Tomorrow is my fav bit of the birth legend

Yamuna jal mein shesh naag pragatey

mukh pe sri hari ke pancho phan chaya hai karte

or as BRC said

chatra banyo brij raj hit phan phelawe naag

So I kept waiting for Devki to say

"main dhanya hui Prabhu; main dhanya hui!!"

but she never did...

do the Pandavas STILL not realize who their cousin/bestie/advisor/guide is??

SERIOUSLY???Or do they know already and are just relishing the stories of the Dark One.

I was a bit confused by the expressions I saw.

A really satisfying episode.

1) I really like Devki and Vasudev - how did SP end up with such a treasure trove of talent. Devki's shock and fainting was actually believable

2) I like the surprise on their faces and the slight wariness on seeing the peacock feather outside the window. I also liked the fact that both of them were speechless in awe. Most of these characters are in love with their own voices usually.

3) It really felt like a MAYA night

4) I loved it when Krishna said the balidaan was Vasudev and Devki's and not the babies'.

5) I also loved it when he admitted that they havent smiled since the death of the first baby. No sugar coating the truth here. Sacrifice hurts, otherwise its no sacrifice

6) Prativindhya called Krishna, Mamashree (correct me if I am wrong, isnt he actually their Chachashree as he is the Pandav's cousin?) That was a little Aww moment for me

Very few nits to nick -

7) While I liked the side play between Krishna and Panchali, NO ONE ELSE in the sabha seems to notice who he is talking to. I had the same complaint with the cave episode. Have the rest of them gone blind and deaf?

8) The make up department has not noticed or what, that Vishnu's face is blue and the arms white (sort of)?

9) For a fully pregnant woman, Devki was kneeling with ease

10) Vishnu's Vamanavtar is a sore point for us Malayalis. This is the second time I have heard SP mention it.

saw the repeat of the epi, it was truly the awesomest epi yet, loved every thing about it, srj as shri hari was good, and yes krishna janma is some thing that will make you cry tears of happyness, jagt ko aashirvaad dene wala vishnu aap se aashirvaad ki yaachana kartaa hain maa, loved it. precap, more happyness for us, shesh naag banenge unki chatri, jo humein adharma aur agyantaa ke kadi dhup main khud chaya banenge. hare krishna hare krishna krishna krishna hare.

I like Gurmeet's color and looks better in the NDTV Ramayan

SRJ in MB

Gurmeet in NDTV Ramayan

SRJ just looked too blue too me, while Gurmeet looks like a more "dirty" blue -- greyish, blueish, soft tinge of black mixed in. SRJ fans will kill me but I think he sort of looks scary ...(just my personal thoughts)

I actually like SRJ, but I agree with you. Besides I think the 'Blue' is meant to signify Dark and not Andorian

I nevar liked colouring any actor in any serial blue, cos they always overdo it...theres too much of blueness...till date i havnt seen a perfectly blue vishnu on tv...

But with yesterdays episode,the dialogs n the presence of srj ws so magical that i overlooked the blueness...
