Today we again saw why Rama was called maryada purshottam, and why Sita was the ideal partner for him
For they both put others above them
For they both care about not just their own but enemies too - Sita wanting to treat those injured, even from the enemy sena
They both believing in fulfilling their responsibility above their feelings - Rama meeting the two matas before meeting Kaushalya, for the sake of his younger brothers
And they both radiate and calmness that envelop all those who come in their contact ...
So one kekeyi ma ke haath ka laddoo to writers for establishing that
And one bada wala same pathar that hit Manthara - to the writer who conceived this stupid scene between kekeyi and Bharat.
In their chakkar of making Ramayana modern, they are inserting issues like Bharat preferring to paint over more princely pursuits and kekeyi comparing him, not just comparing but belittling him, in front of Rama
One pathar to the person who chooses the precaps - what a khoda pahad nikla chooha - the whole promo of Sita going to war turned out to be...
But chalo, that was dealt with logically and sensibly by raja Janak
The emotions are well balanced, the scene between Kaushalya and Rama was simple and beautifully touching
Aur Haan one pathar chota sa to Kaushalya also - for not practicing what she preaches, that one must put the needs of the others above self - the sanskara she has given Rama, yet we see always putting self above others
One more laddoo to Rama - for his humility and his respect for elders, be it dasi Manthara, and for always knowing the right things to say : he told kekeyi that she still looks as beautiful as always !
I just hope the makers don't dilute and modernise Ramayana so much. As it is the costumes are too discordant with the materials and styles and techniques of that time!
