So far, Krishna (Vishal) and Revathy (Gauri) have been outstanding, Jarasandha (Puneet) and Balarama (Hemant Chabra) have been good, but the others have been more or less ordinary. Vishal has done a bang up job as Krishna, and given that none of the Krishna serials I've seen to date have been authentic, if I judge them on acting alone, I'd say Vishal is the most Krishnaesque of the Krishnas. Maybe Swapnil was better, but not Nitish, and certainly not Sarvadaman Bannerjee.
But when Vishal is delivering distorted messages, it's really hard to appreciate him, try as one might!!!

Thank u so much Debipriya and Par Di, and I actualy agree with all of you, they all are just doing this for Janamashtami episode, but if they want to show something like that, they must have planned it in a better way or they can show it with Rukmini only, dont liking the way they are actually showing everything.

i actually think puneet is the best of the lot,i mean the cvs made it so that we r supposed to hate him, (another distortinga s discussed previously), and i do hate him, vishal and revathi r good, actually revathi is very Good. but i am not much happy with vishal, well i wasnt much happy with guru as ram in the early days too, but its not entirely their fault, they are potraying someone of whom all of us have our own defined wonderful image, its difficult. u r right sarvadaman suked big time, but NItish uncle as matured politicial lord K was unmatched.Vishal is quite good, but he is one dimensional. At times i dont feel the presence and he doesnt sound convincing enough at times. since the show rests majorly on his shoulder, he has to work harder than everyone else.thats why i think they need to improve their diction and expressions,specially vishal. This is what i feel about their acting.

as for messages, the fault lles with the script writer and cv and the research team( if at all any as they claim) I wish the actors were a little more familiar with their characters, done some research on their own and put their input. I know it sounds stupid work for a daily soap, but its no ordinary daily sopa. thats why i feel they are just puppets in a sagar drama. It would have worked well had it been Dharam veer( no body cared if it was prince of egypt in indian version or whatever), or even PRC ( starting out as history it became fiction ), but since this deals with religious sentiments of a lot of people and seeing a lot of young people will learn about their culture from such shows, i think everyone should be a little more sincere in their efforts and research.

I haven't been seeing the past few episodes because of the distortion they did with Devaki, but I think I'll see this one because I want to see the actresses who played Satyabhama and Jambavathi.

Some deviations here and there are natural in a serial, but to show Rukmini slightly jealous of Jambavathi in the beginning decreased her Godliness more than ever before.😔 Like Vrish said, I can understand why she might feel hurt by the way the maid introduced Jambavathi, but Rukmini Ma was not an ordinary woman so it is improper showing her like this...she was never ever jealous of any of Krishna's wives because she never once saw them as hindrances to Krishna's love for her. She loved him without expecting anything in return, and hers was a path of devotion that was equivalent to Lakshmi's for Vishnu. The relationship between Rukmini and Krishna should be shown similar to Ram and Sita, because Sita too was never the jealous sort...I mean, Ram got many marriage proposals throughout his life but she never once let that get to her.
The fact that Krishna returned to Dwaraka with only Jambavathi is an error no doubt, but it's a small error and not very major...it's just meant to drag the time before showing his marriage to Satyabhama. However, was Satyabhama ever about to have a Swayamvar?😳 I thought in the original story, Krishna just prooved his innocence and a guilty Satrajit gave the gem along with Satyabhama to Krishna.
Btw, does Satrajit actually die? I never heard of this in the original story either, let alone in a serial.😲 I thought he just married off Satyabhama to Krishna and left the story forever! What happened?

