Don't you know? This is Sita's Ramayan, which apparently makes Ram a secondary character. 🤔 Not my words, they were spoken by the CVs themselves.

One thing that really irked me is the comparison of 'satitvas' of Sita and Mandodari by Kaikesi. By showcasing this comparison, CVs have actually belittled Mandodari's strength of character, IMO. She is one of the PanchKanyas, for heaven's sake! 😳 They both had their own individuality!

Keeping aside the fact that we worship Sita Ma, can their satitvas ever be compared? The CVs who keep promoting women empowerment, rights, etc, totally ignored this one! 😵 Even for the sake of pushing the story ahead, this was just not the way to do it. IMO.

I am not getting this
Why few in this Thread keep saying
that Ram was called secondary character by CV's😆😆
And this is not the first time I am seeing this being mentioned
and it's not just one person either
Can they show the proof
Neither Anirudhji nor Nikhil Sinha or the writer said so 😛
That was just an immature reply(to a fan) by the person
handling SKR twitter handle
He handles many show's twitter handles and he is not part of team SKR
CV's are one who creates the show
not the one who handles the SM page of the show
spreading rumors and stressing it time and again,what's the point
Calling DP as a writer, when he is just the adviser
Mentioning SKR handle as CV's
(anyone who followed that handle will know how they usually reply🤢)
If u don't have the right info don't mislead forum members
If u really want to mention then say it as SKR handle or officile handle
Devdutt Pattanaik is not the writer of SKR either(atleast not till now😆😆)
but just an Adviser

PS:This post is only for the ones who mentioned
twitter SKR handle as CV's and DP as SKR writer

@ Mano,

Devdutt Patnaik may or may not be a writer, but he is part of the SKR team certainly. As an adviser, he is part of the CVs. Anyone who follows his writings can tell that he has issues with Ram's character. He even wrote an article about Ram being a misogynist.


As far as Ram being a secondary character, even if the comment was made by the official twitter handle of SKR, they represent SKR and thus, whatever they say will be taken as the word of CVs, and if it's wrong then CVs should speak out against it and state that Ram is just as equal to the story as Sita is.


But from the very beginning, CVs have been making statements that this show will be about Sita's journey and it will be Ramayan through Sita's eyes. CVs clearly stated that so many versions of Ramayana (including Valmiki) are written through Ram's POV in which Sita is secondary character, and theirs will be the opposite.

By stating that theirs will be the opposite, they are directly saying that this show is Sita's POV in which Ram is secondary character.

First of all, Ramayana by Valmiki is not from Ram's POV. It's not from anyone's POV and covers the stories of many characters. Also, Ramayana does not simply mean "Rama's journey". It also means "Sita's journey" because Ramaa is another name for Sita. Valmiki himself described the epic he wrote as being Sita's story just as much as Ram's by saying "Sitayah Charitam Mahaan".

Despite CVs' continuous statements that the character of Sita has been overlooked of late, Valmiki Ramayana does explain Sita's story just as much as Ram's post-haran. It describes in minute detail what happened to Sita after Ravan brought her to Lanka. There really is nothing open to interpretation, because it's already written so clearly.

So if Valmiki Ramayana, which is supposedly from Ram's POV, describes Sita's story in detail, why cannot SKR, which is supposedly from Sita's POV, describe Ram's story post-haran?

CVs' belief that Ram is a secondary character in their show is made very clear so far. There has not been a glimpse of Ram since Sita haran. Why? Is Ravan more important in Sita's life that they'd rather show the Lankans than show what happened to Ram and Lakshman upon them finding the ashram empty?

CVs have continuously claimed that this is Siya Ke Ram, and thus it is Sita's story. She is the main protagonist, and everyone else including Ram is a supporting character. The dialogues they give Sita (many of which are Ram's in the original epic), they way they have characterized her, often by pushing Ram to the sidelines, proves that to them, Ram is a secondary character.

