is basically when Lakshman is getting excited about serving Ramji and Sitaji once they become King and Queen, and talking about all the duties he'll now have, and Urmila reminds him that he's forgetting one more duty. Lakshman smiles at her😍 and tells her that he can never forget his Urmila. He shall ask Kaikeyi the next day to call Bharat and share the duties with him so that he can make time for his Urmi.
Argh....Vidhi.😡

Thanks a lot for the pics, Sita!👏😛
Pinky Parikh is sooooooo lovely, she just fits Rukminiji's role! And I love the Gauri Pooja song as well, it really sounds like it's coming from her heart.😊