Thanks fr the update.
But I am utterly disappoinyted with the esisode, Sorry for saying this, but cant we be rid of Langda tygai and his mom or Thomas and his mom as Vrish refers to them. And Ramaiya or whoever is so bad in emoting. And Satrjit, what was he trying to protray. Why cant they atleast get good actors to play the role. These are powerful roles even though they are small but very integral to the story.
And Rukmini's reaction was disappointing. She was unflinching in her devotion to Krishna and never has she questioned him or his moves. This was what made her stand apart and this is the test which is used by Narada to show Sathybhama that its actually Rukmini who is Krishna's soul mate in the thulabharam test. Sathyabhana in fact was possessive of Krishna and did not like his other wives. But she was always respectful towards Rukmini and bowed down to her as an elder sis.
I dont think I guessed the actess who plays Satybhama right in another thread posted by Vrish. This one looks pathetic. Sathybahma was beautiful but at the samew time arrogant. Wonder if she will be able to shoulder the burden of this role. Sathyabhama was beautiful no doubt, but her glow and youthfulness was because she was blessed by Aditi after Krishna killed Narakasura and Sathyabhama aided Krishna so well in that war.
Some one please correct me if I am wrong, but Satyabhama had three suitors, Kritavarma, akura and one another. When Satrajit offers Sathybhama to Krishna they are upset. But the third one actually kills Satrajit and steals the gem. When he realises his folly, he actually gives the gem to Akura and flees. Krishna kills that third guy, but requests Akura to tell the entire city that the gem is with him else Krishna would be accused of killing hif FIL for tghe gem. The gem was never with Krishna ever. He only accepted the gold it produced for the sake of people thats about it.
And whats with those 3 jokers who came yesterday as her suitors? Pathetic.
I cannot comment on the time lines of this marraige but this just seemed as if it was one followed by the other without a break.
I only like Vishal as Krishna, Hemant as Balarama (even though his character is massacred he is doing his bit) and the best is the one playing Revathy. She is fab.
And I so agree with you Vrish, after seeing this Rukmini, I am glad Krishna got himself Jambavathi and Sathyabhama.

The third guy was Satadhandva - I mentioned him in the link provided in first post on this page. LJR, you can see the story there of what happened.
I agree w/ LJR about Satyabhama's swayamvar - I forgot to mention it in the earlier post, but not only did she not have one, but the way it was shown even if she did was hilarious. Only 3 suitors, and that too clowns after the gem? Also, in Swayamvaras, all the marriage rituals - haldi, milk-bath and so on - were only done after the marriage had been fixed. Are the Sagars getting their information on Swayamvaras from Ratan and Rahul's? B'cos the way Swayamvaras actually happened - see Sita's Swayamvara as an example - was that after the husband was chosen by the princess, the families of both would get together, get their pundits together, fix a date for the wedding (it was rarely that same day) and then would come the haldi, the milk-baths and other paramparas that needed to be fulfilled.
First of all, it's debatable whether Satrajit was a king, since only rulers typically did Swayamvaras. But even assuming he was, and that he held one for Satyabhama, which he didn't - he had supposedly agreed to pick one b/w Akrura, Kritavarma and Satadhandva - it's totally ridiculous to suggest that the family would have done Satyabhama's marriage rituals like haldi and so on, and after turning away the suitors, he'd ask Krishna to marry her or else Satyabhama would be stuck for life unmarried. Any father who did that would have had to be a freaking moron! You fix a husband, and after the marriage is agreed to, then do those things. Don't do it b4 hand, and then tell someone that if he doesn't marry her, she is doomed.
I am disappointed that so many people are turned off by what's being shown, but don't blame them. I so wish more people could watch the serial and enjoy it, but Sagar Pictures seems determined to put on a second rate show. And if they do, even Shri Krishna himself wouldn't be able to resurrect it!

^^ The most hilarious thing I found about this is the three suitors thing...even if Satyabhama had a Swayamvar, 100s would be invited, not just three.😆 Even during choice Swayamvars like the one Amba, Ambika, and Ambalika had, many Kings from all over the land came, so had the Sagars wished to show a Swayamvar just for the heck of it, the least they could do is make it more realistic. It wouldn't have been true, but at least it'd be believable and interesting.

Yes, quite right! From the Janmashtami rush up, I feel that there were last minute changes and team was not given enough time. Especially in scenes where there is a longer dialogue (this happens quite a lot), the actor has to keep his tone and intonation right. This has still not happened. Also, along with grace and humility, there should be also be firmness. Unitl now the actor is not able to show the nuance of firmness in his body language.


as for messages, the fault lles with the script writer and cv and the research team( if at all any as they claim)


The scenes are just a pack of events due to the CV's but the actors need to take to another level. This has not been happening.

It may be because some of the actors have'nt got enough screen time to show their talent, Jambvanti in her dark form, was able to make her pressence felt, overall their casting is not good, that's one of the pt we feel disappointed, besides the script. So overall there are very few pts to praise & more to feel unhappy about, till now in the show, hope they improve.
