Coronation track-where Rama shines - Ananya,Anyonya Prema pg 4

Looks like cvs are more interested in showing manthara and Kekiye's reaction.
The actors could be tired shooting continuously and probably that's why thry couldn't emote properly.

From what I gather simply because this is meant to be Ramayana from Sita perspective so because of that they are rushing into vanvas thus not taking time to develop characters properly.

Y are they ruining Kaikayee and Dashrath's role badly? Kaikayee was very happy initially that her son Rama is getting coronated as a king but here she is shown as out and out villian.

Dashratha first told his family abt rama's coronation. He never ever took such a big decision in haste without informing his family

Actually SKR has not changed the way the coronation decision was taken from Valmiki Ramayan. The decision to crown Ram as the heir apparent was taken by King Dasharath as he felt he was getting old and tired. Also his intuition warned him of his impending death and he wanted to rest and be relieved of his responsibilities before that.

He puts forth his thoughts to his ministers and Rishi Vashist who unanimously agree with king Dasharath. Ram is summoned and told the decision.

He goes to his mother and Sita to inform them. News spreads and Manthara comes to know and rest is history.

Kaikeyi s characterization was changed way back in SKR. But the coronation decision and timing is as per Valmiki Ramayan. Ram was supposed to have his coronation the day after the announcement.

Thanks for the post and the update Santhi.

Agree yesterday and todays episodes were pale when compared to what we have seen before. Considering what we have read about the couples being happy for 12 years before the Rajyabhishek comes into picture, here it seems rushed.

Ofcourse the story needs to move on and that is fine. Real drama is only when Kaikeyi asks for her promises to be fulfilled. As you said it would be great to see Rama convincing the mothers, convincing Sita and Lakshman not to go with him etcc done thoroughly.

So much of detail for Ravana and his quest to rule the world.

Today's episode was much better. the listlessness on ram's face is kind of gone. And everyone is feeling the excitement.

Valmiki dedicated almost one whole sarga to the joy in Ayodhya. But here it's very measured. What is not measured is ravan's screen time. Kaikeyi's reaction was expected( from yesterday's precap).

What doesn't go well with me is her flaunting 'adhikar' on rama in this matter. Rajyabhishek is not giving inheritance rights to a vast family property but deciding ruler of a kingdom. And a very serious matter. Still can't get what has mother's rights over son have to do with it. Especially in an era where there was lot of detachment observed. Little kids were sent away to gurukuls.

I also don't understand Ram's dilemma. Why was he looking for kaikeyi's approval? Does he suspect her? Does he not have intrinsic faith in her love towards him? In the famous Rama's birthday scene from the past, he senses something in her mind. He talks about adhikaron Ka hanan(yesterday). Hey ram!!! Having an iota of doubt on his father's decision is not the rama I know. In all this, his feeling bharat's absence is the only thing. Whose adhikar is he talking about? Kaikeyi's or bharat's. Kausalya is crown queen n Rama the eldest n most deserving as determined by the esteemed court of people. Saves n ministers.if Bharat has adhikar, so do Lakshman n shatrughna. Does Rama know what dasharatha's promise to kaikeyi's father?

He knows how much she loves her. He does know all this and has no doubts. The Rama I know is straight as an arrow.

Except that CVs want to show some other version.

In valmiki ramayan, when Bharat goes to meet Rama in forest, rama mentions about the promise of dasharatha to kaikeyi's father. So he knew it. But it was never about adhikaron ka hanan.
