Wrt the precap shown today, Lavanasur has a blueprint of Ayodhya and is making plans to attack it from three sides. And then hes shown torturing sages...

Good that your kid found it funny and she was very right.....and clever .jus like u😉

Actually beeswax was used to make Sindoor a paste like so that it stays on forehead and/or in-between the partitioned hair where Sindoor is applied; maybe they'd made Hanuman use that.

😆

🤢Poor Vikram Sharma. Playing Hanuman is not that easy, is it???

Just saw the day's episode.. LOL on Lavanasur......My lil daughter saw him and said "Boys laam rubberband poda koodaathu illa?" (Boys shouldn't wear rubberband, right?) She thought those beads to be rubberbands, and I was laughing on the whole. He was such a comedy.

And Karkati probably missed her classes when the lesson on decency was taught. She threw the arti thali as if it was her own home. (But still, I've not seen any lady throwing the arti thali). That was a bit too much. Given the fact that Lavanasur DID NOT KNOW that RKI were no more, it is but natural for him to welcome his BHABHI. (Oh well if RKV are his Mousere Bhai, Karkati is ofcourse his Bhabhi.....)

BAJRANGBALI KI JAI. Very nice and innocent, but still as Chandra said Ghee? 😲, could have used water😊. And where does he go to search for the sindoor? Any idea what room its called?
And did all queens (primary queens in case of others) go to the Rajyasabha as Sita does?

actually the color of vermillion becomes more brighter when it is mixed with the ghee
u know the processof applying vermillion color on hanumanji's idol is known as bandanwar(in north india ) & whenever on tuesday bandanwar is applied on hanumanji's idol in any temple it is always mixed with ghee as it makes the vermillion color more bright due to the chemical reaction of ghee with vermillion !!!
even when my parents apply bandnwar in hanuman temple they mix it with ghee as it really gets stuck well to the idol of hanumanji& it looks really bright
if vermillion is applied with water ,it won't appear as bright !! so thats the reason sagars showed hanumanji applying the vermillion by mixing it with ghee
& the room in which hanumanji went to take vermillion was the room where all the hawan samghri (hawan & yagya things were kept) as there was vermillion ,ghee ,& other stuffrelated to yagya was kept !!!

Lavanasur hulrs abuses at Shatrughna and Ram,indirectly:

My mother's brother ,a rakshasa, Ravana by name was brutally killed by that malignant Rama and that too for the sake of his woman/wife.


This clarifies that Ravan was Lavasur's maternal uncle.

Thanks. What does it say about Lavanasura's references to why he didn't get involved in that conflict?

Maternal uncle part is there earlier, when the abduction of Kumbheenashi is described to Rama.

Thank you Sita on explaining the sindoor and ghee part.......that makes it quite reasonable what was shown.

@ Chandra bhaiya: Lavanasur doesn't mention why he didn't help Ravan but he warns Shatrughna that he would avenge for wiping out Ravan's family. Lavanasur doesn't mention anything about Karkati too , wonder If they both met each other or even know about each other's existence.

Sita

Thanks for the description. And you are right - such a combo would be brighter than sindur mixed with water.

However, the crimson color shown here was darker, not brighter, which is what looked strange.

This is vermillion, the normal color of dry sindur.

This is crimson, which Hanuman looked like in court.

The mixture Hanuman put on would have looked like this

You are correct Sita. My dad grew up in Delhi and he used to say that bandhnwar is ghee mixed with vermillion.
You know, I am very thankful that we get to see our Indian Ithihaas and purans on television. For the most part, this is a wonderfully produced and acted show, a visual treat. So, I am not going to nitpick about some errors in production. Thanks Sagars! 👏

A good episode yesterday . . .

Bharat bidding farewell to the guests and Vibhishan's expressions and explanation was good.

Hanuman's expression when he was helping Ram dress up and when he was searching for the perfect match for the Sindoor he had in his hand were portrayed well. Sita's expressions were cute.

Lavanasur was planing battle strategies . . . I guess we have to wait for the next episode to know more of his plans. In the precap it was shown that he had started harrassing sages.

Really Deepa! That was so hilarious . . . One of my friends asked if Lavanasur was wearing a 'Nethi chutti' the ornament women wear on their forehead at the parting of their hair.

I agree Karkati was behaving in a 🤔🤔🤔 But that is the character she portrays and the person acting the part has done it well. But I too feel she was going too far and that too right from the beginning.

I have no idea what the room was called but in palaces they did have a room with all the powders, salts and other stuff for applying on the body. I am not sure if they had separate chambers for all the sacred powders like Sindoor. I was wondering about the shape of the urns . . .

It was the custom those days for the queen to attend the court. They could retire anytime they feel tired or sick.
