Embodiment of beauty & grace

Your beauty makes me want to put sunglasses on in the dark
Your beauty is brighter then the sun n lights up every room
Your beauty is breath taken.
Your beauty makes me weak in the knees
Your beauty would make shut up anybody in the room
Your beauty gives me butterflies
Your beauty makes me smile when I think of you.
Your beauty makes me want to be your man in show you to the world

I will open it towards the end of April, once my exams are over. 😊 Right now I am busy with so many things, so I haven't found time. 😳 Even I love the old Ramayan a lot. Dara Singh and Sunil Lahri were my favorite actors from it. Sunil Lahri was especially the cutest Lakshman!

Yeah, not many people are interested in mythological epics nowadays. In fact, many people misunderstand the character of Shri Ram, especially with the current rise of feminism and all. Shri Ram is accused of failing as a husband and such words really hurt my heart. I wish there was some way we could educate the world about the real character of Ramji. There was no one who respected his wife more than him!

Yeah, Arun-Deepika and Gurmeet-Debina really brought the characters to life! It is especially appreciative of Gurmeet & Debina, because they are actors of the modern era. Not many actors today know the Hindu epics very well. Even in current mythological shows, very few actors know about the characters they are playing. They blindly follow the scripts as if playing Godly characters is the same as playing fictional characters. Because of that, we often cannot connect with these modern actors in the roles of God, because they are not at all in sync with the roles. There is no divinity in their face and they become very boring to watch. As a result, the mythological show becomes a flop and the producers blame the audience for not watching it, though the problem is with the actors and the script.

But NDTV's Ramayan was not like that. Gurmeet and Debina educated themselves about their characters and really stepped into the shoes of Ram and Sita! 👏 Not just Gurmeet and Debina, even other actors in Ramayan really connected with their characters, like Vikram Sharma who played Lord Hanuman so beautifully, or Vinod Kapoor who was an excellent Vibhishan (he was also Dushashan in BR Chopra's Mahabharat. Ankit Arora was a very decent Lakshman, and Vijay Bhatia was a good Bharat too. If one does not compare these actors to the actors of older Ramayan, we can really appreciate them for their hard work and dedication.

I really love the cast of NDTV's Ramayan. I have not seen any other modern mythological serial that has been made with such dedication and devotion as this Ramayan.
