What people want to see is accurate characterisation of the people in the story. You don’t have to be graphic to establish that but that would be to much to understand for your retarded brain

Ravana is indeed lustful towards Sita. He gives her two months to accept him, threatening to have her killed and cooked for his breakfast if she continues to reject him. He also arrogantly proclaims that Rama is no match for his power and prowess. Sita places a blade of grass between them and makes it clear that there can be no comparison between Rama and Ravana.
She refuses to even regard Ravana as worthy of comparison with Rama, likening Rama to a mighty elephant and Ravana to a hare.
She further tells him that she can reduce him to ashes, but she restrains herself because Rama has given her no such command and she wishes to preserve her austerities.

If the reason behind Sita's abduction in the Ramayana is given as Ravana's revenge and not his lust, as has been written by Valmiki and Tulsidas, then I will have serious issues with the understanding of the makers. In fact, it's not even Surpanakha who tells Ravana about Rama but Akampana. Immediately after Rama single-handedly decimates Khara, Dushana, and the 14,000 rakshasas at Janasthana, Akampana flees the battlefield. He is the very first person to reach Lanka and brief Ravana about the military wipeout. He tells Ravana to abduct Sita to counter Rama. He visits Maricha who counsels him against it and he returns to Lanka. Later comes Surpanakha, who lies to Ravana, claiming that her disfigurement happened solely because she attempted to abduct Sita to bring her to Lanka as a worthy queen for him. Ravana in fact behaves as if he is not already aware of the military wipeout. As Surpanakha extols Sita's grace, describing her as more radiant than any celestial being with her complexion of heated gold and slender waist, Ravana’s mind becomes completely consumed by infatuation and desire. In Sarga 34 of the Aranyakanda, Verse 19–20, she says "To whom Sita becomes a wife and around whom she gladly throws her arms after such a marriage, he lives more grandly than Indra in all the worlds. She is a highly gracious lady, unequalled by her appearance, and she will become a seemly wife of yours." It's then that he visits Maricha for the second time and threatens him with death if the orders are not complied with.
What this retard here is calling mello drama is actually emotion, bonding and betrayal. Dashraths curse is to die of putra moh how are you going to brush overall that yet have the exile be the reason of his death. RETARDS
#RamayanaMovie post full watch.
In short, I'm looking forward to part 2.
What was a massive relief to the senses is the sharp noticeable absence of melodrama. Every time I braced for drama the take was crisp. Huge plus.
I don't have the eye for VFX as my son has, some shorts feel "jumpy". But then my son is a fan of studio Ghibli where a 15 second crowd scene took a year to draw and I respect the opinion of people with such a, sharp eye. Son found VFX lazy.
Ranbir Kapoor is a good actor. For someone who détests Bollywood in general to watch a powerful protagonist play his role with such measure was a pleasant surprise. Actually not. I've seen a few films of his. He's a very good actor knows his craft and less is fortunately more.
If you think the way Ravan was depicted is a Glorification, I repeat, you're seriously gross within. There is enough and more in his intention back story and attitude that makes him thoroughly despicable.
Also why would anyone want a pansy Ravan as opponent of Ram. The battle to come is Truth over Evil-Darkness. Not truth over mischief. If you see grandeur in that great evil you're sick.
Last, the Epic has not been trifled with. At all. There is especially no deliberate disrespect. You've got to nitpick like a painful aunty to think that.
We stayed on till the end credits rolled as did many in the hall and again the elderly, more mature than ideology camp based pontificators who opine without seeing, soaked in the verses chanted.
Ye hai right wing ke bhadwe
Beautiful English, Empty argument.
Valmiki’s Ramayana has lived for thousands of years through retellings, folk versions, regional versions, plays, TV serials and films, each one different from the last. It did not survive because gatekeepers like you protected it.
You are upset that a film did not adapt the Itihasa exactly the way you wanted it to, so you have invented a crime called subversion, and a villain called Itihasic liberalism
You are turning a film into a loyalty test. You expect that every artist pass your ideological purity check before he is allowed to touch our stories, That is not Hindutva. That is insecurity dressed up as dharma
You do not want cinema to respect Itihasa. You want cinema to obey you
When you can convey the emotions of your story the visual mediocrity becomes inconsequential. That’s why even with such poor visuals the actors were treated like god during the initial telecast but it’s hard for slop enjoyers to understand that
“The Ramayana belongs to no single teller” 🤡🤡🤡
Look Ramayana makers clearly mentioned that they adapted primarily story from the Valmiki's Ramayana but also take inspiration from other versions
And there are more than 300 versions of Ramayana. so, if you find any scene that doesn't satisfy your soul, it doesn't mean makers did experiment with the story. They are absolutely right from their perspective
If you really want to know the reason behind every scene, you have to read all existing versions of Ramayana
They even failed to establish the ram and Laxman bond which is so pivotal to the story. He is just always there for reasons no one knows, even when leaving for vanvaas Laxman is just going with them no dialogue no mention of his wife. He comes out as an obsessive younger brother
I was going to save this for a later date but since the topic has come out. After the disappointment that was the experience of the movie there is only one rational for me to have it be this bad and it’s that this movie is Namit’s attempt at bringing more business to his studio
Nor capability to make story so great that it could attract the western eyes which is the main objective of namit’s project. So he use the readily available mass accepting storyline, fills it with big actors and does all the VFX himself and promotes it as such.
