Half knowledge is dangerous-Sita - Page 2

yes Shruthi, even I think like that only. Though kaikeyi might talk to Dashrath about his Vachan and it was shown as if she is going to rip him apart fro not keeping up his word, I don't think any such things may happen right now. King Dashrath might tell her the complete story about the Vachan like since he doesn't have a son from Kausalya and if your daughter gives birth to the royal heir (first son of Raghukul), even if he is not the first wife's son (crowned wife), he will become my successor. Since you have not given birth to the first son and Ram being my first son, he will succeed me eventually and she may accept it and keep quiet for the time being. And about Manthara not leaving from Ayodhya may be a result that kaikeyi's brother may stay back at Ayodhya for some time (it was very common in thos edays for a brother to stay at his sister's sasural for years together without hesitation).

Would not that be too much of a deviation from the base story line ?

@adi vanvas is for Ram. And Sita will go for Vanvas on her free will only. But what we are talking is about things that can prompt Kaikeyi to ask the boon.

Oh, ok...Shruthi..😊

@adi they are showing how with each success with her questioning the girl is getting confident, each time she is adored she feels, she is right. She will grow up into a confident young woman so sure of her choices. Many girls who are blessed with beauty and brain ends up like that. First time her choice is gonna go wrong will be when she sends Lakshman to rescue Ram. It is that point from where Sita's sadness starts.

Shruthi,

The most painful part of Sita's characterisation for which she paid a very heavy price is the charges she made against Lakshman when he hesitated to leave her all alone to go in search of Ram. A brother,who from his childhood always followed his idol like a shadow ,to be treated to such an accusation was very difficult to understand. She regretted this later on. It was also possible that unless she uttered those words which scalded him he wouldnt have left her alone and Ravan wouldnt have got destroyed.

Fantastic analysis Shruti didi😃
