Thanks for the update!
I saw the episode. A couple of things puzzled me about Jatayu's funeral. They wanted to make it more detailed, fine, but Rama is only known to have threatened Varuna when he wanted to make the bridge to Lanka. Here, they showed him threatening Saraswati when she didn't show up so that Jatayu's remains could be immersed. Since in that geography, Saraswati didn't exist, couldn't they have used the nearest river? Also, them showing Rama threatening rivers whenever they don't do his bidding makes the depiction rather bizzare - this is assuming that one of the Ramayans that is cited actually has it, and Sagar Pictures didn't just pull it out of thin air.
Also, Jatayu was a vulture. How did his remains have peacock feathers? 🤪
The Sabari scene - was it really necessary to show Lakshman disgusted at the fruits being already bitten? Actually, the way they showed it was like they had been cut w/ a knife, rather than bitten. Actually, this is one story that I don't like, since it promotes an unhygienic approach towards eating, and so I wouldn't have held it against Lakshman even if he did react that way. But does anyone know of any account where Lakshman reacted that way?
