Aww, that's a pity, hun, I was really liking the HQ pics you were posting from Gemini TV! I do hope the channel puts them back up, or that you find another one, but I'm looking forward to the Meghan pics more than the Dhriti ones anyway so we'll wait.
And no, that Vishnu actor is not Arun Govil...I remember someone telling me that Arunji did not want to be dyed blue, so that used another actor...it's a fact which really ticks me off, lol. I did not like this Vishnu actor because he was expressionless and toneless, especially compared to Arunji, whose voice and expressions were some of the best aspects of his acting. They did not make Ram blue, though Ram and Krishna were also supposed to be dark-hued unlike how so many mythos portray them, so they could have just made Arunji Vishnu without dyeing him, like Nitish from Vishnu Puraan. He too wasn't blue even as Vishnu.
Looking forward to those RSR/ASR sigs from you!😃
I know! I was so super duper ecstatic when I finally found a way to get HQ vids of JSK, but then they took it away! And the Rupashi Bangla streaming isn't really that HQ either. It's workable I guess. Better than the youtube stuff we have. Now it seems like the Meghan stuff is months away. Maybe a year. Dhriti
just got introduced.
Dude! I know! The JSK Vishnu wasn't died and I still loved him so much! And I always thought that the blue complexion of Krishna and Vishnu were more metaphorical. There's this song in marathi where Krishna asks Yashoda maiya why she, Nand Baba, Balram and all others are so fair, but he is so dark. Then she tells him that he isn't dark, but simply "sawala" like the evening sky.
And I don't want to sound superficial, but the actor who played Vishnu wasn't really, well, handsome. Of course, the acting and tone is a major factor, but looks do help. Arunji had all three.
