Meghnad will be forever known as 'Meghnad' in this show. As the title of 'Indrajeet' belongs to Raavan. At least, that's what the CVs believe, I suppose.

Also, in the epic, Vibhishan is able to recognize Sita as an avataar of Maha Lakshmi, right? Did he see her divine form here, in the show?

Guys in of the version I read and also heard from my elders (grand parents) that Sita was so averted with Ravan that she never used to see him or talk to him directly but whatever she had to say, she used to hold a grass in front of her and used to address that grass. Sorry I am not aware of the author of this version. Here our Sita is directly giving lectures to Ravan.

first of all, I think 'Shakthi weapon' must be folklore. because indrajit never made lakshman alone to fall in unconscious. He made Ram Lakshman to fall unconscious two times (first time naagpash and second time bramastra).Raavan attacked Lakshman by A weapon made by Maya, that not mentioned as Shakthi Weapon in Ramayana. so I need citation from Ramayana to confirm who used Shakthi Weapon.

The spear was probably called Shakti as it was a very powerful spear. Valmiki doesn't give that spear a name.

Thanks for sharing the info on the Spear

I also like how it was compared to the Sound of Indra's Thunder

Lakshman too had used Indrastra , and Made it even more powerful by chanting a powerful mantra , and used it to slay Indrajit

He simply said, "if I have dutifully served Shri Rama, and if I am truly his brother, then this missile will not come back without slaying Indrajit", after which he released the missile. Obviously, the missile found it's target.
