An ethereal entry of a divine woman......

I loved today's episode...Ma Sita's birth n her entry gave me goosebumps. Although I like to see these characters as human...her divine aura was indeed palpable in that scene.

I liked a few things about Siya Ke Ram that I would like to point out:

First n foremost is the simplicity. The sets are grand n yet so simple. The costumes of the actors are royal yet correctly normal...The actors are seasoned n the background music is soothing. I remember watching Star Plus' Mahabharat which had amazing background scores which were sometimes too loud.
I loved the songs n tunes played in the background for Ma Sita...It was so soothing...
The over the top mantra jaap that we get to hear in other serials make it very unrealistic...For a change I saw a mythological show in recent times where the music is so subtle...Just loved it!!

Ma Sita's entry was divine...The girl looked ethereal as Sita and Ma Durga...The entry was so subtle with no loud music or tune...Just a soulful tune depicting Ma Sita's simplicity...

Another thing that took my breath away was King Janak's ideologies...What a man!!
He was proud of having daughters n his kingdom would be known after his daughter!! Indeed...
That scene gave me goosebumps...


Overall I am liking the show bcoz of its ethereal simplicity...Be it the clothes or the sets or the music...everything is so simple in a grand way...I am loving it.

I hope the CVs keep this simplicity intact...

I am a mythology fan n have been studying Mahabharat for quite some time...
However my knowledge on Ramayan is limited to a kiddish Bengali version by Upendrakishore Raychoudhury which I had studied in Class IV long time back...
I do have some knowledge on the basic story but I have learnt one thing from Mahabharat that the best way to learn the epic is by going through the actual text thoroughly instead of going through modern interpretations n blogs...bcoz most of these give out false stories...Looking forward to having discussions here.
I would really love to learn about Ramayan from the actual text...

Love

Thanks dear...Looking forward to some amazing discussions in this forum... 😊

hey Amrita...agree with your every point..yes loved the creativity..they made the sets grand but didn't show it like the way others show..they keep in mind the time period and made it the way it should..not too bright...a little bit dark...simple...huge space..great art but still looks simple...songs are not to loud but still heart warming...like Maa Sita's BG tune...

loved the scene where they explained Maa Sita's divinity just by showing how she lift Shiv Dhanush...

loved the scene where Janak gave names to his daughter and said how he want be known as the father of his daughter...

I hope they keep this till the end...😳

Hi Debo...Great to see u here again...Last we met at Draupadi's AT if I am not wrong...
Yes...the show is so correctly subtle...The clothes n sets n music are so royal n yet sober...
I too liked Ma Sita's background score...

And Janak n his family are just awesome...
I hope they keep up this trend n try to stick to the epic...using creative liberty only to enhance the story...n not to whitewash or blackwash any character...
