Ravan!

The actor playing Ravan has great screen presence and delivers quite a punch...! However, Ravan is being painted with very broad strokes, very unidimensional, and is a bit filmy even. Would be good if they played it more subtle and less obvious. Subtle can be just as powerful.

Aww, Bert!

Kartik needs time to be settle into Raavans character as he is all new in this hindi industry he is basically from south industry and also he is learning his hindi lesson too..for making the character real..

Welcome to the forum.🤗

Loved the actor from the interviews. Yesterday, he failed to live up to my expectations in the Mithila scene.He was pretty good otherwise in the Lanka scenes. Suddenly, he looked too filmy...and out of place amongst Malyavan and Janak. I really liked Malyavan, BTW.

I guess the actor will take some time to settle into character...or it must be a necessity to appear filmy, given Ravan's boisterous traits.😆

Thanks Chick 🤗

Yes, the contrast with Janak in particular was what made it jarring...he was still fine in the previous epi...the actor playing Janak is so good...and yes, the one playing Malyavan too...!

but i like his south indian touchy hindi bec it just highlights Lankaa to be belonging to south wards...

Bassically he is filmy...coz makers want it to be filmy as it is not TYPICAL ramayana...its A love story of Ram and sita...with----obviously antogonist Raavana and also we will be witnessing huge...Family drama too..

so as this is not typical mythological show keeping in mind indian telly frame and BARC Trp system they had to put some filmy element too so yayyy

Raavana is going great and in future we woujkd able to see more on it..my POV...

My problem is not with the accent..!

I simply feel that there has be to a certain uniformity to the quality of performances...otherwise it will stick out like a sore thumb like it did yesterday..!

And it has nothing to with the show being mythological or otherwise..!

Respect your pov of course..!

yup amy be with time the cvs is going to show other aspect of Raavan too in stuble manner...hope for the best...

Hello everyone!! I have been watching Siya Ke Raam since the beginning and really like the new perspective being given to this age-old epic as well as some less known stories being thrown into light here...

As for Raavan, I think Jayaram Karthik is a great actor. I loved him as JK in the kannada serial Ashwini Nakshatra too.He definitely has strong screen presence, a must for a strong character like Raavan. An excellent casting choice, according to me :)

Hello!

I completely agree with u

I liked his intro one very much

But in that Mithila scene I was disappointed

And also they need to explore all shades of Ravan

Not just the dark side

As SKR is all about dimensions

But as far as Ravan is concerned they have shown

only his dark side till now

But then, like u and many others pointed

He has problem with language

And also has just entered the show

He needs time to settle down

And even makers need time to explore more of Ravan

So let's wait and watch😉
