Some things are spoiling the Ramayana serial 😭.Some of them are:1.The pushpa vatika had flowers that were not available in India at that time.It was clearly visible that the scene was shot in a modern garden.
2.Notice the basket in Ramji's hand, earlier people used to pluck flowers in hand woven baskets,but this basket is looking too modern.Sometimes people used to pluck flowers and keep them in their hands only.
3.Notice the chair in the Panchavati Kutiya(hut),when Ram does not find Sita anywhere he looks in the Kutiya and there inside you see a modern chair that is very popular these days.
4.Once Rishi Agastya is shown sitting on that chair.
5.The Bali entry,just look at his footwear,Isn't it strange?the foorwear looks like made of leather.😕
6.When Sugriva and Rama take the oath and again they are sitting on that wooden chair(that is used these days).
7.The plastic creepers,they dont look real at all,and the way they are put it does not look natural.They could have grown original creepers and waited for the growth.
8.No ashoka tree in the Ashoka vatika only flowers and one banyan tree.
9.When bharat returns after meeting Rama in the forest and brings his Charan Padukanye,he is walking on a road!!!!!!
I hope more will be coming in the future.please think about it and comment.if I missed out something please tell me.

yah u r right.

but the reason 4 these mistakes is the lack of dedication of show makers. they are too busy because of a lot of projects. i don't know why they are competing with ekta when they have most superb show ramayan in there hand. many people has pointed to too many mistakes they made but these sagars are yet trying to win N.F.S 😆
if they had concentrated only on ramayan or PRC they could have done better. haw can one maintains quality if they are engaged in too many shows. when earlier ramayan (sagar arts) and mahabharat(brc) was made they had only one project in there hand and they devoted there full time and energy on these show. thats the reason for the superb quality of these show because of which it created history.
anand sagar says that this ramayan is made in keeping 2days generation in consideration. but anand ji our generation is not so fool that they will appreciate whatever u do. u should only make the language simple, add special effect to explain story in better way but please don't use todays chair, basket or anything (i m afraid if in future indra would send tank instead of chariot 😆 )
some one should say him that our generation like quality , originality and authenticity instead of futile showoff 😡

More will come in future, and if the Sagar arts team cares to come here and check out the mistakes then very good for them.

People from Royal families used baskets made up of Gold, silver or copper. India was "Sone ki chiriya" then. Hand woven baskets were used by brahmis.

Flowers for puja shud not be kept in hands. If ur plucking it with right hand u shud not keep it in left hand. One shud always use a patra(utensil ) or a leaf for plucking flowers for puja purpose

wooden chairs were use in those days. Singhasan used in Royal courts were chair shaped. Even people from Harrapa culture used chair shaped furnitures

People from Royal family wore leather made footwear. Its a very ancient art. there were Royal cobblers in those days. Even the string ot the Dhanush were also made up of leather.
footwear of sages n hermits were made up of wood n grass

According to Valmiki Ramayan Bharat ordered for the construction of Highway before going to Chitrakut. He wanted good roads so that the queen mothers did not face any difficulty

No the chairs used in the vanvaas are just looking modern(they are not the usual asanas).The flowers all of them, .......the road is made of concrete.the basket shown is wrong.Actually could not remember the name thanks for telling the name of the basket.But I am still doubtful about the leather footwear..Thanks for the rest of the information but some things are still wrong.

Name of the flower which Ram was plucking is Kalawati flower.Its plant look like turmeric plant

Use of leather is very ancient. String or cord of Dhanush were made up of leather. Ancient people wore leather as cloths. Use of leather is not a modern phenomenon

i know sagar 's not showing so much of greenary at ashok vatika , abt the creepers u said ,i agree they cud hv used the original creepers but the plastic creepers r also fine ones 😛 .

i guess ekta inspite of handling too many shows paying so much of attention on detailing of MAHABHRAT ,recently i saw on sbs tht she took audition of 150 kids born on janamashtami ,she got matched their horoscope wid the horoscope of LORD KRISHNA & after hard task she got her babay KRISHNA for MAHABHARAT she has hired a group of pandits from all coreners of india (the big pandits) who r gonna help her in making MAHABHRAT & in buying the ornaments n sudarshan chakra of LORD KRISHNA ,

so even if sagars r doing soooooooo many shows at a time they shud give equal importance to all their shows & work on more detailing IN RAMAYAN as it's A ONCE IN A LIFE TIME PROJECT . RAMAYAN won't b made every now n then by every one .
by the way i am happy wid the show & RAMAYAN is my fav show ,love watching it
