In this serial, so far at least, they seem to be showing Lavanasura as a bachelor, which seems to be accurate, since no mention is made in Valmiki of any son of his.

Incidentally, I didn't like the previous Lavanasura either - they made a complete caricature out of him. Fact was that he was formidable. Also, contrary to what they show in the serial, he wasn't intent on world conquest - he was pretty happy just micro-managing Madhupura so that he was the only power out there. Had he wanted to conquer the 3 worlds, he could have done that long ago with the power of his trishul, since he managed to kill Mandhata, which even Ravan couldn't.

One thing I hate about the Sagars is their embellishing Rama (his attitude towards Manthara, for example) and conversely, villifying the rakshashas, who were bad enough in their own right w/o any further defaming (like showing Lavanasura interested in world conquest).

The other thing - given that Lavanasura had achieved things that even Ravan couldn't - like killing Mandhata, wouldn't he have easily conquered the 3 worlds if he wanted to? Even Ravan couldn't have stopped him, since he had the trishul, which was like his MasterCard - he never left home w/o it.

P.S. Congratulations on 700!!! Both you & Khalrika hit goldie very soon

In last night's episode, they showed Rama narrate to Shatrughan the incident between Vishnu vs Madhu/Kaitabh, where Vishnu created an astra for the explicit purpose of killing them, and Rama gives Shatrughan that astra to kill Lavanasura.

Now, they showed this in the previous Ramayan serial as well, but there, there was a discrepancy between what they showed in the Lanka-kand, before the killing of Atikaya, vs what they showed in the Lav-Kush-kand, before the killing of Lavanasura. In the former, they showed Madhu/Kaitabh humiliate Shiva and Vishnu - in fact, when Vishnu sent his sudarshan chakra to kill them, it returned w/o doing anything. In their vanity, they offered Vishnu a boon, and Vishnu asked them to reveal how they could be killed. They responded by saying that the t&c of their death was that they could only be crushed within Vishnu's thighs. Hearing this, Vishnu took a gigantic form and crushed the 2 of them within his thighs. The only problem w/ that Sagar account was that he mentioned Kumbhakarna and Atikaya as Madhu/Kaitabh, when in fact, Kumbhakarna, w/ Ravan, was Vijaya and Jaya. In the Uttarkand part of it, they showed what they showed last night.

Does anyone - Chen2, Lalitha, Ananya, Khalrika, et al - know which of these versions is correct? If it's the former (minus the detail about Kumbhakaran), then how does that square w/ what Rama tells Shatrughan - which incidentally is there in Valmiki? If it's the latter, as shown last night, why couldn't Vishnu simply use his sudarshan chakra or his mace to kill them: why did he have to create another weapon? Incidentally, they showed Vishnu using a bow for the first time. Wouldn't he have to remove the gadha and padma from his 2 front hands in order to use the bow and arrow, and if yes, where did he take them?

Another question - we know Ravan & Kumbhakarna were Jaya & Vijaya. Who was Indrajit - meaning, what was his origin in a previous birth? If Atikaya was one of Madhu/Kaitabh, could Indrajit have been the other?

P.S. Congratulations Mallika & Chatter for this club completing 600 posts.
