the rest of the cast of skr,including the leads,cannot b & also shud nt b compared wd that of the classic ramayan of '86..no one cn match '86's level in ANY WAY..BUT,having said that...i wud also say that the skr cast is also vry nice in its own way..& they'r doing good too..๐Ÿ˜ƒ i watch skr regularly as well..๐Ÿ˜Š



With due respect
don't u think if some actors can be compared others can be compared too
Or if it can't be compared, then nothing should be compared
Ok u find a list of actors best,while others might find some others good
That depends on individual
U can't say anyone which can be compared which can't be compared

Like u find Mohit Raina perfect Shiva
I find Ashish perfect Ram
And here no need to even bring another show or actors
as this was only comparison btw diff versions of Ramayan,
not all mytho shows

I myself prefer watching each show as it is
Without weighing it in measuring scale
Each show has it's plus and minus
Nothing is perfect
Even if 1986 Ramayan is telecasted
Current generation won't worship Arun Govil
As now many know diff btw reel and real
That was a different generation
Not only Arul Govil many who played Gods characters were worshiped then
I know one actor down south who was worshiped for playing Krishna

Any work can be compared unless it's just a healthy criticism
Some may like comparing,so may not
No one can decide it for others

@paridhi perception varies and it is an article. I have watched 1986 version and the current one. Agree to you Ram-Siya of 1986 version were divine but the SKR one is more humane and the divinity is given through their actions.
And just like you who is a neutral viewer and a great mytho lover what I expect from both Ramayan and MB is that how we can have the learnings of those epics applied in this yuga. How can we understand the epics with respect to modern science which is so very much is there in them. Whether it is optics, newton's laws of motion, Theory of Relativity or the concept of energy , binary theory or E=MC2 everything is there in those 2 books.
1986 can be kept on a pedestal and worshipped no doubts about it. But SKR it brings the epic on the ground, to the realm of practicality, to the realm of karma, to the realm of logic and modern science. And that is the reason it is special for me. Because it helps me apply the learnings of the epic

See I didn't say u criticized, u have ur own choice ,I don't have a problem
U also need to go through my post properly๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†
That's why I didn't quote ur entire post
And as u know other actors are not allowed to be discussed in any forum
Specially when the post is not about that

U can praise 1986 as much as u want, that's ur preference
But saying that it can't or shouldn't be compared, that too only
for selective roles is what I disagreed๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†
Either don't compare at all or compare everything,simple
Though result of comparison might differ for u and me
Personally I am not comparing

And please don't twist my words,I didn't say people were dumb ๐Ÿ˜ฒ
But we are exposed to things like shootings,offscreens,graphics
Onlocation videos etc
While that much of exposure wasn't available at that time
Due to which people considered actors as real
It did happen at many places and I am not cooking stories
And u sure know the context in which I said it
I in no way disrespect old generation
As I very well know that my Parents belong to the same๐Ÿ˜ƒ

you're correct shruthi..that is exctly wat i said..1986 ramayana has created a level whch NO ONE can equate to..it wl for sure win,if comparison is brought..whereas skr is not the actual ramayan whch we learn or read..it is ramayan frm sita's perspective..so it is basically a diffrnt storytelling..

The article indeed was an interesting piece of work...๐Ÿ˜†
I enjoyed reading all the posts...๐Ÿ˜Š
Now coming to which is the best or worst I would think there has been drastic changes in the way people think/react to shows n films now...

My grandpa's PA...(fond of watching movies and articulate and blessed with a wonderful memory...) told us how people reacted to the film Nagin when it was released...

I rolled on the floor when he shared that 2 of his uncles got high fever and didnt go to office for days after watching it...
Some viewers started hallucinating after watching the movie and screamed at the look of a black ribbon too๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†
Women fainted in the hall...screaming and wailing..๐Ÿ˜†


When Santoshi Ma film was released women in their colony went barefoot to watch it...
They threw coins on the screen...many lit incense sticks and started singing arti ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†

But today even children guffaw at the sight of Nagins on Tv ...forget feeling scared...
Today the viewers are cynical as they have been exposed to a lot thanks to the technology...
I dare a film maker to make another film on Santoshi Ma๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†

So to cut it short I would say that the impact of shows done earlier was so because of varied reasons...
Today's viewer has a different perception...awareness...outlook..
So we cant keep saying only the earlier shows were great with absolute certainty...

Maybe they were good in certain areas...they appealed to people is what can be said, of course...
There were hardly any shows...less choice..in fact almost no choice๐Ÿ˜†

Devdas was made and remade...Both were different...When times change the need to show age old stories from a different angle arises...there in lies the skills of the maker...

So I will say I have loved SKR and have enjoyed it immensely...I relate to the story ...to the actors...music...screenplay...special effects...My salute to the PH for daring to make it in today's age ..๐Ÿ‘

@you you bought a nice example of Devdas. My mom had told me my grandmother fainted in the hall when Dev hits paro, my mother had cried bucket of tears. And I remember watching 2002 version of Devdas. Yes they were my friends with tissue papers but most of us were having headache. We were like " Arrey go and get a life". She went because of you, now atleast live your life and allow her to live. No problem can be solved drinking alcholhol. And my friend said " Pee peeke khud mar ghaya aur use bhi jeene nahi diya".๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†

@youliveonlyonce perfect written...serials and movies are also a reflection of the time and era in which they are made. Most important thing is appeal. if audience connects to the show or movie, it becomes a hit. Comparison of two shows of two extremely different era is not a good idea because the perception, the thought process, and the situations change with time. Although one can definitely and always compare the actors on their acting skills coz after all they all are actors.
P.S. U selected very good examples. I have also heard people goin crazy about Jai Santoshi Maa๐Ÿ˜† .
