This might seem harsh, but one of the things this version of Ramayan has highlighted is just how many flaws the original story has and how stupid/naive some of the characters are. I'm enjoying the show for many reasons, but I feel like I lost some brain cells watching this episode, and it's not the fault of anyone involved in making the show.

Sorry but I am unable to understand in which context you are saying ... Please elaborate

I found Marich selfish for his death..he chose Shree Ram iver Ravan

But he could have paid his debt of giving him Pran dan by not helping Ravan in his sinister plan...that would have been real mukti for him...not by fulfilling adharmic ichcha

That way even kumbhakaran and meghnaad also sided with adharm to get mukti. Vibishan just switched sides for dharma.

I think moral was even if u r right and what u see is wrong choose wisely

Do not choose adharm over brotherly or fatherly duty and love.

Even ravan knew according to some scriptures about his moksh from Vishnu

And as always my favorite scene was Shiva's scene. Every appearance of his is so perfectly done and powerfully delivered. He is by far my favorite character.

Mandodari has a royal aura about her, she is also good at emoting and her expressions.

Ravan has never impressed me. He has no aura of a rakshasraj, rather looks like a Bollywood villain. The dialogues, acting, costumes, makeup and background score don't help his case either Thank God he didn't have his Veena with him yesterday

I'll refrain from talking about Prachi

Lord Shiva was amazing as always, the way he described Ravan's behavior...

It was sad that even after knowing the deer could be a mayavi rakshas, Seeta fell prey, well perhaps because that was destined to happen.

The TRP is still stable at 0.7 I don’t under why they’re rushing the story so much it’s not like Sony has some other show to bank on, this is the highest rated show they have on the channel. Despite the pacing issues and such I still think this is the only show worth watching on itv currently, the rest of them on other channels teeter between garbage and trash. Idk if they’re rushing due to IPL coming.

Mandodari isn't that bad, maybe i'm starting to warm up to her too esp when she attempted to prohibit ravan from committing adharma vs taking revenge. I agree.

Can you please elaborate about what flaws are you talking about?

Which original story and what character is stupid?

Ok sab Kahan Gaye. Ram goes in search of deer and maarich shouts lakshman save me.

Sita gets angry on lakshman. I tell u this part was done very well what we expected from sita

Lakshman rekha is made and Brahman disguise ravan enters.

Ok again 3/4 dhoti for disguise ravan..bit longer than his usual costume.

Marich can tell your wife is in danger but why can't he tell that Ravan is taking your wife, go save her
