The boy who acted as Lava went into the movie field and later played the role of Lakshmana in the Telugu Sampoorna Ramayanam movie; his anger was veryyy cute in there (Shobhan Baby played Rama (once again, he was very average in the divine role of Ramji and Jayaprada played Sita Ma, she was pretty good)! I'll try to post a vid of that movie with him in it.😃The two kids (middle aged adults now😆) met for the first time after the completion of the movie a few years ago only....imagine, this movie was the first ever color movie in the Telugu movie industry!😲But yeah, the Ayodhya palace is really beautiful and so is the Swarna Vigraha of Sitaji.
Thanks for the info Lali, its really interesting... I 've actually seen the Sampurna Ramayanam movie on tv a couple of times; never would've thought thats what Lakshman looked like as a kid though 😲 And I agree, Jayaprada did a good job... she has the "olden days" look, she even portrayed Sita in a small Hindi movie mid-90s if I'm not mistaken... But from what you've exposed me to, this LavKush movie was a remarkable effort too... thanks again!
