Also, will they show Bharat getting ready to jump into the fire before Ram comes? I hope so. Dosen't Ram send Hanuman ahead to stop Bharat and tell him that he (Ram) is on his way? I am waiting for

Yes, these stories are quite popular, though I doubt if this is so in Valmiki's Ramayan.

Your wit has made me speechless again, Chandra ji. Actually, I agree with you. It is sort of funny to notice that when people wanted to see more of Ravan and when it is shown they want him finished off soon. But we can't blame them. Showing all these stories at this point - the final stage of the war is a bit dragging. No offence meant.

I expected these stories to be shown in the Uttar Kand - when the sages tell Ram about Ravan, his birth, his deeds and about Indrajeet. I was surprised they showed it now.

well shani dev is not considered as ashubh ,rather everyone is scared of shani dev as it is said that if shani dev enters in anyones life as dhaiya(2 & half yrs) & saade saati(7 yrs) in the horoscope ,then for some it is really lucky & for some it is unlucky ,

it is said that if shani dev enters the house of surya dev in the horoscope then tht really harms tht person ,mostly it is considered that the glance of shani dev is not fruitful, the vakra drishti of shani dev (the vakra glance /the in auspicious glance) of shanidev harms a person ,

all the jyotishi (taro readers & the planet readers ) say tht shani dev not always harms a person ,shani dev mostly harm those who do bad deeds in their lives ot they had done some bad deeds in their purva janam (previous life) ,

for some shani dev is lucky also (tht depends upon the stars of tht person n all & if shani dev is happy wid tht person)

but shanidev cannot harm a true HANUMAN devotee that is why all the priests say tht if one wants to get rid off the shani dev affect in ones life then tht person shud seek the blessings of hanumanji or try to make efforts to make shani dev by giving daan & offering oil to shani dev(the mustard oil) every saturday !!!

Yeah, in Valmiki, the entire history of Ravan, Vali and Hanuman is narrated in the first half of the Uttarkand in the form of Rama hearing the story from rishis who visited Ayodhya on his rajabhishek.

What they've done in this serial is creative in a good way. If the Uttarkand that they will be showing was just Ravan and his stories, people would get impatient for Kush/Luv. Instead, they seem to have scattered the stories throughout the narration - like they showed Vali vs Ravan when Rama had met Sugriv, and Angad brought Tara the news of Hanuman befriending Rama & Lakshman. They showed Ravan's history with Kubera and Kaikesi's craving for Lanka during the Sunderkand period. They showed the killing of Shurpanakha's hubby in that episode where she starts envying Sita and wants to mutilate her. They showed Bal Hanuman when the vanaras reached the ocean - actually, the story itself appears in Uttarkand. Now, they've shown Ravan's battle with Aranya. I think they've covered most ground - only Madhu abducting Kumbhineshi remains to be shown, and that ties up well with Lavanasur.

And thanks for your compliments - I agree with you that there's no pleasing us 😆😆😆 - first we have people who tell them not to bump Ravan off, and when they start showing extra stuff, we complain that it's dragging on. Poor Sagars 😃

Sita, I have also heard people say that when someone is having bad luck in general, they think it's because of Shani Dev. When I was very little in India, I have seen people take oil to the temple for Shani and I never knew why they did that!