Utkarsh Naithani himself in his tweets keeps saying this is Sita's story and they are focusing on Sita's pain. If Ram was an equally respected character, they'd be able to focus on both of them equally. They'd be able to show both their stories as parallels. It has been done before. It's not that difficult.

The fact that they are not doing that proves that in Sita's Ramayana, Ram is a supporting character.

Do not question us for making such comments. It is evidenced by the CVs themselves, not only through their interviews and tweets, but also in the storytelling of the show.

So anything the twitter handle says will be mentioned as CV's
Great!
the CV's should stop making shows and give explanation for each tweets
That's great too
I have nothing more to say🤣

CV's just said Sita's POV view
And it's about her Ram
well one will see only what they want to see

Just one more thing I wanted to add
I didn't ask u, what u think about the importance of Ram in SKR
Or ur reasoning that he has not been shown for few eps so he is secondary
I just asked for the fact that CV's mentioning about Ram as secondary
well but for u twitter handle and CV's are same
So I can understand

@ramkijanaki
I'm not very familiar with the issue that's going on, but I agree with you to this that whether or not explicitly said Ram's character does appear secondary here.

But what I want to say is, I kind of don't agree that Dr.Pattanaik has any issues with his character. I read his book The book of Ram and trust me it's one of his best works. He in fact, in that book tried to explain Ram's decision of abandoning Queen Sita saying that he never abandoned his wife, ( it was a full chapter)

I infact never found him biased towards any God in his writings. He states facts and tries to tell their symbolic meaning.

I doubt that Twitter handle is even authentic or not
If they r really the official handle
Then why they give poles saying who is a better Archer Karna or Arjun 😆
If it's SKR handle then why Ram was not there ? 🤔

When SKR got nominations in SPA
The so called official handle instead of asking for votes they promoted creations competition 😕😆

Not a single off screen pic of the cast
Forget it , even their DP is a fan made edit 🤣

They call Ram as side character but their banner has RAM not Sita 😕🤔

Bottom line even if they r official, they r very immature, so instead of talking about them, it's better to talk to the real CVs who r very much activite on social media...

Even yesterday UN tweeted about Ram / Ashish so his character holds some importance that's why this grace I guess ...

Personally I feel they are giving Ram's story but their story telling is from Sita's pov
Let's be patient
They are going in flashback to show Ram.. Ravan has sent his spies to get info of Ram... let's see how they have to show...

@Mano
See First thing Is Siya Ke Ram is A mythological Show , its Ramayana , its a true story , so it should be kept different from normal Fiction shows . I can understand showing some scenes taking into account the creative liberty of writing Team , but as long as it doesnt interferes badly with the plot.

If even the Writers havent said themeselves that Ram is secondary in the show , It can very clearly seen that Ram's Role is being Sidelined , Sita's overglorification is way too much , in those scenes even where Her role was not there .

To quote a few Blatant Distortions

1. Introduction of Character Sugni , there is no reference of Her in any Version of Ramayana

2. Un-necessary Sita Lakshman arguments , demeaned both their characters

3. Showing Rama mute spectator and Sita Speaking up in each event

4. During exile Preparation , showing Sita helping Ram with Dressing UP whereas it was the other way around , It was seeta who had no idea how to dress in vanvaas clothes

5. Showing Sita trying to commit suicide in front of lakshman , not mentioned anywhere

6. Sita asking Shrupnakha to kill her as revenge , again not mentioned anywhere

7. Showing shatrughan beating manthara and bharat supporting him , infact it was bharat who stopped him from doing so

8. Sita arguing with Ram for killing innocent asurs , where as there was no innocent asur in the forest

9. Ruma accepting vali as her husband and horrendous Timeline errors in kishkindha scenes


The younger Generation learns from what they see , Its not at all appropriate to feed them the wrong information about their own epics.
In the name of Sita's POV , the plot is already butchered

So Yes , It better the CV's dont make such Shows


SKR started off very promising , but lost direction mid way
