OK...I really have no idea about Sahasra Raavan story. Someone please enlighten me about this one. From which version of Ramayana did this originate?

It's from Adhbhut Ramayana. It was written during the Classical Age - post Vedic, probably during the Gupta empire

The way I understand it - Considering Ravan is Trilokadhipati, if anything, Sahasra Ravan should've happened just before Ravan vadh (something like an epic battle in Ashok Vatika).

But, after Ravan's death, I really don't see the point of Sahasra Ravan turning up...like why?

And, if Sita can take Bhadra Kali form for this purpose, surely Ram can also appear as Maha Vishnu and do the needful.

Or, is it that Sahasra Ravan had to be slayed only by an aspect of Shakti?

Like I said, I do have an open mind about this - but I really don't understand why AFTER Ravan's death considering Ravan's power and who he was...

Actually What I beleive is if they wanted to show something like this , I mean Sita taking a Divine Form to Kill Sahasra Ravan , it should have been Sita Taking form of MahaLakshmi and not Bhadrakaali

Bhadrakaali is Parvati , not Sita . And Yes , Rama could have easily gone into Mahavishnu's Form in this case .

The way the CVs have handled the Sahastra Ravan storyline, I'm not sure what we're supposed to deduce from it. But as far as I know about the Sahastra Ravan story, the absence of Sahastra Ravan should be merely attributed to the fact that Ravan was scared of him too, and about Ram not killing him is only because Sita chose to take her Bhadrakali avatar before it could even attack Ram and kill him. This showed everyone, that she was Goddess.

This is the extract from Sita Devi by Devdutt Pattanaik.

Just as Sita took her place beside Ram, a roar was heard from the horizon and a creature with a thousand heads rose from beyond the hills. That is Ravana's twin, who lives in the Pushkara Island,' said Vibhishana, quivering with fear. Even Ravana feared him.' Before Ram could reach for his bow, everyone saw an incredible sight. Sita suddenly transformed. Her eyes widened, her skin turned red, her hair came unbound, and she sprouted many arms with which she grabbed the sticks and stones of the vanaras and the swords and spears of the rakshasas. Thus armed, she leapt on to a lion that appeared out of nowhere and rushed to do battle with the demon. It was a fierce battle, the Goddess with her many arms pounding the demon who dared interrupt her union with her husband. She ripped out his en-trails, chopped away his limbs, crushed his heads, broke his knees and drank his blood. Thus satiated, she returned to sit beside Ram as the demure Sita, a gentle smile on her lips.

No words were spoken. Everyone was stunned by the realization that Sita was Gauri who was also Kali. She had allowed herself to be abducted. She had allowed herself to be rescued. She was the independent Goddess who had made Ram the dependable God.

Star Sita is coming as Bhadra Kali to destroy Sahasra Ravan. Shri Rama only kills Ravan in this 😆😆

After all, who'd have ever imagined they'd show dinosaurs in the ashok vatika?

If that's possible, anything is.

I'll have a coronary if that really happens. Are you guys sure this is somehow still Rmayan? And how on earth is Lakshmi taking the form of Parvati's Kaali?? Koi mujhe samjhayea please? *conphused*

Now I think Uttar Kand will be more like Star Sita walking out herself rather than being exiled...

If Agnipariksha does happen, it'll be more out of her own choice than anything else. Deffo cannot see it happening soon after Ravan's death...as such, Bhadra Kali is waiting! 😈

So, I wonder if CVs might show it during Uttar Kand - my theory...

Ayodhya waasis raising questions over Sita sometime post-coronation (after whatever happened earlier with the laundry man's daughter). Ram might be convinced of her innocence but she wishes to undergo Agnipariksha for her own sake (recalling Janak's words)...

Request turned down (in other words, no Agnipariksha!).

So, she protests by walking out...but not before giving bhaashans to the Ayodhya raj parivar!! 😆

My speculation, of course - but considering the wild imaginations of the CVs, it might totally end up becoming OTT drama for TRPs!

Yes, there is also the case of Ram's duties as a king - not wanting to employ double standards. In which case, He (as the king) has to show consistency as per what happened earlier.

But Star Sita's mahaan-ness goes above and beyond everything else in this show - perhaps even Ram's raj dharma. So...

I have read somewhere many days ago that Ram also entered the flames on which Sita was giving her test of fire. There is the high possibility of Star Ram entering fire to save Star Sita !!! 🤢 I don't believe that story at all !! 🤢

If CVs are aware of this story, I won't be surprised if it turns out to be portrayed the way you have described!!

Anything is possible now!

1. Agnipariksha not happening AT ALL - and no mention of the same

2. Ram undergoing Agnipariksha...in Treta Yuga - you know, for the sake of portraying 21st century standards of gender equality

3. Ram refusing Sita for Agnipariksha - despite her wish to do so

4. The above story of Ram entering fire to save Sita

Whatever it be, I'm sure CVs will go beyond everything and portray it way beyond our wildest imaginations!! 😆

No 1 is not possible. Loop closure. Janaka said it. It will happen.

2 also is quite possible. Twin fires or 😉

4 also 😆😆
